Dialogue Options-A Video Games Podcast

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode of the show and yeah... it's more Elden Ring. Since it is pretty much all Kyran has been playing he couldn't resist doing another episode on it, but in order to give Joel a break he has subbed in Brendan to talk about his thoughts on From Software's latest gauntlet. We try to steer clear of major spoilers and boss / location names...

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode, tastefully delayed for a day to cover the recent State of Play from Sony! Kicking things off we've got a Quest Log packed with some brief impressions of Destiny 2 The Witch Queen, Kirby and the Forgotten Land's demo, and Devolver's Tumble Time before wading into our meaty and enthusiastic conversation about Elden Ring. We talk abo...

Greetings listeners! We're back with our first regular episode of the year and we've got a juicy Quest Log ahead of a gift wrapped Nintendo Direct to start off 2022 in the best way possible. Joel and Kyran have spent some time with Game Freak's newest Pokémon game that hopes to shake up the formula, the results are mixed but there's still positive things that can be taken from this...

Greetings listeners! We made it through 2021! But before we put it to rest and look forward to all the great new games coming up in 2022 (we are in the month of Elden Ring!) it's time to take a final look back at the year that was. Both Joel and Kyran have put together top ten lists for their personal Game of the Year lists in the same manner as last year, it's something we found incredibl...

Greetings listeners! We're back with our final episode for the year! We start with a Quest Log where we finally make time for some juicy spoiler-filled discussion for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy now that Joel has hit credits and can finally talk freely about one of 2021's biggest surprises, and Kyran makes time for some early Halo Infinite impressions. MARVEL'S GUARDIANS OF TH...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode we have a small Quest Log as Joel tries to talk about Inscryption without spoiling what made it blow his mind and Kyran gushes over one of this year's most revered indie titles, Death's Door. It's that time of the year again, folks! The Keighleys are just around the corner and we're back with another prediction showdown where both Joe...

Greetings listeners, we're back with another episode! On this week's show we focus entirely on what we've been playing with a Quest Log only episode, which tracks given Kyran held everyone up in October to gush about Metroid (sorry not sorry). Joel and Kyran have both reached credits on the incredibly simple and fun Unpacking from Witch Beam Games and discuss how much they enjoyed the...

Greetings listeners! We're back with a special episode this week, or rather we are releasing an episode we recorded especially for PAX Australia's PAX Radio back in October. On this episode we return to our good ol' 'Kill Your Babies' / 'Battle Royale' format by picking a list of Australian indie games and attempting to crown our favourite, whilst hurting each other alo...

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode of the podcast and a second episode focused on Metroid Dread (probably our last one, thanks to Joel and everyone for humouring Kyran). We spent the start of the episode doing a spoiler-free recap of our thoughts now that we've both rolled credits before rolling into breaking down the game's story, running through the game's bosse...

The fated day has arrived! Metroid Dread is finally here! The long awaited fifth (and final) entry in the original Metroid story arc has officially released on the Nintendo Switch just last week. So we decided we'd strike while the iron was hot and sit down to dish on our early impressions on the newest Metroid title. We do our best to avoid major spoilers beyond what was initially shown in th...

Greetings listeners! On this week's show we have a PACKED Quest Log, both Joel and Kyran have early impressions for both Dreamscaper and Tales of Arise respectively, both games they'll be circling back on at a later date. We then talk about how we've been finding Eastward, the first game from Chinese developer Pixpil, and gush about how much we love the game's visuals and Zelda-lik...

Greetings listeners! Sorry about the episode being a little late, this week has been another bumpy one in a long string of similarly bumpy ones as we continue to feel a bit fatigued by the endless barrage of stuff that 2021 continues to throw our way. First up we've got a Quest Log where Kyran goes over his return to Destiny 2 with the recent launch of the Season of the Lost ahead of 2022'...

Greetings listeners! On this week's Quest Log we've got a bit of a mixed bag of impressions from Joel who's been spending a little time with Art of Rally, the Ollie Ollie games on Switch, and dipped his toes in the Riders Republic open beta that recently took place. Meanwhile Kyran managed to finish NEO The World Ends With You and attempts to tell Joel how cool it is to have a sequel t...

Greetings listeners! Joel fills Kyran in on his fresh enrolment at Dodgeball Academia where he sharpens his Dodgeball skills to kick off this week's Quest Log. We also talk about our very early impressions from the recently released Boyfriend Dungeon (date those weapons!) and facing the hordes of the undead in Back 4 Blood's Open Beta. Meanwhile over in the Bonus Round we break down the mo...

Greetings listeners! It's been a bit of a weird couple of weeks, so we hope you'll bare with us for this week's episode. First up we've got the Quest Log, where both Kyran and Joel have synced up on a couple of games that have come out fairly recently! We start with Pokémon Unite, a free to play Pokémon themed MOBA that dropped on the Switch, and are both quite surprised at how enj...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode of the show Joel's been playing Boomerang X and gives Kyran the low down on it in the Quest, additionally we talk a little too much about Mass Effect without saying anything because we can't help ourselves, and Kyran has reached credits on Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart. He also tries to convince Joel to play Metroid (and hopefully Zero Missi...

Greetings listeners! On this week's Quest Log we've been dabbling in some different games. Joel and Kyran share their early impressions on the demo for Neo: The World Ends With You (a game that we still can't believe actually exists). Kyran tells Joel about his very early thoughts on Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart for the PS5, and lastly Joel's been getting a hit of FPS throwback...

Greetings listeners! We're back after taking a week to process E3 and scroll through the lists of games that were announced or updated over the course of five or so very crazy days. Our E3 wrap is a little different this year, purely because of how condensed every presentation was and the lack of free time we actually had to break it all down (it'd be so many episodes) we decided instead t...

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode and it just so happens to be a super sized one. In the Quest Log we talk briefly about our time with the recent Scarlet Nexus demo, a new anime game from Bandai Namco, before moving into a surprisingly busy Dope or Nope packed with updates on Dragon Quest, Far Cry 6, and a new Horizon: Forbidden West State of Play. Lastly, in the Bonus Round...

Greetings listeners! On this episode's Quest Log Joel's been putting more time into both Monster Hunter Rise and continuing his efforts to reach the end of Nier Replicant. Meanwhile Kyran has serves up a fresh dose of thalassophobia with his early impressions of Unknown World's Subnautica Below Zero, a game which offers more ocean survival on a smaller scale with some nice quality of l...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode we're cheating a little with our Quest Log and incorporating a couple of movies into what is typically our 'what we've been playing' segment. We've been down to the local cinemas to see the latest live action Mortal Kombat film and suffered through the Monster Hunter movie, we bring you our thoughts on both and let me just say one...

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode and this time we're making good on something we've been meaning to get to, Joel has hit credits on Persona 5 Strikers. We take some time to talk about some broad thoughts about the game as a while as well as dedicating about 15 or so minutes to spoiler discussion. Persona 5 Strikers spoilers start 0:14:48 at and end at 0:32:41 Additi...

Greetings listeners! Welcome back to another episode of the show, this time around we've got another Quest Log focused episode due to a quiet week on the news front. First up, Joel's briefly found some time to check out People Can Fly's new looter shooter Outriders thanks to the power of Xbox Game Pass, then Kyran weighs in on a brand new demo for a Metroid fan game called Prime 2D (an...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode of the show we've got a short and sweet Quest Log. Joel is still chipping away at Persona 5 Strikers but has also felt himself feeling the call of the likes of Magic the Gathering and Hearthstone, meanwhile Kyran checks out the newly released PlayStation 5 version of Marve's Avengers and throws himself into the fourth season of Fall Guys. The...

Greetings listeners! Sorry about the lack of episode last week! It was a decision we came to due to the lack of news and our own lack of new games having been played, but this week we invited Brendan back to help us bolster a Quest Log focused episode. First up Joel gives us some more of his thoughts on Persona 5 Strikers whilst also managing to side track us with Persona discussion in general, Ky...
