Finally. After years of NPCs taunting us with their casual leaning against walls and other structures, with patch 11.2 we finally have the ability to /lean! While slouching against a wall is cool and all SJHawk pointed out in yesterday’s queue comments that it works without a wall, effectively making players mimes! Hopefully this is not the last mime-able emote as /pullrope and /againstthewind — cue Bob Seger — would allow us to further perform mimeish (mime-like? mime-style?) feats.

It’s been a week but it’s Friday so let’s answer some fun and have some questions!

The War Within patch 11.2 is finally here, and we're already into the swing of things even before Season 3 officially launches next week.

This week patch 11.2 finally released, and we have the rundown of all the features for you, including the new World Boss, which was up this week -- surprise!

Surprise!

Look, I have no idea. But I know I’ve been playing a lot of Fallout 4 since the Fallout TV series debuted, and I know Fallout 4 is rumored to be getting a new update. This is a game that’s been around for 10 years, and it’s getting updated again.

Meanwhile, Fallout 76 is apparently getting the biggest update it’s ever received, even bigger than Wastelanders, the game that introduced human NPC’s to the game. Again, the likely cause is all the people who loved the Fallout TV show (reasonably so, it’s pretty awesome) and this has me hoping at this point that a Starborn shows up on the show so that Starfield could get some love.

Yes, I’m the only one who liked Starfield, I’m comfortable with that.

The Epic Games Store is giving away two games this week that are older, but are just launching on the Epic Games Store this week.

Patch 11.2 of The War Within started the week of August 5 and with a new season there’s a new World Boss: Reshanor the Untethered.

Sadly, this week's Hearthstone Tavern Brawl is the Heroic Brawliseum Wild.

GenCon 2025, one of the premier events in the tabletop RPG industry, just wrapped up, and -- considering that the game's only been out a few months -- there were a surprising number of announcements for Darrington Press' Daggerheart.

I’m spending this patch sitting on a bench with Lorewalker Cho with a bowl of popcorn watching the drama go down. Anyone want to join us?
