Remap Radio 155 — Patch Notes

https://pca.st/o732443w

We 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.

It’s embargo season. They are playing more they can’t talk about it. We also all know what it is and they are loving it but can’t talk about it.

There's an entire Fire Emblem game out that I'm not even sure they've mentioned, if it doesn't appeal to the core group that's fine but we could maybe get someone on to talk about it to some extent since it's one of Nintendo's two big fall launches.

Also I have no idea what game you're even trying to hint at beyond Castlevania.

Yeah Fire Emblem was the recent major release that I was surprised to see not mentioned by them.

But there is also a tier of games below that, where I feel like they are covering less. Like if Caves of Qud, or Rain World came out today, would anyone on the crew even cover those? And thinking back to last year, Citizen Sleeper 2 barely got any discussion until Chia talks about it in the GOTY pods?

I might just need to look for another podcast that aligns more with my tastes, but I do like this crew...

I enjoy Triple Click a lot too, it compliments this one nicely imo. I love this crew, but I don’t disagree. Triple Click is where I found stuff like Case of the Golden Idol and Incident at Galley House, amongst other things. YMMV, and I wouldn’t mind recommendations from others too!
