What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast. Between Valve diving headfirst into the console wars and the Game of the Year nominees being made official, we have a packed episode for you. But before we get into all the new hardware hype and gaming news, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh, and joining me... I have a feeling he's upset over a certain lack of a certain game being nominated for game of the year. It's Ryan.
Josh, our resident super editor extraordinaire. I hope you have your bleep button ready because there may be some stuff coming out with what we got here with the nominees. So that's all I'm going to say.
We might get our first Ryan rant in this episode. We'll have to see how spicy Ryan's feeling. And joining us, he's feeling a little bittersweet because he loves most of these indies, but now that they're mainstream game of the year slop, he can't say he likes them anymore. It's Ace.
I cannot sit idly by and let you call Hades 2 mainstream slop. You can call Peak that all you want, but you cannot call Hades 2.
What does this do to your psyche, Ace, where you're like, I love this game, but it's mainstream now. What am I supposed to do?
It's somewhat fulfilling to know I was right about these games before they got popular. There it is, the before.
That's fair. There it is. I knew before everybody else did. I liked this band before they were cool, man. Flick his hair.
Yeah.
And we all knew Silksong was mainstream before it was even released. More like mainstream.
Yeah, that's true. Oh, man. Oh, we're going to get there. We're going to get there. No spoilers yet, Ryan. We're two minutes into this episode. All right. Well, listen, welcome in, everybody. Thanks for joining us. We have a jam-packed episode for you guys. But we have somebody to thank. We're a little late on this one, so apologies on this. We've just been pre-recording a little bit of our episodes earlier, and so this one got delayed a little bit. But a huge thank you to Fran Magic for signing up for Rare Status to support the podcast. Fran, you are awesome. Thank you for taking the time to head over to Patreon and support this show. Keep this podcast flowing to the radio waves? Airwaves?
Internet waves. The internet waves. I don't think we're on the radio. Yeah, there you go.
There's no airwaves anymore, people. But thank you, Fran, for supporting this podcast. And then... And for everybody else out there, we like to reinforce good behavior. We like to say, hey, you help us out. We help you out. And one of the ways we do that is reading a review because, guys, the listeners have been stepping up. I don't know if it's the recent guilt trips. I don't know if it's the begging and pleading. I don't know what it is, but everybody out there has stepped up their game. The reviews have been flowing in, and Ryan, I believe you've got one for us today.
I do. I have been impressed with Josh's playing that violin quite often lately. He says, please give us a review. It's working, Ryan. Can I get some more reviews? Just a little bit, please. You know, begging works sometimes. We are not beneath it at all. Not in the slightest. This review comes to us from the amazing Magic 2AM, and it is titled The Best Gaming Podcast. And it reads as follows. I recently discovered this video gamer's podcast, and I have to say it's a real gem. The hosts are genuinely funny, and their chemistry makes every episode enjoyable. What I appreciate most is their honesty. They aren't afraid to share their true thoughts, whether they're raving about a new release or critiquing a classic.
They cover a wide variety of game genres, so there's always something new and interesting to hear about. I truly think these guys are great at what they do, and their passion for gaming shines through every discussion. If you're looking for a podcast that's entertaining, insightful, and covers all corners of gaming, this one is definitely worth a listen. Oh, what a fantastic review. What a review. I didn't write that one.
I agree with everything you said.
