AggroChat #366 – FFXIV Endwalker Prologue Show

November 7, 2021 by Belghast

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen

Last week we brought you the Epilogue show for the patch content following the release of Shadowbringers that brings that core story to a close. This week we dive into the content following that, namely patches 5.4, 5.5, and 5.55 that serve as the prologue to the events that we will be experiencing starting November 19th with the release of Endwalker. I feel like we probably know less about what is going to happen going into this expansion than we have previously, but we talk about what takes place and what we do know about the future. We also talk a bit about our mixed feelings regarding specifically the villains that we are going into this expansion with.

Topics Discussed

Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers
- Patch 5.4 – Futures Rewritten
- Patch 5.5 – Death Unto Dawn – Part 1
- Patch 5.55 – Death Unto Dawn – Part 2
- Discussion of the Endwalker Media Tour

AggroChat #365 – FFXIV Shadowbringers Epilogue Show

October 31, 2021 by Belghast

About a month ago we were being nostalgic about that time when we used to do a spoiler show for a Final Fantasy XIV expansion, and then do a final show talking about all of the content that releases after the expansion and leading into the next. We had a few folks that were not caught up and we set a date in time of wanting to record this show on the 30th, just ahead of the Endwalker release mania. Last night we recorded this show and quickly realized there was no way that we were going to cram it all into a single episode. So as a result I bring you the Shadowbringers Epilogue show today covering patches 5.1, 5.2, and the wrap up of the Shadowbringers related story in 5.3.

Next week we will bring out the Endwalker Prologue show because really the 5.4, 5.5, and 5.55 content is teeing up the beginning of the next expansion more than resolving anything related to Shadowbringers. I hope you as listeners enjoy both of these shows and it should go without saying that these are going to be full spoiler episodes as we cover everything we can remember that happened in each of the patches.

Topics Discussed

Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers
- The State of the Game at the end of 5.0
- Patch 5.1 – Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty
- Patch 5.2 – Echoes of a Fallen Star
- Patch 5.3 – Reflections in Crystal

AggroChat #364 – Economy Woes

October 24, 2021 by Belghast

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen

Tonight without really meaning to, we recorded an entire show that is nothing but New World topics. Firstly we talk about Belghast and Eliyon being the first in the company to hit level 60 and some of the realities of doing max level content. We talk about how Minda is now a famous server because of a dramatic event that took place as the last Covenant guild on the server threw the fight for Mourningdale. From there we talk a bit about the general economic woes of the game and how everything is either massively valuable or utterly worthless.

Topics Discussed

Paizo Unionization Recognized
Hitting 60 in New World
Jade and the Great Territory Throw
New World Economy Woes
Comparisons with Everquest

AggroChat #363 – Pacifist Tomato Conquers All

October 17, 2021 by Belghast

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, and Tamrielo

Tonight apparently there is something funky going on with Bel’s Mic and he fades in and out at weird times. First off we talk a bit about Paizo and their efforts to Unionize. Bel talks a bit about having reached level 80 in all of his battle jobs in Final Fantasy XIV. From there we talk about Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, Unsighted, and revisit Wildermyth. We talk a bit about what happens when you make cataclysms happen 100 years earlier in Stellaris. Then we finish things out with some New World updates.
