Today's episode was kinda messy, Colby and I couldn't hear each other for most of the recording, which makes it really hard to have a conversation. We posted what we had, but parts of it are definitely a little disjointed. We'll answer all the questions from this episode on Episode 249, which will probably come out on September 8th or 15th, depending on how my migration to Florida goes.
What We're Playing
Colby: The Ascent, Twelve Minutes, Stranger Things 3, Dead Space 2, Grounded
Cliff: The Ascent, Stardew
News
xCloud is Coming to the Xbox
Halo is Launching Without Co-op Campaign or Forge
Good Guy EA?
Stardew Valley is an Esport Now
Destiny 2 is Going to Give You Infinite Ammo
Intel's New CPU Could Be Very Cool
Bethesda Says It Will Stop Releasing New Versions of Skyrim When We Stop Buying It
Curt Schilling's 38 Studios Is Making Payroll 10 Years Too Late
Questions
DA VINSTER (Vinny): What game do you think would benefit most from coming to a service like Xbox Game Pass or PS Now?
Rdeacon: What do you think is the best way for gamers to give developers feedback about their games? I just heard a podcast where the developer from Escape from Tarkov creator wants the feed back but said its a tedious process to weed through all the trolls to get to valuable insights.
Primefan: Which character that isn’t in the mortal kombat universe be best the doom slayer or kratos
JoeColeslaw: How stoked are you for Psychonauts 2...Short point... you MAY want to play 1 first, but NOT required... just freshen up on controls. They do a good job to recap
Princess_Megan: Which real world animal or fictional creature would you like to see better utilized in video games and how would you like to see this accomplished?
