Ravioli, ravioli, give me the Marveluoli!

2024/12/11

Breaking news!Marvel Rivals isn't a completely fee-to-pay microtransaction-laden mess at launch, and is instead mildly consumer conscious and fairly stable despite a large player base on opening weekend!?All right, pick that jaw back up off the floor. In all seriousness, it turns out Marvel Rivals is actually a competently made hero team-based pvp shooter that manages to capture the spirit of other entries in the genre without being weighed down by greed. That's honestly saying a lot in curre...

Sons of the Satisfactory

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/12/04

It was Thanksgiving this past week in the US of A, and that means we spent time avoiding forming meaningful relationships with people in our immediate vicinity to instead hang out online in video games. And boy do we have something special for you, because we managed to play not just one, but two multiplayer Steam games this week. I'll take my prize now please.We kick things off with Sons of the Forest, an engaging but maybe too demanding game for two newbies to drop into it the way we did. A...

Knuckles sweeps the Game Awards!

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/11/26

It's absolutely mental how many awards Sonic X Shadow Generations was nominated for at Geoff Keighley's the Game Awards, which is of course something we take really seriously. Like, and this is not an exaggeration at all, our personal self-esteem rests on whether or not this upcoming three hour streaming event agrees exactly with our opinions. So, please, say a little prayer for us.Also, we have a big milestone accomplishment to share: Buzz sat through the Wade Whipple mini-series (with speci...

Enter the Dragon Quest III

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/11/20

If you thought for one minute this episode wasn't going to be about the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, then you were just fooling yourself. The good news is that Fools at level 20 can immediately jump to the Sage class. That's a mid-tier joke you might get if you've also played Dragon Quest 3.We weren't supposed to talk about Geoff Keighley's The Game Awards' nominations yet, because of course we have to pad out content after the November releases dry up. And of course we couldn't help oursel...

The PS Quintuple Pro

2024/11/12

There's always a joker in the pack, and the joker is me.Or at least, that's what my inner circle would have you believe after I doled out the simoleons for the PS5 Pro, a mid-generation upgrade to the Sony PS5 home console entertainment system. While not a revolutionary upgrade, we have had fun revisiting titles with the latest enhancements.After comparing our frames per second, we turn to a different kind of FPS as Porter shares his thoughts on Activison's Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. We also ...

Metaphor: ReFantastico

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/11/05

"Time Marches On, And The Age Of A New King Draws Nearer..." or a new president, as we vent our U.S. election eve anxieties by discussing the excellent Metaphor: ReFantazio - developed by Atlus/Studio Zero and published by Sega.We have a "poggers" time (Thanks Chuck!) as we entertain ourselves with some of the worst presidential candidate impersonations ever, complaining about Dragon Age: The Veilguard (née Dreadwolf), and thinking about how no matter what happens over the next few days, at l...

Well Mary, I made it. Despite your directions.

2024/10/30

We are so smart, clever, and witty that we played a horror game near Halloween, because it was released the month before Halloween, and now we can talk about it on Halloween. Now THIS is podcasting!Obviously we are discussing the artistic genius of Shadow Generations...Is what I tried to make happen, but instead we are actually discussing the Silent Hill 2 2024 remake developed by Bloober Team and published by Konami.Join us as we praise everything but the combat in what turns out to be a ver...

Throw that Astro Bot in a circle

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/09/22

Buzz is joined by special guest Porter to talk about Team Asobi and Japan Studio's "Astro Bot." And when we say talk, we mean praise heavily. I mean, have you played it? It's really good. Maybe even Game of the Year good...We inevitably talk about Yakuza (you know the drill by now), but there was an RGG summit just the other day so it's actually timely for once. Although we recorded this episode AHEAD of that commercial broadcast, and no, we didn't predict Pirates in Hawaii, but we'll take it...

(Go West) Life is peaceful there(Go West) In the open air(Go West) Where the skies are blue(Go West) This is what we’re gonna doThank Goodness You're Here!...is an excellent game that Buzz and special guest Porter both played but is also not the focus of this episode. That would just be a solid hour of praise for what is clearly game of the year 2024.Instead, in an oddly timely move, we discuss Game Science's global release of "Black Myth: Wukong". An action RPG set after the events of the li...

Dunce (Dunce) Dungeon: Drizzt and Dragons

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/07/16

We decided to take the "Reading is Fundamental" feat and dive into R.A. Salvatore's "Homeland," the first book in the Legend of Drizzt series (some would argue it's the 4th and they are wrong *cough* Sarah *cough*).When we do eventually get around to talking about the book, we cover the first two chapters of the novel and stand there, I mean dumbfounded, mouth agape at just how evil those Drow really are. Content warning for things like slavery, faceless wizards, baby sacrifices, big spiders,...

It was, in fact, not hot girl summer.

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/06/26

The latest round of video game commercials has come to a close with the Summer Game Fest (seriously, why not games plural?). Despite the heat dome reminding us how cooked our goose really is, we manage to temper our expectations for the showings from this year's vitamin E3 supplement.But beyond arguing about games we might not see until 2026, highlights of this episode include:Buzz realizes how much he missed out on Alan Wake II last year.Another sign of the apocalypse arrives with Sarah havi...

Dunce (Dunce) Dungeon: The Gang Gets Racist

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2024/06/02

It's a Hadozee, sorry, a doozy of a dungeon crawl, as we discuss that sensitive subject of race (soon to be species) in D&D. With One D&D updates starting to crest over the horizon (or "2024 Revision to 5th Edition,"? I genuinely don't know how they are marketing this anymore...and I think the MM comes out in 2025 anyway...), the ways in which we generate our player characters and NPCs will be updated, including that important first step of choosing a race.We also look back at a...
