Hello everyone!!
Our last episode of May brings one of the best recent videogame releases, Obsidian Entertainment's Pentiment!
Joined by Leon's friend Holly, we dive into the meaningfulness involved in how the game represents the Late Middle Ages and more! We talk about how peasants always were people, how the detective story is reinvented here, and its use of what we call "meaningful maximalism" and it is excellent!
Enjoy this lovely and fun dive into a truly fantastic game on all counts! Have fun and do go play Pentiment!
Do check out the We're Not No Different episode with lead designer and developer Josh Sawyer: Pentiment feat Josh Sawyer
