Ep. 82 - Trigger Witch

Connor continues his rant on Dying Light 2, and how it has worsened. After his Halo marathon last year, Kale finally sinks into Halo Infinite. While he agrees the overall gameplay feels like classic Halo, something feels like it's missing in the game, and he can't quite place it. What made the other Halo's memorable while this one will most likely fade away?  Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/super-clash-store/

Hosts Connor and Kale discuss the issues with the state of Dying Light 2, and the experience of playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land co-op.  https://www.bonfire.com/store/super-clash-store/ 

What happens when you give in to your hyper-fixations? You play the second entry immediately after discussing the first, precisely what Kale has done. Right off the heels of the Dead Space remake, he dusted off his Xbox 360 and booted up Dead Space 2. Connor also tries something different and dips his toe into the roguelike game Slay the Spire. He liked the moment to moment, but the rest left much to be desired. What caused him to fall off of it?

In the isometric adventure game Toem, the journey you take matters most—not the plot. take in the environment, snap pictures, and listen to soothing music. Whereas in HuniePop, fulfill your wifu dreams as you match tiles to gain the favor of the characters in this dating-sim/puzzler. 

Kale lied. He was supposed to play Toem this week, but he couldn't be pulled away from the Dead Space remake. Connor scolds him for it, before talking about Minecraft Dungeons. 

Connor and Kale finally have some games to discuss after their vacation. The Ascent, a twin-stick shooter with Diablo influences, had a lot of good ideas but struggled to put them into practice. And the adventure puzzler Iris Fall, which makes use of shadows and light.  Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/super-clash-store/

Hosts Kale and Connor acclimate themselves to the new hybrid format by discussing two games: Nobody Saves the World, an indie RPG dungeon crawler centered around changing into different forms.

Kale here. Sorry for the poor(er) audio quality. Connor and I recorded this announcement in our homes, where we don't have as good equipment as in his studio. Just bear with us; we hope 2023 will be a good year for games!
