This week on the Game Deflators Podcast, hosts John and Ryan explore the latest rules and monetization strategies in Dungeons and Dragons. The guys also discuss the final nail in the coffin of the Wii U and Nintendo's efforts to protect its intellectual properties by taking on the internet and Rule 34. For the main discussion, John shares his experiences at Crit Hit AZ and explains why it's a must-attend event for those in the valley. To wrap up the episode, John and Ryan review One Piece Grand Battle for the Nintendo GameCube. Despite being a bit dated, this fighting game from the One Piece franchise still holds some charm.

Our beloved Book Club has already featured one Great Novel that was kind of a snooze, and one International Bestseller that completely sucked. But who's to say? What makes a book great, and what makes it “a classic,” and - most importantly - how can we sound smart at parties when literature comes up? The University of Chicago's Dr. Timothy Campbell is here to sort it all out. Plus, open wide - it's time for another tasty round of Potluck Info Party!

We follow that up with "Days of Blight" by Matt Rauscher, an adventure module available from the DMs Guild for $9.95.
