The Queue: Peak holiday video game levels
by Mitch on December 16, 2021 at 12:00pm
Happy Thursday, folks! It’s holiday season and… well, right now it’s actually in the 60s and very windy so it doesn’t exactly feel like mid-December, but hey, it’s still technically that time of year.
Coincidentally, a lot of today’s questions are themed around the holidays! So let’s dive in, shall we?
Queuedolph, with your nose so bright, won’t you guide my Queue tonight (in some parts of the world)?

The Queue: The sun hat is essential

Kassandra wouldn’t be caught dead going on vacation without it.
Y’all, the new Odyssey DLC is wild. It really puts a spotlight on Kassandra’s role in the greater lore of the franchise and gives me hope that they might eventually reveal she’s not as dead as we think she is. But even if they don’t, it’s still a really cool little DLC. I’ll be trying the Valhalla one next, will report on that next chance I get.
It’s the Queue. I am so very tired. It’s -29 C outside my house today and it’s gonna get colder all week.

The Queue: You should play this game
by Anna Bell on December 14, 2021 at 12:00pm
Did you ever recommend a game a whole lot to (almost) literally everyone, and then they immediately turn around and recommend a different game to you, but you’re already busy playing the game you keep telling (almost) literally everyone to play that you really don’t want to play their game? And yes, even the standalone content, like the soundtrack, is superb to the extent it gives you frisson chills, and gives you a real sense of the game to boot? And then everyone else is like, “but Bugsnax is so fun!” and you’re just real tired all of a sudden?
This is The Queue, where you ask us questions, and you should definitely play The Long Dark, and then maybe we’ll answer.
