Sometimes, even with the power of Spirit City life is inherently distracting. It doesn’t help when someone accidentally activates your trap card and all of a sudden you’re forced to watch Diana Damrau sing the Queen of the Night Aria from The Magic Flute. See, the music itself is stellar and obviously a lofty goal for any soprano, but the performance itself is what truly elevates the piece. The music is sweet and light, and full of technical runs, but the words — as bolstered by the staging and costuming and acting — show an absolutely unhinged woman laughing at the thought of forcing her daughter to murder a priest. The daughter is beside herself, weeping, clutching a dagger, while this woman swears vengeance, claims she is wronged, and giggles. It’s goosebumps inducing.

I feel like I'm pushing my luck by announcing short maintenance for three weeks in a row — particularly since Mists of Pandaria Classic just launched last night, and was having some server stability issues.

It's hard to top the question asked in Mists of Pandaria's initial release trailer, and Taran Zhu's instantly iconic, "why do we fight" was core both to the narrative of that expansion and hit the hearts of many a World of Warcraft enthusiast.

Happy Monday, Watchers!

The local fair is in town! By the time you’ve read this, I’ll have already been on three different days and seen the sights, been to concerts, and eaten terrible(wonderful) food.

So far, I’ve had a grilled cheese and bacon sandwich made out of a maple donut, a street corn-covered jumbo hot dog, giant deep-fried cheese curds, and there are still so many more days to try the avocado ice cream and ramen-rrito and every other wonderful(awful) food crime.

While I try and figure out if deep fried pop-tarts are worth it, it’s time for — The Queue!

This week we continue our adventure of Daggerheart, as our crew becomes the first to enter the towering spire that is the Motherboard.

The newest iteration of WoW Classic will be Mists of Pandaria Classic and it launches later this summer, with a release date on July 21, 2025 at 3PM pacific time.

I usually write this intro about what's sort of going on in my life at any given time.

Alas, the Steam summer sale has come and gone and we are in the doldrums of most summer releases.

In the past few months we have seen a steady stream of updates on the imminent launch of Player Housing in World of Warcraft, with the latest answering many of the most commonly asked questions about Neighborhoods.
