Ep 66 - House of Devils
Saturday Dec 31, 2016
Saturday Dec 31, 2016
Episode 66 brings Blue, Justin, Mel, and returning special guest co-hosts Damoel and Demigod257 together to discuss the available information that we have on the infamous Fallen House of Devils. The team discusses the basic information from the Grimoire, as well as delving into a bit more detail on the implications of what this means about Servitors, the possible ramifications of the knowledge (or lack thereof) that Variks holds in regards to the Devil Splicers antics, and even possible indications of pre-Whirlwind House structure for the Eliksni.
Also, please note there is a bit of a deviation on the structure of the episode this time (pre and post show segments that were requested to be added in) - but don't worry, we'll get back to the usual structure next episode!

Ep 65 - Guardian Vehicles
Wednesday Dec 21, 2016
Wednesday Dec 21, 2016
Episode 65 brings Blue, Justin, and Mel back together to discuss the vehicles that our Guardians utilize to traverse through the amazing universe of Destiny (predominately the jumpships, which are sources of great trivia tidbits within the lore of the game and actually rather fascinating once you delve into the design and concepts of the overall models). While there aren't a huge number of Grimoire Cards - Blue and Grneyed have managed to compile a vast amount of data into a nicely laid out map (link below) and the majority of the episode is actually discussing the logic that Blue sees within the display of information regarding the jumpships. There is a healthy chat about the lore implications of the Raid ships (as well as a short foray into the evolution of the ships that were avaiable in each successive Raid) and even some good tips/tricks for SRL from our good friend, Taylor-B (linked below as well for everyone).

Ep 64 - Enemy Weapons
Saturday Dec 17, 2016
Saturday Dec 17, 2016
Episode 64 brings Blue, Justin, and Mel back together to discuss the weapons of the enemy races within the Destiny universe - focusing primarily on the mundane "pew, pew, pew" (as Justin so eloquently puts it) archetypes. We run through the available Grimoire cards for the equipment, looking at the thematic narratives that each race's choice of arms presents, with a few punny interjections. Bear with the minor audio hiccups - Blue's computer was trying to decide if it was going to cooperate throughout the episode, and there were a few small spots where it just wanted to take some small breaks (they're not major points of the conversation, as far as Blue is able to tell).

Ep 63 - Humans
Saturday Dec 10, 2016
Saturday Dec 10, 2016
Episode 63 brings Blue and Justin together to chat about the last of the current playable races in the Destiny gameworld, Humans. We get into a fair amount of chatter about the philosophical nature of the Human condition as presented in the game (hint, it has a lot to do with hope) and how that actually creates an overall better gameworld in which we, as players, experience. Get ready for some laughs as we break apart the information that we have about Humanity within the Destiny universe - and don't blame us if you can't find the cornbread.

Ep 62 - Update: Rasputin
Saturday Dec 03, 2016
Saturday Dec 03, 2016
Episode 62 brings Blue and Justin together to chat about the new information that we have received within the Rise of Iron DLC for Destiny on our favorite warmind, Rasputin. Fair warning - Blue has a few tangents with regards to the debate on Rasputin's attacking of the Traveler (or not), the mythological tie ins that can be seen with the response towards the Lords of Iron, and even a look back at the Sleeper Simulant. Enjoy your standard dosage of entertainment at the hands of the team as they walk through the new Grimoire (and let you know their thoughts, of course) and answer this week's Dispatches from the Wilds!

Extra Lore 09 - Borderlands
Friday Dec 02, 2016
Friday Dec 02, 2016
Our 9th installment of the Extra Lore series brings Blue, Justin, and returning special guest co-host Damoel together to explore the Borderlands series. We discuss the general layout of the series' universe, delve into the information in the individual titles, and even chat a bit about the multiple weapons manufacturers that players in the game can purchase weapons of destruction and mayhem from. Also, we touch a bit on the overall tone of the series - especially the depth of the worldbuilding and the refreshing use of humor as a device to drive home some powerful punches concerning some of the more notable NPC's players encounter throughout the series. Tighten up the big-boy pants, because things are gonna get crazy.

The third installment of our Behind the Scenes series gave us an opportunity to sit down with Lady Desiree to chat with her about questions that our Discord chat had about music (especially with regards to implementation to video games). Join us as we discuss the intracies of the musical world with Desiree and enjoy some good laughter at the stories (and a few little easter eggs for those who listen carefully)!
