If you could pick one game to use as a blueprint for a new Shadowrun title, what game would it be?

2018-01-14 15:14:48 +0000 UTCIf you could choose the time period for the next Assassin's Creed game, what would you pick? I've been thinking about this ever since I had a dream about a Prohibition era Chicago AC game.

2018-01-11 08:50:03 +0000 UTCWould you guys please each rate your level of excitement for the new FromSoft Trailer? Would you say you are . . . a.) just edging or b.) full spray? Also, when can we expect the lich-like revival of Bonfireside Chat?

2018-01-10 02:43:12 +0000 UTCIn more than a few episodes, one of you (usually Gary, I think) will make a comment and then tell listeners not to @ them (calling you out on Twitter, I guess?). Is there a reason behind that, like does it just clog up your feed or is it annoying, or were people just combative with you over video games?

2018-01-09 15:01:36 +0000 UTCWhy so much hate for TV Tropes? Is it one of those things you're inflating your hate of for comedic effect, or do you just dislike it? I'm sure it gets irritating if you binge it and the terminology can be a little annoying but they tend to catch details that make me enjoy media more or think about it in new ways.

2018-01-09 13:21:21 +0000 UTCAt 41 years of age, I've been into so-called 'geek' hobbies such as Star Trek, video game RPG's, and other stuff most of my life. I also love sports and am the guy who buys the new Madden every year, plays fantasy football, etc. As geek culture has increased in popularity in recent years, I've felt a backlash by them against gamers who play sports games, that I get called out for not being a 'real' gamer, and if they find out I do enjoy them I don't get taken seriously. It's gotten to the point where I'm afraid to tell anyone I 'also' play sports games. I can't be the only gamer who enjoys sports games AND 'other' games, am I? Have you guys noticed this trend going on and what do you think about it, and ways to deal with it?

2018-01-09 12:56:25 +0000 UTCAs a researcher, I am interested in exploring how people conceive of potential futures. I think games can play a role in opening up people's imaginations about the future - but of course many games portray a fairly narrow range of futures - post-apocalyptic scenarios, dictatorial dystopias, and so forth. Of course those can be fun and even useful, but what type of future would each of you like to see explored in a game that would be entirely different from what you've seen so far?

2018-01-09 02:25:34 +0000 UTCDo you think that Legend of Mana (PS1) is something that could be WoFF worthy? I always loved all the little vignettes that slowly tie together but i'm not quite sure if there's enough connective tissue on that meat to make it an interesting episode. (Nudge nudge it's available on vita now)

2018-01-08 20:14:22 +0000 UTCI can't help but notice that it seems like you guys have something against dudes named Rick. First it was Diet Coke Rick from whatever episode of AS that was, and now it's Rick T in the Beetlejuice episode. What gives? Am I just doomed because I have so many douchebag namesakes? Your Pal, ("a" but not "THE") Rick

2018-01-08 18:22:52 +0000 UTCIt'd be fun to hear what your favorite episodes of AS or WofF of 2017 were, or which games you enjoyed or were most affected by one way or the other
