I know it’s not technically December yet — but it’s close enough and you won’t have another Queue until it’s already been December for a bit, so I’m counting this. Anyhow, it’s just about December, and that’s mildly terrifying because I have no idea what happened to November. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to speed through winter as quickly as possible… but dang, life does not slow down.

Anyhow, grab yourself some December Fudge, get comfy, and join us in front of an imaginary cozy fire.

It’s Queue time.

This week, we discuss the new Christie Golden short story based in the new Dragonflight expansion, The Vow Eternal, including Wrathion’s uncertain future, the foreshadowing of trouble from the Grimtotem Tauren, and the wedding of Thalyssra and Lor’themar.

We returned to Azeroth in Dragonflight, but the Kirin Tor haven't moved Dalaran over to the Dragon Isles to assist us -- instead we'll be journeying to the capital city of Valdrakken once we get to the final leveling zone of Thaldraszus.

Having finally managed to get logged in and play some Dragonflight, one of my favorite things in the expansion so far is all the dialogue available while talking to NPCs, whether they be major figures like Wrathion or Alexstrasza or minor figures like the inn keeper at the embassy who will, if asked, explain to you why there are so many ruined buildings there.

Hearthstone patch 25.0 has just hit the live servers, and it brings a new Battlegrounds hero, Enhance-o-Mechano.

I gave it a couple hours before I gave up for the morning, and I took that opportunity to write The Queue. I have plenty of other stuff to do, so I’m not too annoyed, but Rutherford? Dude is positively seething. Look at that glare. Brr.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and then we’ll answer. I mean, what else are we gonna do right now, play cards?

The latest World of Warcraft expansion, the reasonably long-awaited Dragonflight, is now live.

A lot of things work differently in World of Warcraft Dragonflight: there's no borrowed power, no mission table, and no flying...

Get ready to board a zeppelin or boat, for today the latest World of Warcraft expansion Dragonflight has gone live!

When you read this there’ll be five hours to go until Dragonflight launches. If I’ve done my math right that is. However, I was under the impression that there’d be no math — so don’t quote me on that.

The days leading up to a new expansion launch always feel surreal to me. There’s so much to do and simultaneously nothing to do! Everything will be different in a day and we’ll have all new goals and reputations to get, so does one more loop around Zereth Mortis really matter in the grand scheme of things? Sure I may finally get the Hirukon mount, but that’ll still be there in a day, week, month, or even a year.

It does make for some good time to pop around and do things one last time before you start exclusively focusing on Dragonflight content. Maybe your next kill of the Sha of Anger will finally be the one that gives you the Heavenly Onyx Cloud Serpent!

You should definitely clean out your bags though. While I go through mine to see what sparks joy, it’s time for — The Queue.
