This week ushers in the return of Tam who has been in world traveller mode. We begin the show with talk about the madness that is the RoboSquid Armada… or our attempt to bring back the challenge to low level World of Warcraft by restricting ourselves to green gear and attempting dungeons at the minimum level. From there we delve into a discussion of the Electronic Arts E3 press conference and how they are bringing roleplaying to sports games. Also discuss the forced two player prison escape experience of A Way Out, and the huge tease that was the Anthem “reveal”. Since Tam has been on the road he has been playing a lot of Fire Emblem so we delve into a length discussion about that franchise specifically. Finally Ashgar and Kodra have been playing Hollow Knight so we do a bit of a dive into why they feel it is the best metroidvania out there.
