The merch cluster is under attack. Pokemon Worlds took place in Anaheim this week and it was invaded by SCALPERS. While Garrett and Kyle attempt to fathom this, Japanese McDonald’s was also forced to end their Pokemon Happy Meal tie-in early. Gamescom is tomorrow, and World of Warcraft is set to show its newest cinematic for Midnight. Dandadan, Alien: Earth, and so much more.
The World of Warcraft news cycle has begun with the approach of their Midnight expansion Cinematic. WoW plans to get rid of Addons, going the FFXIV route and freeing themselves of their ever escalating arms race. WoW has also claimed massive success with their recent One Button rotation option. Final Fantasy XIV has sales down by 23%, but what does that even mean? We watched Kpop Demon Hunters, Dandadan and more.
Lets’s Talk About Star Wars
The Kenobi Series wraps up it final episode ever...maybe? Leia finds a use for her holster. And Aunt Beru ain't who you wanna be messin' with, ya hear? Join hosts Garrett Weinzierl, Jennie Josephson, and Tom Merritt as they talk about why this episode rocks!
Garrett Weinzierl squeels for 48 minutes, Tom Merritt contemplates the lack of the Empire's strategy, and Jennie Josephson extolls the badassery of young Leia. Also, enough with the assumed parallels, we're given cutscenes that parallel the action in a beautiful dance.
