The Classic Gamers Guild Podcast Anna & Paul

This week Anna & Paul are joined by Ryan Slattery of Slatt Studio to discuss the pros and cons of text parser and the pros and cons of point and click, but like, comparatively. I guess it's parser vs point and click but idk, the "vs" gives it like a grudge match kinda vibe and we didn't really frame it like one of them has to win and the other lose. Here, let's start over with an overtly intellectual vibe: 
 
This week your hosts are joined by one R. J. Slattery to discuss - Exegesis on Interactive Paradigms: The Dialectical Tension Between Point-and-Click Interfaces and Text-Parser Mechanisms in Digital Ludology.
 
Ah very good. That was most better. Mangia!

This week Anna & Paul are talking character design and are answering some super fun questions such as: Who's the most cosplayable character? If you had to dress like an adv game character for a month, who would it be? Which villain dressed the most villainy? What 2 characters would you freaky Friday? And a ton more, like, too much more. So join in as they get actually pretty bitchy in discussing adventure game fashion choices, it's a real good time. Mangia!

This week Anna & Paul reimagine some classic adventures as period correct TV sitcoms. Imagine Laura Bow having her own weekly whodunit series, Gabriel Knight starring in his own X-Files or shek this out, how about Leisure Suit Larry has a show right, and he lives with his mom who's like the Muppet Babies mom or wait no, she's like Howard Wolfowitz's mom, and anyway Larry keeps trying to get how would you say... his loins tended to, and it never works out kinda like how it nothing ever worked out for Al Bundy and so in the end he's always just back home with his mom. This episode, is that but like, more better. It's actually pretty listenable, you'll see, you'll all see. Mangia!

This week Anna & Paul are the sequel police because they're talking about sequels and frankly, how, what else would we call it, this is an adventure game podcast. Okay, so we've established that policing or otherwise work regarding crime solving will not be involved in the episode, what else? Oh so, we basically go through the games that had planned sequels and briefly discuss what they could have looked like but mostly, we mostly pitch each other sequels we want and what they might have been about. Or bean about if you're Anna. And you might be! She actually, she reads these for some reason. Okay go listen this one was super fun,  Mangia!

This week Anna & Paul bring you the Sierra Remake Comparison IV: This One Isn't Even Sierra. Look, you all asked us about Loom and we finally answered. We also made sense of what exactly was being weaved, all while comparing the original EGA version to the VGA and FM Towns remake. Join us as we present to you our flimsy arguments as to which is the best while Paul upsets the LucasArts fans by constantly referring to the protagonist as Bobbin Threepbare and Bobbin Threadwood, possibly by accident, frankly I'm not so sure. Mangia!

This week Anna & Paul are joined by the magician I mean musician, Erik Elsom, the talented man behind Magic Map Studio and they are discussing King's Quest VI: Having Hair is Human. They chat about the game as if to verbally play it for you which typing that out, it's amazing anybody listens to this show. But you do! And this episode is a lot of fun, probably, if I'm honest, I'm typing this like an hour before recording. Oh man, I hope this didn't jinx it... Nah, it, it's gonna be fine. You'll see, you're about to see. Mangia!
