Podcasts about Warcraft

Do you remember back in vanilla WoW, when we were tasked with things like bringing a guard his lunch, or trying to find some guy's wife who was taking a while to get back, and now we're spitting in the face of god and saving the soul of the world? If you miss stories like the former, how on earth would we de-escalate from the current all-encompassing world-ending conflict to just hanging with the lads and picking peacebloom? And how would one of the archetypical villains we face fit into a less cataclysmic story?Our Lore Watch Crew Joe, Matt, and Eric, all have differing opinions on how much they'd enjoy a large or small story, as usual. Also as usual, there are a few places we go off the rails, but we always end up back on track. You know, mostly. From there they discuss the best villains of all time, then the villains from Blizzard's IPs, and what makes a villain good -- or deliciously bad.If you want even more background story, we also have a guide to every Warcraft book in chronological order (for those of you who prefer reading that way).If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

I Didn't Know I Needed Blizzcon - Ep 45 SOLO QUEUE DISCORD available at: https://discord.gg/nXQVqERcSU  Show Notes  Welcome to Episode 45! – 2:03  Let's just get to Blizzcon stuff. News – 8:03 Blizzard news is dominated by Blizzcon announcements and the follow-up announcements.  Here are the non-Warcraft announcements in order of how they affect me multiplied by their hype factor.  Then we get into the good stuff. Overwatch Reveal – 16:54 I am not an Overwatch person.  They announced a new somebody after a cool cinematic.  Don't ask me the name of the hero. Heroes of the Storm Reveal – 18:22 You can ask me the name of the new hero in HotS, it's Xal'atath!  With another on the horizon, HotS is back! Hearthstone Reveal – 23:30 Hearthstone was my entry to Blizzard games.  There is a new expansion coming soon diving back into the Black Empire.  Also, I invent my second Blizzard game in back-to-back episodes—Hearthstone Classic!  Who's with me?! Diablo Reveals – 29:10 Never really played Diablo, but with a Netflix show and an intriguing announcement of Diablo V, I'm open, or will be in 2029 when it arrives. Starcraft Reveal – 35:27 Also not a Starcraft player, but dude…did you see that cinematic?!  An open-world, story-driven shooter game just might pull me into the SC universe. Retail WoW Reveals – 49:12 All of the news related to the five remaining patches coming in Midnight. 12.2 news – 49:44 12.2.5 news – 1:02:53 12.2.7 news – 1:04:57 12.1.5 news – 1:06:04 12.1.7 news – 1:06:58 Talebound Game Mode – 1:07:12 New standalone game mode that is definitely not Plunderstorm.  Looking forward to this as a solo player! Next Remix is…Wrath! – 1:13:33 Not Shadowlands, we are heading back to Northrend to speedrun it all before the story returns to Northrend for The Last Titan. The Last Titan Teaser – 1:14:56 Slightly unexpected and thin on any details, this brief cinematic definitely teases what's on the horizon.  Giant titan robots. Warcraft III…What? – 1:22:22 An expansion for what now?  The new campaigns added to Warcraft III give us insight into the fall of Lorderon and set up the story at the opening of the next new way to play World of Warcraft… WoW Forever! – 1:28:43 Finally, we put the moniker “Classic+” to bed once and for all.  WoW Forever has enchanted a large portion of the WoW player base and this is only beta.  Launch is November 4.  So excited for this sweet spot combination of Classic and Retail, possibly greater than the sum of its parts. So, What is the Character Limit in WoW Forever? – 1:58:40 There are 52 possible combinations of race and class in WoW Forever as of the beta.  Does the character limit allow you to try them all?  At this moment, yes!  Seems the cap is 70, just like Retail. “What have you done lately?” – 2:05:18  A little bit of my bumping around in retail and switching the main back to feral druid for the rest of Midnight and beyond. Main Topic – Highlights of My Blizzcon! – 2:13:26  Talking through my own experiences with the people I met at Blizzcon! Closing Thoughts – 2:39:21 What Blizzcon meant to me.  Go figure, set the announcements and the decorations and the hype aside.  Blizzcon is about the community and the people you know or are about to know.  I fully intend to return.  And if you need to know someone at Blizzcon before you commit to going, I will be that person.  And, a couple of changes coming to the show, the kind that might make it more interesting to watch on YouTube.  Stay tuned. Outro – 2:24:51 • Thanks to Blizzard for the amazing music and sound, to OGRE for intro/outro music, my lovely and supportive wife, Podbean for hosting the show, and YOU for listening.  • Support the show at https://www.patreon.com/soloqueuewow   • Thank you to contributing patrons Andrew, Righteous Bandy, ThatSkyGuy, Cyn, Snek of Voldun, Metacognition, Jeru, Raven, Greybeard, Pasta Matt, Luch, and Rak! • And thanks to free members Max, Eddie, Bear, Friends of Wumpus, Sean, Curro, AehanNahkriin, Guardian Sandy, Alice, Don, Kamil, Eric, Wednesday, Case, TJ, Denethar, TheChampz, Michelle, Donald, AggroManagement, Brian, William, Uihu, and welcome to Bob, Matthew, Willis, Aaron, Greyborn Herc, and Taco Makes Noods! • Subscribe to the podcast at your podcast feed of choice, Apple, Spotify, and all the rest.

Dawntrail's final MSQ patch is out and the recent patch has given us a toe in the door. Runeworks, portals, Jotnar: the vocabulary is flowing heading into Evercold. We gather the Round Table once more. We look at the expansion that was and what we hope Evercold will be. Who do we want to see more of, what can they do with the Warrior of Light and which direction of the many options the plot will go. Jesse Cox wants to be punished. Preach wants to climb in that hole. Supportourbromance.com or the children wont get horse paintings.

This week discussion still heavily features the results of Blizzcon, including time spent on Warcraft 3's new Expansion (Forsaken Kingdom) and WoW Forever. Other topics include: Control: Resonant Shape of Dreams 13 Omens and a tiny bit about Star Wars

World of Warcraft: Forever is the hottest title in Blizzard's catalogue, so of course we're diving in to some of the lore of Forever in this first post-BlizzCon episode. We start with a question on the war between the Alliance and the Horde, which makes for a great excuse to recap a lot of the conflict through the whole Warcraft series. From the moment the Dark Portal opened, Orcs and Humans have had conflict -- but is that conflict truly inescapable? But that's just the start of the rabbit hole. There's Trolls and Night Elves and Stranglethorn Vale and the Forsaken, and all of them have their part to play in the lore that makes up the rich world we'll be encountering again for the first time in Forever.Then, the loremasters address the whole elf-shaped elephant in the room thing. Are the Skyborne being added really less farfetched than just plunking down Blood Elves or High Elves or whatever and calling it good? Is there even a good justification for these guys? Joe, Matt, and Eric run down the lore bedrock behind the new race.If you want even more background story, we also have a guide to every Warcraft book in chronological order (for those of you who prefer reading that way).If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

Episode #619: This week, we dive into World of Warcraft Forever and why it feels like the clearest path for Warcraft to finally make sense on Xbox. Native controller support, the classic-style world, the ROG Xbox Ally experience, and the idea of a fresh perpetual version of WoW all sparked a huge conversation about whether Blizzard is setting this up for console players.We also talk about the return of StarCraft, the new third-person direction, and why bringing that universe back could be one of the smartest moves Blizzard has made in years. If Xbox wants Blizzard to feel exciting again, Warcraft and StarCraft are the two franchises that can do it.Plus, we get into Star Wars Zero Company, turn-based strategy games, Halo Wars, Kingmakers, Control Resonant, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Dragon Wilds, Palworld, Ocarina of Time, and the absolute avalanche of games hitting right now. It's one of those weeks where the backlog is not just growing, it's actively laughing at us.We also touch on Kojima's Xbox presence, what it means for perception in Japan, Double Fine's post-Xbox moment, and whether Xbox finally has stronger leadership and accountability around its studios. Big Blizzard talk, big Xbox energy, and a whole lot of games to play.Who are the XoneBros?We are your exclusive Xbox Series X & Game Pass weekly podcast.

BlizzCon just wrapped, and so there is so much to talk about we couldn't pack it all into an hour. We spent around an hour on WoW Forever, the new Classic+ that was rumored and is now coming to fruition with a sort-of alternate history. There was a lot of Midnight news too, including Talebound, which is an upcoming alt mode a la Plunderstorm. We got a small tidbit from The Last Titan, we saw Holly Longdale's impeccable outfit -- and that was just all the WoW stuff! No wait, it wasn't. There's also going to be Undead Paladins, to tie in to both a Warcraft 3 expansion and Wrath of the Lich KingRemix, the portmanteau for which is still up in the air (I lean toward Wremix, but I've seen a few ReLiches too).There were two very long-range reveals for Diablo 5 and StarCraft, not to mention a Netflix Diablo series with no ETA at all. The Hearthstone Battlegrounds new Anomaly family and the next Overwatch season (and next hero Doctrine) release next week though, for a little balance. The Hearthstone expansion Reign of the Black Empire is a bit further off, though, slated for October.Did I forget anything? Something that a frequent guest host might find terribly exciting, like a new hero for Heroes of the Storm? Eh, probably not. I'd remember something like that.Oh! Amazons! For Diablo 4! Liz was pretty excited about that. That must've been it.If you have a few minutes, please fill out our survey to tell us what you think about the podcast.

BlizzCon 2026 handed out a StarCraft open world shooter that does not land until 2030, a Diablo 5 release window in spring 2029, and a plan to turn World of Warcraft Classic into something called World of Warcraft Forever. Frank and Squeaks were both on the floor for all of it, and they came back with announcement reactions, three hour lines, a Todd McFarlane signature, and Matt Mercer running an Overwatch tabletop game in front of 8,000 people. The Warcraft talk takes up most of the hour, and for good reason. World of Warcraft Forever adds new races, new zones, dungeons and raids to the Classic version of Azeroth, including undead paladins for the Horde, with a beta starting next Thursday ahead of a November 4 launch. Frank played the five man dungeon demo on the show floor and came out talking about how much real communication a slower pace forces back into a group, while Squeaks, who has never touched Classic, walked away planning a warlock. On the retail side, the Eclipse patch and the language Blizzard kept using about closing out twenty years of story push the two of them into a long argument about whether the next expansion ends World of Warcraft and starts World of Warcraft 2 on a modern engine. Elsewhere: Diablo 4 gets Hell's Legacy with Deckard Cain back as the storyteller, a Diablo animated series is coming to Netflix with Overwatch and Warcraft adaptations teased behind it, Overwatch introduces a vampire healer whose backstory and voice were built around the actor playing him, and Wrath of the Lich King Remix only got revealed if you sat through the deep dive panel. The crowd is the one sore spot, with Frank putting attendance near 75,000 against the 40,000 to 50,000 of past years and both hosts stuck in two and three hour lines for the store and the Darkmoon Faire. 0:00 Intro and BlizzCon 2026 First Impressions 3:36 Meeting Todd McFarlane and Watching Matt Mercer Run Overwatch 6:08 Oversold Crowds, Three Hour Lines, and a Dry BlizzCon 10:06 StarCraft Returns as an Open World Shooter 14:22 Diablo 5 in 2029, Hell's Legacy, and Deckard Cain 19:52 The Diablo Animated Series on Netflix 21:28 World of Warcraft Forever and the Classic Overhaul 29:07 Eclipse, the Titans, and the Case for World of Warcraft 2 38:12 Overwatch's Newest Hero and the Wrath Remix Reveal 41:31 Final Day Highlights, T-Pain, and the Arena Championship 48:37 Recommendations, the Patreon Statue Vote, and the Forever Guild Key takeaways World of Warcraft Forever launches November 4 with a beta starting next Thursday, adding new races, zones, dungeons and raids to Classic, plus undead paladins for the Horde. StarCraft is back as an open world shooter set 100 years after StarCraft 2, but the 2030 date landed hard in the room, and both hosts worry about a Warhammer style game with no Protoss or Zerg to play. Diablo 5 arrives spring 2029, with Hell's Legacy bridging the gap in Diablo 4 and Deckard Cain returning to bring old bosses back for another fight. The Diablo animated series at Netflix is the adaptation Frank is most confident in, with Castlevania and Cyberpunk Edgerunners as the track record, and Overwatch and Warcraft projects teased after it. Blizzard's repeated framing about the culmination of twenty years has both hosts betting the next expansion closes the current story, with Frank arguing a true sequel is the only way past a 2004 engine. Attendance was the weekend's biggest problem, with two hour waits just to enter the convention center on Saturday and three hour waits for the store and the Darkmoon Faire. "When they put that 2030 on the screen, the air went out of the room." - Frank "I got to meet my dream comic book creator. I could be gone tomorrow and I would feel like life was fulfilled." - Squeaks, on meeting Todd McFarlane "That kind of communication is peak Warcraft, and that stuff is not said in World of Warcraft today." - Frank, on the Forever dungeon demo "We are reaching the limits of what this engine can do." - Frank, on why he thinks World of Warcraft 2 has to happen "There is a blood knight in Diablo Immortal and I love the hell out of it. I named him Squeaks Belmont." - Squeaks Every story covered in this episode comes from GeekFreaksPodcast.com, the source for all news discussed on the show.

In today's Daily Fix:Ever since GTA 6's second trailer dropped more than a year ago, the internet has been trying to match up the voices to any celebrities in hopes of putting together the game's cast. Well, the internet was right about one so far: Stepeh Root has confirmed he's voicing Brian in GTA 6. Brian appears to be a friend and ally to dual protagonists Lucia and Jason, and can be seen in the nearly 30-minute-long gameplay preview that dropped a couple of weeks ago. In other news, BlizzCon 2026 did not disapoint, as Blizzard revealed new entries for Diablo, StarCraft, and Warcraft, among other titles. And finally, we may have found out what the title of Lies of P's sequel is going to be.Presented by Marvel's Wolverine. Available September 15th on PlayStation 5.

Lore Watch this week is all about what might be next for World of Warcraft which is quite apropos since we're waiting on BlizzCon. First is the predictions for what we might see in The Last Titan and beyond. The Arathi and Avaloren is one possibility, and Matt, Joe, and Eric explore how that could come to pass, either as a tentpole for the next expansion, or just a part of a patch. The Arathi makes a lot of sense, when we already know we'll see so many nostalgic beats in The Last Titan.Then we move on to the cosmology and the Titans. We've seen various circles from the cosmology chart from Chronicle represented by specific Titans -- Eonar and Nature, for instance, or Aman'thul and Order. One thing we haven't seen, though, is a Titan of the Void, or Disorder as per the Chronicle chart. What would a Titan like that look like, and how would it oppose the current Pantheon?Of course, because this is Lore Watch, one of these two responses invokes the Tacoma Narrows bridge.If you want even more background story, we also have a guide to every Warcraft book in chronological order (for those of you who prefer reading that way).If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

This week's Lore Watch kicks off with a question based on a datamined spoiler which will be revealed as we come to toward the end of patch 12.1, as we finally uncover the goal Xal'atath has been working toward since before she was besties with a nameless Shadow Priest (Mitch). As usual, her now-revealed motivations may have a knock-on effect on certain aspects of both far-ranging lore and small details of our characters' daily lives. If, of course, that datamined info comes to pass.Then we go to Magister's Terrace and the Lycaneum, which we've noticed is packed with all kinds of bookish clutter. This includes stuff that represents travel, like ships, but also a few artifacts you might not expect for a Blood Elf location, even if they are global scholars, like statuettes of Moonkin. Is this just set dressing, or is there something more significant these props are meant to signify? Or, one step further, are they foreshadowing a return to something Moonkin-y, like Elune?If you want even more background story, we also have a guide to every Warcraft book in chronological order (for those of you who prefer reading that way).If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

Anduin Wrynn's kingship — and distinct lack thereof — is the first topic this week on the Lore Watch Podcast. He's been off either having adventures or healing from those adventures for nearly his entire reign, so what could happen for Anduin to truly embrace his throne as a ruler? Joe, Matt, and Eric run down the series of events that led him here, and conjecture about his future.Then, we talk Gnomes and their inventions. Gnomish inventions tend to run the gamut from great to accidentally explodey. Even human inventions run on a bit of a sliding scale, from earth-shattering ones like the wheel to the mediocre, like the pet rock. What should the next gnomish invention be, and what could spur that inventor to create it?If you want even more background story, we also have a guide to every Warcraft book in chronological order (for those of you who prefer reading that way).If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

The very forces that underpin the World of Warcraft universe itself are the topic of this week's Lore Watch Podcast. We're all familiar with mana, from the earliest days of playing the first Mage that got absolutely destroyed by troggs outside Anvilmar. Anima is its newer, redder... cousin? How do these two things interact with each other? Are they related? Joe, Eric, and Matt take a deep dive across the leylines and into the anima pools, discussing not only the nuts and bolts of the Azeroth versions, but also the real-world inspiration for these concepts.They also take a stab at some of the other forces in Azeroth we've come into contact with, like the Chi used by Monks. Or, maybe more like a staff than a stab.If you want even more background story, we also have a guide to every Warcraft book in chronological order (for those of you who prefer reading that way).If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

This week, we're once again in the thick of San Diego Comic-Con International, chatting with filmmaker Duncan Jones about his upcoming animated adaptation of Rogue Trooper, based on the iconic 2000 AD character created by Gerry Finley-Day and Dave Gibbons. Amongst the pulsating exhibit hall, tucked inside the 2000 AD booth, we chat with Jones about his passion for Rogue Trooper, how it ties thematically into his other movies (Moon, Source Code, Warcraft), and why animation was the only medium that could satisfy his creative needs. Also, we enlist our friend Bryan Young (of B and B Movie Reviews) to detail his excruciating saga in the infamous Hall H line and whether his nearly 48 hours of waiting resulted in a satisfying Marvel Studios presentation. You've undoubtedly heard horror stories, but until you've been inside it, you can't understand the challenge and appeal of Hall H. We're grateful to receive Bryan Young's story of pure geek family. What is the value of meat? The question rattles throughout Rogue Trooper, Moon, and Hall H. When humanity is seen as disposable by our corporate overlords, we must make ourselves impossible to ignore and flaunt a raging self-worth. While Rogue Trooper begins its festival circuit, we await a release date. To keep up to date on the film, make sure you're following Duncan Jones on Bluesky. Purchase Rogue Trooper comics from your local comic book shop, or find them on the 2000 AD website.
