Axe of the Blood God is our weekly RPG podcast hosted by Kat Bailey and Nadia Oxford. You can find the previous episodes here.
If E3 2018 has proven anything, the end of the generation is nearly upon us. Nadia and I tackle that and more as we wrap up E3 2018 from an RPG perspective [download link here].
Nadia and I talk about Starfield, Elder Scrolls, and maybe even Cyberpunk being on the next generation of consoles; what it's like to interview Tetsuya Nomura, and why Pokemon Let's Go proves that Pokemon's random encounters have to die. Then we go to sleep, because it's been a very long show. Okay, not really, we're actually about to be busier than ever. Find out why!
