They explain the stages of Alzheimer’s and how it develops over time.

Hey Folks! This week we are down a Grace and Kodra but get back an Ammo. We start off with a topic that got bumped from last week about how much of a difference music makes in games. Specifically, we talk a bit about Star Citizen getting music but also talk about how important good audio queues are. From there Bel shares his early experiences with Avowed a game by Obsidian that is very much Elder Scrolls if you removed the awkward simulationist tendencies. Ash and Bel talk a bit about the upcoming Legacy of Phrecia event in Path of Exile now that all Nineteen Ascendancies have been fully spoiled. We also talked a bit about the upcoming release of Monster Hunter Wilds and Ammo offering custom Palico commissions. Ash touches on Soulstone Survivors a bit and then we close out the show with a discussion about the Dungeon Crawler Carl series of books and why Bel and Thalen love them so much.

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are down an Ash this week and start the show down a Kodra who slips in while we record. This week we talk about the press tour for Last Epoch Season 2 and some of the new information that came out on a podcast with Raxxanterax and Zizaran. From there we talk about the fatal wound that is the upcoming Season 8 in Diablo IV because Season 7 was apparently too fun and Blizzard cannot stomach that. Tam shares his experiences with Megamek an archaic way of playing Battletech Tabletop online. From there we dive into our further experiences with Monster Hunter Wilds as Bel has finished all of the story content and the majority of folks have hit the credit roll that transitions to High Rank play.

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are down our West Coast contingent this week but carried forth with a relatively short show. Bel talks a bit about the Anti Sanctum Alliance and how it seems to have actually made an impact at least in the pricing of Sanctum Tomes in the Legacy of Phrecia event. From there Thalen shares his experiences with The Roottrees Are Dead, which is a logic puzzle spiritual successor to games like Return of the Obra Dinn. We move on to talking a bit about Monster Hunter Wilds and our early experiences so far. We’ve needed some Palico shenanigans to help us cope with our present dystopia. Last week we got a new feature trailer for the upcoming Last Epoch Cycle 2 coming April 2nd. We spend a bit of time talking about what has been revealed for the new features and how it appears like the long wait has been worth it.

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! This week we are down an Ammo which throws Ash off a bit. We start off with a discussion about the changes to the death system and multiplayer in Windblown. From there we talk about the most recent updates to Utopia Must Fall. Citizen Sleeper 2 has been released and Tam shares some of his early thoughts. Dwarven Realms Season 3 is going on and the game continues to get more polished over time. Bel and Grace talk about the Lunar Awakening event and how it represents this perfect example of why Blizzard’s Design Ethos makes the game less fun. Path of Exile has an upcoming Phrecia event with 19 new Ascendancies and we talk about the four that have been spoiled so far. Grace talks about Spirit Swap which is Lo-Fi Beats to Match Three To. Kodra has had a bit of a revival of Ultimate Chicken Horse in his house as his son gets super into it.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! This week we started with a single topic… and by the time we were finished ended up having to bump half of the assembled topics to next week in order to keep the runtime down. We start off with Bel talking about the bad news for Path of Exile players, and how there is no new league around the corner. He also talks a bit about getting sucked into the private league that Pohx created which has capped out at 20,000 players. From there Grace talks a bit about playing Heroes of Hammerwatch II and enjoying that. Kodra shares his thoughts about the Diablo IV Campaign thus far as he still is effectively in the first act. Grace and Ash share their experiences with Coridden a more narrative-driven action roleplaying game. Finally, Kodra and Tam talk about their experiences playing Battletech and how Kodra is coming around to the idea of playing games for fun, rather than simply optimizing the strategy for winning. Topics Discussed Path of Exile League Months Away Pohx League Heroes of Hammerwatch II Kodra’s Diablo 4 Thoughts Coridden Battletech - A Game of Awesome Moments…

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are down a Tam this week but start off the show talking a bit about our various mental states with the happenings going on out in the world. From there Grace talks about Rusty’s Retirement a delightful idle game that has a lot of the same functionality as Stardew Valley but runs in a small window at the bottom of your monitor. From there we talk about Diablo IV Season 7 and how it is quite possibly the best D4 season ever… that no one is really giving much fanfare. We talk a bit about how the streamers have seemingly abandoned the game. Kodra shares with us the process of resolving combat in the Battletech tabletop game from the 80s… giving Thalen and Bel flashbacks in a bad way. Finally, Ash has been playing Sonic Frontiers and talks about it actually being a really good open-world Sonic game. Topics Discussed Screaming Goats Rusty’s Retirement Diablo IV Season 7 Season of Witchcraft Battletech is obtuse Resolving Combat Sonic Frontiers Actually Good…

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! Welcome to our actual first show of the year since we did Games of the Year shows for the last two weeks. We start off with being shocked that the Nintendo Switch 2 leaks and rumors were actually real. From there we talk about the Path of Exile II Patch 0.1.1 information, Elon Musk’s being panned by the community and his subsequent Meltdown, and the frustrations of playing multiplayer. We also weave in a bit of discussion about Last Epoch as several of us are playing that again. Tam and Kodra spent some time playing Elden Ring using the Multiplayer mod. Tam also talks a bit about 1000xRESIST, and Ash shares some of his recent experiences playing Grim Dawn and preparing for the expansion this year.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! We have a bit of a long show because we wound up cramming a few games that we missed in the first show into this list. We round out our yearly tradition with the second part of our Games of the Year show. I am once again so glad that we decided a few years ago to start doing these on multiple nights because this year would have been a four-hour-long epic marathon of recording.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! It is that time again when we pull together our list of favorite games from 2024. In theory, we each get three primary choices and an almost unlimited number of honorable mentions… which causes us to divide the show into two packed episodes. In this case, we have 36 games on the list divided into two shows of roughly 18 games.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, and Tamrielo Hey Folks! We are back this week and only actually down one person which seems great for the holiday season. This week we start off talking about Toad’s Item Factory which is a multiperson minigame in Super Mario Party Jamboree and Kodra talks about his experiences playing it with his kiddo. From there Tam shares his experiences with Nine Sols, which is in theory a game he should like but is not quite there. Several of us have made it to the Path of Exile II Endgame and as such we discuss some of the issues with it, the most glaring being the whole One Portal Problem. Kodra has started playing Warhammer 40,000 Martyr which is honestly prompting Bel to reinstall and check it out again. Finally, Tam talks a bit about the major changes that have gone into Star Citizen with the opening of a whole other star system with the Pyro update. Topics Discussed: Super Mario Party Jamboree Toad’s Item Factory Nine Sols Path of Exile II Endgame Our Issues Warhammer 40k Martyr Star Citizen 4.0: Pyro…

1:16:32

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen This week we start off with some discussion of the Video Game Trailer show… which really should just call itself that because the “Awards” thing feels like an afterthought at this point. Bel is excited for Witcher 4 and Dispatch, and Ash’s favorite game of all time is finally getting a Sequel. We also are curious what sort of game Intergalactic is going to end up being and sure hope it is not a soulslike. From there Bel talks about softening his thoughts about Path of Exile II as he is probably a day out of getting to maps. Kodra and Tam however have become significantly less charitable than last week. We also talk a bit about Caves of Qud which has actually launched now. Then Ammo and Tam share their glowing praise of the new Indiana Jones game from Machine Games. While it technically is a stealth game, it is also a fascist punching simulator with quirky oneliners which is also great. Topics Discussed: The Game Awards 2024 Lots of Trailers, Few Awards The Death of ESports Path of Exile II - One Week In Caves of Qud Indiana Jones and the Great Circle…

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! This week we end up mostly talking about the early access launch for Path of Exile II. This truly was a feat of cloud engineering as the Grinding Gear Games team delayed for a few hours to prepare for the onslaught of over a million players… then the game just worked pretty much flawlessly until some minor issues on Saturday. It is hard to explain how big of a feat this is, especially considering the struggles that Last Epoch had with unexpected success, for a game that has never had more than 300k peak concurrency to scale up this fast is massive. When it comes to the actual game… Bel is not having a great time as Warrior, but everyone else seems to be greatly enjoying themselves. We talk about the good bits, and the bad bits. From there Bel talks a bit about the OnlyFangs Hardcore WoW Event, and then Ash and Kodra share their experiences with Atlyss. Topics Discussed: Path of Exile II Early Access Launch Feat of Cloud Engineering Everyone Loves it But Bel OnlyFangs Hardcore World of Warcraft Event Atlyss…

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! We had a show where we were not certain we were going to record… and then suddenly essentially had everyone but Ashgar. Bel has been revisiting Starfield and talks about what a weirdly offputting game it is. From there Bel and Grace talk about their experiences with Dungeon Clawler which is essentially Peglin but with a Claw machine instead of Pachinko. Kodra has ventured forth into Veilguard and finds the pacing and structure a bit odd, so we talk about that and how it contrasts from the only Dragon Age game he has ever played, Origins. Tam talks about all of the stuff that has been going on this year in Star Citizen and how the free-fly event is less spectacular than previous outings. Tam also shares his experiences with Stars Reach Alpha and how he is not entirely certain what that game is trying to be. Topics Discussed: Starfield is Offputting Dungeon Clawler Veilguard Structure Star Citizen’s 2024 Stars Reach Alpha…
