2 min - 236 Should Video Game Critics Be Less Negative?
The free to play horse shooter Highguard released this week, and within 5 minutes, the entire Internet agreed that it sucks. Coincidentally(?), the CEO of Larian Studios posted a lengthy comment about how criticism of video games has become too mean and too personal, which discourages artists from taking risks and failing.
This week, we unpack the discourse around hot take negativity, the process of being vulnerable as an artist, and why the business model of algorithmic media pushes so many of us into the trap.

1 hr 28 min - 234 What Are the Most Overrated Video Games?
What beloved video games do you find insufferable? A lively discussion in our Discord community brought us to philosophical analysis of subjectivity.
Plus, Steam updates its AI disclosure guidelines, which seem like a step in the right direction yet still not granular enough.
And what's the deal with the "Cory In The House" DS game selling for thousands on eBay?
