Blizzard Watch Podcast Uncut: BlizzCon. Beta. Battlestar Galactica.
Added 2025-11-13 21:08:47 +0000 UTCIf you're here for the preshow I hope you like trains and snow and broadway musicals, because that's what our cohosts are serving up.
Train travel can be fun and inexpensive or it can be incredibly long and expensive without much wiggle room -- but trains will get you to Broadway without having to park a car, so that's probably well worth it. Especially if you can see, if I could recommend, Death Becomes Her the musical. If you'd like you can fast forward to 31:40 to skip the preshow, but that. would. be. rude.
This week our hosts Liz and Joe were joined by Cory as the Midnight beta officially launched, with access for people who have preordered Midnight. It was a little bumpy, per usual, but we made it. We would be testing, but transmog is unavailable until next week, so it's literally unplayable. BlizzCon was announced and early bird tickets were already sold out, but you can buy full price tickets next week. (They did not actually talk about Battlestar Galactica. I was memeing).
We have a round of bad news from the other games, because NetEase pulled funding from a lot of indie studios. But it's not all bad, because Steam has an event highlighting games that feature animals, so our unplayed list just keeps getting longer.
Plus, Hearthsteel. We're trying to speak positively about this new paid currently specifically earmarked for decor, which you apparently have to buy multiples of like every other decor. So. yep. Positive.
We hope you enjoy this week's show. Thank you for your support!
