Tonight we record the March game of the month show… Pyre by Supergiant Games. Transistor was almost universally our first AggroChat game of the year, and as a result we had pretty high expectations about this game. However we wound up with a pretty wide swath of opinions ranging from love to hate.

This week we went a little off course from our normal show. In truth we are all largely playing the same games we have been playing for the last few weeks. Instead Ashgar proposed a topic where we discussed what makes a grind work in a game. This eventually devolves into a discussion of mostly Monster Hunter World because it seems to have a really great grind mechanic. We also discuss traditional JRPG grinding, MMO grinding, and a bit about why the Destiny 2 grind isn’t really working out. Tune in and grind your faces off!

Generally speaking when I think we have a short show… we end up recording a two hour long epic of nuance and random commentary. This is not one of those situations. We are still very much in a Monster Hunter shaped hole that may or may not be the footprint of the monster we are tracking. That said we do talk a bit about DragonQuest Builders on the Switch and Radiant Historia on the 3DS. However like clockwork we did in fact dig right back into the Monster Hunter goodness as we somehow managed to get Thalen to buy into this nonsense as well.

This week we record our 190th episode and for whatever reason each time we tick off a 10th episode it seems like a big deal. Last week during the bustle of getting ready for a show I completely missed a topic so we are leading off with that. Thalen talks a bit about the early access deck building game Slay the Spire. From there we talk a bit about our continued addiction to Monster Hunter World in spite of its flaws on the group interaction side. We talk a bit about our new D&D 5th Edition Campaign set in a custom game world of Tam’s design. Kodra talks a bit about bouncing off of Warframe and that leads to a discussion about games and accessibility. Tam and Ash describe Night in the Woods… and it begins to sound an awful lot like Bel’s experiences with his own home town. From there we attempt to close out the show but get into another discussion about Monster Hunter World before actually succeeding.
