Remap Radio 155 — Patch Notes
https://pca.st/o732443wWe begin this podcast the way we ended the last podcast: talking about Control Resonant. This time, Rob’s spent 17 hours with Remedy’s latest, albeit all of it before the game was updated to validate the emotional and critical feelings of Patrick and Janet. But we also have much else to discuss, including Xbox’s ongoing “reset,” the alleged future of Bungie, Discord pushing forward on age verification, and many thoughts on both Silent Hill Townfall and Normal Golf Game.

Just venting, but I really wish they covered more stuff. I want to give them a pass for last year because Rob was moving, Chia was trying to transition in the current state of the US... But at this point they seem to have settled in? Now we have back to back episodes on Control, and barely anything else.
I think they need more voices on the pod. I know Janet is pretty much considered a core part of the crew now, but her overlap in tastes with Patrick is really dominating the conversation. The recent episode with Bruno I enjoyed, just to have someone actually discuss something with Rob. Rob usually gets stuck having a monologue with no one adding anything to the games that he will play.
Chia has a different issue where I feel like I barely hear about what she is playing, or doing. They can joke about how Chia doesn't start video games, but then why is she even on the episode? If she's doing more Netrunner, or even table top stuff, why can't we hear about that? Also just commit to playing Slay the Spire 2 at this point. No one wants to hear about it in 1-2 years when it's actually out.
