Chris and Bill tackle the world of MMO gaming news without the benefit of Harry’s wisdom in this week’s episode. Jumping in Tyria for Guild Wars 2 news before explore another universe in Starcraft Universe, they jump head first into the idea that No Man’s Sky may be too sandbox for Chris.
Audio Version:
What we did in game:
Bill:
- Overwatch
- GW2 (downloaded new patch, story update)
Chris:
- Guild Wars 2 – Living World Season 3
- Crowfall
- LOTRO

- This is the MMO that was initially shut down by Blizzard when it was originally a grass-roots project.
- It’s been resurrected, funded by kickstarter and is apparently playable now (through Battle.net via Starcraft 2 Arcade).
- Note – it sounds like the Protoss narrator is Peter Cullen (Optimus Prime), but it’s actually not. It’s Eric Dieter (@ZeusLegion)
