Podcast 498 - Sneks on a Podcast! (Snake Pass, Blossom Tales, Horizon: Zero Dawn, and More!)

I'd love to hear what you guys, or Brad specifically, have to say about Routine. A game that Brad announced on Trailer Talk, a game that's been in development since 2013, and a game that was slated to come out in March of 2017 back in October of 2016 but has now been delayed a few months because the developers "didn't like one of its endings." Now people who have been following the development of this game feel scorned, and a large majority say they will be pirating the game to teach the developers a lesson.

That 75%, while passing, is the result of not listening to fans. That 75% is from new players to the Mass Effect series, and from those who didn't like the original trilogy. I mean, every single Mass Effect up till Andromeda was getting at least a 90% on metacritic. There's kind of a big gap there.

First off I want to say, I'm an hour into the podcast and Krispy is on fire, I've laughed many times.

Secondly- quick story: I have a 3-month old daughter and I was playing Zelda when my wife walked into the room carrying her. Baby saw the TV screen and my wife said: "Whoops, no Zelda for babies. You can start with Spyro later."

Guess I talk about your show at home a bit.

I am in now way a major Call of Duty fan and I've never beed a CoD defender, but I think some optimism is due for a new Call of Duty game that takes place in World War II. While it could very well be disappointing, the thought of a single player campaign on the same level as Modern Warfare one or two is exciting. After all, we live in a post Titanfall 2 world, in which a multiplayer game's single player campaign (no matter how short) can be worth the experience.

As someone who loves his 3DS and doesn't have a TV. I'll be very disappointed if Nintendo decides to ditch the dual screen layout for their portable line. Don't get me wrong I want the Switch to do well, but I believe that there are a lot of games that benefited from the unique design of the dual screen system (999 being the most obvious one).

Unless Nintendo figures out how to emulate those types of games on the Switch, I do hope that they persist with the 3DS line. Also the 3DS is a lot cheaper than a Switch, and I don't have a TV to utilise the dock mode. Switch to me, is a console that's portable, not a portable console like your traditional Gameboy/DS. Personally I much prefer a DS than a "better Vita".

I never really played the first destiny except for the beta and that pretty much gave you the full experience anyway, but I'm looking forward to the sequel. The fact that the game is coming to pc is a plus for me and its looking like the story has the chance to do a titanfall 2 and actually get people interested in paying attention to it. In closing keep doing what your doing xoxo and all that crap.

I'm more or less looking forward to the new CoD if only to see which part of the war they decide to cover. There are a lot of conflicts in ww2 that aren't as well known. For example the Kokoda Trail campaign, the siege of Leningrad, to name a few.

Also the bay of pigs invasion was covered in black ops 1 o-o /
