Very Small Snowman | Total Pebble Knockdown #98
1On this episode of Total Pebble Knockdown:
Big things are happening at The Escapist. Or I should say, big things used to happen at The Escapist before the staff left. We are talking about what happened with Nick Calandro and all the staff that followed him out the door. We also discuss what the future holds for Escapist ex-pats, most notably Yahtzee Croshaw from Zero Punctuation.

Blizzcon happened and Alex was very excited to discuss the future of World of Warcraft, while Nathan respectfully sat in pensive ennui. But Blizzard has big, long-term plans for their seminal MMORPG and we discuss what that will look like for the next decade or two.

Nathan got a pleasant surprise this week in the form of an unexpected game called Wartales. The medieval turn-based combat game keeps presenting new discoveries in both the game world and mechanics. On this episode we discuss what makes this game so engaging and why Nathan is ultimately going to go play it again as soon as he’s done editing.
