  1. Less Highguard, More Bye-Guard

    Less Highguard, More Bye-Guard

    Matt and Nick tackle the truly important cultural debates — like whether a trip to Frankie & Benny’s can ever stack up to the chaotic carb paradise of Olive Garden — before pouring one out for the closure of Highguard. On the gaming front, there’s unexpected love for Pokémon Pokopia, questions as to our time with World of Warcraft as of late, and early thoughts on Bungie’s extraction shooter revival, Marathon. It’s comfort food, comfort games, and a little existential MMO fatigue — all in one tidy chat.

From romance novels and tabletop RPGs to Diablo IV on Steam Deck and Overwatch 2’s big shake-up, the duo dive into FOMO, subscriptions, raiding with friends, and why the worth of a game is always personal. It’s an honest chat about playing what you love — and knowing when to step away.

    RPGs, JRPGs, and Starting Over Again

    This week on Backlog Breakers, Nick and Matt chat about what they’ve been playing lately, from Final Fantasy and the joys (and struggles) of RPG storytelling to restarting tough games and getting unexpectedly hooked on AFK Journey. Things get silly with a game built around weird Steam reviews, touching on everything from Stardew Valley to No Man’s Sky, before wrapping up with some thoughts on what they’re playing next and why gaming communities matter so much.
