Join us as we discuss the surprising news that Blizzard OG Chris Metzen is returning to the company to oversee the Warcraft universe. Will he drag WoW back to what it was or push it forward into the new territories it's been exploring in the last few expansions? Also, how the recent controversial decisions by Unity may affect Hearthstone which uses the game engine, our enjoyment of the Turbulent Timeways events in WoW, and what games reinvented themselves successfully…and which did not.

Join us this week as we discuss the recently rolled out Dragonflight Season 4 including its reverse squish dungeon difficulty change. Also our WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria beta experiences, Hearthstone’s quest difficulty identity crisis, and WoW’s return to China. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dragonflight Season 4 is upon us

Special guest site writer Nick Marino joins us as we discuss the massive amount of news that dropped this week about WoW’s next expansion The War Within. We cover arguably one of the biggest quality of life improvements coming to the game in the form of Warbands as well as the alpha test, dynamic flight, Delves, the new Earthen allied race, new classes coming to the Dracthyr, a major in-game event that has already been spoiled (really, people, let's not), and the new mode that turns spiders into crabs. Though not crabs with tiny hats so there is obviously still some improvement to be had there. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Everything we know about The War Within

Join us as we discuss the smaller delights found in WoW Classic Season of Discovery Phase 3, trying to keep up with all of the seasons/battle pass/limited time event grinds across multiple games, and what recent single player fantasy games (other than Baldur's Gate 3) is equivalent to Cyberpunk 2077’s engaging mix of massive world building, story driven quests, and modern graphics. Hint: Not enough. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The crushing weight of too much content

Join us as we discuss the new adorable duck reward from this year’s Noblegarden event, Diablo 4’s first PTR, what we’d like to see in the future for WoW Classic’s Season of Discovery, how Overwatch introduced a new hero but without all the extra stories usually surrounding the launch of a character, and we end on a deep discussion about Pirate Stitches and shark guns. You’re welcome. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Noblegarden has gone to the ducks and we're here for it

Join us as we discuss the recent Diablo 4 dev chat revealing the many quality of life improvements coming to the gearing system, the massive Dragonflight meta achievement that rewards the goodest of boys, and the new raid content coming to WoW Classic Season of Discovery and Wrath Classic. Plus, the flower-hatted duck that is destined to be our new best friend. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
