Greetings listeners!
Firstly, apologies for the weird audio this episode. About 40 minutes into the episode Kyran's PC died randomly (thankfully Audacity was able to save the audio) but unfortunately upon resuming the recording Kyran cockily didn't check which microphone Audacity defaulted to and the result is what he sounds like in the second half of the episode. A one time disaster hopefully.
Rest assured Kyran has learned an important lesson about not trusting Audacity too much.
On this week's episode we get into our first Quest Log of the year as Joel gives TMNT: Splintered Fate the meekest of thumbs up before Kyran dives headfirst into his impressions from the recent closed network test for Elden Ring: Nightreign.
Meanwhile we return to Dope or Nope to work our way through Sony's recent State of Play!
