Episode 60 - Gaming | Housemarque's Lovecraftian Psychological Third-Person Roguelike Shooter "Returnal"

Novo and Ryan (IG EATC.Films) discuss Housemarque's videogame "Returnal" - a Lovecraftian-horror, psychological, albeit very challenging, thrill-ride experience - focusing on its mechanics, story and narrative, and why its punishingly difficult gameplay is very much purposeful, because, as the protagonist is challenged by the world she's found herself in, and the prison of her own mind and making, so too is the player - you - both intertwined and cyclical, much like the mechanics and the story itself.  This episode is brought to you by the novel "The Entropy Sessions" - a tale of loss, love, and madness, and our past, present, and future relationships with technology - find it here - on paperback or as an ebook on Amazon, or as an audiobook through Audible.
