The SML Podcast – Episode 739: Joyful Dusk

This monster episode welcomes Josh Glavine of Crate Entertainment to the show, and norg has a VERY special intro for everybody.

The show kicks off with Pernell Vaughan and I being joined by Josh Glavine to the show to chat all about the Xbox One release of Grim Dawn: Definitive Edition! We chat all about how the game started and the origins of the studio, to bringing the game to Xbox and the challenges they faced getting it on a new platform. Plus talk about the usual off topic stuff like cats and Shoot Many Robots and oh my god Pernell will you just pick a class already…

After Josh heads out, it’s end of the year PartyCast time and nearly the whole gang is here. Pernell, Chris Taylor, Tim Ekkebus, Brooke Poole, Jacob Garner, and George “norg” Nowik are all on hand to chat about our year in games. We first bitch about George ruining our lives by Whamming us in that intro, plus Game of the Year discussion, what’s we’ll be doing on our break, and so much more shenaniganery! Oh, and Aki shows up halfway through reviews!
