20 - A Thesis on Topopoesis


Listen Later

Space is a place in which we sometimes race. With cars! That fly? With ships in the sky?

The thing is, game space has to convince you that it's a real place. So, what turns spaceness into placeness? The deformed children in Witcher 3? The location of your humble abode? Space species seeking peace speaking script pieces?

Put on your space suits and listen to this episode, as we fill this space with a lot of unverified theories.

Spoiler warning: At some point, Vole spoils No Man's Sky. Like, the whole thing, spoilt, past its due date, gone bad, man, whatever you do, don't eat it! There's a clear warning in the audio and it lasts less than a minute, and then we never speak of it again. If you care, beware!
