Just what are all of these eyes staring at, you think? Do they ever get bored? Do they have days off?

It seems like a tiring, thankless job, being an ever-staring eye in Ny’alotha.

This week on the Blizzard Watch Podcast, Matthew Rossi and Joe Perez explore the Azerite Essence update in WoW, the duplication protection feature in Hearthstone, and debate whether Malthael is really dead in the Diablo universe.

First up, I've always been of the opinion that the Legacy loot system for older raids is too restrictive.

I collect weapons.

Sooner or later, someone always suggests this one.

You may recall me being pretty excited about Animal Crossing: New Horizons last week. That hasn’t changed. I love the game. I want to spend every second playing it. I can’t believe I’m even here writing this right now when I could be in my town, saying hi to Isabelle or organizing my fruit orchard.

But instead of Queue and A(nimal Crossing), let’s have some Q&A, shall we?

G'huun is a johnny-come-lately.

Honestly, I didn't expect to like my Dark Iron Paladin.

Everyone is playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

So, true story. Back in 1995/96, I spent a year or so studying in London. It was pretty great — since it was part of a Theatre program at my college, I ended up going to something like fifty or sixty plays, including getting to see some amazing performances like Mark Rylance as Macbeth and Iain Glen as King Henry in Henry V, and I even met some cool people like Tom Stoppard and David Edgar.

But as cool as that was, I still remember with chagrin the day a family saw me out in public, ran up to me, and excitedly declared that they’d come to London to see me perform and asked me to autograph the program for the show. Confused, I looked at the program in the father’s hand, and it was for Meatloaf. Now, Meatloaf is a year older than my father and I really don’t see the resemblance, but no matter how often I demurred, they would all smile almost in unison and say You are Meatloaf, yes?

So anyway, that’s how someone out there has pictures of me with his entire family and a program to a Meatloaf concert signed I am not Meatloaf at the bottom. There was a very large expletive in that, but this is a family site and I trust you all to work it out.
