The Grinding Gear Podcast

Games approach! Xbox Developer Direct, Switch 2, and games-that-feel-safe-from GTA. Garrett and Kyle also enter the news cycle of FF14 and find it full of assumptions. The odd thing is that all these assumptions are true, but it does make for some odd coverage. We do have some facts though. 7.2 live letter approaches and the next big wave of content prepares to hit the game. Emails and more.

Games! So many games. Three presentations worth of games to be exact. Sony State of Play, Xbox Showcase and Summer Games Fest have all cruised by and it’s time to review. Stand outs? The dregs? The ups the downs. Listen to find out. Will there be hat eating? Could be.

Wilds and Wyoming! Garrett and Kyle return from giving a lecture at the University of Wyoming and tell stories of their journey. Garrett got touched by snow, Kyle praises Steamdeck. Wilds Chapter 3 spoiler warning! We have a passionate chat about the story so far in Wilds and it’s hits and misses. T-rex doesn’t want to be fed, he wants to hunt. Yoshi-P is “stepping down”, “fired” or none of the above. In fact we have some hot FF14 news thats about as scandalous as the sun rising. All this and more.

Long time requested guest Rurikhan joins the episode for a massive Monster Hunter breakdown. New players Garrett and Kyle get a glimpse at the development history and evolution of the franchise as we approach the much anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds release. Pack with tips, tricks and stories for Hunters of every level (in particular for the Worlds players out there). Supportourbromance.com or knights will be dispatched for failed investigations!
