Episode description

On this episode of Total Pebble Knockdown:

* Something seems really sketchy about Roblox, by which we mean everything. A discussion jumping off from the Kotaku article by Luke Plunkett on the game's player economy. "It's Shocking Just How Shady Roblox Actually Is"

* Can we imagine a terrible world with microtransactions in tabletop gaming? A mind experiment we probably should not have done.

* Being competent is a real chore. A discussion on the curse that is being good at your job. Should be just be bad at things?

* Yes, Nathan played Boyfriend Dungeon and got all the hearts. Oh, and a cat can turn into brass knuckles. SPOILER WARNING for the ending of the game.

* What's the difference between rogue-likes and rogue-lites? We compare and contrast while discussing Hades and Curse of the Dead Gods.
