"What remains of edith finch?" "Bones" That made laugh way harder than it shouldve 😂

The original Space Asshole!

Merry Assmas to you and your loved ones.

Boost Remo?!

Terrence Beauregard the Third, Esq., at your service (bows grandiosely)

YES! I love Chris Remo! Almost didn't recognize this video because it had the same pic he uses for all of his videos.

Holy shit chris remo still a thing. I used to watch his streams

From what I remember. The final Duke Nukem Forever was the project that 3D Realms was working on, but with George B removed from the existing team, so the extreme feature creep stopped. I don't think Gearbox did much actual design, maybe the multiplayer? They were just support mostly.

It definitely seems like the VR platforms are a little to focused on winning the initial purchase together a person trapped on their ecosystem. Why are all the biggest games we hear about only on one platform? Alyx, Arkham, Horizon, the Resident Evil conversions. This has kept me from buying in on any of them.

happy holidays! directly tackled the topic of my opening daily routine of doing the wordle, connections, and crossword. lovely episode

thank you all as always for the great podcast, happy holidays!

This might be my favorite horrible buzzer 0:30

53:49 the disclaimer is funny as hell. My answer to video game I like, that the greatest percentage of people who’ve played it do not like is JETT: The Far Shore.

Thank you for recontextualizing the question hole

how did ash not call Brandon on "show meat"

Frank told this (35:50) exact story about Phantasy Star III on the Sega Genesis in episode 99 of Insert Credit ( around minute 20:10) 10 years ago, (I just listened to 99 for the first time after this one today)

“omg it was the last of us part 2, go to hell” ash is hysterical bruh 😂😂

29:36 The chooms that Brandon provided transported me straight back to 1995

thanks as always!🎉

Pay-walling reviews? Bold move The Verge, good luck.

tenet mentioned 🎉 thank you

Is Tim Rogers no longer part of the podcast or is he just taking a break?

"Field Full of Titties: The John Brown Story" is a real Super Best Friend Cast / Castle Superbeast podcast title joke.

yall have always been funny but the jokes were absolutely on point today 😭😭

The Switch hardware doing the "click" sound on console or game boot up has to be the biggest case of the Mandela effect in recent years. It doesn't happen! :D great pod as always

This is a long story for YT comment, but I wanted to take a moment to share my appreciation for what you guys do. A few years ago, I went through a very rough patch in my life. I could barely eat or sleep for about year because of these events. When I would sleep, I'd wake up from nightmares and dread. I started listening to YT at night and found that, as long as some kind of podcast was playing, I could sleep. I would wake up when the podcasts stopped, I'd put something else on, and then I could sleep again. Prior to these events I had been aware of Insert Credit, and enjoyed it on a few occasions, but I wasn't a regular listener. This may sound silly, but I have a hard time getting into gaming podcasts because I still long for the podcasts of yore (1up Yours, CGW/GFW and the other 1up podcasts, and, later, Easy Allies before so many left). I have a few gaming podcasts in my YT subs that "I'll get to one day," but I never really listen to. Insert Credit was one of those. I clicked on Insert Credit one night, needing something to listen to, something "talky." The panel's sense of humor clicked with me right away. Jaffe's questions and the ensuing discussion were interesting and engaging. I listened and was entertained, and then your soothing voices lulled me off to sleep. Insert Credit quickly became my go to to sleep. It wasn't "so boring I was lulled off to sleep!" but rather, "I could escape from what was going on around me for a bit and relax and fall asleep." I would listen every night for as long as I could, and then the next time I turned an episode on I would skip back to the last thing I could remember so I could hear more. In this way an episode would usually last me half a week. The rest of the week I would listen to old episodes. This grief chapter in my life has been over for a few years now. I've been listening during the day like a normal weirdo for a long time. You guys mean a lot to me, more than you will ever know, because of everything going on in my life at that time. I'm writing this comment now because, when Tim left, it kinda got to me. I haven't listened to past episode 359 because I guess I don't want to accept that my favorite podcast is different now. Today, while watching something unrelated, YT decided my next video should be Insert Credit 367. I almost turned it off, but I didn't, and as soon as I heard that familiar music my everyone's voices, I started smiling. It's good to be back, I've missed listening to you guys. edit: and HOLY SHIT YOU GUYS STARTED DOING VIDEO (of yourselves)? I LOVE IT! The fact that we never get to see you guys has always been my only complaint (not to detract from the wonderful video clips edited in by Esper. That has been such a lovely addition to the podcast but its also nice to see you guys talk sometimes!)

games don’t have to be INTERNALLY political, which i think is the real question that frank and ash ended up answering. when it comes to video games in the context of the world, as products, as art like any art, i think the answer is obvious. any game that has the opportunity to actually get made always carries implicit assumptions from the people who made it. there are identifiable material, ideological, and structural reasons why some games get to be made and not others, why some PEOPLE get to make games and not others, what resources are available to make a given game, why games look a certain way and not other ways, why the story of any given game is the way it is, etc

wait i wanna hear Frank's pitch story

The return of Klonoa, all is right with the world.

Algo!

The RUclips uploads are elevated - loving the video and edits.

Missing her

Thanks as always everybody, always an enjoyable watch🎉

Seeing as the creation and playing of video games require hardware that is often produced via strip mining resources from historically oppressed and colonised nations, particularly in Africa, and is then manufactured via cheap labour by exploited workers throughout Asia in order to turn large US and European tech companies absurdly large profits, then yes I'd say that video games are inherently political whether we like it or not.

Oh man I knew that intro quote was familiar when I first listened yesterday! I had to search to remind myself, what a selection 👏

I'm actually shocked that Brandon doesn't like Balatro. It's very good in my opinion - literally game of the year good.

Long shot forums

despite Ash mentioning it at the beginning about halfway through the show I was like "...Mr Boner?"

XBOXEN. THERE WAS A HERD OF XBOXEN.

"I'm making a joke, I don't give a shit" as Brandon is earnestly engaging the question lol

the itchy and scratchy pikmin!

Unfortunately, "Xbox Live" no longer exists. They changed the name to "Xbox network" with lowercase n like a year ago. Another brilliant marketing decision.

Thank you Ash for forcing MTG on the squad 🤗

13:27 “Question Clarified” love this so much 😂. Thank you Esper for going the extra mile

Everyone is, of course, valid in not liking a piece of media. I really dislike when people police me with how I should be positive about everything. I just want to say- Sublime was singing about the rise of fascist authoritarianism in the early 90s, and those bass licks are solid. If you Hate Sublime, you might just hate the bro culture that appropriated their songs or mayhaps a particular part of your life.

Legend of legaia famously had its sequel localized with Mr mosquito and mad maestro

Arcade of Our Own is such a great game.
