  • Episode 115 - Drinking Blood For Fun And Profit
    Feb 26 2025
    CW: Mentions of alcoholism in the Cabernet discussion (specifically from around 34:45 to 38:20)This week we’re discussing Cabernet, a game with a lot to say about the social construction of vampires, the cyclical nature of authoritarianism, and blood play.Editor’s note: I cut out us deciding not to discuss a game because we haven't played enough but left a few vague mentions of it in. It’s Cage of Roses, by one of our favorite VN developers, ebi-hime, so it’s probably good. I could go back and clean up the edit but who has the time?Timestamps(02:00) Cabernet(13:30) More explicit story spoilers for Cabernet(40:30) Vampyr(47:00) Bloodlines(54:20) What else have Willa and Robin been up to this week?

    This week, we spend an unbelievable amount of time talking about the Fantastic Four before remembering we’re supposed to be a video game podcast and pivoting to World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy XIV.

Then, Willa has brainworms for a new anime movie and Robin has two certified sicko games to share with the class.Timestamps(01:45) Complaining/reminiscing about BioWare(33:50) Two quick, less depressing shoutouts for the Video Game History Foundation and Trans Joy Jam(39:00) What else have Willa and Robin been up to this week?

  • Episode 110 - Squandering the Gift of Prophecy on Video Games
    Jan 15 2025

    Since there’s no big news from Nintendo or anything this week, we take this episode to go over last year’s gaming predictions and try to correctly guess more than one thing that will happen in 2025. Then, as you could have predicted, Robin has no memory of the past week and Willa talks about yuri.
