Things get a little heated this week as 2018 kicks into gear and our passion overflows and threatens to destroy us all. Sea of Thieves inspires a debate about the current and future states of game development and marketing. The group finds common ground thanks to the undeniable fun factor of Far Cry 5 but that doesn't mean the game is without it's fair share of controversy. Nick and Nolan also cracked open Ni No Kuni 2 and A Way Out which are both noteworthy in their own right.
