The background fan noise shuts off about 6 minutes in, don’t worry.  We didn’t even know we were making a podcast until the end of this episode anyway, a mic just happened to be on while we were talking about the game we were just playing. 

Alex had only played about a quarter of the game, Tony had played all of the game.  An odd conversation ensues, including plot vs mechanics, tiptoeing around spoilers, and a healthy dose of wild speculation.  

That being said, SPOILERS AHEAD.
