Send us a text After an abysmal time with Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines 2, Buzz was saved from the worst ending thanks to the goddess of game release schedules saving the best for last: Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake! Porter takes a trip down memory lane for his Halloween by trying out Luigi's Mansion on the Virtual Console, which basically spat on him and called him "poor" (derogatory) at the end of his play through. We also hype up some Steam samplings that are already ho...

Send us a text I guess we're on our disappointment tour, because we didn't exactly enjoy the majority of titles we're talking about this week... (Hold me now / I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking / Maybe six feet ain't so far down) That is to say, games we are excited to talk about include: Pokemon Legends: Z-A (0:02:10) Ghost of Yotei (0:41:56) Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 (0:49:08) DRAGON QUEST I & II HD-2D Remake (1:20:40) You know, I'm something of ...

Send us a text Porter is very excited to tell you about his visit with the Ghost of Japan Christmas Past, that being Ghost of Yotei from Sucker Punch Productions. Even noted hater of fun, Buzz, might pick it up based on his glowing recommendation. Speaking of someone who never created the world's most famous internet OC, Buzz is visited by the Ghost of Vampire Christmas Yet to Come as he talks up Vampire: the Masquerade (both the TTRPG and original Bloodlines PC game) in heady anticipation of...

Send us a text We sent Porter to report on Gen Con, the largest tabletop game convention in North America (He went of his own accord). At which, he was able to get the exclusive scoop on gaming celebs, including Matt Mercer and Margaret Weiss (He saw them as part of normal, routine events at the convention). And most importantly, he had a great time doing it (this part is true). Meanwhile, the isolated and weird lain-pilled NEET hikikomori femcel shut-in Buzz played a bunch of crap piling up ...

2025/08/11

Send us a text Hey, what can we say except it's really really good? No, seriously, this is a pretty positive episode overall, a rarity in the Dunce household... just feels nice to play a decent game that's worth your time and money? I was going to do a whole like, parody of the lyrics to the DK Rap here, but that seemed excessive and a little corny. So, just enjoy the episode and stay safe out there.

2025/07/19

Send us a text We're thinking of a number from 1 to 100 this episode, and we expect you to use your telepathy to intuit the exact numeral. Of course, since you rolled up a test character using the latest Unearthed Arcana from DnDBeyond.com that was all about Psions (now with plenty of fresh sub-classes so all the other character classes can get in on the psychic fun), that should be a piece of cake. This is also an extra, and we mean EXTRA, long episode, because sometimes when you get Buzz an...

Send us a text Listen if Nicki Minaj is the Queen of Rap than Hideo Kojima is the king of cra.... no, even though it's a childish rhyme and fits the low-brow vibes of this show, it's not fair or representative of the efforts captured in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. While we capture our reactions to having now finished Death Stranding 2 in this episode, it is spoiler free. So, cool those piggies in some tar and join us in our meditations on Norman Reedus UPS delivery simulator part 2. We a...

Send us a text Okay, admittedly I was a little behind schedule this week, partly due to needing to install an updated PSU in the PC I use to edit these episodes, but at least I didn't have to date the PSU. Like in that popular new game Date Everything from Sassy Chap Games and published by Team17. Topical! (We do actually cover it in this episode, I am not just referencing newly released games blithely). I mean, yes, this episode is also actually already "dated" in the temporal sense because ...

Send us a text As the dust finally settles on the vacuous retail Hellscape, some emerge clutching furtively to their Nintendo Switch 2 consoles. They wonder, as they careen around the open world of Mario Kart World Tour, was it worth it? Was any of it worth it? I mean kinda...sorta depends on how much you like Mario Kart and if you plan on playing a lot of the first party exclusives I guess? But either way you personally slice it, we are talking about the Nintendo Switch 2's launch. We ponder...

Send us a text If you're lucky enough to have gotten a Nintendo Switch 2 pre-order, you might share in the fan-base's anxiety as big box stores in the US and abroad continue to send cancellation notices for pre-orders (and accidental cancellation notices) just days in advance of the console's big launch. And so, we take a moment to reflect on the more chaotic moments that have brought us to this console release and where we think it might be heading in the coming months. From there, we pivot ...

Send us a text That's right, we played a bunch of spooky junk this week, but not before we stop and give Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 its flowers. That game was good all the way through, and is a real contender for game of the year at the almost halfway point of 2025. After clapping up what is clearly GotY, Porter shares his exploits with Id's latest foray into the Doom franchise with Doom: The Dark Ages. Sort of the Summer Beach Read of games from what I understand. From there, we turn the di...

Send us a text You guessed it, what with your highly perceptive ability to read and be aware of current releases, that we are talking about the quite excellent Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 from Sandfall Interactive. But not before we come down from the adrenaline rush that was the Nintendo Switch 2 midnight online preorder blitz that occurred stateside just the other week. It was, in fact, a bit messy (no one would shut up and take our money (yes, that's a timely and not played out reference t...

We also discuss seeing some of the leads of Dungeons & Dragons, that being Jeremy Crawford and Chris Perkins, departing from the franchise after years of contributions and fan interaction. And we round out this episode with a victory lap for Will as he recounts some of the best DnD playing that I have seen in litera...

Robo wants a Switch 2!

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2025/04/21

Send us a text Much like the spice, we played a melange of games this past week as we continue to nervously refresh our browsers waiting for the pre-order floodgates to open this week. We kick things off with Schedule 1 (TVGS), a management sim that is taking Steam by storm, even in its early access state, by offering an oddly charming and goofy spin on the Walter White experience (eyebrows, eyebrows, wink, wink, need we say more?). From there, Buzz reflects on his time as Robocop (Teyon). He...

And really that's the energy we are bringing to this episode about everyone's favorite ne'er-do-wells, the Rogue. The class that makes being bad a good thing, especially when the lock picking, pick-pocketing, and peeping on people is done in the context of a dungeon and the folks getting burgled had it coming.

Send us a text Oh, we're doing some complaining this episode about future toys that we cannot buy yet, but maybe we will be able to, but then again maybe not? Let's just say the uncertainty of, well, everything was already getting to us, but when you take away the shiny bread and circuses, it really gets one to thinking... Naturally we talk a bit about games we are playing, including Atelier Yumia and Wanderstop, but really we are here to point at that Nintendo Switch 2 price tag, before the ...

Send us a text Back-to-back-to-back episodes this week! We are either spoiling you all or Buzz is really behind on editing, and ultimately you decide. Either way, it's a jam-packed episode as we discuss some surprisingly timely games and some surprisingly untimely novels. We kick things off by laughing along with that Ubisoft Twitter account (I called it what I called it). Then we dive into Atelier Yumia and the Longest Subtitle Known to Man, I mean, Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories &...

Splitting the vote on Split Fiction

Dunce (Dunce) Revolution ·

2025/03/30

Send us a text We finally finished grappling hooking our way through Split Fiction (Hazelight Studios, published by EA), and that means we have every right to complain about it. Loudly. Well, that's not entirely the case, as, surprising to literally no one, Porter enjoyed his overall time with it and Buzz has once again taken any excuse to gripe he can get. Be forewarned, we spoil the majority of the narrative in this episode, with special focus on the last thirty or so minutes of the game. W...
