Listened to it at work today, very good stuff. Looking forward to hearing the next!

[Bridger]

The second episode just went up!  I've updated the first post to reflect this.  It will be updated each week with the current episode.  

Also note that next sunday @ 8pm we are going to start recording the show "live!" for fun.  Details to be revealed on the website later this week: www.talesoftyria.com

I'm going to listen to it right now, thanks Bridger!

----------

Will there be a part 2?

Hey again, sorry to badger you so much. I did use the manual method to subscribe to the podcast using computer Itunes.

Sadly this method does not work for direct WiFi downloading on Ipod. I really hope you get the podcast approved or whatever, good luck.

Until then, I will transfer from computer to Ipod XD.

Had an issue with the upload temporarily.  It has been corrected (should be 99mb and 86 mins long).

I figured out the problem and got it submitted to iTunes.  Once they approve it I'll post the updated iTunes link in the top post and on the website.

Gotcha. Downloading now. :-)

iTunes accepted the podcast.  You can now subscribe here: http://itunes.apple....ia/id472001672#

Yay! On iTunes, and it's no longer cut off at 40 mins! awesome.

Concerning the "inverts will hate GW2 because they won't be able to play a role that guarantees invites into groups" as brought up in the first episode and that they will hate it because it's build on community and not on solo play I say that GW2 will be invert-heaven!

Because you won't be required to actually team up with other players, you just get into reach of other players and you automatically play the same content as a group. No need to communicate, no need to say Hi in team-chat, no need to deal with any of those playing next to you. You just run in, get the full team-help experience without any of the scary getting to know anyone.


Great first episode, btw, I'll keep listening.

Good stuff mate, but I have to say one of your guy didn't research properly. Only if you kill your opponent, you will get back up with HP. Otherwise both the players go to downed state.

That's not a bad point actually, there's something for everyone! :P  Except maybe Raiders...but that's another podcast :P

Yup, we missed that one.  We corrected it at the beginning of episode 2.  Thanks for pointing it out though, can't let these kinds of things slip through!

[~PolarisNova~]

Loved the second episode Bridger, I was listening to it whilst 'grinding' in GW ;) You guys made me chuckle a few times.

Looking forward to the next one!

[Megera]

Great job, guys. I'm also one of those people that don't usually listen to podcasts, but I'll be eagerly waiting for the next episode. Really enjoyed it. :)

[Massive Jawbone]

Another thing, Bridger, you speak the intro if I hear that right.
You have considerable voice talent, if I may say so. Your voice is very convincing and has character. Did you ever consider working in that field?

Cool, haven't listened to your 2nd episode...will do that shortly while munching on my lunch.

Yes, I get that a lot.  I had thought of it, but don't know where to begin, especially in Connecticut.  I've also heard it's a very competitive industry (voice-work) and very tough to get work in.

[Nemui]

yay my point was actually mentioned in episode 2!
awesome podcast... :D

[Devildoll]

Listening to and loving episode 2 now!

Not if you are not getting paid you're not. ;)

I brought that up because I am currently fed up with a certain YouTube celeb I sub who repeticiously insists to be a fabulous voice actor because his voice is somewhat unique and because he does VO jobs here and there. He's a TALENT at least, able to bring comedic voices to the recording session but having an interesting voice does not make a voice actor, you have to be able to ACT with it. I believe I have a good ear for that having studied audio engineering once. I had to listen to tons of amateur singers and speakers in the studio. :) And you were totally convincing AND sounded great in that intro. If you expand that character or even create a few more it could only be a good thing.

You might want to ask around in the gaming community for machinima creators or indie gaming studios to do free VO's for a spot in the credits and bragging rights for starters and apply for radio commercials and such, maybe it takes off to TV, movies, big games or live radio. You never know. :)

Actually IMO if you want to get paid.. start with donations. Start small. : P

If you frequently do this, just put up a "donate to me" box and forget about it. It's best if you don't start focusing on the money.

(Not contradicting you there Mr. Jawbone, Sir!) <--yes I said that on purpose.. I couldn't help saying that.. it just seemed.. so appropriate XD

Would that I had the time!  Between trying to keep up with GW2 forums, Company of Heroes forums, Recording Tales of Tyria, Recording Tales of Heroes, and working at my real "they pay me for this" job, there's not much time left over!

It's why I've hesitated dealing with advertising or anything like that for past shows.  I know that I produce the best content when I'm doing it because I'm passionate about the subject.  I don't want this to turn into "work."

Donate button might be in the works.  We're going to get a few more episodes out though before we even start thinking about that.  I want to make sure everything's running smoothly :)  And we're already iterating on our product :P  Next week's show not only will have video, but it will be LIVE video.  Sheesh!

[Voidmare]

...Wow, you're definitely pampering us, aren't you LOL >: P

Looking forward to it mate!

@Mr. Jawbone - sent you a pm : P

Not really liking the Battlefield talk. But the Guild Wars 2 stuff is good.

I'm getting a few people saying this.  Maybe we'll put the "other game" talk at the end of the show instead from now on.  This week will not even have any if there's any news to talk about.

[Easyryder]

I know you mentioned this in your 2nd podcast that you will discus about dungeons, but can you guys discuss the potential of having the same 5 man dungeon scale to 10 man or 25 man? Of-course keeping the rewards same. One feature to add will be to have leaderboards for each version so PVE guilds can compete against each other.
