Live Letter 87 has concluded and it came with a LOT of very interesting information! The first half has caused big waves in the community, after Yoshi-P said that a Forked Tower normal version was scrapped because of 'costs'. What does that mean? - We discuss that as well as the actual exciting new stuff coming with patch 7.3 like the new dungeon, deep dungeon, Echoes of Vana'diel part 2 and more! Welcome!

We also discuss the preorder for a new second cookbook, Downtown LA Gathering, and viewer feedback on Occult Cresc...
