Blizzard Watch Podcast

Join us as we discuss the latest Race to World First news (as of the recording on Tuesday), if/when Blizzard will announce Mists of Pandaria Classic servers, the agony and the ecstasy of Delves, the bittersweet upcoming arrival of Arcane Season 2, and why we are convinced that the black blood of earth in WoW is cranberry flavored.

Join us as we discuss the content rolling out with the launch of Season 1 in The War Within, what we know about patch 11.0.5 and it’s connection to the 20th anniversary of WoW, the new Hearthstone mini-set which takes puns to a whole new level, and how the upcoming PlayStation 5 Pro looks shiny, but the price tag…in this economy??

Join us as we discuss the best new features in The War Within.

Join us as we discuss Blizzard’s move to slow down leveling in The War Within, how much we are enjoying the new underground zones, more details about Diablo 4’s upcoming Mercenaries system, and our favorite titles coming out of Gamescom including the aptly titled, Date Everything.

Join us as we discuss the launch of The War Within early access, the new Alleria animated short, the end of our beloved WoW: Remix (for now), the mercenaries coming to Diablo 4, and the release date of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Site writer Phil Ulrich joins as we discuss what’s involved, and not involved, in The War Within’s upcoming early access, the balance changes that arrived with patch 11.0.2, and Diablo 4 offering WoW-themed transmog as well as a Sparklepon— uh Celestial Steed.

Special guests Cory Taylor and Liz Patt join us as we discuss how the story of the newest War Within cinematic feels a little too familiar, where exactly Warcraft Rumble went wrong, and how the Radiant Echoes pre-patch event feels like we’re all doing the time warp again (spoiler: it’s just a jump to the left.) To prove we aren’t all doom and gloom and actually love games (no really), we also cover the pleasant surprises in Diablo 4 Season 5, the potential of the new dev team dedicated to working on AA games using Blizzard properties, and how Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 8 will be giving us the Old God-infused baked goods we didn’t know we needed in our lives.

Join as we discuss the problematic mob tagging, expensive rewards, and inconvenient boss timers of The War Within Radiant Echoes pre-patch event.

Join as we discuss the launch of The War Within expansion pre-patch this week including the extended maintenance and weird patch day bugs.

Join as we discuss the expansion pre-patch arriving next week including the accelerated XP curve, changes to transmog, and the much-anticipated Warbands feature for all your alt-management needs.
