Episode 95- We Hate Time Sleep and Money
We’re still digesting E3 and discussing some table top games, because we hate time sleep and money.
If you haven’t pre-ordered Fallout 4 yet, you might consider pinging Amazon to tell you when the PipBoy edition comes back in stock. Why else pre-order a game you know is going to be made? It has a second screen experience for Fallout 4. To quote Todd Howard, “I find second screen experiences… they’re usually just stupid gimmicks. But as far as stupid gimmicks go, I assure you, this is the best fucking one I have ever seen!”
(small shout out here to the Fallout 4 iOS game Fallout Shelter – Charles downloaded it the first night of E3, and we have only seen him surface to record this next podcast, and to (im)patiently wait for the mail man to come and deliver Batman: Arkham Knight.
We have lots of mixed opinions on the Kickstarter for Shenmue 3. Why are they kickstarting if the game is already going to be made? Marketing while earning money at the same time…
Here is the magical critter that I am in love with, and we cannot praise the Unravel game enough. IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT YARN – I want to talk to you! Tweet to me: @MeganIsRad – I need one of these.
There is a large section where I get schooled on Dungeon and Dragons 5th edition – I am still trying to understand it, and will report back on my hunky Monk at some point!
Apocalypse World, Dungeon World, Monsterhearts, Jon has played many “world” games, and has SO MANY OPINIONS… (though we are all looking forward to playing Night Witches game)
The other game i’m joining soon, is the Dragon Age RPG. RollD20 google hangouts where I theoretically can throw all the fireballs in Thedas!
All the rest of the spare time, will be dedicated Nekoatsume– the ADORABLE cat collecting game!
We tentatively withdraw our praise of Rocksteady games… Wow has Batman: Arkham Knight seems to have ooooooooodles of problems right now. To the point that WB (at the point of those podcast upload) has suspended sales on the PC version of their game because of the many problems with it. We personally have experienced the FPS cap (around 30), and that is the least of the problems many people have faced. You can see much about it on the subreddit here.
A moving away from Batman, take a look at the Mythender RPG. Our sessions were a wash, but everyone had a great time, so MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Here are some of the cheat sheets discussed: The Unofficial Mythender SRD, and the Mythenders Gifts Reference.
