    Fine to listen to if you can get past Jason’s voice. Not a funny pod which is why I prefer Get Played. More fun and funny and I love them better. Also get ready for spoilers on this show sometimes.

  • There are enough good gaming podcasts out I don't need to listen to the ones casually talking about ChatGPT and normalising its use. Y'all are too online not to know better at this point.

    If you enjoy listening to Schreier and his effeminate gay voice, this is the show for you. He looks exactly how I expected him to based on his voice. Needs to cut down on his estrogen dose.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Are Modern Games Too Hand-Holdey? [Mailbag]
Q: Where is the line when it comes to handholding and guidance in open-world design?
The hosts agree there isn't a single universal line; instead, it depends on player expectations, the game's genre, and how much guidance the core experience actually needs. They highlight that some games succeed by offering subtle environmental cues, while others rely on explicit signals and UI prompts.
Nintendo Hype, Steam Taxes, and the Best Games Ever [Mailbag]
Q: Does the lack of a new Mario or Smash announcement mean people should disengage from the rumor mill and hype cycle entirely?
They argue for calibration rather than disengagement, acknowledging hype as a tool but advocating healthier expectations and reliance on actual release milestones rather than constant speculation.
Nintendo Hype, Steam Taxes, and the Best Games Ever [Mailbag]
Q: Dear Kirk, Maddy and Jason, how do we balance excitement for future Nintendo releases with appreciation for current and near-term games when two Directs in a row underwhelm fans?
The panel suggests that while hype is built by marketing, patience and nuance help; focus on what's actually announced, avoid forcing a single 'big surprise,' and appreciate the variety of smaller, well-made games that do arrive.
Why Are There So Many Remakes Right Now? [Mailbag]
Q: What do you think drives the current craze for remakes—creative desire, market forces, or both?
They agree it's a mix: market signals like nostalgia and proven revenue, combined with development pipelines and a desire to reframe classic experiences for new audiences.
Is Nolan's Odyssey The Elden Ring of Movies? [Mailbag]
Q: Why do studios shut down or spin off rather than stay independent, and how do IP rights influence these decisions?
The hosts explain that IP control often dictates whether a studio can survive as an independent entity after a sale, and that selling can preserve the people and some projects even if the original studio dissolves.
