The Pogcast (Veritas)

Thank you all for the 100 episodes! The feedback to the Pogcast has been incredible and we are thankful for all of you!  On this episode we talk through all the Tarkov events that are happening  and what it is doing to the game and the community. There are a lot of  firsts happening and there could be some really cool stuff coming. On  the other hand it has brought out some of the most toxic people in the  community and they have been souring the experience for a lot of people.  Whether you love or hate the event we should hear something more from  BSG soon! We also talk through the journey of getting to 100 episodes  and reflect on our time with a new game we played together called  Marauders!
