Total Pebble Knockdown

The Wailing Cavern, finally getting to Orgrimmar, discussion on modern WoW, talking about Final Fantasy 13-2 for some reason.

Nathan-Bear fails at being a bear. Alex wonders if he should do his shaman quest. We wander into Durotar. Nathan discusses the differences between WOW and The Old Republic.

Nathan goes on a Druid spirit quest into Moonglade, looks for a ghost bear, visits some flyover areas and fights a big owl. Sidequest time!

Some change of scenery... several actually.We head into the Barrens, explore the oasis, explore the town of Ratchet, fight some pirates and steal the centaur's booty.

Time to level up to 10, so we can unlock new features. Also, Nathan may be picking up a few hobbies for his journey going forward. And we spend a little more time in Thunder Bluff, finally.

We start to get into the main game loop of World of Warcraft, which is to say, we start to play an MMO. Will our taurens survive the wilds of Azeroth or do continuous corpse runs back to their fallen bodie

After 20 years, Nathan has returned to the world of Azeroth in a series that will live in infamy. Nathan and Alex begin part 1 of a 3-part series with a trip back to World of Warcraft Classic, specifically Burning Crusades as it is the closest version to what he would remember from playing so many years ago. Will his return to the classic MMORPG prove to be a pleasant stroll down memory lane or a slog that reminds him of why he stopped playing in the first place? Watch to find out.

Have you ever played a game, absolutely hated it, but then found yourself thinking about it years later? On this episode of Total Pebble Knockdown, We dive deep into the world of "second chances" in gaming, and exploring why we feel compelled to go back to titles that didn’t click the first time.From a 15-year journey in Dark Souls, to the rocky evolution of Fallout 76. We discuss how a specific build (hello, Pyromancy!) can completely change your perspective on a difficult game, and whether the "MMO-ification" of certain franchises makes them worth the grind.

We're going to a traditional liminal space game, trying out the demo for the recently released Back*Space. Nathan made Alex play this one to see how it stacked up to the many other liminal games he has played and ask if it would sell him on the full game.

Time to speed run a shopping trip to Ike... uh, Generic Swedish Furniture Store. Alex and Nathan take a trip through Last Minute Shopping, a free game on Steam that explores a somewhat liminal space for a much different reason than the Backrooms or Pools... because this time we have to navigate a department store.
