Blizzard Watch Podcast

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.

Blizzard Watch writer Cory Taylor joins us as we discuss Blizzard’s announcement on how they will make it easier to get your weekly gear cache in the upcoming WoW expansion, Warcraft Rumble’s Season 7 content delay, Hearthstone’s ban of the most adorable card ever, Overwatch 2’s Summer Games uncharacteristically quiet launch, and how to get the new Owl mount in WoW.

Join us as we discuss how the new features coming with Diablo 4 Season 5 don’t make a compelling argument to play it on a Seasonal realm over an Eternal realm, the bad luck protection with WoW’s Midsummer Fire Festival rare drops, and when we think The War Within prematch will drop this summer.

Join us as we discuss struggling with stepping away from a beloved game, Hearthstone’s new tropical vacation themed expansion, and why Diablo 4 should have an Adventure Mode.

Join us as we discuss the nerfs to DPS trinkets for tanks and healers in The War Within, the potential trouble with the new Mythic+ dungeon affixes, the mercenaries, pets, and new Spiritborn class coming to Diablo 4, as well as our highlights from this year’s Summer Game Fest.

Join us as we discuss the launch of The War Within beta, Diablo 4’s anniversary event, and why we need every single murloc floatie offered in WoW’s June Trading Post.
