GeekOut Heroes

The heroes journey to FAFO in order to understand consequences

Hey Geeks, we're talking about the spiritual successor to Saints Row 2022, Dustborn, and how well it's likely to do. Volition closed their doors after 30 years. Companies think you owe them your money and apparently Sony believes they're too big to fail again so they can charge you whatever they want for the same services you already have. Makes total sense, right? Companies need to be reminded that you have the power. Not them. So let them fail. We also give our opinions on Armored Core 6, The Last Voyage of the Demeter, and Boogeyman. 

After a long rest the heroes decide to yell at some walls to see what happens.

Hey Geeks, we're back with a long one. Recently some developers said some pretty stupid stuff and we thought we chime in because what else can you do around a dumpster fire? Anyway, we thought the sentiments expressed translated to the general issues around quality in streaming services and films as well so once this all got started it just didn't stop. We're tagging everyone we can in this one cause the industry needs to start hearing gamers out instead of instantly thinking we're unreasonable and treating us all like children. The frustration is real.

Walking in a Starfield we came across an unexpected adventure

Hey Geeks, the catch up continues. This is our discussion primarily about the Xbox, Nintendo and Ubisoft showcases with a bit of extra stuff in between. But the biggest is obviously Starfield. Will this be the game to bring us back into being the Bethesda fanboys we know we've been? Who knows.

Looking at a Showcase believing in a better future

Alright, still playing catch up. This is primarily our PlayStation Showcase discussion, but we also talked about the Call of Duty "boycott" that has never been. Additionally, EA is bringing back NFTs, yay. And Take-Two's CEO was praised for making a common sense statement about his employees.

No Devs Life

Doesn't really matter what I put here. Not like anyone is listening at this point anyway.

How Facing Apex Predators and Illicit Drugs of the Underworld Helped the Heroes Accomplish the Already Possible

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about the passing of a legend. We discuss our issues with Lightfall and whether we think Bungie really has a plan for the story. For a genre that seems extremely unpopular and unwelcome by gamers at this point, Service Games sure seem very popular with developers/publishers despite the failures that have come and gone. NFTs have failed repeatedly, so why is Square Enix still trying to make them a thing? Bethesda announced a new launch date for Starfield and a showcase date is on the horizon, but what do we expect from the game? We saw some movies recently and we give our recommendations. Be sure to follow us for my time wasting advice.

The heroes party recommends entertainment that must be played loudly and often in underwear

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about what games we recommend from 2022 and ask the question, will we get hardware refreshes this generation? We also give our thoughts on Hogwarts Legacy and give recommendations for some anime.

Villagers Rejoice as Wizards from Another Coast Give Up to Start Their Lives of Penance

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about WotC giving up on the OGL changes. Could new fans be to blame for why our beloved franchises are failing. The DCEU sounds terrible. Hogwarts Legacy boycott failed. Netflix looses subscribers and does an about face on blocking password sharers. And a lot of BS in between.

Wizards from Another Coast Give Up their Good Works While Limiting Running for One Person’s Complaint.

Hey Geeks, we're back for the new year with even more BS about the crap we love. This week we talk about business setting speed records for who can lose money and customers fastest. Ubisoft cancelled seven unannounced games and leadership give employees the preverbal wheel. Diablo IV's opening cinematic dropped and it looks good, but the game wreaks of Games as a Service. Microsoft is one of a number of companies having to let go of thousands of employees and a former 343 employees claims Halo sucks because of bad management and not bad development. Bungie is getting ready for Lightfall by changing and nerfing a lot of the things that players were having fun with to the point that this feels like starting over is some ways. And finally, Avartar 2: The Way of Water is the prettiest dumb movie we've ever seen.

After Retiring the Adventurers Started a Podcast in Another World to Save Lives

Hey Geeks!

After a long break we're back to talk about the new Disney CEO which is the same as the old Disney CEO. Avatar: The Way of Water was super expensive to make. CGI in movies has gone downhill and so have AAA games. We give our take on why that may be. One of us wants Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub Yo da dub dub (his) pronouns to be scat (I hated typing that). We talk about Anime we enjoy and one show we're giving up on. We also give our thoughts on some shows we're catching up with and a recent Netflix original which dropped, Wednesday (the show, not that day).
