Watching Blizzard: What was that about a quiet day? (Patreon)

Yesterday we said something about a quiet day and... well... that may have been a mistake. Because today was anything but quiet. In fact, we've had patches in WoW, Hearthstone, and Diablo, plus the Destiny 2 launch hotfixes, and... more. Probably there's more. It's been a bit of a dizzying day.

Tuesday patchday!

• Entirely unannounced, patch 7.3.2 went live in WoW.
• And after the patch, a fresh set of WoW hotfixes nerfed Seat of the Triumvirate, among other things. 
• A new Hearthstone patch went live with a Hallow's End event and plenty of freebies.
• Patch 2.6.1 went live in Diablo 3, with Season 12 due to launch just after BlizzCon.

Battle.net has gotten some upgrades

• Appear offline is finally here, along with some other cool social features.
• Plus you can now gift items — from Hearthstone packs to loot boxes — from Battle.net.

We aren't a Destiny 2 blog, but...

• We can't help but be excited by the latest game in the Battle.net launcher. If you're playing today, we have some guides to help you get started.
• And back on the WoW front, the Destiny 2 launch means it's a great time to buy WoW gold.
