It feels like only yesterday we were unwrapping the gifts of the 5.0 launch but we’re back again to break down a really jam-packed .1 patch. This one is spoiler-free too, in no small part because one quarter of our hosts are very bad at keeping up with the main story. With a bevy of quality-of-life changes and new content we end up with lots to discuss. From the new alliance raid (it’s great) to the housing crisis (less great) and on to the pixielands we break down all the goodies we got over the last two weeks.

Hosts

Christina Zammarrelli

Gaming has been a core part throughout Poptarts life. Though her specialty is JRPGs, she tries to branch out and try new things. Most of her time gets put into the MMORPG, Final Fantasy XIV, but she still finds time to play new games.

Chip Locke

Chip has a boring adult day job and then burns as much free time as possible playing the videos james. Fond of a variety of MMOs, JRPGs, and action games without active time button mashing.

Kristen Allison

Began the gaming life with a game boy to be kept entertained during a vacation in the early 90s and forgot to put it down after that. Currently, most gaming time goes into FFXIV. Doing her best to prove she's not a robot.

Deanna Huber

Playing all kinds of games since she was a kid, Deanna is a big fan of many different genres of games. But the main focus has been FFXIV since May 2018. She occasionally strays to FPS or RPGs whenever one catches her attention.
