Welcome to episode 158
We come back to a game we played many years ago that TheSuffolkRam liked and Ska4zzi0us didn't. Warhammer The End Times: Vermintide. A 4 player co-op set in the Warhammer Old World setting. You're a ragtag group in a Empire city being attacked by Skaven. It plays like left for dead but with rat men. We talk about the randomization, the fun gameplay, the AI for bots and the Skaven and some of its neat features
Aside from killing rats, Ram has been getting back into games programming after completing a course and switching over from Unity to the Unreal engine, we discuss the differences in quality of software, getting into making games and how best to learn new skills.
Skazz talks about drawing tablets for digital artwork and the costs involved, free software for doing said artwork and we also talk about how easy it is to get into digital work
Watch out for Ram going off the deep end explaining Warhammer 40k lore. We also discuss how technology is marching on, old school special effects and the national GPU shortage.
