Heyo! I’m writing this after bingeing the first five episodes over the course of two days 🫠
Old_townsouth and his ride-or-die bud, TrueBatman, are off to a great start with this podcast! They help keep you up-to-date with changes that happen in patches, shifting metas, tips and tricks, and share stories of successful exfils… and crushing defeats. All while keeping it clean, which I appreciate! I especially enjoyed episode four when they were able to bring in Fallin, a lights-out player who they met in-game who added his own super valuable insight on Marathon to the discussion.
As a fellow working man with several mouths to feed, I have a hard time consistently finding time for Marathon, a game that greatly benefits from consistent play. I worry I’m missing out on the higher level stuff as that June reset approaches. Even though I love the game and have been playing since day one, I haven’t even hit 30 hours yet. Sometimes I feel like I’m being left in the dust by the “sweats”. It can be discouraging!
And that brings me to my favorite thing about the podcast and why I’ll try to catch every episode for as long as they keep coming out: old_townsouth’s relentless positivity and good-sportsmanship through the highs and lows of the game. It’s cliché, but I’ve realized the game isn’t about the loot deep in Cryo, the loot at the top of Pinwheel, or the contract-salvage in the dreaded Qaurantine, it’s about the adventures you have with your fellow Runners on the way.
Keep up the good work guys! Sorry my review got so cheesy. Belated congrats on becoming a father!
