As Paul’s departure as a regular host is in 10 episodes, Jonah rants about the Batmobile in Batman: Arkham Knight and talks about the painlessness of Fallout Shelter‘s micro-transactions. The other part of the podcast is them talking Heroes of Might & Magic II, and discussing what makes a good expansion.
The news items include:
- Lack of female character choice in The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes explained
- Australian government bans hundreds of mobile and Web-based games
- Nintendo has no problems changing franchises, despite fan outcry
- Apple pulls games with Confederate flag imagery
All this plus Listener Feedback and Paul’s indignation.
