GeekOut Heroes

The Heroes search for the meaning of award shows and service games

This week we talk about the GTA VI, the VGAs, Bungie losing control, and Sony backing off on service games. We also give our thoughts on some Anime and some games we've been playing.

There is no 354. 354 has been banned.

Hey Geeks, this one we talk about Bethesda's making it awkward in reviews, the Fallout TV series, Doctor Who is officially dead to viewers, and on the state of gaming.

The heroes attend a party of furries and learn that violence is love

Hey Geeks, we've tried to clean this up as much as we can. Hopefully this is decent enough for a listen through. Sorry for all the delays. Crap happens and happens often but hopefully 354 will be dropping soon after this. To those few who have stuck with us, thank you. To everyone else who left ... yeah, we get it. Anyway, we had some fun conversations here and hope you enjoy our stupid takes on the crap we all love.

Unity managed to unify the internet in hatred

Sorry the absolutely late drop. We are having an issue with one of our mics and it made things difficult to say the least. So, we apologize for the poor audio quality and we are working on a fix. The episode was recorded a few weeks ago just after Unity tried to swindle some more money from developers using their engine. Nothing Netflix, Disney, Hulu, and Amazon aren't already doing to their customers by raising prices this difference is the developer community and gamers came together this time to say, "are you f*cking crazy?"

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.
