I'm live with more Hades 2, where I'm gonna try out Hard Mode on each of the second bosses so you can enjoy my suffering! And while I'm here I'm also gonna try the Zombie-flavored Takis, because why not? Come join me!

BG3 is DONE! Now for the second half of Double Credits Day, Hades 2! Come joins me for these last two runs (hopefully I don’t die on either of them 😅)

Chewie of The Mana Pool @themanapool.bsky.social · 13d

Then tonight's stream will be Hades 2, which is just the beginning of the long journey with that game, but it is still rolling the credits! This will begin around 8:30pm and last until I'm done. Hope you'll come join me for my Double Credits Day over on Twitch!

I didn't get the achievement for beating the game, so I'm not done yet! Starting the stream early to finish up the epilogue and officially be done! After that, Hades 2! Come join me!

I finished BG3! Been a minute since I wept openly on stream, that was nice. Sadly I didn’t get through the epilogue, so my stream will begin early tonight so I can do that before I move on to Hades 2! 😁

Chewie of The Mana Pool @themanapool.bsky.social · 13d

Today is Double Credits Day! I'm going to roll credits on two of the best games I have ever played in two streams on the same day! First up is Baldur's Gate 3, which marks the end of an amazing long journey with this truly excellent game. That will run today from noon-4pm or so

I got wins against Chronos with the last 3 weapons I needed tonight! AND I beat him with all the different Arcana cards! I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH! Thanks for the excellent sequel to my favorite roguelike ever @supergiantgames.bsky.social!

I played the demo for Marvel Cosmic Invasion! It feels awesome, which is to be expected from the folks behind TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge. My team was Nova and She-Hulk, who played differently enough for me to not remotely get bored for those two levels. Can’t wait for the full release 😁

Supply Lines is our series on resource management in games, because ALL games are just different styles of resource management dressed up in fancy genre pants depending on the type of game, and we want to discuss that!

The dorks are live! This TMP episode is all about notable or infamous fictional books! That is, books that only exist in fiction, not books that are fiction. You get it, I don't have to explain. Think the Necronomicon, or Hitchhiker's Guide. Anyway, come join us!
