On this episodes of Gamer Friends, your hosts are tackling a metric ton of news (which is pretty unusual for this time of year, tbh). First up “Logging On,” we’re talking Activision’s earnings diss to Bungie, all the Nintendo Direct news, several new game launches including Sims 4: Get Famous, Fallout 76, and Hitman 2, the class action lawsuit against Riot Games, the legendary Prima Game Guides shuttering, an update to the Blizzcon drama, no Sony at #E32019, and finally, the Game Awards.
“These Past Two Weeks in Nerdom,” we have to pour one out for the big homie, Stan Lee. Then, we tackle a few news items related to his legacy, including Daredevil S3 and the upcoming Disney streaming service character shows.
Instead of “The Homescreen” this week (we’re still playing Assassin’s Creed, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Destiny: Forsaken), we’ve got a long-form interview with indie tabletop game developer Brie Sheldon (@briecs) to discuss their upcoming game, Turn. It was quite the insightful interview and one you will not want to miss!
Thank you for listening! We appreciate the support. Please rate and review if you like the show and we’ll see you all in two weeks!
