Midnight releases into early access later this week, and then full release next week, so for now the crew is pretty much just in waiting mode. Even if you didn't get early access, you can still get into the action because the pre-patch event will go on until the very last minute. In the meantime, there's also the Outland Cup, and the new Trading Post (which, as always, our cohosts have a ton of opinions about).

Plus, the hosts would like to nap, which I can support, but they'd also like to nap while mounted and driving around which seems a little irresponsible.

Oh, and by the way, there's going to be an Overwatch mobile game. Yeah, that was pretty much our reaction too.

There's always a lot of news to discuss, but this week there was specifically a lot of news to discuss for all the very best Diablo games: Diablo 2, Diablo 4, Diablo Immortal, end of list, apparently. All three of those games are going to have a new Warlock class, with Diablo 2 getting it immediately, the others slightly later. This is the first new class for Diablo 2 in 20 years, and the second one coming with Diablo 4's upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion (the other being Paladins).

There was also a lot to discuss in WoW, as the Lunar Festival began, with zero holiday decor in sight. We don't think a fish tank is too much to ask. Speaking of cute disappointments, Hearthstone released another of those gatcha pets for even more money than before and it has us nostalgic for the days of horse armor. Seriously.

And since Cory was joining us, there was a little spot of Heroes of the Storm hopium, which included a new patch and skins.

This week we have a lot to say about the Overwatch (not two!) yearly overview. Much of it is negative, and a lot of it is tinged with incredulity, like the moment Liz found out there are actually two different billionaire nepo babies among the heroes. Some is positive, but most of the crew is not all that optimistic. The Hearthstone announcements last week were also new and exciting and interesting, but because Hearthstone is so consistent in what they deliver, it's just par for the course: three new expansions, three new minisets, Year of the Scarab. You know em, you love em.

And speaking of love, Love is in the Air in WoW, and our cohosts are, as always, transmog-motivated. Also, cute mount motivated. All the true endgames, we suppose!
