Join us this week as we use Cyberpunk 2077 as a jumping off point to explore character building in video game storytelling, settings as characters, what power means in these worlds, the history of immortality and how many of these elements are reflected in WoW lore.

Join us as we discuss Blizzard’s efforts to maintain the secrets of WoW patch 10.2.6 by not hosting it on the PTR, why we approve Diablo 4’s delay in its new gauntlet and leaderboard feature, the new dragon riding mount armor in WoW’s current seasonal content, and why we love our transmog a little too much.

Join us this week as we go on a wilder tangent than usual (and that’s saying a lot) about the connection between the Forsaken and Death Knights through pain and suffering and how that could be Azeroth’s own perpetual energy source (because science!) Yeah, hope you’re strapped in for this one.
