This week we talk about the week's BIG story of all RPGs having to live up to the stratospheric standards of the best video game EVER (not called Zelda), Baldur's Gate 3.

Is it a non-story needed to fill a quiet time in the games industry?
Are media outlets unreasonable to expect "all" RPGs to aspire to deliver to the Baldur's Gate 3 standard?
Should we expect this from "all" game developers?

This time round, given the lack of accessibility options in Starfield and based on the tiny text settings in some games Keith has been playing, we talk about what settings should be standardised across all Triple AAA games.

And McWomble mentions  LauraKBuzz  a lot.

Do game designers think we are more stupid than we used to be?
This week Berkough wants to talk about modern game design being too involved in puzzle solving.

This week Evan isn't on but we steal his suggestion for a topic. We go through games that were a commercial and/or critical disaster and suggest how they could have been avoided.

Can you guess what we might stop from turning into a 'live service'?
