Tonight we have a bit of an odd show to usher in sleep theft weekend. First we talk about Bel’s descent into madness… that is getting super engaged in Guild Wars 2. He spent the last week chain running World Bosses and talks about how freaking fun that is. From there we talk about some of the long grind systems and how there are multiple paths for different playstyles to reach the same ultimate goal. From there we dust off a topic that has been sitting on the list for a long while, that was originally inspired by Warhammer 40,000 but applies to a lot of different games. Largely we discuss how the most hardcore players represent the smallest portion of the community, but also are the ones that set the pace that everyone else is forced to live up to. This covers a wide swath of topics from Magic the Gathering to MMO Chain Pulling to even the death of New World. It is one wild ride of a show.
