Blizzard Watch Podcast: Transmog is not free, and other gamescom disappointments
🕑 Added 2025-08-28 20:56:44 +0000 UTCThis week's behind the scenes shows begin and end with Matt talking about dinosaurs. It's kind of a full circle sort of thing. They also talked about the new Osiris Reborn, which is from the Expanse series and was shown off quite extensively at gamescom. There was also a lot of discussion about TTRPGs, both the ones Hasbro has an iron fist on and all the others. If you'd like to skip the preshow, you can roll it forward to 33:33.
Midnight and gamescom were the core topic of this week's Blizzard Watch Podcast. A big part of the discussion centered on just how odd -- and, frankly, frustrating -- the way the information disseminated throughout the convention. Events posted late, misinformation, and illogical choices plagued the newest expansion's reveal. We're still excited for Player Housing, but there could be more we're excited about just waiting on some cutting room floor. But, as they note, the beta is coming soon -- you can sign up now, as a matter of fact. We discussed the new Demon Hunter spec, the new battleground, and UI improvements which may or may not topple BigWigs after 20 long years (though we doubt it a little).
Plus, our writer Flan joined the crew to talk about his experiences on the Legion Remix PTR. Runas is just as depressing in 2025, by the way.
As always, we truly appreciate your support, and we hope you enjoy the show.
