Welcome to another episode of MMO Radio! If the third time is a charm then prepare to lose your pants, for here is episode three. This week we talk about Kickstarter, the good, the bad, and the tantalizing. Specifically, the games: table top, video, and beyond. Later in the show we explore developer’s over-promising ways and why players generally don’t care. Adam recounts his latest experiences running a DnD 4E campaign and how it’s never as simple as coming up with “a couple of names.” Silly Adam… this is Dungeons and Dragons! Nothing is simple.
As always, if you like what you hear, please consider leaving us a 5-star iTunes review. It is so important at this stage and thanks to six kind reviewers we are now on the New & Noteworthy list! Our goal is to appear on the iTunes front page, so even just choosing a star rating helps move us up the rankings. Thank you!
