This week, the new Hearthstone expansion announcement, WoW Classic Season of Mastery launch, and WoW's 17th anniversary are overshadowed by the latest round of allegations against Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick.

When transmog was introduced to World of Warcraft back in Cataclysm's patch 4.3, we were told that they were going to take it slow and cautiously and keep things restricted to start with.

In tabletop role playing, a system is the codified rule set used to represent the world and the player's experiences of it. Dungeons and Dragons uses a system based around a d20 dice roll, with modifiers that change the possible spread of numbers you can successfully roll, and other dice to represent things like the damage dealt to characters or monsters in the game's combat system.

I mean I’m here writing the Queue, so it could be Monday… But I feel like I would’ve remembered a weekend in between my last Queue and this one… how very curious.

While I get to the bottom of this, it’s time for — The Queue.

We know that the Season of Mastery makes some changes to the WoW Classic formula, and those changes are aimed at a faster paced leveling experience and a more challenging feel to raid encounters that players basically blew through when WoW Classic dropped in 2019.

I am ridiculously happy that there's a new Mass Effect game coming.

Diablo Immortal is expected to land on mobile devices worldwide in the first half of 2022.

No, you are obsessively staring at this Mass Effect teaser image trying to pick out every possible ounce of information about the next Mass Effect game.

One of the biggest pitfalls for novice game masters of any tabletop RPG is knowing how and when to say no to players.

Yesterday, I wrote a couple of posts about WoW Classic and the Season of Mastery, went downstairs and fed my cats and made breakfast for my wife, and looked outside at the snow that’s literally everywhere because I live in Edmonton, which becomes Hoth in winter. Then I decided to sleep, because I’d written a bunch and I was tired and I figured it would be a nice, quiet day on the site and I needed some catch up sleep pretty badly.

So yeah. That’ll learn me. I’m never sleeping again.
