We return after a week off to chat about the deluge of good and bad news and try to stay positive about the industry we all love. More mass layoffs, is the PS5 slim a scam and in some good news John Riccitiello leaves Unity & Bobby Kotick leaves Activision after the merger goes through with Microsoft, yay? We swoon over Lies of P, lament over Lords of the Fallen & chat about all the Steam Next Fest games we've played! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But first updates on Unity v Games Industry as well as a massive ton of XBOX leaks this week!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're joined by Rami Ismail this week to get to the bottom of the Unity changes that were announced last week and what that ultimately means for educators, hobbyists and developers big and small. We also check our hype levels for the upcoming changes and expansion to Cyberpunk 2077. We've also played the bonkers Mortal Kombat 1 & the soulslike Lies of P!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The crew is back together after braving the elements in the desert and space to have an in-depth conversation about the pros and cons of Starfield after a substantial amount of timing playing it! Also is the Switch 2 right around the corner? More Skull & Bones woes, E3 not happening again maybe, and a whole lot more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cohh is traveling through space and Zeke is (hopefully!) doing alright out in Burning Man this week so JP brought in some ringers: DansGaming & Strippin to chat about our time with Starfield.

Zeke is out this week and filling in for him are DansGaming and Strippin! Who all coincidentally have finished Baldur's Gate 3 and we give our final thoughts on the game that making waves for the last month! Then we get into all the exciting info from GamesCom and the next Destiny 2 expansion. TennoCon also happened over the weekend and with it brought new info on Warframe and their new game: Soulframe. Then we give impressions on Skull & Bones, Armored Core 6 & Immortals of Aveum!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Most of us are still deep into trying to finish Baldur's Gate 3 before the next wave of big games graces our PC screens such as: Armored Core VI and Starfield. The latter of which has gone gold 3 weeks ahead of launch! Of course that comes with some hilarious drama as well. In news: Dark and Darker is back maybe? notoriously delayed Skull and Bones gets a closed beta test, Alan Wake 2 gets delayed a week and Geoff Keighley is back with Gamescom's Opening Night Live this Tuesday!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The boys are joined by fellow adventurer DansGaming this week to finally have a chat about Baldur's Gate 3! Is it too good? Should it be the base line for AAA games going forward? Is that fair to other developers? Is Starfield okay? We answer all these quests and more on this week's episode!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
