Currently Playing - 24 - Baldur's Gate 3 with Aysha Farah

About this episode

Aysha Farah joins the podcast to discuss her experiences with Baldur's Gate 3 and share insights on the game.

Aysha Farah (writer of Life is Strange, Pathologic, Hiveswap and so much more) and podcaster with Workers' Lit and All My Maidens stopped by to talk about exactly how deep down the rabbit hole she's gone with Baldur's Gate 3. From her first run to her recent completion (?) of the For Honor Mode, we get into a game that both she and Daniel love and how it could be improved because not everything is perfect. This one is for the real Baldur's Gate 3 sickos. Also as a warning, the episode does contain a few narrative spoilers for some of the main quests in Baldur's Gate 3. 0:00:00 - Welcome to the Show, Aysah! 0:12:02 - What Are You Playing?
