Dialogue Options-A Video Games Podcast

Greetings listeners! Joel has been playing Final Fantasy VII Remake, but unlike Kyran he's spent his first few hours coming at it separated from the heavy nostalgia that Kyran holds for it. He weighs in on how he's finding the story, characters, and combat in these early stages all keeping things pretty spoiler free still (Soon we'll be able to fully spill the beans). Meanwhile we are...

Greetings listeners! It's been a quiet several weeks at this stage, both in terms of what we've been playing and what has been going on in the world of video games, so this week's episode is a somewhat lean Quest Log.

Greetings Listeners! This week on the show we have a chance to talk about our early time with Animal Crossing, which has been serving as a fulfilling distraction from real-world issues that are taking their toll on everyone at the moment.

Greetings listeners, It's finally time for us to sit down and talk about 2019. We took an extra few weeks in January this year to try and squeeze in a few extra games, so that we could truly feel satisfied with our lists.
