Bottled Fuchsia has finally decided the time is now to share their bi-weekly video game podcast with the world! Join a group Philadelphia and Delaware area friends as they discuss recently played games, break down current news, and just try to figure out how this industry works.
Philadelphia and Delaware Area
The Fuchsia crew use their sinister left hands to play some games. Nanners and Kay plunge back into Minecraft. Conman checks out part-RTS/part-TTB game Age of Wonders: Planetfall, admires the voice acting for John Cena in WWE 2K19, then drags Brady into some Counterstrike after rage-uninstalling Apex Legends. Brady investigates some supernatural weirdness in Unavowed. Kitty continues makin’ Marios, Aaron plays through procedurally-generated metroidvania Chasm, and Kay takes time out of her spaghetti trail around Minecraft to ride elevators with Conman in Wolfenstein: Youngblood. This one was (kind of obviously) recorded some time ago, but two months in the Audacity oven couldn’t improve the audio quality of some of the voice tracks. Sorry for it sounding a little rough!
It's back to business as usual for Fuchsia: makin' Marios, exploring Hell, and collecting love points from employed villagers.
Seriously, could no one hear us this entire time? Jon, Aaron, and Brady recap the games they've been playing since February.
We did it. We made a list. Listen to it and agree, or don’t. That was 2018 games, we are on to these 2019 games now, so it doesn’t matter! 10. Destiny 2: Forsaken 9. Tetris Effect 8. Overcooked 2 7. Red Dead Redemption II 6. Celeste 5. Into the Breach 4. Monster Hunter: World 3. Dead Cells 2. Marvel‘s Spider-Man ™ 1. God of War
Time to really make some cuts and have some fights. We trim the list down to our ten and get ready to do some ordering. More Malört is drank.
In 2018 I made the statement "Well, at least making a list is easy since not many good games are out yet this year."
It’s that time where we sit down with a large list of games and slowly whittle it down. Join us as we make some early cuts in part one of creating our group top ten list.
Aaron returns to us with talk of Destiny and pins. Kitty talks about what games can be with Florence. Conman finds a Battle Royale he doesn't hate. Kay wonders why she's playing Monster Hunter and Nanners Plays every game.
2018 sure was a year. I laughed; I cried; I used a piece of tape and maple syrup to stick cat hair to my face to commit passport fraud.
This was not my best year for playing current hot games.
2018 was a weird year for me, gaming wise.
Like NPR we are here to talk about Granola and Cats. Oh, we do talk about video games too.
It's been a while, but we're back in the saddle to talk about video games.
The Bottled Fuchsia team plays catchup during the slow summer release season.
The recording gods totally didn't eat our original recording. We just recapped E3 2018 very quickly.
The Bottled Fuchsia crew talks about some very current games.
This one takes a TURN on the back-half, so stay tuned. Inexplicably, the entire fuchsia crew is live and in-person for this one!
Nanners’s Harry Potter/WWE fanfic gets real odd this week. Kitty joins with all the feels during A Night in the Woods. Aaron joins us for the first in a long time and has been playing Legend of Zelda the random surprise version. They both play Kirby’s Epic Yarn and turns out, its not a knitting simulator. Kay finds herself wondering what even are video games anymore then sends us off track about the many phases of Nevilles. Brady plays a flawless Assassin’s Creed: Origins and a pretty great Grim Dawn. Jon plays Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, too, but mostly tells us about his adventures with “boy!”. Nanners plays God of War and agrees, Jon gives great game recommendations. In a special news related segment this week, we go back to past E3’s to find the games that time forgot and get sad over all the games that never came to be.
Kitty plays adventure games. Kay hates Wolfenstein DLC. Brady gets really into Assassin's Creed a year too late, Nanners doesn't play much and Conman plays with his mechs in Battletech.
We're in the calm before the E3 storm of announcements. Everyone is staying the course.
Jon revisits one of his favorite RPGs. Brady does some Switch stuff. Conman achievement hunts in WoW. Nanners plays with VR. Pretty standard stuff right?
We have a full house on in this episode of the Bottled Fuchsiacast. Which one of us is Uncle Jesse?
This week we invent a new genre of games. Do you like rouge-likes? How bout l4d-likes? Good, cause we played a few of them. Also on the playlist is a bunch of early access shenanigans. We also kinda just played the same new hotness this week, so no individual lists. In Sea of Thieves (Early Access) we all learn the difference between port and starboard and use those words like a real pirate. In Deep Rock Galactic(Early Access) we dance as dwarves and mine some minerals with sketchy looking hands. The group also plays Vermintide 2 (Early Access, but out now!) from the Warhammer universe and kill some rats. Lastly the group plays an actually released game and takes some turns in Into the Breech.
This week we re-live our most fond moments with Ventrilo as we say good-bye to Conman's vent server 2005 - 2018, RIP.
Adult Diapers. Dragon Ball. Minecraft. Celeste. Night in the Woods. Paper Mario.
In a year where a Nintendo console launched with new Mario and Zelda titles, it was amazing that Aaron managed to play anything else at all.
Welcome everyone to the List… of Conman. With all due respect to Chris Jericho, this is the list that you want to be on. Play it on, maaan. As it turns out, this actually is the first time I’ve ever written anything here for Bottled Fuchsia. So hello friends! I can’t believe those suckers wonderful folks let me join them this year. Especially since they’re all wrong about the things and I yelled at them for it. For example, you might notice the lack of a certain multiPlayer experience here in my choices. There aren’t too many Unknowns why; but let’s just say that it didn’t make through the scrutiny of the gaming Battlegrounds. Instead, what this does Is open up some room for some more deserving titles. No Crap here friends. Except maybe for my shame title. With that said, let’s jump right in and start with some awards, because this is my list and I can put this in any order that I want to. Awards Most Feels: Nier: Automata **** This game maaaaay come up a few times here. Possibly. Maybe. Oh man does this thing have the feels. I came into Nier expecting a nice little Sci-Fi [...]
I have two rules for "Kay Games": make it cute as hell or make it violent as hell. Either one will hook me. Guess which way my list skewed this year?
100 Android Phantom Marios drop into Hyrule... Never mind.
2017 was another fantastic year for video games, and eliminating guinea worms. Get fucked guinea worms, and no don't Google guinea worms. With no other pre-amble here we go!
One of those silly battle royale games sure did dominate my list this year. I managed to pull myself away from it long enough to play some other games though.
This week on a very small airport-approved bottled fuchsia, we discuss what games we've been into lately. Kay plays TF2. Aaron and Kitty play Cuphead together and surprisingly are still on friendly terms. Nanners plays some awful(?) VR games.
We are about to make you really uncomfortable with ever wearing any colored accessory ever again. Conman, Brady, Jon, Kay and Nanners discuss this week in hurry-up-and-play-by-the-goty-podcast games. In the news we judge the Steam Awards and games coming in 2018.
This week we give Nanners the tribute he deserves and turn him into a verb. Have you ever Nanners’d? We have. Aaron plays Breath of the Wild, but this time on a bike. Brady lets some zombies into his base in They Were Billions. Jon walks like an Egyptian in Assassin’s Creed Origins. Kay plays a game she can’t pronounce, but it sure it pretty and puzzle-y. Nanners plays some VR games that he didn’t put enough hours into the first time with Fallout VR and Talos Principle. News: PUBG is official, hooray, GOTY: solved. The Game Awards happened. Sure. Games Mentioned: PUBG Path of Exile Gorogoa Monument Valley They Were Billions Breath of the Wild Cuphead Talos Principle VR Fallout 4 VR
We're visited by the ghosts of GotY past as we re-read our top ten lists dating all the way back to 2013. Recorded during our 24 hour Extra Life marathon!
My Game Hidden by Doritos and Nobody Dies
None of the stories this week end well.
The Fall/Holiday game season is upon us! Jon and Conman gush over Shadows of War. Kay sets a reminder to finish the last 10 minutes of Wolfenstein. Nanners explains Gundam Breakers 3 which sounds like a game he may have accidentally dreamed about and made real.
Jon is held captive by work in Pittsburgh so the inmates run the asylum on this episodes of the Bottled Fuchsiacast.
You’ve been warned. There’s a lot of Italian nipple in this podcast. This week is just all the PUBG talk, we discuss our loves and hates of the game. There’s a fair amount of Destiny too, we especially get salty about the color of our armor. Stunt Nanners is here, Conman plays Stick of Truth. Jon and Brady play Horizon: Zero Dawn and murder all the baby robots.
The answers to life the universe and everything.
This week the Bottled Fuchsia crew discusses Kingsway, Zelda: BotW, Slime Rancher and Pyre. There's a fair about of PUBG, Persona and Pokemon along the way too.
This week Nanners nearly forgets that he bought a Switch. He also finishes Prey. Brady chases the high of a chicken dinner in PUBG and kills his ghost in Hallow Knight. Aaron triumphs in Destiny, and also gets the Master Sword. Jon finishes Persona5. In NEWS! Atari has a new console out, Castlevania on Netflix is worth a view, and Nintendo’s squid simulator online app is released.
We seem to be sad about our videotapes, but I swear we aren't. Aaron plays Badge Arcade, Brady & Nanners get really into Prey, and Kay finally beats Persona 5.
Jon survived E3 and came home with new Arms! Aaron may still be lost in LA? Brady set an elaborate trap for himself in Prey. We have a Persona 5 check-in with Kay. Nanners gets himself a mech in Brigador: Up-Armored Edition. After catching up, the Fuchsia team discusses some E3 press conference highlights.
Whatever you heard, we totally don't play free to play games, free trials only here.
