This week, there’s no notes, just talking about the current events, such as Microsoft’s multiplatform strategy and the new games that have come out, especially Foundation, a city-builder in the style of The Settlers.
This week is slow in terms of videogame industry news, but rich on developer stories told by Paul, so be prepared for a lot of advice for the kid who wants to make games instead of just play them.
Diablo is a classic title with endings for each class you can play, but all give you the same result: hell and torment. You battle your way through a very difficult game, defeating legions of evils minions, piling their corpses upon the floor as you dig deeper into hell.
Eventually, you battle the essence of hell itself: Diablo. However, the ending does not give you warm fuzzies. The ending shows the results of a man with a burden and ends with the transfer of such burden.
Pure evil. Pure fun. Exciting and well crafted ending. For more talk on cinematic endings, listen to the TD Gaming Podcast Episode 75.
This episode is half-length, but still has the guys talking about Bam Margera being officially confirmed for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4, the Original Stalker trilogy getting an Enhanced Edition upgrade on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, and Atlus teases next Persona game, livestream this week.
The news items includes:
Valve issues statement refuting claims of a Steam data security breach
Ubisoft moving “some of our biggest productions” into 2026 and 2027 after positive impact of Assassin’s Creed Shadows delay
Hi guys!
Sorry for the late reply! I simply forgot to comment 🙂
Thanks for the episode even if I did not play any of these games. I was never much interested in Civ or similar games.
I played the hell out of Path of exile 2 …. it’s an awesome game if you like these kind of games.
Please stay healthy and keep going!
Greetings from Germany,
