We return to the Forgotten Realms, and the kingdom of tappa tappa tappa to talk about this console hack-n-slash game. You play as an upstart adventurer who is mugged in Baldur's Gate, which draws you into an evil conspiracy involving extraplanar forces. But of course, you're just here to make numbers go up.

This is a very strange game from that time in the early 2000s when people looked at PlayStation 2s and said "I think this should make people horny". You play as Hugh Hefner in a mash-up of The Sims and Smut Tycoon, throwing parties and hiring writers and things like that. Disappointingly, the actual game features very little Piss 2000.

This month, to coincide with the WOFF! coverage of Dragon Age 2 , we're turning our attention to the web series created by Felicia Day to promote the "Mark of the Assassin" DLC. The short version is that we're unimpressed. The long version is that this is a really fun episode if you like to hear us dig in on a failed movie.

The best, most expansive creepypasta universe lends itself to an admirable fan game. Problem is, it's multiplayer, and playing games with strangers is the pits!

We liked Mortal Shell a lot, so we wanted to hear what you think! This appendix has your responses to this nifty little soulslike. Next week we will have an episode about the Dark Souls Roguelike mod, and after that we will begin covering the 2001 FromSoft action RPG Eternal Ring , a successor to King's Field.

This week, we continue our coverage of Dragon Age 2 by moving on to Chapter 2. Hawke and company have hit it big after three years of living in Kirkwall, but the city's problems are only getting worse. We spend this chapter navigating a difficult political and ethical conflict with the Qunari, whose presence is causing even more unrest than Kirkwall is used to. Support Watch Out for Fireballs!

Rusty Venture's idea of living up to his father's legacy is... to scavenge his father's legacy. An experimental aircraft designed by Jonas tragically crashed into the sea, and Team Venture is on the way to dredge it up. Problem is, they didn't count on running into ghost pirates. Er, I'm sorry, "ghost" pirates. Special thanks to Joshua Jarett for our cover art, Gwen May for our theme song, and Brayton Cameron for being our announcer....

This game is super neat, and we really think it's worth your attention. Please comment on this post with your responses for the Mortal Shell appendix episode, preferably by Wednesday, December 9.
