Michael and Adam aren’t discussing a game this time. We had an episode back in the day where we talked about tropes we’d like to see more of, so this time we’re hacking away the mechanics and concepts that have infiltrated modern gaming that really need to go. Just get out of here. Scram, you trope! People are sleeping in here!

I love these conceptual episodes. Side rant, as someone whose favorite Fallout is 2, the show is sooo fucking good Adam!

I would like to see them retire open world games having missions that result in Game Over if you fail them. More specifically, I would like to see games that allow the player to fail and miss content and have the game keep on moving. Obviously, dying wouldn’t allow that, but i would love to see developers roadblock content for that run through because you failed a mission

Every time Michael mentions EV my heart swells. It was one of my first games and I’m still chasing the feeling from Back then Michael, if you’re reading this, it’s still available and can work on modern windows systems as a total conversion mod to the sequel EV: Nova. If you ever wanted to revisit it or play the sequel.
