    How covering DOOM is weird, the state of the MCU, and moving past developer pedigrees

    It's a potpourri episode this week, as we combined our "what we've been playing" session with some casual chat we had on air during last stream's recording. So, it's a good mix of game impressions, movie talk, and answering a great question about what we want to see developers of beloved series try to do next.  MORE PLACES TO FIND USCrubscribe ► https://bit.ly/CrubcastGet the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crubOur Crubcasts are recorded LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/crub_official every Tuesday at 7pm Eastern, with EXCLUSIVE Pre- and Post-ShowsJoin our Discord ► https://crub.org/joinBlueSky ► https://bsky.app/profile/crub.orgCome join our Steam group ► https://steamcommunity.com/groups/crubclubPodcasts are available on Apple, Google, Spotify, and other platforms are available at ► https://crub.org SHOW NOTESCat Mail Co.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4380490/Cat_Mail_Co/ Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon (game provided by the publisher)https://store.steampowered.com/app/1466060/Tainted_Grail_The_Fall_of_Avalon/ Desktop Explorer (code provided by the publisher)https://store.steampowered.com/app/2527160/Desktop_Explorer/ TODAY'S CRUBCAST HOSTSCassandra: https://www.youtube.com/@ThatTravGuyChris: https://www.youtube.com/@MykonosFanMoriarty: https://www.youtube.com/@reallycool CHAPTERS00:00 Time warped...01:00 Covering the new Doom DLC is very weird15:22 Anyway, Cat Mail Co.!

    Why do people leak video games?

    In enthusiast spaces, video game leaks are as common as water. Why do people leak things? When is it okay, when is it not? Why do people follow it so fervently and get so emotionally invested in how they pan out?

    Games with weird fanbases

    Fanbases are great! Passionate, kind, lovely people showing their support and loyalty to the things they enjoy. However...a lot of the weird, toxic, strange, offputting, and detestable stuff tends to rise to the top. Today, we honor the latter. While also finally giving the official Super Drunkey Ball rules. That matters more.
