Divinity How could Larian possibly top Baldur's Gate 3? Well......

Good Morning Coindroppers! Today Chris is back with us as we discuss a new Extraction like game that has thrown it's hat into the already over crowded arena. With Steel Hunters sunsetting in less that 6 months after launch, and Dungeonborne within it's first year it's a mystery to me as to why people are STILL making extractions. Mistfall Hunter Launching into early access sometime...

Good Morning CoinDroppers! I'm happy to announce that I met my goal and managed to crank this bad boy out! It was a LOT of work and a lot of long nights grinding away at the computer to edit. Just a warning, the audio quality is NOT the best. We did what we could in post but we were trying to capture the voices of three people on one very directional microphone. I hope it's at least pass...
