Baldurs Gate 3 Will be Game of the Year

The crew has found some news that actually has them excited! They are bringing back Dungeons and Dragons 1st Edition. There is plenty to talk about because the book promises to be over 500 pages with some great little features that will have even the old school fan boy drooling. Then the cew decides to break down one of systems that seems to have gone by the waysside pondering if it will even make it into the new edition. The alignment system. Some players use it as a crutch while others forget it even exist until the oppurtunity arrises to use one of the most hated phrases in all of DnD; "It is what my character would do!". Finally, can you conterspell the Wild Magic Surge from Wild Magic Sorcerers? Just because the Pirate Captain's favortie Game Designer says you can does that mean you should be able to? The Crew goes 3 to 1 on this debate and someone walks the plank for it.

We saw it, we called, you're trying to hide it, #WotC, but we aren't going to let it go that easily! On today's episode, we tackle the rumor of Hasbro selling #D&D, how classes just aren't up to snuff in #5thedition or the revamped 2024 PHB, and how outside content and suggestions could be a good thing for the brand as a whole. Is Tencent purchasing the D&D name? Would a Summoner or Alchemist class benefit the game at all? Can suggestions and actual down-to-earth survey results save our beloved game? And what do you guys think about our name!? Seriously, let us know in the comment s below! All that and more on this episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!

The crew are back at it tryinng to figure out what makes them different from other channels. They are not famous, they aren't Publishers, to really call them a crew might be laughable. They are just players across the table from you. Once they figure that out they decide to take a look at some of the lesser played classes in #dungeonsanddragons and how #baldersgate3 helped them to become relevant. Was it because the classes were always good or is there a factor that only BG3 can pull off. What about having a party without a healer? Is there a way it can be done or is it just a lost cause. A writer put togethera few ways to do this and the crew look to figure out if it would work. Finally is the bell tolling for #wotc? The crew looks at the history of the game and try to decide will it ever recover. If you found this episode entertaining, enlightening or just down right ridiculous please like and subscribe to the the channel. As always Happy Adventures!

It's a very bloody Orcmas for Hasbro and WotC! Layoffs and longtime content creators both are gone from the D&D sphere and the Crew pours one out while also discussing the trials and tribulations of corporate issues that may be hampering our favorite game. Are there any brightsides to the layoffs at Hasbro? Will JoCat ever return to YouTube? How does the margin of profit affect the product we consume as gamers? Has Mr. Producer bitten off more than he can chew with his Avatar the Last Airbender D&D campaign? And is Bolgg really the bard and Loc has just been pretending!? All that and more on this episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!

Do not go gentle into those good survey results. Rage. Rage! In this episode of Recipes for Everything, the Crew talks about the newest survey results for the Barbarian and Monk, as well as a topic found in a forum post. Will the new barbarian cause a shift in Bolgg's character sheet? Will the monk finally be able to fight fair? Does a problem with character playing fall on the player or the DM? And will Mr. Producer finally be released from his basement prison?! All that and more on this episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!

He was just a fleeting dream, that fighter wielding the dead baby nunchucks. With the newest celebration of mediocrity from Wizards we learn that the most interesting concept from the Fighter survey is no more! We again dive deep and talk about the results, the Crew becoming ever more exhausted by the newest edition. Will the replacement for the Bruiser be any good? What other changes are in store before the new books come out? And did Bolgg cook his traditional Thanksgiving feast of Turhalfelfducken!? All that and more on this episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!

Astarion approves! With six Golden Joysticks, the Crew has to go back to the Baldur's Gate well once again! Plus, with the new survey results and Marvel and Fallout coming to Magic the Gathering, they talk about how Wizards seems to be ignoring what players want. Can the Hulk and Deadpool be tournament-legal Commanders? How much has the survey results actually amounted to? What can game studios learn from the favorite for the Game of the Year? And does Bolgg remember to make a big announcement at the end of the episode!? All that and more in this episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!

What do marketing strategies, data analysis, and fireball have in common? They can make an absolute mess of things! In this episode, the Crew tackles a minefield of topics ranging from the newest addition to the D&D lore, the problems with over-selling the inclusive nature of your product, and finally getting on with the live reaction to the latest playtest survey! Do Wizard's strategies hold any weight on what players actually want? Is the introduction of the first canonical autistic character to D&D lore inclusion or merely pandering? And is Loc actually a multiversal entity hellbent on destroying the fabric of reality by endlessly toying with the Pirate Captain's nerves and sanity until he ultimately concocts a method of total rending of space-time and deploys it in an effort to finally rid himself of the nightmares and voices caused by the bard's baleful bickering? Probably not, but at least there's a new episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!

There was a big hub-bub about Wizards dropping Penguin Publishing House this week and the guys break down how, for once, this is not a bad move on Wizards. This may even benifit the player depending on how distrobution rolls out. Will the Bastion, player housing, system be an excelent way to spend your downtime or will you forget about it 30 secs in because it offers nothing? What are the upsides to it and how can the warehouse feature of the Bastion be broken with one magical item? All this and more on this episode of Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captains Recipe's for Everything!

Has he done it!? Has he become the legendary Super Swashbuckler!? In this episode, the Pirate Captain's fury knows no bounds as the Crew discusses the changes to the Sorcerer in the latest Unearthed Arcana survey. What changes to the Sorcerer are any good? Has Wizards messed with Twin Spell to make it nigh unusable? And will Super Swashbuckler PC be able to defeat the dice tyrant Loc once and for all!? All that and more in this episode of Dragon Ball Z...I mean Chef Bolgg and the Pirate Captain's Recipes for Everything!
