Re: Persona 5
I took the themes to be more anti authority and anti government in general more so than against one political faction. There is a lot of distaste for police, politicians, teachers, and government employee's. I'm sure the writers have their political bias's but it's restrained as far as I can see. I...

Re: The Nintendo news and discussion thread
1) Triple AAA games have spiraling costs 2) Although games are selling through many more copies, they aren't selling enough to make back said spiraling costs. Has this actually been substantiated anywhere? Companies love to pull this line out all the time but I have a hard time believing it with th...

Re: Persona 5
I absolutely love this game. I only finished it for the first time late last week. Took me about 105 hours, although 5 of those were probably having it sit idle where I got locked in to some long talking sessions and had to do something else before I could save. It was my first Persona/SMT game as w...

Re: The videogame music thread (also Sound of Play submissions)
I've heard some of their stuff before and it's great fun. I didn't realise they were on Spotify so that's worth adding. Cheers. Surprised to see someone else is already aware of it. That's pretty cool. I believe they only got the streaming stuff organised a couple of months ago, it took a while to ...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
The Vita is a fantastic little machine. My God it is! I'm amazed at how much I play my Vita, especially compared to how little I ended up playing my PSP. This x1000 One of the most underrated gaming platforms. It's one of my all time favourite consoles. The breadth of games available for it is amaz...

Re: The videogame music thread (also Sound of Play submissions)
So not necessarily making a SoP request (although I'm sure they won't say no), but I figure it's of general interest to the crew here. My brother (the trumpet player) released a jazz album of video game covers this year with a friend of his under the moniker Grand Noise Consortium, mostly of the gen...

So I don't go in for this kind of thing but some people might appreciate it. A selection of the Skyrim soundtrack is getting a Record Store Day release

Re: Our next-but-one podcast recording (21.10.17): The Witcher III: Wild Hunt
Honestly I shouldn't have engaged in this conversation as I feel it's beyond the scope of the podcast. I think we're on the same page here, just coming from different ends of the book. I'm happy to leave it alone if you are. I'll probably edit my post to just include my thoughts about the game, I do...

Re: Our next-but-one podcast recording (21.10.17): The Witcher III: Wild Hunt
I dunno, odzrut's observations make sense if no real world context is applied. But given the current cultural and social climate we're in you should be questioning some of the things that happen in it. I could probably give a pass on the plague maidens and whatnot because they're based in historical...

Re: Videogame Criticism
All this talk about TLoU makes me think I should try and finish that game again sometime. It wouldn't be fair to comment until I do. I kind of stopped playing about half way through, and I can't put my finger on why . I used to think like this, but eventually I just adopted the attitude of "wh...

Re: Videogame Criticism
I loathe the Naughty Dog formula, but especially The Last of Us, ladder and plank finder simulator of the year. I kind of feel like I can't take part in discussions about their games because I haven't finished a single one, but that's because I always get about halfway through and find myself just b...

Re: Outlaws from LucasArts (1997)
Oh man, I played the hell out of this as a kid. First non-point-and-click game I ever spent a significant amount of time with. I'd love to get my hands on it again. I haven't heard the theme tune since 1999, but I still remember it! I had the demo for a long time and couldn't beat the first boss, t...

Re: Grim Fandango
Also, Tim Schafer released his design documents for this game a while ago. I'd recommend having a look through.

Less an individual recommendation, more partial brag. :D I picked up some OST's from Japan (don't worry, it's not contagious). Persona 3 soundtrack, Persona 5 three disc soundtrack, and the Persona 4: The Golden Animation soundtrack. Still in Japan so everything is in suitcases. The only tip I have...
