Slay that spire of mods
As is fast becoming a thing on RPS this week, Alice Bee and James are both away this week, so I’m filling in writing this post and doing my best Alice impression in the process. In this week’s episode, The Electronic Wireless Showpodcasttalks all things mods - specifically, the ones that got real big and broke out from their respective source games. It’s a chat that’s been prompted by the developers behind Slay The Spire mod Downfallannouncing their own brand-new game, Tales & Tactics.
There’s also a lot of undead fish chat, and Alice’s plans for entertaining herself on an upcoming long-haul flight. And in James' hardware corner, the gang chat about Nvidia’s comments on AI and crypto, as well as Ubisoft’s AI writing software tool thinger.
