AggroChat #512 – Simless Scrolls

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

Hey Folks! This week we are down a Grace and Kodra but get back an Ammo.  We start off with a topic that got bumped from last week about how much of a difference music makes in games.  Specifically, we talk a bit about Star Citizen getting music but also talk about how important good audio queues are.  From there Bel shares his early experiences with Avowed a game by Obsidian that is very much Elder Scrolls if you removed the awkward simulationist tendencies.  Ash and Bel talk a bit about the upcoming Legacy of Phrecia event in Path of Exile now that all Nineteen Ascendancies have been fully spoiled.  We also talked a bit about the upcoming release of Monster Hunter Wilds and Ammo offering custom Palico commissions.  Ash touches on Soulstone Survivors a bit and then we close out the show with a discussion about the Dungeon Crawler Carl series of books and why Bel and Thalen love them so much.

Topics Discussed:

  • Music Makes a Difference
    • Star Citizen: Fight for Pyro
    • Audio Queues in Games
  • Avowed
  • Path of Exile Legacy of Phrecia Event
    • All 19 Ascendancies Now Revealed
  • Monster Hunter Wilds
  • Soulstone Survivors
  • Dungeon Crawler Carl

AggroChat #505 – One Portal Woes

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

Hey Folks! We are back this week and only actually down one person which seems great for the holiday season.  This week we start off talking about Toad’s Item Factory which is a multiperson minigame in Super Mario Party Jamboree and Kodra talks about his experiences playing it with his kiddo.  From there Tam shares his experiences with Nine Sols, which is in theory a game he should like but is not quite there. Several of us have made it to the Path of Exile II Endgame and as such we discuss some of the issues with it, the most glaring being the whole One Portal Problem.  Kodra has started playing Warhammer 40,000 Martyr which is honestly prompting Bel to reinstall and check it out again.  Finally, Tam talks a bit about the major changes that have gone into Star Citizen with the opening of a whole other star system with the Pyro update.

Topics Discussed:

  • Super Mario Party Jamboree
    • Toad’s Item Factory
  • Nine Sols
  • Path of Exile II Endgame
    • Our Issues
  • Warhammer 40k Martyr
  • Star Citizen 4.0: Pyro
