Crubcast #59 w/Pre and Post Show
Hey gang. Kind of a weird/short one tonight. My internet cut out a bit in, so Kevin jumped in last minute, but due to things going so late and with TooManyGames travel needing to happen we did the best we could. Still a good time regardless, just be warned it's a bit all over. Tonight's topic was about when too much gameplay drowns out the story in a game.
