    Currently Playing - 20 - Endless Space 2 with Zach from Old Man Gaming

    Zach from Axiom Games LLC and Old Man Gaming stops by to chat about being a TTRPG designer and video game reviewer among the many other hats he wears as a dad with a full time job who still makes time for having fun with family and friends both locally and online. After getting introduced to his sprawling work in the TTRPG space we talk about both his love of wrestling games and of 4X games like Endless Space 2. Then, since he's covered so many games on his YouTube channel, we talked about his top 3 games of last year.0:00:00 - Welcome to the show, Zach!0:23:00 - What Are You Playing?

    Maximum Utcast - 15 - Abiding, Correcting, and Disclosing

    It took 15 episodes but we finally know how to make the perfect podcast! We're abiding by the rules, correcting our past mistakes, and disclosing any potential conflicts of interest which means no one can say we're doing it wrong! Jonathan talked with game developer Talha Kaya of Talha & Jack Co. about their new game ABIDE which brings a unique art style to the first person horror game experience. Elsewhere, Zoey corrects her prior error regarding the continuity of the Castlevania series by doing a deep dive on the original game's Japanese manual. We get a few updates from what games Jonathan and Zoey are playing (Beastieball and the Pragmata demo) plus we learn that disclosures can be like farts. 0:00:00 - The Mike Haggar Brainwashing Session0:03:12 - The MMMMMMAXIMUM Utcast!0:05:18 - Corrections and Reflections in Castlevania0:11:33 - Relatable Content0:15:06 - Settling Into the Uncanny Valley in ABIDE by Talha and Jack Co.0:55:51 - The Ethical Curmudgeon1:01:48 - It's Like Farts1:03:44 - Beastieball1:07:00 - Pragmata Demo1:09:50 - Wrap Up/Plugs/Thanks Patrons!

    Talking to My Boy About Videogames - 19 - Something is Rotten in the State of Roblox

    On this mildly belated episode of Talking to My Boy about Videogames, Jonathan and Ryan discuss the virtues of keeping your cool while trying to snap pictures of Pokemon. From there, they dig into the subtleties of Italian Brainrot and what it means for kids to like it. A scattershot approach is taken in the back third of the episode where they cover Yakuza Kiwami 3, Resident Evil, Sonic Racing, Cat2048, Reanimal, and Romeo is a Dead Man.0:00:00 - The Noise Thing0:01:05 - Emotional Scales0:01:56 - Serious Feelings about Pokemon Snap0:07:43 - One Man's Descent Into One Piece0:09:22 - To Reanimal or Not To Reanimal0:12:04 - Freddy's Not Famous0:13:35 - "Italian Brainrot" in Roblox Explained...Sort Of0:20:06 - Come Not Between the Ryu and His Wrath0:22:13 - The King of Cat20480:23:22 - Doing the Same Things in Different Spaces0:24:36 - Any Gmaes You Lookin' Forward to?0:27:01 - Rating the Quality of Sony Consoles0:28:15 - Wisely and Slow, They Stumble that Run Fast0:29:00 - We Did Alright!

    We're keeping warm this winter by talking about videogames so pour a cup of cocoa and hear a bunch of thoughts on strategies for staying alive! Zoey also gives us another Duke Nukem Report, this time about "Land of the Babes", the blocky Duke Nukem game for PS1 from the far flung future year of 2000! Sarah Carapace comes back to finish up her chat about "Lost Records: Bloom and Rage" when viewed through the lens of riot grrrl and grunge music.

    This month's Currently Playing sees Daniel joined in his home studio by Kelsey Powers, a film and TV producer who has worked on Fear the Walking Dead as well as several projects for her production company Cosmic Frozen Pizza like 2024's award winning short film "Picture Car." Daniel and Kelsey talk quite a bit about Mario Kart World and how it compares to prior entries in the series, along with getting into some discussions of the role gaming can have for people with ADHD and autism, plus the predatory aspects of a lot of modern games. There's also some chat about Dungeons and Dragons in there. Where did they find the time?! 0:00:00 - Welcome to the Show, Kelsey!0:12:38 - What Are You Playing?

    On this unhinged episode of Talking to My Boy about Videogames, Ryan accuses Jonathan of being famous and therefore knowing how to get good graphics in video games, AI is mocked at the Wendy's drivethrough, and as always, cats abound. The Boys talk about Dead Cells, Hello Neighbor, Kirby Air Riders, Megaman, and Terminator 2: No Fate, along with a few brief stops at Minecraft and Animal Crossing.

    Maximum Utcast - 12 - Are Hades 2 and Fire Emblem Bootylicious Enough for Duke Nukem?

    Happy New Year! And what better way to celebrate the dawn of a new future by opening up the floodgates to time that could have been? We've got a deep dive into the lost entry in the Duke Nukem franchise, Duke Nukem: D-Day, the canceled game that nearly was and never will be. Zoey becomes an interactive Duke-ipedia of information as we dig deep into the connective tissue of the games industry, bouncing like a pinball between Rockstar, Atari, Gearbox, 3D Realms, id Software and more. Later, Jonathan talks with game developer Lyn about her game Miskatonic before gushing about the latest Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave news and the ending of Hades 2 and what it means for the characters. 0:00:00 - The Cold Clamed Curry Meat of Silent Hill0:06:43 - Suckin' That Soup0:08:04 - The Duke Nukem Report - Duke Nukem: D-Day0:19:30 - Divert to Castle Wolfenstein0:23:06 - Hungry for Masculinity0:26:22 - Reclaiming Duke Nukem By Any Means Necessary0:36:12 - Dabbling in Torment with Lyn1:12:06 - Did They Make Fire Emblem For Everyone?1:17:56 - Wrap Up/Plugs/Thanks Patrons!1:23:35 - Jonathan's Audio Drama1:24:33 - Organic Breast Milk Follow Lyn on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/lyn-aka-blpry.bsky.social Check out Lyn's Game Miskatonic, playable in browser or downloadable on Windows: https://jack-rockwood.itch.io/miskatonic Zoey on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/adzuken.bsky.social Jonathan on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tronknotts.bsky.social The podcast’s Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ttwav.bsky.social Daniel on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/douibyorthst.bsky.social Written articles at: https://maxutmost.com/ Support Zoey’s Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/adzuken Support the Patreon to get episodes a few days early and also read the Maximum Utcomic! https://patreon.com/ttwav
