Rogue Galaxy Part 5 - Sword Daddy Nov 12, 2018

Show notes

Are you ready for a really, really long dungeon? And then ready to do it again? Because that's just one chunker of this chunker. Three keys, four dungeons, and all the unearned pathos. Also: vamping about Castlevania, Harry and the Hendersons, more of Simon's sad, sad former family, talk of both Star Trek and Wars, and so much more!

This Week: We play chapter eight in Rogue Galaxy! Next Week: We play chapter nine and ten in Rogue Galaxy!

Our theme for this series is Ferdk's cover of Brave Heart, the battle theme for Rogue Galaxy.

Rogue Galaxy Part 4 - Meanwhile... BOY CHAT Nov 05, 2018

Let's take a break to talk to a child who is dressed like the Jack from a deck of cards! No need to save your game! Let's watch this five minute scene where they talk about nothing. Also this week: Hot Dog, burly miners, a beautiful montage set to Roxette, unearned pathos, Girl gets less character development than Mio, finally meeting the Captain, butt wiping sock attacks, Deego's deep DeviantArt search results, and so much more!

This Week: We play chapter six and seven in Rogue Galaxy! Next Week: We play chapter eight in Rogue Galaxy!

Our theme for this series is Ferdk's cover of Brave Heart, the battle theme for Rogue Galaxy.

Instant Classic - Until Dawn Oct 31, 2018

Show notes

It's that spoopy time of year so we decided to release our monthly Patreon Instant Classic episode to all our listeners. Because we love you.

Join Vanessa, John, and JIM (that's right, he's back) as they decide if 2015's PS4 exclusive Until Dawn is an Instant Classic.

Rogue Galaxy Part 3 - Jupis Tooki McGanel Oct 29, 2018

Show notes

Holy crow. This game takes a turn for the... weird. But at the same time, the dungeons become even more repetitive. Talking points include: Gundam's maps, everyone's favorite idol Mio, Robert and Henry's extensive screen time, the confusing fate of Rosencaster, a robot's strange daddy, Simon's weird family, how to bribe people, and so much more!

This Week: We play chapter four and five in Rogue Galaxy! Next Week: We play chapter six and seven in Rogue Galaxy!

Our theme for this series is Ferdk's cover of Brave Heart, the battle theme for Rogue Galaxy.

Rogue Galaxy Part 2 - Upsetting Revelations About Jecht With An Eyepatch Oct 22, 2018

Show notes

Ooooooooof. We take a deep dive into the cultural melange that is the peoples of Jurukai in Level 5's Rogue Galaxy! There's some unsettling character design, two of the bustiest characters we've ever encountered in JRPGs, and John misses all the good treasure and abilities. Also? TOADY.

Vanessa recorded this episode from a dark, spooky well.

This Week: We play chapter two and three in Rogue Galaxy! Next Week: We play chapter four and five!

Our theme for this series is Ferdk's cover of Brave Heart, the battle theme for Rogue Galaxy.

Rogue Galaxy Part 1 - A Real Chaz Oct 16, 2018

Show notes

It's a short chunker as we start Level 5's cult classic RPG Rogue Galaxy! There's mistaken identity, Scottish Volus, a man named Raul, skull camels, Cobra Commander cats, Chaz 2: The Chazening, Generic Girl: She's Fine, the Revelation Flow, and awkward Kingdom Heartsy combat. Let's go catch some Moussers and head out to space!

This Week: We play chapter one in Rogue Galaxy! Next Week: We play chapter two and three in Rogue Galaxy!

Our theme for this series is Ferdk's cover of Brave Heart, the battle theme for Rogue Galaxy.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Part 5 - That's So... Ruma? Oct 08, 2018

Show notes

We've been to Paradise, but have we been to me? Yes. Of course we have. We dive into Martin's gaping portal and head off for the penultimate great battle: a very quick sword fight against Mankar Cameron. He loses. It's not very climactic. BUT. Things get real interesting when you get back to the Imperial city! Daedra Kaiju! Self-immolation! The City Guard Versus Martin, if you're Matthew. We wrap up the Thieves and Assassin's Guild, as well as Johnny just doing random weird side quests. And Oblivion is closed, forever! We announce the next game, too: Rogue Galaxy!

This week: We finish Oblivion! Next week: We get to the pirate ship in Rogue Galaxy!

Our theme for this series is Christopher Niskala's 8-bit Oblivion Chiptune Medley.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Part 4 - Felix's Purrfect Plans Oct 01, 2018

Show notes

Someone on the podcast has a weakness for Rob (and his sister Tilda)'s gruesome cinematic output, and it's not who you might think! We start off the podcast with some sad news, and then some mixed news. The podcast is in disarray! When will we play Chrono Cross? What will we play next? Why is Vanessa murdering so many people? Why does John get lost in such a small level? We open up a giant Oblivion gate and bring all of Cyrodil together for lots of procedural nonsense, slightly broken quests, and a thrilling lack of brothels.

This Week: We close the Great Oblivion Gate! Next Week: We finish Oblivion!

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Part 3 - Tootiest Sexiest! Sep 24, 2018

Show notes

Okay, right off the bat - we're all kind of d*ck crazy in this episode because the news has been nothing but wieners. On this episode we deep dive into side quests and get some fancy armour that for some dumb reason Vanessa just can't wear. Plus: John's all-scamp boyband, Fantasy Shrevport, we pitch a new Avengers game, Jim and John embark on a pilgrimage, Mirror Universe Square Roots Where We're All In Leather And Making Out, and spy hunting!

This Week: We get the armor out of *Sancre Tor*! Next Week: We close the Great Oblivion Gate!

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Part 2 - Potter Babies! Sep 17, 2018

Show notes

You'll have so many questions about Jim's terrible meme, but hopefully this episode will try to answer it. As we play through Bethesda's smash hit open world RPG, each host tries their best to be upsetting. First, Vanessa's choice of TV show disgusts the rest of the podcast. Second, Jim's terrible meme. Third, Matt's upsetting roleplaying of his cat Felix. And finally John decides to buy some waterfront property so he can truly start his SkullQuest.

This Week: We crash the Daedric Cult's party in the Dagon Shrine. Next Week: We get the armor out of *Sancre Tor*!
