Cauldron Archives - Tales of the Aggronaut

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

Hey Folks! We are back in full force and continuing our adventure through the second part of the Games of the Year 2025 podcast. We cut the list in half, giving us fifteen games that we were talking about in each episode. This is not necessarily a numerical list, but the titles that appear later in the shows did get more votes. It was a great year for gaming, but also a year where we were constantly getting distracted by the next big thing coming down the pipe. While we played a lot of games… we did not necessarily FINISH a lot of games.

Topics Discussed:

Fantasy Life – The Girl Who Steals Time
Chess.Com
Guild Wars Reforged
Cauldron
Ghost of Yotei
Dune Awakening
Atelier Resleriana The Red Alchemist & The White Guardian
Deltarune Chapters 3-4
Wanderstop
Where Winds Meet
Path of Exile Legacy of Phrecia
Split Fiction
Hades II
Blue Prince
Silksong

Hey Folks! We got the full crew and dived into the topic of what defines a game. Is it still a game if it mostly plays itself? From there, we talk about the recent acquisition of Eleventh Hour Games by Krafton and what it might mean for the future of Last Epoch. We reprise the topic of connecting with players since Kodra was out last week and had thoughts. This deteriorates into a general topic about Guild Wars 2 and chasing rare items. Tam shares the conclusion to his new computer topic from last week and what he decided to do. Finally, we talk a bit about how Hades 2 has released the last patch before the official 1.0 launch.
