The Multiverse – Episode #10: “Linear, Shminear!”

Filed Under: ii. podcast
Mar.07, 2010

Hey Gang,

Well, we made it into the double digits! Join us this week as we celebrate hitting our 10th episode, with the help of our friends in the chat room!

This show was a blast to record. It was full of laughs and good spirits, as we talked about what we’ve been playing and our thoughts on this “add 10 levels with every expansion” business. Is that how it has to be and how did we get to this point?

If you get the chance, check out our Live Stream. I was struck by some strange muse and decided to skin a furby. Yep, this is what you miss when you grab the download! :-)

From all of us though, really, thanks for making the last 10 episodes a blast. Your listenership means a lot to all of us and has made the idea of “MMO Radio” a lot more real. Here’s to another 10! *cheers*

The Multiverse – Episode #9: “Guest Starring: Syp”

Filed Under: ii. podcast
Mar.01, 2010

Happy Monday, folks!

To help you start your week off right, we bring you Episode 9 of The Multiverse and, in my opinion, our best episode yet. We were joined by Syp, from Bio Break (Sypiest. Episode. Ever!) and had a good time talking all things MMORPG.

Join us this week for a interview with Syp, as well as our short-term and long-term predictions for the future of MMORPGs. Of course, we also talk about the week’s news (*cough* Allod’s *cough*) and have some fun discussing games and movies past.

We also change things up a little bit and turn Ferrel’s Guild Tip of the Week into Uncle Ferrel’s Story Hour. By request! See, you can’t say we don’t listen. :-)

The Multiverse – Episode #8: “Ringing in the Weekly Show”

Filed Under: ii. podcast
Feb.22, 2010

Welcome to weekly!

It seems too quick to be presenting Episode 8 but here we are! Episode 8 is a little different from The Multiverse you’re used to, though, so here’s what you can expect.

Episode 8 is the “Little Show.” To change things up between releases, we’ll be alternating between our regular format and the more conversational, stripped down, format you’ll hear here. Pretty much, the little shows will be slightly shorter and focus in on a main topic or two, while we keep the host segments for the main show.  We’re still going to be hitting the news and feature everything else you’ve told us you enjoy.

We also have some other big news to accompany this release. Starting this Friday, we’ll be broadcasting our shows LIVE courtesy of Livestream. You can check out our feed over on our Vagary page by clicking on “listen live.” Tune in at 7PM EST, every Friday, to hear us record and join in the chat room.

* What’s our most memorable MMO moment? – Thanks Jeremy!

-  Sentinel’s Fate launched – how’d it go?
-  Allod’s Online’s cash shop blunder
-  Dante’s Inferno – better than God of War?

The Multiverse – Episode #6: “Guest Starring: Karen”

Filed Under: ii. podcast
Feb.01, 2010
How you know when you've made it big...

How to know when you've made it big... Scientific American, baby.

Aloha, dear readers,

We’re on schedule this week, and present you with Episode Six of The Multiverse podcast! We were joined by Karen from A View From the Top and Shut Up, We’re Talking podcasts, as well as the Journey’s With Jaye blog.

In honor of her stopping by, we decided to talk about guilds and what they mean to players and in the MMOs they’re a part of. We also talk a little bit about Everquest 2 and the upcoming battleground system. We decided to change up the usual host segments a little bit, so we also spent a little time talking about the changing definition of F2P and Ferrel’s recent trials with Blizzard, after they’d banned the account he’d just had restored and secured… for exploiting!

I think this is one of our best shows yet and we here would like to know what you think too. Give us your thoughts in a comment, iTunes review, or send us an email. We’d like to expand the show and can’t do it without your help, so join in and be a part of our crew!

Here are the notes for Episode Six:

The Multiverse – Episode #5: “Semi-Intelligent Manchild”

Filed Under: ii. podcast
Jan.19, 2010

Hi Everyone,

manchild2

The manchild

For your listening pleasure, we give you the day late Episode 5 of The Multiverse. We had a lot of fun recording this one but we went about it a little bit differently. Rather than highly editing everything, we approached it like we were live. Behind the scenes, these episodes usually take me about three hours to produce. This is our effort to cut that down to about an hour, so please let me know what you think and which way you prefer the show. I think it came out good.

Be sure to tune in after the ending music for a couple of bonus segments. During the first we talk about the Dante’s Inferno demo (well, to be fair, it’s mostly me gushing and trying to convince Ferrel to try it, but some funny stuff comes out of it). Second, we give you a sneak peak into what happens between the segments…

Oh, and about the title… well, you’ll have to listen to the bonus parts to get that, I guess. ;-)

The Multiverse – Episode #1

Filed Under: ii. podcast
Nov.23, 2009

Here we go, our first effort at a podcast. I think it came out pretty well but I learned a few important lessons in the trying.

  • I shouldn’t talk so much

  • Don’t interrupt Ferrel so much

  • Editing out tangents takes a long time

Hehe. Anyways, I hope you enjoy it. We hung out and talked for a while after the show even, so we definitely had a good time making it. Our next recording date is December 4th and I can honestly say I’m looking forward to it.


Check out out Vagary page, linked below. Send any questions, comments, things you’d like us to talk about, or guest suggestions to Chris@gamebynight.com. We’d also love a review on iTunes, if you’re so inclined.

Enjoy!
