The Core is Small But Mighty
Pokemon terrorist threats, Nintendo NX(?) patents, FTC violating Youtubers, the size of the core gaming market, and more on Mashcast #155....
After taking a few unexpected months off, the Mashcast is back! Nick, Jarret, and guest host Jorge talk about what they’ve been up to the past few months, and Nick seemed really keen on talking about PT. Speaking of PT, Guillermo Del Toro I saying he’s done with games development, but it’s mainly to keep from hurting others. Another surprise was that someone called in a bomb threat to a GamerGate panel, the surprising part being that the panel was pro-GamerGate. Among other things we talk about more franchises possibly coming to Heroes of the Storm, Playstation Plus members being able to vote on games, a Nintendo employ getting fired for being on a podcast, MLG making major strides in Ohio, and Crackdown 3’s use of the cloud in multiplayer.
Jarret is Executive Director as well as one of the founding members of Mash Those Buttons. He plays all types of games, but tends to lean more toward FPS, Stealth, and Combat games.
Host of WoW! Talk! and The Tauren & The Goblin. Sometimes known as the Video Games Public Defender. Wants to play more Destiny and Marvel Heroes but WoW is all-consuming. Decent F2P Hearthstone player. Sad that he lost the Wii that had Wrecking Crew on it. Would be happy if the only game ever made was M.U.L.E. Gragtharr on Skywall-US. Garresque on Ravencrest-US.
This week we return to Eos where there's Kett, a place named Advent, children in one form or another, and an Architect!
We continue our slow tour through the Dawntrial story, and also have some fun chaotic commentary.
We welcome 2025 with some fresh patch notes for 11.1! Also, there are bugs on Siren's Isle!
Ryder and team may have missed out on the events of ME2 by leaving the galaxy but the Kett are determined to fix that.
