There wasn't much in the way of news this week, despite Stoy claiming he actually enjoys doing yard work now. Weirdo. Anyway, Dragon Age Dreadwolf is now in alpha stage, Calisto Protocol is not going to pass a ratings board in Japan, and the first Witcher video game is getting a full remake, thank god. Steph finished Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, and has struggles with Monster Hunter on the Steam Deck, Pat is disturbed by Yomawari: Lost in the Dark, but enjoys Star Ocean: The Divine Force, and shares joy of playing Bayonetta 3 with Stoy. And Stoy played Modern Warfare 2, Resident Evil Village: Shadow of Rose expansion, and sunk in some more time with Gotham Knights and New Tales From The Borderlands. Enjoy the episode!

Steph, Pat and Stoy debate over whether we really need waifu VR games to kick this episode off. I don't think we reached a decision on that.

A pet project for Stoy, originally for Patreons only a while back, is now public!  In the lead up to Dragon Age 4, Stoy wants to take you on a deep dive into the lore and history of Dragon Age, with many of the common stories and themes. In this episode we go through who Andraste was, and how her campaign against the Tevinter Imperium was so vital in getting her people to believe in the Maker again, and how jealousy and hate brought her down. These events were the catalyst to the creation of the Chantry as we know it, and its worshippers paying homage to not only the Maker, but Andraste The Bride of the Maker herself.
