Some of our landings were desperate adventures.

We are now prepared to meet the inevitable counter-attacks with power and with confidence. My name is Gary Butterfield.

My name is Cole Ross.

And you're listening to Bonfire Side Chat.

It is a Skadu favorite.

And I know it's not pronounced that way.

Okay.

All right.

Just to open it up with some belligerence. I gotcha. It's fun. It is very fun. 23 Skadu. I know. I know it's fun. I just don't like being corrected all the time. I don't like being corrected either. But that's on them. They could just not make that not happen if they didn't do that. It's on them, but I still have to deal with it. I know, but 23 Skadu. Yeah. Like you, you get to, you get to grab a Skadu fragment and go, 23 Skadu, and then ride Torrent, uh, wherever you like. I just, uh, the, the fun isn't worth the trouble to me. The, uh, oh, that's a, you should share that with a therapist. That's a bleak-ass statement.

For some, for some things, for some things it is.

And this one, in this instance, a funny sounding word isn't, it's not enough because, because, because, like, not everybody's going to hear you saying you understand that it's pronounced differently. That's true. That's true. People write us all the time before they listen to the entire episode. That's true. Yeah. We'll just start. We'll start the intro with that. We'll just play this segment at the beginning of every episode of this new season. Yes. Yeah. Welcome back, everybody. Welcome back.

This week, uh, it is the proper introduction to the Shadow of the Year Tree

DLC content, a little bit more organized, a little bit more purposeful than our first impressions,

uh, kind of setting up the ground, uh, for us to, uh, talk about this incredibly, incredibly rich DLC that we got on June

the 21st, one month ago, as of the time this episode comes out. Yeah, semi-sequel, I would say.

This is bigger than any DLC they've done. It's bigger than most DLCs I've played.

Yep.

Um, you know, this is, uh, the, the closest thing I can think of is it's, uh, is thrown a ball, which is the, the expansion for Balders Gate to.

You have to go back a while.

Excepting, accepting blood and wine of like this to me reminds me of like tribunal or blood moon or whatever it was for Boroughwind.

Like, this is on the order of like an MMO expansion almost.

Very much so.
