- MP#120 - Firebomb Your ComputerPlz join my Steam group (and try Valour)
GAMERS, this isn't the first time we've commented on a Discord exodus, but with some luck it may be the last. @[email protected] actually spent a while looking into the state of Discord alternatives, three of which we will go into some depth in this episode.
Stuff referenced:
- Dielan's effortpost
- Discord's verification partner might be evil
- Xbox has a new AI-first CEO
- Our Steam group
THE FOSS ALTERNATIVES:
- Valour - Melonmancy's choice of FOSS Discord alternative
- Fluxer - Some kid in Sweden made a shot-for-shot Discord clone
- Stoat - maybe it's abandonware, or maybe the devs hiding something

1 hr 50 min - MP#119 - All Jeffrey Epstein's FaultNotice how Gaben isn't in the files
GAMERS, welcome to MP#119, where the tangents were many and it is essentially unchapterable. We did attempt to but a few chapters together for the upload but trust that this episode is all over the place, in the most positive way possible. Turns out a 3rd and 4th Concord-like (as in commercial failure) is on the way and @[email protected] reacts to the trailer in the recording. We also spend some time talking about the audacity of it all that Highguard even has a roadmap. All this an more inside.

1 hr 43 min - MP#118 - Ball and GunWe are so back
GAMERS, Happy new year! It's time to talk about the best games of 2025. Be it drama surrounding the industry shows such as The Game Awards, as well as our own nominations.

It must only be new TO YOU. Please send us boostagrams or post on our forum what was the best new game YOU played last year and we'll talk about it next team, even if the game is fuckin ancient, if its new to you, it's new.
