Overview:

On this week's show, we introduce a new segment: Discord Discussions. We pull out a conversation happening on our Discord and hash it out on the show! This week we break down Eidos-Montréal's Avengers game and its multiple currencies and battle passes. We also talk about the announcements from this past week's Wholesome Direct and Gamescom ONL stream.

Remember to subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, Google Play, or Spotify. Patrons get the show 2 days early!
