AGDQ

A new year has begun, which means it's time to get hype!

It is once again that time of year when Awesome Games Done Quick rolls around, and just like last year, Anna Washenko and I are here to talk about some of our top picks from the upcoming marathon.

Hello and happy Thursday, friends! As is tradition, I’m going to be leading off this Queue with a reminder that we have a few days left of Awesome Games Done Quick 2022, and if you haven’t checked it out, you should do so! Anna W. and I even wrote a piece on our favorite runs! It’s rad, wholesome, and it raises a lot of money for a good cause.

I won’t dwell on AGDQ here, though — we’re here to Queue.

The true sign of a new year is the arrival of Awesome Games Done Quick.

I realize there’s a whole h*ckin’ lot of stuff happening in the WoWverse right now, but also… It’s my favorite time of the year! Summer Games Done Quick is currently underway, and while we’re a little over halfway through, there’s still plenty on deck to love. Tomorrow and Saturday in particular have some top picks like Fire Emblem Three Houses, Breath of the Wild, and Mario 64 — but I’d suggest checking out the entire schedule for your personal favorites and tuning in. Even if you’ve never seen a speedrun, I bet you’ll have a good time (and you’ll be supporting a good cause!)

Anyhow, I could talk about GDQ forever. But this is The Queue, and it’s time to Queue things.

(As a note: The first two questions talk around the latest cinematic. Nothing is explicitly spoiled, but please do be careful if you’d like to go into the raid 100% blind!)

Today (June 23) marks the start of the annual Summer Games Done Quick event.
