Part two of our 2019 retrospective is here! We start off with the mighty 5.0 expansion, Shadowbringers. We don’t dive into the details of the story because, let’s be honest, we all know what’s happening.

We spend the majority of this episode discussing the ups and downs (honestly mostly ups) about the initial 5.0 patch. With all the job adjustments and great content that was added we forget that it’s only been about 6 months since launch. The episode is capped off with the rest of the 5.X update thus far.
