The Tyranny of Thumbs

Welcome to the Tyranny of Thumbs gaming podcast, a podcast where we play a game each week and then we talk about it.

    Q&A (Part 2)

    This is Part 2 of the same night. If you listen closely you can hear the exact moment where McCoy's "2" beers hit and he becomes not sober. Then we deliberate about whether or not we should go to bed and then we go to bed.   Episode 2   From ben via email: Ever been tempted by a Half Life/ Orange Box week? Which one of you, if any, has a beautiful luxurious beard? Or is it, as I suspect, that there is a communal beard that you share in rotation every week.    From James via email: What is the game that has most impacted you to date (that you still reflect on)? What game would you like to memory wipe and play again? How would the podcast change if you suddenly got corporate sponsorships, etc.? How has your choice in game to play been affected by the podcast?   From Curtis via email: James, did you have time to finish Disco Elysium? Any final thoughts? What are some of the all-time favorites and/or most formative games for everyone?   From Mercedes via email: Obviously you guys love video games, but what other hobbies do you guys enjoy? What are some of your favourite books/ tv shows/ movies? Any plans to release more group playthroughs?

    Q&A (Part 1)

    Hello everyone! Our Q&A is finally here! A big warm thank you to all who submitted questions. It really does mean the world to us.    For the very astute among us, you may notice a couple things right away: 1) This is a Part 1. We have been known to take our time with our responses to things. And that is on display here. 2) We did not get to every question. Contrary to Zoe's declaration. Even on the upcoming Part 2. So be on the lookout for a follow up, to the follow up. When will this be? That sounds like a scheduling nightmare I wouldn't count on that being right away.   Episode 1 From Scott via email: (Based on Still Wakes the Deep episode) If you were able to give your ideal game pitch, what would the game be and to who would you make the pitch, seeing that they would be the best to carry out your idea (e.g. Naughty Dog, The Chinese Room, Giant Sparrow, or maybe try to get a one on one with Lucas Pope?)? (Based on Neva): Stars in the night sky sometimes seem to get brighter, sometimes dimmer, or sometimes fade out entirely: here in 2024, is there a game that stands out that you think you would either raise or lower its ranking from when you reviewed it? Is there a game that you think would be worth a second shot, either one that fizzled out (Starfield) or one that you rated low that might be worth another look, like seeing if you actually hated a book from school for the book or because high school said you had to read it? Is there anything on the horizon that has your interest gaming-wise, either one that would end up on the podcast or one that you’d play for yourself? (Full disclosure: asking this as I am still watching the trailer for Dispatch which hits a ton of buttons for me)   From Ben via email: As the darlings of indie darlings what do you think AI is going to do to the current AAA/indie funding models/ the industry in general? How do you think the balance between creation and curation is going to be affected? What music do you play to when you aren’t listening to in-game music (if such a thing happens)? I mean obviously one would never be so disrespectful to Darren Korb but you know, other games maybe What do you think of Bungie’s possible demise (again)?

    Neva (our hosting service needed additional characters in the title)

    Reminder! Q&A next week, you know for James. Come out and support J.$ with a question so he can focus on finals, and if you write in via tyrannyofthumbs@gmail.com then you will receive a patented "🙏" at some random time, probably.   Editor's Note: So it turns out that our titles must be 5 characters long and Neva is 4... I thought about "Neva!" but I'm gunna instead try to pull off "Neva " so if that messes things up I'm deeply sorry. Edit on Edit: That didn't work. Oh no. I'm consulting people. Wait how did I do it for Gris? This is not fair! Wow the discourse is popping off here. James nailed some shit and we got there boys. Check the title.   We love you all.
