Dialogue Options-a Video Games Podcast

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode of the podcast and once again we are joined by Jesse to work through our stacked Quest Log. Jesse, Joel, and Kyran all talk about their time with Marvel Snap, an incredibly addictive mobile/PC card game that captured us all with how accessible it is and talk about some our favourite cards and battlefields before touching on what we'd like to see added to the game going forward. Kyran offers his early impressions on a new survival-horror game, Signalis, and talks about its ability to tap into his fond memories of the early days of franchises like Resident Evil and Silent Hill with a bonus dose of his opinion on the Shadow of Rose DLC for Resident Evil Village. Meanwhile Joel has been checking out Bayonetta 3 and tells about the newest instalment in the little franchise that could. Thanks again to Jesse for joining us and for all of you for supporting us, if you want to reach out to us you can do so by hitting up the links below! (Plus don't forge

Greetings listeners! We're finally back having survived PAX and gotten ourselves back on schedule, this episode took a bit to get going because we are actually a part of the Story Mode family now so we took some time to make sure our episodes wouldn't double up on content. The result is a glorious jam packed Quest Log episode where Joel and Kyran are joined by Jesse to talk about the list of games they've been playing. Joel has spent some time with Destiny 2's Festival of the Lost and Overwatch 2, whilst Kyran has played through Observation and Tunic in their entirety, and Jesse has sampled Scorn and begun his journey in Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope! We had a great time recording this and urge you to check out Story Mode's range of content (which we are now happy to be a part of) including their new YouTube channel that you should make sure you are subscribed to. As always thanks for listening and we'll catch you all next time. You can get in touch with us using any of the links bel

Greetings listeners! On this week's Quest Log Joel's talks about the new rhythm shooter now available on Game Pass, Metal Hellsinger, and Kyran talks about a cute monochrome photography game, Toem, and Capcom's action horror blockbuster, Resident Evil 5.  Meanwhile in our Bonus Round we try to touch on some of the big stories that have surfaced over the last couple of weeks (and boy has there been a lot). We talk a little about the State of the Play and Nintendo Direct presentations before digging into the Ryu Ga Gotoku Summit where a handful of new Yakuza/Like a Dragon games were announced. Thanks for listening and look forward to a PAX episode (probably one before, during and after) in the coming weeks!

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode (slightly delayed by a couple of days so we could be joined by our guest!) This week Jesse from Story Mode Gaming joins us to break down Massive Monster's 2022 smash hit, Cult of the Lamb. We talk about the game generally before leaping headfirst into a slightly more spoiler-filled territory, turns out a game about running a cult filled with some cute animal folk, building up a home for them, and slaying ancient Gods ends up being a pretty good time. SOME LIGHT CULT OF THE LAMB SPOILERS START AT 0:29:20 AND END BY 0:53:45 Then we move into a new instalment of Dope or Nope where we break down the recent Ubisoft Forward, touching on topics like Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, Just Dance, and a deluge of Assassin's Creed announcements (some exciting, some perplexing) As always thank you for your support and don't forget to go and check out Story Mode Gaming at the links below (plus use our links if you want to reach out to us as well!)

Greetings listeners, We're back with another episode that we tastefully pushed back a week to cover two massive events! First up we've got a Dope or Nope where Kyran pulls up a list of pretty much every game that showed up in some form in Geoff Keighley's Gamescom Opening Night Live showcase, there's some dopes, there's some nopes, then there's some stuff that Kyran just left out intentionally. We then wrap up the show with a Bonus Round where we talk about the Destiny showcase where Bungie threw back the curtain on Lightfall, the game's forthcoming expansion dropping in early 2023. We also take some time to talk about how exciting some of the changes coming to the game in the future are. As always thank you for listening! We've got a Quest Log in the pipeline where we'll finally talk about Cult of the Lamb, so keep an eye out for that episode in the future. You can hit us up using the links below!

Greetings listeners! We're back with a slightly delayed episode of the show after Joel faced off against the spicy cough for a second time and Kyran claws his way back out from under the weight on his work days. This week we've got a Quest packed with Joel's impressions of Returnal, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and early impressions of the free-to-play brawler, Multiversus meanwhile Kyran has conquered Stray and began his journey into the wilderness of Xenoblade Chronicles 3. We also quickly dip into the Bonus Round to talk about the latest information for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet plus Joel walks us through the recent Annapurna Interactive showcase.

Greetings listeners! We're back with a Dope or Nope filled episode of the Dialogue Options Podcast. This week we talk about the recently announced release dates for both God of War: Ragnarok and Bayonetta 3, Elden Ring's incredible sales, EA's Skate game releasing as a free-to-play service game, and much more. We also make time for a quick Bonus Round where we talk about the upcoming return of E3 in 2023 and whether we think ReedPop joining forces with the ESA will benefit the show or will it continue to be plagued with issues.  If you want to reach out to us and let us know your E3 hot takes then you can reach us using the links below!

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode and finally touching upon our Quest Log as the dust of the Summer Game Fest settles around us. Plenty of games come up in this episode, but mostly we talk about TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, Jurassic World Evolution 2's BioSyn expansion, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, Xenoblade Chronicles (1 + 2) and a few other smaller games that come up naturally. We also do a quick lightning round thumbs up or thumbs down for the latest Nintendo Direct Mini that finally confirmed that the Persona series (or at least 3, 4 and 5) are finally coming to Nintendo's platform. News will probably be slim picking for the next few weeks now we are on the road to Gamescom, so expect more Quest Log oriented episodes in the future.

Greetings listeners! We're back with another special Summer (Winter?) Games Fest episode of the show, this time covering the Xbox + Bethesda showcase.  In what looked and felt the most like an E3 presentation of old we were given a long list of games to digest, with Xbox promising that the majority of them should be out within the next 12 months. They had first party stuff to show like Redfall, Forza Motorsport, and Starfield plus a bunch of interesting third party announcements to spice things up like Hollow Knight: Silksong and the first official Xbox release for Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 5 Royal. Due to it being such a packed show we've put together another Dope or Nope episode to help make the news a bit easier to tackle, but if there's anything we should have given more time to we'd love to hear from you!

Greetings listeners! We're back with a strange mid-week episode of the show to celebrate the newest Keigh-3 (E3 replacement) with 2022's Summer Game Fest kick off.

We saw new trailers for Street Fighter 6, Neon White, TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, and The Last of Us Part 1, so join us as we attempt to Dope or Nope our way through the show to uncover what we enjoyed about it. We'll have another episode this week covering the Xbox + Bethesda showcase and another next week we'll try to bring the best of the rest into the spotlight.

Greetings listeners, It's time for another episode of the Dialogue Options Podcast and this time we break down the latest State of Play from PlayStation and the official kick off for 2022's Summer (Winter for Australians I guess?) Game Fest. It turns out Sony is getting better at these showcases as this was easily one of their strongest showings. Resident Evil 4 Remake is officially announced, we got confirmation that the Callisto Protocol is releasing this December, Final Fantasy XVI's release has slipped into 2023, plus a bunch of neat smaller announcements. Look forward to hearing from us next week as we sift through the deluge of events that will be going down over the weekend.

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode and this time Jesse Munro (from the Story Mode Gaming Podcast) helps Joel and Kyran sift through a pretty packed list of discussion points in a new Dope or Nope. Warner Bros. officially revealed the debut trailer for Multiversus, Microsoft and Bethesda have officially delayed both Starfield and Redfall, Jeff Grubb has heard that the long rumoured Last of Us Remake is potentially dropping this holiday season, plus we've got a healthy dose of the newest Silent Hill rumours that point to potentially three games being in development. We also wrap up with a discussion about the new PlayStation Plus being rolled out next month now that Sony has been generous to provide us with Australian pricing and a list of games that should be available when the service launches later in June. Special thanks to Jesse for joining us for this chaos, we strongly recommend you go and check out Story Mode Gaming if you don't already, you may even find us popping up again

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode of the show, which happens to include an absolutely packed grab bag Quest Log segment as Joel talks to us about his time with several different games including Rogue Legacy 1, Loot River, Citizen Sleeper, and completing Elden Ring; meanwhile Kyran has been competing in Destiny 2's Guardian Games and attempting to save everyone's souls in an abandoned Tokyo in Ghostwire Tokyo. Over in the Bonus Round we talk about Square Enix's massive decision to sell off some of their Western studios (Crystal Dynamics and Eidos) to Embracer Group for USD$300 million, plus we find some time to talk about the latset Final Fantasy XVI updates and Xbox / Summer Game Fest locking in their June dates as we head into what we once knew as E3 season.

Greetings listeners, We're back with a new episode of the show! We unfortunately had to delay our latest episode by a week or so as Kyran unfortunately ended up catching the spicy cough and having to isolate for a solid week. The good news is that he finally had some time whilst he was locked up in his room to play some games that aren't Elden Ring. On the Quest Log this week Joel talks a little bit about his progress with Elden Ring (and Kyran tries to keep his contributions to a minimum) as well as reliving his childhood with last year's Hot Wheels racing game, meanwhile Kyran finally gets a chance to talk about Triangle Strategy and the ultimate palette cleanser in the form of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Over in this week's Dope or Nope we have a lot of stuff to talk about, some of it recent and some of it a few weeks old but still relevant to what we talk about on this show. The oldest news is related to E3 2022 being cancelled in all forms (but really who was surprised about that) and i

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode of the show and yeah... it's more Elden Ring. Since it is pretty much all Kyran has been playing he couldn't resist doing another episode on it, but in order to give Joel a break he has subbed in Brendan to talk about his thoughts on From Software's latest gauntlet. We try to steer clear of major spoilers and boss / location names and also take some chances to look back at the legacy of From Software and how they've grown with the many releases in the storied Soulsbourne games. Kyran also promises that he won't talk extensively about Elden Ring again now until he is finished with the game. Are you playing Elden Ring? Let us know how you are going! Otherwise we'll be back next episode with some different games! Hit us up using any of the links below!

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode, tastefully delayed for a day to cover the recent State of Play from Sony! Kicking things off we've got a Quest Log packed with some brief impressions of Destiny 2 The Witch Queen, Kirby and the Forgotten Land's demo, and Devolver's Tumble Time before wading into our meaty and enthusiastic conversation about Elden Ring. We talk about how we've found our time in the Lands Between and our many deaths at the hand of various different bosses and hazards. Meanwhile in Dope or Nope we break down all of the announcements from the State of Play, including the bizarre Exoprimal where it literally rains dinosaurs and Square Enix managing to avoid naming yet another SRPG as an official entry in the Final Fantasy Tactics franchise. We also find time for a brief discussion on those adorable new Pokemon starters for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. If you want to get in touch with us then hit us up using the links below!

Greetings listeners! We're back with our first regular episode of the year and we've got a juicy Quest Log ahead of a gift wrapped Nintendo Direct to start off 2022 in the best way possible. Joel and Kyran have spent some time with Game Freak's newest Pokémon game that hopes to shake up the formula, the results are mixed but there's still positive things that can be taken from this game and carried forward with the series. Joel's also rediscovered Fortnite and talks about his grind with OlliOlli World whilst Kyran's been setting several new Jurassic World parks and trying to keep those rowdy dinosaurs under control. Elsewhere the first Nintendo Direct has arrived and given us plenty of announcements and updates to chew on, including Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Live A Live plus updates on Advance Wars, Triangle Strategy, and more. We're looking forward to another big year with SEVERAL heavy hitters landing in the next few weeks, we hope you'll join

Greetings listeners! We made it through 2021! But before we put it to rest and look forward to all the great new games coming up in 2022 (we are in the month of Elden Ring!) it's time to take a final look back at the year that was. Both Joel and Kyran have put together top ten lists for their personal Game of the Year lists in the same manner as last year, it's something we found incredibly fun so decided to give it another shot! Kyran's list starts at 0:13:39 and Joel's list starts at 0:28:17. It was another surprisingly good year for games, we also make some time for shout outs for games that didn't make the cut or we didn't play enough of to really put them in the running to make our lists. Thanks for sticking with us for another year, we've got a packed Quest Log episode coming up with both of us currently getting lost in the Hisui region in Pokemon Legends Arceus, so you can look out for our impressions on that soon! If you want to get in touch with us, especially if you want

Greetings listeners! We're back with our final episode for the year! We start with a Quest Log where we finally make time for some juicy spoiler-filled discussion for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy now that Joel has hit credits and can finally talk freely about one of 2021's biggest surprises, and Kyran makes time for some early Halo Infinite impressions. MARVEL'S GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY SPOILERS 0:25:36 TO 0:49:52 Meanwhile in our Bonus Round we break down the latest Keighley's and go over some of the surprises at the award show, including wins that made us happy, losses that bummed us out, and who won our little wager this year. We also break down the reveals in a very ad-filled year for the show, if there's any we didn't get excited enough about then let us know!

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode we have a small Quest Log as Joel tries to talk about Inscryption without spoiling what made it blow his mind and Kyran gushes over one of this year's most revered indie titles, Death's Door. It's that time of the year again, folks! The Keighleys are just around the corner and we're back with another prediction showdown where both Joel and Kyran run through the list of nominees and say who they voted for and who they think will win. This year we've decided to pass on the esports and content creator awards as we just didn't know enough about any of the nominees to make an informed choice. We also spare a little time at the end for some predictions and wild hopes for announcements and reveals we may see at the Game Awards.
