I wish these COWARDS would play the trails games but they won’t they’ll play bayonetta which ISNT EVEN AN RPG guess I have no choice but to hate-listen to every season of the show

Good choice of games but cast is void of any chemistry together and individually the takes are just not that interesting. Also weirdly hateful? Just bad energy on top of not bringing any entertainment or educational value to the table

Hey all, just found the show about 3 weeks ago. Joined the Facebook group and have been listening at work and catching up on shows. Love the podcast!! You guys are hilarious!
Apple Podcasts5Multi_PassUnited Statesa year ago It's incredible how this bunch of 20-somethings can be so knowledgeable about games which were released way before their time. These hosts are wise and witty beyond their years.
Podchaser52 years agokrystelthamrin- Dead air
Saw a podcast series on tactics ogre reborn and thought that’s great can’t wait, I’d prefer not to be mean but these folk needs to listen back to their podcasts. So much dead air, boring chat, and it’s like they have no outline at all
Great idea, really poor execution, good luck in the future
