Not sure if not having Ken Levine will be a good thing or a bad thing at this point.

For the story, good (provided he doesn't decide to rewrite the whole thing at the last minute again). For chances of it being released before 2025, not so good.

Karl Jobst did a follow up video about how the retro game collecting market is a giant scam.

Anyone planning to trade in games soon --

Went to Gamestop today with Lost Judgment because I upgraded to the digital ultimate edition while it was on sale. The computer said $8.80 for non-pro and $11 for pro, but like the surprise $50 bonus for trading in consoles right now, I actually got 200% of the non-pro amount instead of just 125%. Asked the dude there about it, apparently it's good on all game trades and lasts until 12/11.

Expeditions: Rome releasing on January 20th.


More people need to know about this series, man. Viking was great, and I may need to see if I can squeeze in Conquistador before this releases.

Damn, I'm going to have to check that out. I played Conquistador years ago. Always thought it was interesting, but got really busy at work one summer and just forgot about it. It's cool to know they've turned it into a series!

Is this basically xcom in Rome? Looks cool.

Combat's broadly similar, turn-based on hex maps. The Expeditions series is a bit of a blend of an RPG and a Tactics-style game; the first one, Conquistador, is essentially a Tactics game with RPG elements, while Viking and the upcoming Rome are more RPGs with Tactics elements.

They also do a surprisingly good job with historical accuracy for a game. They play things a bit loose with stuff like gender roles, and they're telling original stories rather than just running down a historical timeline, but they clearly do their research when making these games.
