Some of our landings were desperate adventures.

We are now prepared to meet the inevitable counter-attacks with power and with confidence.

I said before that your prosthetic arm was a fang, but by fitting Shinobi tools to your arm, you'll be able to change the form of that fang.

Thick shields, break them into splinters, swift foes, bring them down from afar.

Fitting more devices means more ways to slay your enemies.

If there's someone that needs killing, there's a proper way to kill them.

That's all there is to it.

This is Gary Butterfield.

This is Cole Ross.

And you're listening to Bonfire Side Chat. It is an undying favorite. And this week, we are starting our discussion of the Ashtana Outskirts. This is part one going up to the chained ogre. Yeah. Yeah. So it's still early on in the game. We're still feeling out the pace of things.

But this is what makes sense now, and we will see how this works out.

We have a couple notes early on before we get into it.

The first one before we even get on the subject is we realize that a lot of of people are probably uh joining us from bonfire side chat um who have joined the patreon and do not know what else we do yes uh so we wanted to let you guys know yeah so um when you pledged for us you saw that you pledged to duckfeed dot TV not to Bonfire Side Chat. We do lots of shows.

As of right now, when you subscribe to us, you get all of those.

Yeah. Yeah. So we just want to tell you what they were.

You know, because we don't, they don't necessarily, you know, a lot of those have kind of built-in audiences and stuff.

And we want to do a better job of introducing people to them. Yeah. So, yeah, the main show that we do on the network is called Watch Out for Fireballs. You've probably heard us talk about it on old Bonfire Side Chats. It's probably the thing that shares the most DNA with this. It is like a book club, but for games. and the kind of way to start there is just to pick a game that you're very familiar with.

For our backlog, we've done tons of episodes. And yeah, just give it a listen. Yeah. You know, good things, you know, there are some things that kind of share some of that soul's DNA. We did Hellblade, which has a little bit of that kind of combat system, that heavy weighted combat system. We did Symphony the Night, which has a little bit of that kind of combat system that heavy weighted combat system you know it's symphony the night which uh has a little bit of that uh non linear kind of

metroidvania exploration yeah that's the non linear yeah exploration i was gonna say man yeah

uh we also did near uh recently which uh if you if you love that game uh and would take umbrage at us not liking it, you know, maybe save that one for later.

However, that is something, yes, the first near specifically.

Yeah, the bad one.
