Immersion Breaking

Joshua and I react to the Fallout 76 announcement trailer and hypothesize on Bethesda Game Studio's next Fallout game. Topics include how cool the trailer was, Kotaku breaking the news that it's going to be an online game (and what exactly that could mean), how they'll expand upon it at E3 2018, Vault 76, whether or not they incorporate Creation Club (Microtransactions) into the game, encouraging Bethesda to try new things but keeping their core values, respecting the modding community, speculation, and we sing a little bit (poorly).

WWDC 18 is just around the corner so I talk about how we’ve gotten ZERO leaks a week before WWDC for the first time in a while, Apple reportedly focusing on stability over features, these new things called AI and Machine Learning, whether or not Siri will get (a little) better, the HomePod getting some much needed oomf, Apple announcing just what the hell they’re gonna do with Texture and their TV service, PLEASE PUT NETFLIX IN THE TV APP GUYS, expanded iCloud storage / capabilities, their delicate balancing acting between privacy and features, cleaning up iOS and macOS UI (#embracethenotch), simplicity in iPhones vs growth in iPads, and Apple doing something with their insane revenue.

Joshua and I continue discussing our top 10 games 

Joshua Parrott joins me and we kick off the show by me scaring him with Google Duplex and then we discuss our top 10 favorite video games and why we picked those. Buckle up cause it's a long one (Part 1 of 2)

Joshua helps me kick off another podcast season. Topics include Star Wars Battlefront 2, Bethesda’s rumored Sci-Fi RPG/Fallout 4’s post mortem, Horizon Zero Dawn’s masochism, Sony’s Spider-Man, Cyberpunk 2077, our trepidation with RDR2 and Anthem, Fortnite’s overnight success and E3 2018 Battle Royal
