    Randy Pitchford's Epic Meltdown, Nintendo's Shady Patents, Roblox is Pure Poison! Mythic Banter #58

    Tired of AAA gaming drama? Join Rurikhan and Accolonn as they roast the week's biggest fails: Randy Pitchford gaslighting Borderlands players over unoptimized slop ("Every PC gamer must accept their hardware reality" – bro, what?!), Unreal Engine fatigue killing creativity, and Nintendo's overreaching patents that could sue anyone for "summoning" mechanics (RIP Palworld dreams). Plus, deep dives into Roblox's toxic kid-trap with assassination-celebrating games, YouTube's broken algorithm crushing creators, and why social media is rotting our kids' brains (pro tip: more Minecraft, less TikTok). We break down the Nintendo Direct bombs (Virtual Boy revival? Headache incoming!), AI slop flooding your feed, and quick hits on Hell is Us, Night Rain's addictive roguelike grind, and Assassin's Creed Black Flag remake rumours. Is indie the future? Hell yeah – skip the greed, embrace the gems! If you're battling game dev myths, hardware scams, or just need a laugh at the industry's expense, hit play.
