Dialogue Options Podcast Episode 143: New Year, New Delays
18/01/2020 Duración: 01h09minGreetings listeners! We're back with our first episode for the brand new year, we've taken the last few weeks to enjoy some time off and plug away at several games that may have slipped under the radar in 2019 in preparation for our Game of the Year episodes. Those are a couple of weeks off yet, so join us as we tackle a week of surprisingly interesting news. Nintendo's theme park got a weird but fun music video, new downloadable content is coming to Pokemon Sword and Shield, several big games got delayed (including Cyberpunk after we finished recording), and Sony made the decision to officially skip E3 for a second year in a row. Kyran also tests Joel on the last decade of games by seeing if he can sort the 10 best scored Metacritic games from the 2010 - 2019 period. 2020 is already looking to be a crazy year for the video game industry with several heavy hitting titles due in the first few months and brand new consoles expected to arrive before the year is done. We hope you'll join us for

Dialogue Options Podcast Episode 141: The Jedi Life
11/12/2019 Duración: 01h44minGreetings listeners! We're back with a new episode, this week featuring both Kyran and Brendan talk about taking up lightsabers in Respawn's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, don't worry about story spoilers because this is basically all gameplay talk. Alongside that Brendan has dipping his toes in both Frostpunk and Greedfall whilst Kyran managed to complete Death Stranding and Pokemon Sword. Meanwhile on the news front we've got some sad but somewhat unsurprising news about both Battleborn and Elder Scrolls Legends winding down, Campo Santo's In the Valley of Gods being put on ice for the time being, a new BioShock officially being in development and discuss what we think might show up at the Game Awards this year. Brendan absolutely sold Kyran on the idea of Geralt in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and now any other character will personally be a disappointment to him. Tune in next week where we'll run through all the winners at the Game Awards and discover which of our two hosts will b

Dialogue Options Podcast Episode 140: Game Awards Nominee Showdown
25/11/2019 Duración: 02h13minGreetings listeners! We're back after a week off where we ran our side gig as Kojima's delivery boys, we're not quite done on that front but we just couldn't resist getting an episode together for this week. That's right, every one's favourite time of the year is coming! The nominees for the Game Awards 2019 were announced this past week so we sit down and go through each category and pick who we think will win. It proved as a good opportunity to really look back at 2019 and realise that maybe its being brushed off too lightly. We also announce our stakes, so whoever loses this one is in for a fun time. We also do have some Pokemon impressions this week in our Quest Log as well, we're not done with Galar yet but we do have some feelings.

09/11/2019 Duración: 02h11sGreetings listeners! On the show this week we've got a whole bunch of video game impressions as both of our hosts have actually had sufficient time to check some stuff out. Joel brings us his final verdict on Control (which includes some spoilers, time codes below) and talks about his time with Ring Fit Adventure, meanwhile Kyran offers some early impressions on his time with Astral Chain and Smash Bros. Ultimate's newest character, Terry. The backhalf of the show is packed full of Obsidian's The Outer Worlds and Night School's Afterparty (spoiler time codes below), so there's something for everyone. It was the eve of the release of Death Stranding, so we've been doing a lot of house keeping to make sure we are ready for our new job as a delivery boy for Hideo Kojima.

Dialogue Options Podcast Episode 138: The Apple of Joel's Eye
25/10/2019 Duración: 01h44minGreetings listeners! This week on the show Joel's been spending a lot of time checking out Apple's new subscription service, the Apple Arcade, and it turns out that he is a big fan! He's been playing three games in particular, Grind Stone, Bleak Sword, and What the Golf plus he also touches on where he stands with his playthrough of Astral Chain. Meanwhile in Dope or Nope it has been a somewhat quiet couple of weeks so we focus on two main topics.Firstly, Bethesda announce a surprisingly pricey subscription for Fallout 76 called "Fallout 1st", it'll set you back about $20 a month and we just don't really understand who it is for. Secondly, Sony's approach to the PlayStation 5 also provides us some interesting discussion even though we are a couple of weeks late to tackle the latest news on that front.

Dialogue Options Presents: The 2019 PAX-stravaganza Special
16/10/2019 Duración: 02h06minGreetings listeners! Over the past weekend PAX Australia kicked off and showcased a lot of exciting upcoming games, heaps of incredible panels, a ludicrous amount of talented cosplayers, and more. Joel and Kyran were both there to experience it all and what follows is two hours of straight game impressions, with a guest appearance from Brendan to talk about one particular game. We've thrown together the timecodes below if there is a specific part of the show you want to jump to but we can't emphasise enough how much we love this time of the year. There's nothing like starting your day by being blasted by Mick Gordon's Doom soundtrack before wandering into the show floor, barely awake nursing a coffee and seeing where your feet carry you.

09/10/2019 Duración: 01h46minGreetings listeners! This week Kyran is joined by his good friend Brendan to take a sizable bite out of Control as he finally gets to talk about the game without having to worry about spoiling Joel. The Control discussion starts at the 7 minute 45 second mark and run until about 53 minute 28 second mark, you've been warned! Beyond that we talk about Final Fantasy XII and get ourselves hyped up for PAX Australia. Beyond the Quest Log we've got a weird Dope or Nope this week, updates on Troy Baker not reprising his role as Rhys in Borderlands 3, Shawn Layden has stepped down from his position at SIE with little to no explanation why, and very recently Blizzard has found themselves on hot water over a controversial decision to punish Hearthstone player, blitzchung, after his comments in a post-match interview, which also resulted in them deciding to terminate two seemingly innocent casters who were working the event. The tweet that alerted us to it can be found here, it's worth looking into this s

03/09/2019 Duración: 02h38minGreetings listeners!

Meanwhile with Dope or Nope the conclusion of this year's Gamescom has given us some tasty announcements to chew on, Sony finally opens their wallet and acquires Insomniac and we talk about some of the shenanigans going on with Epic's approach to getting games on their store. There's a good post that sort of details our discussion on the Epic Game Store and their moves to try and secure DARQ as an exclusive for their platform here. Apologies for some of my coughs, I sn

18/08/2019 Duración: 02h05minGreetings listeners! We're back with a brand new episode of the podcast, it is jam packed with the games we've been playing largely thanks to the return of Joel. He's been busy learning the ropes as a father, but he rejoins us to talk about what the multitude of various games that he has been playing for the last few weeks, so strap in. The Quest Log was so packed this week that we decided to hold off on Dope or Nope and the Bonus Round, so sit back and get comfortable as Joel takes us through a journey as he discovered Dota Underlords, racing at break neck speeds in the Wipeout Omega Collection (including his time in VR), and so much more.

Dialogue Options Podcast Episode 133: Art of Anime War
06/08/2019 Duración: 02h44minGreetings listeners!

We've also got a new Dope or Nope for you, packed with the incompetence of the ESA and Capcom reaching out to their Resident Evil ambassadors to test some new mystery game, plus Brendan has cooked up some diabolical games to force Kyran to make some tough decisions (you can check out a playlist for the music game here).

Dialogue Options Podcast Episode 132: Gaming Grab Bag
21/07/2019 Duración: 01h55minGreetings listeners! This week's episode might sound a little bit different and that's because Joel has been a bit preoccupied with his newfound role in fatherhood!

We've got a literal grab bag of games for you this week, including but not limited to Anthem, Stellaris, Thronebreaker, Steamworld Dig 2, Rumu, and more. Meanwhile the news has been a little bit quiet as we sit in the lull between E3 and Gamescom, but that didn't stop Nintendo from announcing the Nintendo Switch Lite out of nowhere and later also confirming they would be selling an updated vanilla Nintendo Switch with more battery.
