Thanks again for having me on the show! It was interesting to get the various perspectives of the new expansion but also the current state of gameplay.

A big second to fixing the issue in Locked Away Part 2. Took me and a few folks 3 runs to figure out what the bug was.

Good review from all of these peeps! Agree on the overly bleak visual, but I also agree on the size being good for the wilderness. Not so big that teleporters are that big of a deal (IMO). I still haven't played any of the missions other than Bodysnatchers (just too lag-phobic right now...)

Commentary on lag was good too. I have been running on Thrane vs. Shadowdale because it is for me slightly less bad on Thrane. Still not good, but able to knock out some slayer without too much worry. I was able to run a few sets of quests the other night without much consequence as well (just gotta run stuff on off times..)
