Join the gang as we discus the renaissance of the HoMM likes, with Olden Era's expansive demo in the vanguard.

This podcast was edited by RP Productions - video and audio production made easy.

Read our thoughts on Olden Era here.

So, from demo to early access, another look at Endless Legend 2.

What's changed? What's better, what's worse?

Is this a diamond in the rough, or a lump of coal?

Aspects, Broken Lords, Necrophage, Kin of Sheredyn or Tahuks, who shall rule supreme?

Is the monsoon-tidefall fun?

How is the combat?

Join the intrepid crew as we answer all these questions and more.

Is this a battle of people with "battle" in their name?

Welcome BattleMode, well known for his uncompromising opinions on modern game design(don't mention "gameplay loop!)

Welcome BloodyBattleBrain, well known for his somewhat unhealthy obsession with Age of Wonders.

And welcome rickyP, neutral observer with fresh eyes.

Enjoy this conversation about the behemoth Age of Wonders, and you decided - is it flawed, or flavourful, or both?

Whose music reigns supreme?

Whose chant echoes through the ages?

Who shall triumph, in the battle of the Songs?

Join BBB, Drexy, Ricky and David as they discuss Songs of Conquest and Songs of Silence.

Two songs enter, one song leaves?

Join the gang as we go over 2 games that got dlc recently.

Which do you prefer, Conquest of Eo or Zephon?

Join the eXplorminate gang as we dig deep into the Endless Legend 2 demo, and talk about what we like, and what we think needs some more work.

What is the connection between Distant Worlds 2 and the concept of "awe"?

Awe - the feeling of reverential respect mixed with fear and wonder.

Awesome -having some awe. Now used to mean something good, cool, interesting. As in it was awesome to get Erik Rutins AND Dastactic on the show.

Awe inspiring - bringing about the sense of awe. As in, the concept of Distant Worlds 2 is awe inspiring.

Awful - meaning, literally, full of awe, yet somehow the exact opposite of awesome. As in, it is awful that I have waited this long to play Distant Worlds 2.

Yes, this show is about Distant Worlds 2. We have Erik Rutins, Dastactic, Drexy, David and Andy (who says very little because he is awestruck!)

Enjoy, and keep exploring!

Join Drexy, Ricky and David as they discuss the current state of 4X. Is the genre dead? Are we in a golden age? Too many games? Too little innovation? Can games recover from a "bad" debut?

Listen on, and you decide.

Andy (aka BloodyBattleBrain) and Drexy sit down for a brief chat about the eXplorminate handover, and what the future holds for this amazing community.

Rob, Drexy, and Ricky speak with Jongwoo and Martin of Studio Imugi about their upcoming grand strategy game, Bonaparte: A Mechanized Revolution.
