AggroChat #177 – Extreme Home Makeover

May 21, 2019October 15, 2017 by AggroChat

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Tamrielo and Thalen

This is one of those weeks when we seemed to have more topics to discuss than could possibly fit in a single show. We even had to drop one for the sake of time that we will hopefully revisit in a future episode. We start the show off by talking about Shirogane Extreme mode… or the land rush for housing in the newly opened district in Final Fantasy XIV. Ash and Tam took one for the team and sacrificed sleep schedule to get us a brand new house. From there we talk about Guild Wars 2 Path of Fire expansion and some of the things we have noticed so far. Belghast talks a bit about the Iron Banner 2.0 in Destiny, and some miscellaneous discussion about how clans work. Ash and Thalen discuss Dragon Quest Heroes 2 and the Heroes game genre in general. We wrap up with a discussion on Warhammer starting with the brand new stand alone Shadespire game and then talk a bit about Warhammer 40k.

Topics Discussed

Shirogane Extreme
Final Fantasy XIV Housing
Guild Wars 2 Path of Fire
Destiny 2 Iron Banner
Dragon Quest Heroes 2
Warhammer Shadespire
Warhammer 40k

AggroChat #175 – Fun with Raptors

May 21, 2019October 1, 2017 by AggroChat

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace and Kodra

We are down a Tam and a Thalen, and in the case of Tam it was due to his birthday celebrations.. So if you see Tam online send him some belated wishes. This week we lead things off with some talk about Pokken Tournament and its recent release on the Switch as Kodra and Ashgar spent some time playing it this week. We talk about the Nintendo Switch in general and the fact that we all seem to prefer buying new games on it rather than older Nintendo consoles. We talk a bit about the release of Ixalan and some general discussion about the decision to go away from ultra rare chase cards. Belghast talks a bit about the larger Magic the Gathering market place and how this move seems to making prices a bit more stable so far. We talk a bit about our hopes for Magic the Gathering Arena, and how it might bring us what we actually have wanted for awhile… actual Magic in a Hearthstone package. Belghast talks about the Destiny 2 Faction Rally event and how he has collected all 12 weapons currently available from it. Ashgar talks a bit about his experiences in Guild Wars 2 Path of Fire and collecting mounts. Finally Bel talks a bit about the Final Fantasy Record Keeper 30th anniversary event that is going on currently.

Topics Discussed

Pokken Tournament
Nintendo Switch
Ixalan Release

AggroChat #174 – Old School IPX/SPX

May 21, 2019September 24, 2017 by AggroChat

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Thalen

Tonight we are a bit out of sorts since we are once again down two people… and for the most part have been playing games that will ultimately end up in a game club show. This leads to one of the more meandering shows we have recorded in a really long time where we transition from topic to topic without really announcing the leaps. This was also one of the harder shows to name so I picked one random snippet of obscure discussion from the middle of the show. The show starts with me varying my normal announcing order… and it just sorta continues going awkwardly from there. Enjoy!

Topics Discussed

Through The Ages
Fantasy Strike
Pokken Tournament
Tangle Deep
Old School DOS Gaming
Guild Wars 2 Content Messaging
Games Wasting Our Time
Dragonquest
Warriors Games
Toys R Us Bankruptcy

AggroChat #173 – Vampire Pirate Dinosaurs

May 21, 2019September 17, 2017 by AggroChat

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, and Kodra

Tonight we are down both a Thalen and a Tam and get off on some meandering topics. We start off with some discussion about the Final Fantasy XIV Rising event that just finished and the introduction of the cheap dungeon. From there Belghast gets pretty deep in the woods talking about infusion mechanics and Destiny 2. We branch off from there into a discussion that is really hard to describe. Functionally we were having a chat about MMOs and whether or not the devs are obligated to provide a uniform experience for all players and all activities in a game. This branches out into a bunch of directions from the PVP/PVE debate to how uneven some of the artifact weapon quests felt in World of Warcraft Legion. Kodra talks a bit about his recent journey into the iOS port of one of his favorite Vlaada Chvatil games… Though the Ages. Ashgar gives us some updates on his experience playing through Monster Hunter Stories and we delve a bit into the new Magic the Gathering expansion Ixalan.
