This was my first podcast episode because I wanted to know more about john johanas but damn some questions were way too fierce for my taste. I know you people are apparently friends but without knowing the baggage it felt like a interrogation a lot of the time. Good episode though

Yeah, Mark felt a bit aggressive at parts (though I totally got his frustration with the non-answers!). Great game and tons of respect towards Johanas & the team at Tango.

Mark asked all the burning questions I had for EW. The cat save was the best.

I love when Mark does interviews. He is always sooo on point.

He would be awesome on something like NoClip.

Nah, he just made a comment about prepping the other co-hosts in case he does, I think mainly because JJ left. It was probably a joke but with all the departures lately I dunno! I hope he doesn't.
He meant when he's out of town (like at GDC in a few weeks). :)

Amazing Episode. Also I'm a bit more optimistic that we are getting some Evil Within 2 dlc after that. Maybe a stand-alone budget release?

I was hoping someone would ask about the bandages on Sebastian's hand in The Evil Within 2 (unless someone did and I missed that part?) It's been bugging me!
Great interview and podcast.

I'm biased since TEW2 was my #3 GotY, but that was the best gaming podcast I've heard in ages. Actually hearing from a developer is so much better than even informed speculation about why a game did this or that.

Well, now I'm definitely playing TEW2 again. The only problem is, I semi-recently got a new PS4 after my original was stolen, and it looked like the system never uploaded my "game clear" save to the cloud. Kind of annoying, but I guess I'll have to play through the last few chapters again before I can start over.

OKAY YOU TALKED ME INTO IT YOU SMOOTH TALKER YOU

My favorite is Heart Shaker, which is unarguably their best song.



Roy's favorite is the inferior, but still pretty good, LIKEY.



Their Japanese singles are usually pretty trashy, but this BRAND NEW GIRL song, man... I think it works for me.

Just finished listening through it... that closing sing-along was PERFECT!

How can it be that I had the same thoughts through the Direct as you did? The "out in 2019" thing, the "I was told that Splatoon music was great" thing, the "Sushido? Really?" thing...

Guess that's why I'm first in line every other week with you guys since 2013 or so. Keep the good work.

You know what they say, if it's too loud then you're too old. Squiddy Smalls and Octopac have the freshest beats in Inkopolis

i haven't really been able to get into the podcast post JJ and Sarah. Mark and John are entertaining, but I couldn't tell you a damn thing about the rest of the cast. there's only so many kinda-interested-but-kinda-checking-my-phone voices i can parse at a given time.

Was Bloodborne actually discussed in this episode? I kept skipping and it was Monster Hunter, Monster Hunter, Monster Hunter every time.

I've picked up Monster Hunter since last episode so I can now enjoy the other 70% of the podcast that used to baffle me. I love that game keep talking about it.

This blasphemy against Splatoon's music SHALL NOT STAND.



And I contend the song used in the dlc trailer was good as well, as another one of their underwater-vocaloid-esque takes on a music genre.

In general if the show focused less on Mark and things that only Mark likes it would be a better show. More 7/11 and Macdonald talk more banter about John's instagram and stuff like that. It's nice to hear the more pleasant members of the podcast get to speak about what they like

Splatoon (2) is one of the most creative and innovative pieces of art of our generation.

They can't see the light, Jintor. They just can't see it.

what was up with that "ghetto" comment during the monster hunter discussion? That was so off-putting. That and J.J.'s "black friend" joke puts a damper on this whole thing for me
