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.

Topics Discussed

Final Fantasy XIV – The Rising Event
Destiny 2 Mechanics
Providing Uniform MMO Player Experiences
Through the Ages iOS

AggroChat #172 – The Destiniest Destiny

May 21, 2019September 10, 2017 by AggroChat

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo and Thalen

Tonight we have a bunch of stuff on the docket. We lead off with a discussion about Pax West 2017 that Tam, Kodra and Ashgar attended last weekend. From there we dive into some discussion about the Destiny 2 PS4 launch and how it has been consuming every moment of Bel’s game time. Another big accomplishment is that our Guild in Guild Wars 2 successfully captured the Guild Hall… and have unlocked a completely engrossing minigame in the form of upgrading it. We delve a bit into the mobile game Legendary Game of Heroes, and then veer off the deep end into some discussion about Sonic Mania and the Sonic Archie Comics. The insanity that follows continued long after the podcast… and ultimately had a bunch of us leaving the channel to avoid it. Lastly we talk a bit about Magic the Gathering Arena, their attempt to capture that Hearthstone goodness with actual magic cards.

Topics Discussed

Pax West 2017
Destiny 2 PS4
Guild Wars 2 Guild Hall

AggroChat #169 – Legendary Nonsense

May 21, 2019August 20, 2017 by AggroChat

Featuring: Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo and Thalen

This is another one of those nights when we thought we had nothing to talk about… but ended up having stuff to talk about. We start off the night talking some more about our recent experiences in Guild Wars 2. From there we get into some Robo Squid fun… and talk about how Gnomeregan is still horrible. From there Thalen and I talk about how West of Loathing has suddenly caused us to start playing Kingdom of Loathing again. Kodra talks about finally grasping why Tam loves Agricola so much. There is a brief offshoot conversation that leads us down the path of Magic the Gathering Commander and the game in general. We finally wrap things up with a talk that starts with painting miniatures and ventures forth into creativity in general.
