    Episode 79: Dungeons and Dragons

    We take a brave step out of our video game comfort zone for this episode, as we discuss the global nerdy sensation, Dungeons and Dragons. We delve into its history, rising from the heady years of the 1970s, looking at it as both a business, and as a favourite pastime for legions of fans and content creators alike.

    Episode 78: God of War (2018) & Ragnarok

    On this episode we dwell on that most violent of video game protagonists, Kratos, as we discuss the latest two games in his much storied franchise. We discuss these games' positions as both sequels and reboots, and their intimate character work and stellar combat, while also wondering if maybe they went too far in certain places.

    Episode 76: Final Fantasy XVI

    Episode 76: Final Fantasy XVI

    This episode takes a look at 16th entry in the beloved Final Fantasy series, a game that ended up being quite divisive due to the big swings it takes against the established formula of the franchise. Topics bounce between exhilarating kaiju battles, to milquetoast side quests. From amazing voice acting and localisation, to a story that tends to spin its wheels. There are no major spoilers for the game, but the whole story is covered in vague terms in order to pick out the things that work in this game, and the things that really don't.

    Episode 74: The Wii

    Episode 74: The Wii

    Transport back to the days of waggling remotes, as we take a look at Nintendo's colossal console success story, the Wii. We get nostalgic about playing Wii Sports on Christmas morning, soaring through the cosmos in Super Mario Galaxy, and much more. But we also question the Wii's legacy, and we wonder, despite its success, did it actually change the industry for the better?
