PauseCast

Jessica is sorry, but also not sorry for the Fortnite joke. She promises it won't happen again. This week, we discuss the band Disturbed, as well as our ventures into the Anthem Beta, and Apex Legends.

The return of PauseCast, a now bi-weekly dose of video game criticism from a queer perspective! Mark dives into the past with Star Wars Episode I - Racer and explores it's legacy in REDOUT, while Jessica dives into Undertale, and the ultraviolence of Resident Evil 7.

You know we had to talk about 'em.

Late record, we know. But we got real about dealing with competitive nature in games, plus Mark talks about the new Tactical Legacy expansion for XCOM 2 and what's next for Battletech and Jessica deals with implicit grey morality in Ghost Recon: Wildlands.

Extra long, only a little weird, and the first episode of PauseCast to require a two day recording process! We talk about Project CARS and assumed audience, Assassin's Creed Origins and the idea of "it just works", and more!

Do you remember Shrek: Super Slam? Did you know Shrek is 17 years old now? Thanks for listening to our podcast.

Mark talks about the variety, customization, and telling your own stories in XCOM and Battletech, and Far Cry 5 pushes Jessica too far.

Strap in, folks. Jessica's mad online about Far Cry 5.

We also talk tactics with the best of XCOM and Battletech, Dead Cells 1.0, and choice paralysis in Fallout New Vegas.

We discuss who Sub-Zero is, being mad because bad, why Shantae's art is a turn off, Battletech as a substitute for miniatures, and what Jessica's impressions of the Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII beta are.

PauseCast returns from hiatus to our most watched live episode yet, where we talk about going back to Fallout 4, learning to love Fallout New Vegas, and what makes Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom so damn special.
