Anyway, we also found time to discuss our reactions to PlayStation’s State of Play showcase, make sense of the latest layoff news from several companies, mope about the cancellation of an unannounced Deus Ex game, and more.

Remap Interview: Immortals of Aveum’s Bret Robbins Jan 29, 2024

Show notes

What happens when a game you’ve spent the last five years making doesn’t take off? Immortals of Avenum, last year’s magic-infused shooter with elements of Call of Duty and Doom, was hardly a hit. It was the opposite. Remap liked it, but most people didn’t play it. The developer behind Immortals of Aveum, Ascendant Studios, was soon hit with layoffs. But Ascendant isn’t dead, and CEO Bret Robbins, once the creative director for Dead Space, came through Remap Radio to talk about what happens when you realize that bad news is on your doorstep.

Remap Radio 32 — Not So Infinite Wealth Jan 26, 2024

Show notes

It’s a familiar story this year: layoffs. Sometimes the number is bigger, sometimes the number is smaller, but it’s a tragedy all the same, and Patrick, Janet, Rob, and Cado are here to try and unpack the horror of it all. Elsewhere, we talk through our time with, and the toxic conversation around, 2024’s surprise hit, Palworld. In happier news, Patrick and Rob have utterly fallen for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, while Janet is less high on the Jungle Book-inspired The Cub.

The Terror of Google's AI Search Results - Interview with Alex Donaldson Jan 08, 2024

Show notes

In the 90's Google changed the way people found things on the internet, and now they're incorporating AI to "help" people by showing them answers without needing to actually go to the website that they scrapped that information from. Patrick is joined by Alex Donaldson, Owner of RPGSite.net to go over the changes and track the history of Google's influence over the entire internet and more specifically game websites.

Remap Radio — A Perfect Holiday Break Jan 05, 2024

Patrick, Rob, and Cado convene after winding down 2023 to reflect on how absolutely nothing went wrong over their respective breaks. Things? Done. Drinks? Drank. Vacations? Taken. No notes. But we do have notes on beating Alan Wake II in the wake of James McCaffrey’s passing, indulging our fullest selves in many hours of the overlooked Immortals of Aveum, and basking in the power of a Steam Deck while sick. (And don’t worry, Janet will return next week.)

Sports! — Run the World (Bears) Jan 05, 2024

Show notes

There has never been a doubt here on Sports!, but folks, Da Bears are back. Though out of playoff contention, the arrow on the team is pointing up, with Justin Fields playing better and control of next year’s first overall pick in the draft. But questions remain about the coach, the ceiling of Justin Fields, and how long Patrick can convince his daughter to stay at a cold Bears game until they need to go home. Rob and Patrick kick off 2024 answering these and more.
