Show notes

Square Roots - Episode 435 Level Up Starts at 2:44:00! Matthew defeated nature and survived another hurricane, and we start a new game! This time it's the classic RPG (?) Dishonored, one of those immersive sims. Or 0451 games. Whatever you want to call it! We don't follow the Five Foot Rule of murders, get into jail, get out of jail, navigate some sewers and then deal with the High Overseer!

- Upgrade Your Rat Stats - Gen Z doesnt even know what Planescape Is - It's not the request log - Johnny's super amazing joke - Its Imogen Heap, come on! - 1998 to 1993

This Week: We start Dishonored, until the end of the Overseer Campbell mission! Next Week: The House of Pleasure, The Royal Physician, Lady Boyle's Last Party

Tactics Ogre Part 7 - Slam In The Back of My Dorgalua Oct 07, 2024

Show notes

Square Roots - Episode 434 Level Up Starts at 2:07:45! I was thinking about making this episode description in the style of the Rob Zombie song, but that was too hard. Also? The lyrics are pretty weird. "Dead I am the rat, feast upon the cat, tender is the fur, dying as you purr"? Alright there Robert. BUT! On this chunker we finish Tactics Ogre! All of us! Surprisingly. Some of us are crowned king! Some of us go on exploring! Some of us get shot! There's a lot of options for endings here at Tactics Ogre. Also:

- The Chaos Gate (Prounounced Chaos) - Welcome to the Ogre - The Real Tactics Ogre Is The Friends You Made Along The Way - A Mister Bean Run - The Original Sexy Grandma

This Week: Finish Tactics Ogre! Next Week: We start Dishonored, until the end of the Overseer Campbell mission!
