This episode, recorded on December 21, 2013, is the final episode of the calendar year. In it, Aristeia and myself chat about the Wintersday celebration in Guild Wars 2, discuss how one can craft Ascended Armor in the game and what the benefits and drawbacks of it are, and talk a little about some “alternative” Christmas gift ideas one might consider for geeks and gamers here at the last minute. And we do all of this in a Skype chat, which allows you to see who’s talking and provides a bit more of a personal atmosphere (which seems fitting for the holidays)! I think this is a good format and one we will pursue in addition to others in season 5 (like, instead of an image, there might be a game in the background, etc).
