@permanentsigh: well that would explain it. I'm sure they mentioned that and I missed it. Thanks!

I have premium shows that don't show up in my podcast app sometimes and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. Some episodes of Grubbsnax weren't showing, now the last like 3 episodes of Albummer aren't showing up in my app. Not sure if there's some issue with how they're going out or if it's on my end.

@infantpipoc: kinda sorta, there isn't really a narrative outside of "chaos sucks and the end times are coming" individual lords have their own stories. Like the grudge match between Eltharion and Grom that you get in their individual campaigns.

Tldr you can start with 3 without missing much.

@straylightzero: Essentially there's two campaigns in 2, one is the story campaign that takes place on the new map they created for 2 and you use the new races and the other incorporates the entire map from 1 and 2 and you can use all the races including the previous games if you own them. It's massive. 3 is doing the same I'm pretty sure.

I can't wait for this. TW2 was somehow the game I played the most last year other than Iceborne. Once you get your head around it, its incredibly fun and there's SO MUCH game there, especially if you bring in the content from the first game. The campaign map is going to be enormous. It is an investment though, it took a few tries and watching some youtube tutorials before I figured out what I was doing. Totally worth it though.

I've put a few hours into it, it's pretty fun. Don't know if it's gonna hold me for 500+ hours like MHW did but I'm enjoying my time with it so far. Servers seem to be crapping the bed at the moment though.

@travisrex: Does turning off tutorials turn off the constant yammering? Cause that seems pretty appealing.

I'm shocked at how much I'm actually enjoying the game. I have two major gripes. The lack of any checkpoints on missions that force you to go back to the last save and start all over again is the hottest bullshit.

Also Virgil. I know what low stamina and low food means. You don't have to tell me every time the meter gets low. Please. Stop. Talking.

It sucks. It's not a huge deal especially if you're the only one using your system but if you're in a situation where there's a few people who wanna play the game it's pretty lame. Which is a bummer cause the game seems pretty alright so far aside from a few issues that are driving me kinda nuts.

The idea that japanese rpgs should be free from certain criticisms is hilarious.
