AggroChat: Tales of the Aggronaut Podcast
Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! Happy Easter to all of our listeners, since this happens to be dropping on the actual holiday. We talk a bit this week about how we recorded last week on the eleventh anniversary of this show… without realizing it until far too late to discuss. We start off the show talking about the second season of Last Epoch and the Tombs of the Erased expansion. This expansion is largely focused on the endgame, and for the last year, they have apparently been cooking because it is amazing. ...

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! We were out last week but, as such, came back with a stacked list of topics to discuss. We start off talking about Path of Exile II and the bad launch patch for Dawn of the Hunt. We also talk about the interview between Zizaran and the Devs and the resulting updates. We then dive into some discussion about an amazing-looking season for Tombs of the Erased in Last Epoch coming next week and all of the new features. Kodra and Tam share their experiences with Blue Prince, which...

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are down a Grace this week, but push on with several topics. This week, Path of Exile II revealed the Dawn of the Hunt league, and we talked a bit about how it did not really resolve some of the problems we had with the game. Bel also talks a bit about pushing up his third level 100 in the Legacy of Phrecia Event. We then discuss the very last Switch based Nintendo Direct because next week we are getting one announcing the Switch 2. Bel shares his experience playing the...

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, and Tamrielo Hey Folks! We were out last week because Bel’s world was burning and all of the smoke was killing his lungs. This week we start off with a discussion about the Eleventh Hour Games and Grinding Gear Games situation as GGG pulls a Blizzard and ambushes the Last Epoch Season 2 launch. From there we talk about the chill tea shop gameplay of Wanderstop, telling us that sometimes it is a good idea to stop and relax for a bit. Tam and Kodra played through Wanderstop and talked about how it has evolved the...

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, and Thalen Hey Folks! We are down our West Coast contingent this week but carried forth with a relatively short show. Bel talks a bit about the Anti Sanctum Alliance and how it seems to have actually made an impact at least in the pricing of Sanctum Tomes in the Legacy of Phrecia event. From there Thalen shares his experiences with The Roottrees Are Dead, which is a logic puzzle spiritual successor to games like Return of the Obra Dinn. We move on to talking a bit about Monster Hunter Wilds and our early experiences so far. ...

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! This week we are down a Grace and Kodra but get back an Ammo. We start off with a topic that got bumped from last week about how much of a difference music makes in games. Specifically, we talk a bit about Star Citizen getting music but also talk about how important good audio queues are. From there Bel shares his early experiences with Avowed a game by Obsidian that is very much Elder Scrolls if you removed the awkward simulationist tendencies. Ash and Bel talk a bit about the upcoming...

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! This week we started with a single topic… and by the time we were finished ended up having to bump half of the assembled topics to next week in order to keep the runtime down. We start off with Bel talking about the bad news for Path of Exile players, and how there is no new league around the corner. He also talks a bit about getting sucked into the private league that Pohx created which has capped out at 20,000 players. From there Grace talks a bit about playing Heroes of...

From there we talk a bit about Beastieball's early access as it steps ever closer to the full release. Dragonquest 3 HD-2D is out and we talk a bit about the changes to the game. A bunch of us got more keys to hand out for Soulframe and as a result way more folks have had a chance to play it. So we talk some more about how weird of a game it really is.
