Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks!

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 3…

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.

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.

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.

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are back after a week off last week due to too many being out.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! Apologies for taking a few weeks off but Covid kicked Belghast’s butt and he is the person who records, edits, and posts the show. This week we had a mountain of topics to get through and got nowhere close to hitting them all. Last Epoch has their very poorly named…

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are down a handful of folks but continue pushing forward.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, and Thalen Hey Folks! For years we have had this tradition of recording a full spoiler show once all of the folks who are actively playing Final Fantasy XIV have completed the content. We knew this would be an epic undertaking given that we never got around to recording a post-Endwalker show. This is ab…

This week we had a bunch of folks with other commitmen…

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen We had a bit of a cursed show… Tam lost power and was essentially knocked out of the rest of the show and then Ash disconnects as well and takes a bit to get back in.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks!

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! It is that time again, time for our yearly Games of the Year show. Last year we learned that it was far better to record two weeks in a row instead of creating a marathon three-plus hour long show and cutting it in half. This week we dive into the second half of th…
