In episode 6, we talk about the visually stunning game, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, which has amazingly rendered pine needles, among everything else. If you want to pick up this stunning puzzler, check out the companion comic at the dev site, too.
Also in this episode, catch the debut of our new segment, "2 Guys Who Have Played Chrono Trigger Explain to Danny What Chrono Trigger Is, and Why People Like It". The two guys in this instance are Shaun and Jon. Speaking of Shaun, he can't speak English good, but we're very patient with him as he learns. He also shares with us some super neat facts about the Edleweiss flower! Thanks buddy, you're doing so great!
Jon also dives into the ways in which the original Deus Ex game ruined the film Blade Runner for him, and we eagerly anticipate Mankind Divided. In The Wangs, our segment on upcoming or unplayed-in-our-library games that we wanna jump into, features Abzu from That Game Company/Giant squid, as well as the the epic watercolor war experience that is Valkyria Chronicles Remastered. And, we round out The Wangs with The Flame in the Flood, the soundtrack of which has us all a-twitter.
We also bring back a trailer feature, discussing the upcoming cinematic masterpiece that is Sausage Party. And, as if all this wasn't enough, Jon demonstrates a healthy Yanni obsession, and Shaun brings back the Seth Rogen laugh for a much appreciated encore.
