And since we brought up both Anthony Burch and panels, that gives me an excuse to link to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rm0rrGBin5Q\">Dying is Funny, Comedy is Easy<\/a>, a presentation by Burch on why more games should embrace comedy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10:00 Watch_Dogs is a tone-deaf narrative with hackneyed characters.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Chis and I talk about the game at length. Spoiler: It&#8217;s not our Game of the Year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>19:00 Let&#8217;s talk about something else.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Like the terrible Watch_Dogs gameplay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>38:00 Somewhere along the line we lose the plot and talk about Ubisoft and Elder Scrolls.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We didn&#8217;t even plan to discuss Elder Scrolls this week. It just happened.<\/p>\n<p><strong>50:00 Steam Summer Sale!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Actually, while we were going to talk about the sale for this segment, we just wound up talking about what we&#8217;re playing. Go figure.<\/p>\n<p>Chris is playing <a href=\"http:\/\/amon26.itch.io\/in-the-kingdom\">In the Kingdom<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-US\/xbox-one\/games\/killer-instinct#fbid=B0Qlpcntr1O\">Killer Instinct<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m playing <a href=\"http:\/\/riskofraingame.com\/\">Risk of Rain<\/a>. Also <a href=\"http:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/revenge-of-the-titans\/\">Revenge of the Titans<\/a> from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/\">Puppygames<\/a>. In this segment I said I had all the titles from Puppygames. Not so! They now have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/droid-assault\/\">Droid Assault<\/a>, which is part of the Steam sale at the moment. So NOW I have all the Puppygames.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is an hour of four people talking about videogames.
