Merry Chrysler! We here at Axe of the Blood God prepared this very special episode that takes both a deeply critical and celebratory look at the nutty year that just passed us by. We had RPGs galore! Have we ever seen such bounty? New Zelda! New Baldur's Gate! New Cyberpunk...sort of!

But we had troubles galore, too. Layoffs and downsizing left and right. The end of vintage game media websites and game studios. What awaits us in 2024? We dunno! But we can guarantee the Blood God will always be with you. That's what Christmas is all about.

In this episode:

• Our Game of the Year!
• Zelda, Zelda, Baldur's Gate, Zelda!
• The Super Mario RPG remake is great!
• Starfield discourse that's as long and girthy as Luigi's schlong
• And lots more!
• 
  

Music used in this episode:

• Tantal [Xenoblade Chronicles 2]
• Narshe March [Final Fantasy VI]
