This week, Susan goes back to The Return of the Obra Dinn and discusses how it hasn’t lost any of its brilliance, even in replaying it; we dig into the latest Sony PlayStation State of Play and walk away very whelmed; Susan reveals her involvement helping out with game discovery and recommendation app Ludocene (now on Kickstarter!); and David discovers that he’s fully Twin Peaks-pilled after diving head-first into David Lynch’s body of work over the past few weeks.

Over the past few months, we’ve brought up a phrase… a state of mind… a gamefeel with a certain joie de vivre… That’s right, I’m talking about the Spirit of Bumpin’. This week, we take a deep dive into what the hell the Spirit of Bumpin’ actually means and try to come up with some criteria to define it and representative games that embody it. Susan also chats about her time with Subnautica. Does it have the Spirit of Bumpin’? Tune in to find out!

This week, we dive into Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – is it the best Indiana Jones-related thingie since Fate of Atlantis? We each also take some time to discuss three of our favorite games of 2024. Thanks for joining us on this wild adventure; we’ll catch you all again on the flip side.

This week, we discuss the delightfully spooky systems that make Phasmophobia so much fun, we revisit the world of Rapture and find out if Bioshock still holds up nearly 20 years later, and we talk about how the Retroid Pocket 5 is a microcosm of the best and worst the retro gaming handheld scene has to offer.

It’s Dragons & Dragons week here at Continue Podcast. First, we dive into Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake, where each of the hosts have a different take on the game’s uniquely languid pace. Then, it’s back to Dragon Age: The Veilguard, where Susan holds it up to the rest of the BioWare canon after finally finishing it off after 75 hours of play.

This week, we discuss three of the (many) big RPGs out this season: how Metaphor ReFantazio attempts to balance the familiar with the new, how Dragon Age: Veilguard is basically Diet Bioware, and how Ys X: Nordics fails to live up to the series’ legacy of bumpin’.

For Halloween this year, we took a different, goofier, more laser cube-filled route than previous commentary episodes. That’s right, we’re watching Paul. W.S. Anderson’s magnum opus – the 2002 schlock classic Resident Evil. Join us as we wait a while for the zombies to show up, and listen as we discuss the importance of 2am cheese-eating rituals.

This week, we’re talking about how The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom takes the series into immersive sim territory to fantastic results, and how the seven hour Metaphor ReFantazio demo fits familiar Persona game mechanics onto a new foundation.
