Happy Halloween, our spooky friends! Join the team as we (don't) mourn the loss of Tyler as they get a last minute guest of Bootremir, a devil from the Nine Hells who is appraising Tyler's actions to see if he's worth bringing back! Game Freak gives us the interview that Pokemon fans crave, we debate what Capcom games should get a return appearance, and there's a point where Tyler's horrific coffee curse hits one of the team members. What in the Nine Hells is going on?! Get spooky with us at Casual Master Quest.

Modular Segment: Classic question: if you could have any one superpower, what would it be?

Topic of the Show: Game Freak Interview

Question of the week: 

“So I have seen from a few outlets that Capcom is currently interested in using their old IPs for future games, be it either remasters, sequels, or reboots. I am writing to ask the question which IP would be on ya’lls wishlist. Personally the one I would sell my left nut for is Okami. I have that game for every PS console it was released on and played the hell out of the Okami Den sequel on DS. I look forward to hearing if any of you have some obscure choices.” -Nick Truax

Game releases:

Just when we thought tossing cats on camera was bad enough to decide punishments over, video game company giant Activision Blizzard is under the scope as a world power casts its eye upon them! Join Glenn with his newfound riches on WoW, Tyler as he prepares himself for the life of a law-abiding vaper, and Nik as he addresses the safety concerns of fires and fake shooters at his school. With a victorious Hearthstone player getting slammed for using the spotlight to give cause to the people of Hong Kong, people are turning Overwatch's Chinese climatologist Mei into a symbol of democracy that combats the oppression from China and the suppression of it's own game company. How will the country known for heavy censorship handle this new development? How will Activision Blizzard, who gets a large portion of their profits from the region, control the situation? Who in their right minds would steal Gabe Newell's mini-gun? This is Casual Master Quest!
