Brain melted a little bit switching from AMCA to the weekly Nextlander and still hearing Rob.

Podcast suddenly became extra boujee for some reason

I don’t love Citizen Sleeper (I think Rob is right that there isn’t enough to it) but its saving grace is its abstraction of the space station into essentially a menu—avoiding the pointless trudging that plagues Harold Halibut.

Rob is really good at going on rants. A bit too good for my taste. A sort of Anti Brad

Brandon Dorigatti

Rob's audio sounds so much better in this podcast vs how he sounds on ShiftF1 and AMCA, what gives?

Kenneth Elder

Rob brings 5★ run times where he goes.

Vinny, my man, you don't have to do everything in a game. My FF7 Rebirth playthrough was 74 hours, including a bunch of side stuff when I needed a break from the main quest. I might go back some day and do the rest, but maybe not. It feels like game after game, you go all out with an open world, run out of steam, then the conversation sounds like someone that got burnt out halfway through. It doesn't have to be this way. Maybe in the next big open world game, set a goal to balance it a bit better. It might be scary... but just try it, see how it feels.

I'm glad there's people out there like me who are deep in Warhammer 40k lore and not remotely interested in the table top game lol

I loved FF7 Rebirth, including the minigames, but I genuinely think you should just rock and roll through the rest of the game and ignore everything that doesn't seem interesting Vinny, cause I played the same way you're playing and it took me around 130 hours. I enjoyed myself, but I'm a weirdo.

Rob!!! :D The one time I wish this was a video podcast. I wanna see the Count Dooku blade!

Shogun 2 was such an amazing game. I still play the Fall of the Samurai expansion. Something just so satisfying about leveling a castle with off map naval artillery or mowing down a calvary charge on your flank with gatling guns. Shogun 2 was the last historical Total War that I adored. Empire just had so many misteps and jankiness and I really didn’t care for a lot of the strategic gameplay mechanics CA did with Rome 2. Also, Rome 2 is where CA started gating off factions with day 1 dlc that really turned me off. The TW: Warhammers I mostly agree with Rob, but Warhammer 2 just hit a sweet spot for me and sits alongside Rome, Medieval 2, and Shogun 2 as my favorite Total Wars and some of my favorite RTS’s.
