It’s the big two-oh-oh! This week, we look back at the first episode we recorded and talk about where games were then and how far they — and our own feelings about them — have evolved. We also read through some early episode descriptions to see which games we were talking about in 2017 and which ones have stuck around all this time later.

It’s the spookems-est time of the year! We decided to take a slightly different tack for the commentary track this time, and picked 2005’s action-packed schlockfest video game adaptation Doom. Why is everything so blue? Which actor does the best job suppressing their native accent? Why don’t more movies have words like ‘nanowall’? Find the answers to these questions and more in this week’s episode! Rip and tear along with us – but make sure you’re watching the extended unrated version of the movie. I think that’s the only one currently available on home video, but that’s the one we ended up watching. If you’re not backing us yet, head on over to our Patreon.

Time for an old-fashioned Continue Podcast mess-around. David’s still stuck in the neverending Gordian Knot that is The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, Susan’s got a pair of horror movie recommendations to share in Heart Eyes and Odditty, and Anthony shares his thoughts about Sinners and Andor.

This week, Susan and Anthony discuss the hauntingly beautiful French-infused world (and strict parry timing window) of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and David explains why The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy is one of the most audacious games he’s played in recent memory. Spoiler warning! Light spoilers throughout this one – nothing too story heavy, there’s a big structural thing that The Hundred Line does that David reveals in order to talk about why it’s such a wild game, so if you want to go in completely blind, skip ahead to around 1:23:00.

This week, Anthony gives us his shortest review ever with his take on Venus Vacation Prism: Dead or Alive Xtreme, Susan talks about what the hell Blue Prince actually is, and David actually finished the Silent Hill 2 remake and has questions for the rest of the group on how it compares to the original. Spoiler warning! It’s difficult to discuss what makes Blue Prince special without talking about certain events or things that happen in the game. As a result, we do go in depth about some of the lightbulb moments we’ve discovered during our time playing, so if you’d prefer to remain unspoiled, you may want to skip ahead to around 1:09:00.
