080: Looking Forward to 2023

Games of 2023 have started coming out! We’ll go through what we’re looking forward to this year. Dennis is hip to the new hotness and starts playing Elden Ring. Bethesda/Tango Gameworks shadow drops Hi-Fi Rush and Kyle gets a couple hours in before the recording. Kyle goes back for another shot of Disco Elysium: The Final Cut – now with voice acting. Dennis goes though his recent round of swarm survivor games. Kyle skips every cut scene in Strangers of Paradise Final Fantasy Origins. Dennis makes matches in Devolver’s Tumble Time mobile game.

Michael protects mages to save the world in The Last Spell. Kyle gives his “put them on the box” reviews of Callisto Protocol and Marvel Midnight Suns.
