It is November in the year of our lord 2019 and Hideo Kojima has just unleashed upon the world his outlandish new game, Death Stranding. There is a ton to unpack but we do our best to DELIVER our thoughts and reactions to the first 15-20 hours of the game. That's not all though; Brad played through Love, Sam, speaks highly of MO Astray, and Nick continues to praise Luigi's Mansion 3 for it's impeccable design. In other news, we still find a way to make the new Sonic movie redesign into something absolutely horrifying.

This week is packed full of impressions thanks to new releases like Luigi's Mansion 3, The Beast Inside, and the PC release of Red Dead Redemption 2. We continue to shower praise on Disco Elysium which has managed to pull in Krispy and Nick since Brad gushed about it last week! We revisit The Outer Worlds and talk about the news coming out of Blizzcon; including Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4.

In true Halloween spirit, Krispy showed up in full costume to talk about The Outer Worlds! Brad convinces most of us to play Disco Elysium which may end up being a serious Game of the Year contender for some of us. Things get topical when Chris Davis and Nick discuss Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Brad ensures he will never be welcome in China when he talks about Devotion, an awesome little horror game that was pulled from stores worldwide by the Chinese government...

It's a strange week for impressions. Brad tried out Anodyne 2 which is weird in the literal sense but Nick, despite his options, played through the campaign of Call of Duty: World War II. Nolan gives an update on Indivisible and Nick shares his VERY early impressions of The Surge 2. In the 2nd segment, the team deliberates games to be featured in our upcoming Project M and settles on a short list of games.

This week, Brad continues to suffer from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne addiction and Nolan makes his triumphant return from Canada with impressions of Indivisible! Nick delivers his final thoughts on Link's Awakening and showers praise on the original F.E.A.R. which is our current Revival Club focus. Brad also gives us a tour of all the games he's been playing on Apple Arcade including Grindstone and What the Golf? There is also plenty to say about Blizzard's latest controversy and Sony's new PS5 details!

Ed joins us on the couch this week to talk about Blasphemous and give us his final thoughts on big 2019 games like Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Supraland! Nick talks about his experience co-oping Borderlands 3 and the group dives a little deeper into the whimsy new remake of Link's Awakening! We also give updates on our recent Patreon milestone and get into the Halloween spirit with some horror movie / game recommendations!

After an unexpected week off, the games and news have been piling up so we do our best to play catch up! Chris Davis joins us at the start of the show to talk Gears 5 with Nick plus the delightful new Untitled Goose Game! The group hashes out there first impressions of the Link's Awakening remake and revisits Astral Chain and Greedfall to see how they are shaping up. The second segment is dominated by The Last of Us 2, Batman rumors, and some... colorful stories inspired by questions from our lovely Patreon supporters.

Welcome to the first episode of the Revival Club! Every few months, members of the community nominate, vote on, and play a game to discuss in Discord! We will wrap up each game with a short podcast where we will have a chance to respond to questions or thoughts shared by the community! In our first episode, Nick and Brad talk about the legacy of Devil May Cry 3 and how it continues to age in a post-Devil May Cry 5 world!

Ed returned from PAX West 2019 in Seattle with a giant list of games to talk about!
