They got greedy, no surprise there.So stay awhile and listen as Matt and Mike do this again and talk about random stuff for 20 minutes before the actual topic. WOW!If you have any questions or suggestions for lore pieces that you want explored, don't hesitate to email us at NoobGuidingNoob@gmail.com.

11. Dragon Age: The Blight

Oh baby, new episode that isn't Mass Effect. Except its Bioware's other game Dragon age. I feel this will be a smaller chunk of lore than Mass Effect or Elder Scrolls. (Thank god!)In this episode Mike talks us through one of the major points of the dragon age games called "the Blight". Darkspawn, archdemons, and more, maybe...probably yes. We hope you enjoy the episode, if you don't that's your problem.If you have any questions or suggestions for lore pieces that you want explored, don't hesitate to email us at NoobGuidingNoob@gmail.com.

Come on down and rest those weary ears from listening to nothing but Mass Effect and Elder Scrolls lore... HEY! perk up listener you still have to listen to this one so you can disagree with our opinions that are actually facts. Our words are absolute because this is our podcast.

9. Andromeda and not so beyond!

Welcome to the FINAL EPISODE of mike talking about the lore of the Mass Effect series...for now?In this correctly shorter episode mike talks of the Kett and what they are about as they are one of the main antagonists of the not so greatly received game, Mass Effect: Andromeda. Supposedly not much is known of these creatures? The Kett are the primary antagonists in Mass Effect: Andromeda, known for their brutal tactics and genetic experimentation. I don't exactly remember how much he goes into the Kett, but for sure he talks about them. SO sit, drive, cry, and listen to the end of Mass Effect for now.

8. Khajiit do the "meow" and "rawr".

Out of all the races of Elder Scrolls to cover, I decided to start with the Khajiit. Why? I could not tell you because I don't have that answer, I never do. Nevertheless here we go!On this episode we dive into the Khajiit race of the Elder Scrolls series. One of the many unique races of peoples, they are a fascinating topic of conversation if you know what to look for. From how new kittens are born to how they were treated as lower classed species for a long time, the Khajiit like many others do have an interesting history of how they actually came to be in Tamriel. With their feline features and impressive athleticism, they have a distinct culture and history in Tamriel, despite facing prejudice as skilled thieves and excellent merchants.If you have any questions or suggestions for lore pieces that you want explored, don't hesitate to email us at NoobGuidingNoob@gmail.com.

7. Asari & Protheans & Reapers, oh my!

The Finality of major Mass Effect lore to know. Asari the blue sexy aliens, Protheans the quad eyed psychos, and Reapers, the even more psychotic ancient alien race. Being able to trace how the Mass Effect game series is introduced to newcomers are these three races. Its time we get to know them a little.Join us again as we explore three of the most intriguing species in the Mass Effect universe: the Asari, Protheans, and Reapers. We discuss their unique characteristics, history, and their significance in shaping the galaxy. Why the Protheans seem to be gods amongst men, and then why reapers are even bigger sociopathic gods amongst those men. In addition we talk a little about the even bigger more ancient species that existed before the reapers...the Leviathans. So listen and listen good because I said so.If you have any questions or suggestions for lore pieces that you want explored, don't hesitate to email us at NoobGuidingNoob@gmail.com
