Hello and welcome to HBR News where we talk about the news of the week! This week we talk about a UK law that will make wolf whistling illegal... if you're a man, Chris Avellone is the new Johnny Depp, and more!

It's a week of surprise turnarounds and unexpected outcomes. First up: Has Sony flown too close to the sun? In trying to halt Microsoft's acquisition of Activision, it may have exposed itself to critical governmental and social attention it would have otherwise never garnered. And the deal's probably going to go through anyway. Meanwhile, reporting indicates PSVR2 is bombing in its first month on the market, which our eyes and ears were already telling us. Meanwhile, E3 is cancelled (probably forever) after the promise of a triumphant comeback, The Last of Us: Part I on PC wildly misses the Naughty Dog bar of quality, once-accused games writer Chris Avellone clears his name, and more news rounds our upside-down episode, dotted as always with listener inquiries. Your topics this week? The potential of animated PlayStation TV series and films, the best third-party publisher ever, a defense of day one DLC, and much more. Thanks to our sponsors!

In this episode , we go through this week's biggest gaming news which includes the effects of Counter Strike 2 , Chris Avellone's allegations , Xbox Game Pass , PS5 prices and much more

The last “respectable” video game journalist, Jason Schreier, admitted he knew about the sexual misconduct occurring at Blizzard years before it came to light. He claims he wanted to corroborate the allegations before reporting him, but that caution never stopped him from signal-boosting the paper-thin allegations against developer Chris Avellone. We discuss Schreier's hypocrisy and agenda-based reporting along with the latest in the Blizzard controversy, Ash Parrish leaving Kotaku, Destructoid saying a lot of nothing about gender in games, Mary Sue bullying a Twitter nobody over his benign opinions, and Susan Arendt buying a game based on nothing but its protagonist's appearance.

With Psychonauts 2 having an invincibility toggle, the debate about video game difficulty has resurfaced, with at least one games journalist proving how incompetent she is by saying she refuses to play on anything other than easy mode. Other topics covered this episode include the new lawsuit against Blizzard, updates on the Chris Avellone allegations, Kotaku embarrassing itself in more than a couple ways yet again, a game developer's very bizarre Twitter thread about making female characters look less feminine, and plenty more.

APÓYANOS en https://elbatallonpluto.com/mecenas "EBP 7x18 - El éxito de STEAM DECK, Netflix ya piensa en videojuegos, líos con BLOODLINES 2 y más" Muy pocos se podían imaginar que Valve, la compañía tras la plataforma de juegos más importante en PC que es Steam, anunciaría su propia consola portátil que promete llevar la experiencia del ordenador a la palma de la mano. Se llama Steam Deck y su lanzamiento a finales de año se ha convertido en todo un terremoto mediático colapsando la web de reservas. Y en cuanto a la presencia de nuevos agentes en la industria del videojuego, Netflix ya está contratando personal para presuntamente desarrollar sus propios juegos como parte del catálogo que actualmente ofrece a sus suscriptores. Este movimiento podría tener un gran impacto en el sector como aseguran determinados analistas. Por otro lado, ¿qué está ocurriendo con Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2? Tras varios retrasos y la sombra de la cancelación planeando sobre el proyecto, ha sido el diseñador Chris Avellone quien ha arrojado luz al respecto y los datos no son nada halagüeños. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>< A qué estamos jugando: Kingdom Hearts.

Witajcie serdecznie! Okrągły, trzydziesty odcinek to mało gier i dużo gadania wokół gamingowych tematów. Bartek do pierwszej części odcinka przywlekł A Plague Tale: Innocence, które wpadło do oferty PS+ w tym miesiącu oraz Wolny Wniosek na temat mechanik, które z ukrycia pomagają graczom. Za to ja przygotowałem listę newsów, do wypełnienia reszty odcinka - dużo, bo wiedziałem, że mało graliśmy, więc nawrzucałem tu, co popadnie :D Miłego słuchania! I. W CO GRALIŚMY?

Cancel culture is alive, well and growing and especially in the gaming industry. Two popular and celebrated figures in the development industry recently got cancelled for very different reasons, neither of which should have happened. I discuss these incidents and how this mob of perpetually (and often purposefully) outraged can't be allowed to continue this way.

TSR-U-KIDDING-ME: Tabletop Twitter got weird these last few weeks as debates exploded around the tweets made by Ernest G. Gygax, Jr.––son of Dungeons & Dragons co-creator, Gary Gygax––where he doubles down on strong, anti-SJW views in support of his new RPG, Giantlands. SLAPP FEST: Andrew also checks in with the current legal fight started by Chris Avellone––formerly of Black Isle and Obisidian Entertainment––as he tries to sue people who said mean things about him on the internet. Also, Dan has gotten even more obsessed with the Metroid series since last week. RELEVANT LINKS: A thread from Mike Dunford about the Chris Avellone defamation lawsuit. A thread from Daryl Mott that does a good job summarizing all the drama around the Gygax boys. A thread by attorney, D. M. Schmeyer, that covers the Avellone defamation lawsuit. RELEVANT EPISODES: "Pong 2020" (07 June 2019): Where D. Bethel and Andrew discuss the comments made by Chris Avellone about writing games "without" any politics in their narrative or design. "Zombie Brooms" (11 June 2021): Where Andrew covered the nature of lawsuits and their jurisdictions when talking about the copyright lawsuit filed by a photographer against Capcom. "Drive Your Gorilla" (25 June 2021): Where D. Bethel's excitement for Metroid gets reignited.

This past week, video game developer Chris Avellone broke his silence on sexual misconduct allegations leveled against him a year ago. Forbes writer Erik Kain was the first to report on this newsworthy event, and for his troubles, video game journalists trashed him. This wasn't the only heat Kain faced this week; he also garnered attention for criticizing The Gamer's awful take on a press event. We discuss these happenings, plus Patricia Hernandez's confusing goals for the future of Kotaku, the failed cancelation of a Factorio developer, and Polygon's hilarious attempts to retrofit homosexual themes to The Lord of the Rings.

Un Outcast Weekly all'insegna dell'allegria, con Alessandro De Luca e Andrea Peduzzi che aprono commentando la morte di Near (00:43). Poi si passa alle vicende legate alle accuse ricevute da Chris Avellone (18:05). Quindi, per alleggerire i toni, si passa al sempreverde tema “Adattamenti da videogioco a cinema/TV” (28:04). Poi un'altra botta di allegria con la rappresentazione LGBTQ+ in Apex Legends (36:08). Infine, l'inevitabile chiacchiera su Sony che acquisisce Housemarque e forse Bluepoint (53:00). Ma c'è anche il momento giuochi giuocati, con Delu che si esprime su Last Epoch (01:07:20) e Andrea Maderna che subentra per parlarci di Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX (01:15:22).Buon ascolto!Soundtraccia: Outcast Weekly - Alessandro Mucchi

Chris Avellone, writer of game series entries like Fallout, Star Wars, and Dying Light 2, has brought a defamation action in California for libel on its face (per se), in response to accusations made against him. But bringing a defamation claim is fraught with risks, from being forced to pay your opponent's attorney's fees to potentially winding up with an official document expressing its belief in the veracity of the statements made against you, and that risk is made even more tangible if the plaintiff is remotely famous. This suit is no different. So let's dive in. For the record, I'm only a public figure...in Virtual Legality.

In this episode of the podcast, hosts Kiley and Pete talk news stories from the past couple of weeks. Usually this close to the end of E3, the news would slow down, but you would be wrong, as the stories came thick and fast. Were the stories good one?

A BAD IDEA AGAIN: More than a decade after Konami cancelled its controversial tactical military first-person shooter, Six Days in Fallujah, the game seems to have been revived by Highwire Games who have taken to the media asserting that they want to tell––with their tactical military FPS––a nuanced, thoughtful, and impactful story of the incident. This news caused D. Bethel and Andrew to wonder if certain stories are simply better suited for certain genres of games? RELEVANT LINKS: Hall, Charlie.

Jako, że mam ostatnio blokadę twórczą [Maciej, dop. Maciej], postanowiłem z nią nie walczyć. Skorzystałem za to ze znanej mi, i koniec końców skutecznej, metody na przełamanie się i napisanie dla was czegoś ciekawego. Chciałbym dzisiaj pochwalić się wam swoją historią, jak to Maciej chciał projektować gry wideo. A jak zapewne część z was wie, na studiach chciałem zostać game designerem. Ale ostatecznie wylądowałem na programistycznej części bloku tworzenia giereczek. Co zaowocowało tym, że obecnie ani gier nie tworze, ani nie projektuje. Ale ja nie o tym. Kiedy miałem jeszcze ambicje być kulturoznawcą z krwi i kości (możecie się podśmiechiwać, bo mało perspektywiczny zawód, ale najmądrzejszych ludzi, jakich dane mi był spotkać w dotychczasowym życiu, było kulturoznawcami właśnie) udzielam się w wielu kołach naukowych na uczelni. Dzięki temu miałem okazje poznać masę ciekawych ludzi i projektować aż trzy pozycje, z których jedna ukazała się w grywalnej wersji alfa, jedna nie wyszła z fazy konceptów, a jedna okazała się być porażką z mojej winy. I ja o tej ostatniej chciałem wam opowiedzieć. Kiedyś ze znajomymi podjęliśmy decyzję, że rzucamy wszystko na jedną szalę i piszemy grę. Spotkaliśmy się w, jeśli dobrze pamiętam, osiem osób przy złocistym trunku (głównie zielonej herbacie :P). Wszyscy niedoświadczeni programiści z marzeniami i wielkimi oczekiwaniami od świata. Przewodził całym przedsięwzięciem R. (jeśli to czytasz, przepraszam). Ze wszystkich pomysłów rzuconych ulepił zarys gry, poskładał wszystko do kupy i dzięki temu wykrystalizował się turowy survival horror (miał nawet nazwę, ale ze względu na to, że może ktoś kiedy będzie chciał do gry wrócić, nie mogę jej podać). Zaczęliśmy tworzyć design doca. Programiści zaczęli pisać pierwszy kod. Pamiętam, że pomysł był, oczywiście jak w każdym młodym „niedoszłym” studiu developerkism, na stworzenie swojego własnego silnika gry. Ma to swoje oczywiste zalety (kontrola nad kodem i wydajnością), ale w ostatecznym rozrachunku wad jest więcej. Wystarczy jeden źle zaprojektowany element, jeden wzorzec programowania źle użyty i nagle okazuje się, że połowa kodu jest do przepisania. A to zjada czas i ewentualne zasoby pieniężne, których oczywiście nie mieliśmy. Bo i skąd? Byliśmy zwykłymi studentami z marzeniami, ledwo wiążący koniec z końcem. Podkreślę też, że to były czasy, w których można było zapomnieć o darmowej licencji na choćby Unreal Engine (który przy okazji trzeba było wiedzieć, jak obsługiwać) Z tego względu R. zaczął rozglądać się za dodatkami unijnymi, może jakimś małym biurem. Po drodze znaleźliśmy graficzkę, która zaczęła tworzyć dla na koncepty świata i postaci. Wszystko nabierało tempa. Tylko nie nasz nieszczęsny design doc. Spotykałem się z R. i w bólach dodawaliśmy kolejne linijki opisów. Część osób z zespołu, w tym ja, studiowało i pracowało jednocześnie. Mnie nie przychodziło łatwo godzić obowiązki uczelnianie z firmowymi. Nie mówiąc o tym, że zdarzyło mi się jednocześnie zakochać. Mój świat stanął do góry nogami. Musiałem wybierać. Albo kariera, albo marzenia. Wybrałem to pierwsze i jak możecie się domyślać, nie mam zielonego pojęcia czy wybrałem dobrze. Na pewno moje życie przestało być kompatybilne z projektem. Morale opadły, ludzie zaczęli się wykruszać. Relacje między naszą ekipą oziębły. Jednak rezygnacja z jednego projektu nie była tylko początkiem lawiny niszczącej studenckie wyobrażenia o tym, jakie to życie może być proste i fajne w obsłudze. Dzielenie pracy i czasu prywatnego z pasją i zajawkami, jakie miałem w tamtym czasie, okazały się być diabelnie trudne. Ale pouczające. Banalne stwierdzenie, że to kim jesteśmy obecnie jest wypadkową decyzji podjętych wcześniej, jest prawdziwe. Czy tego chcemy, czy nie. Dzielę się z wami tą historią bo potrzebuje katharsis. Mam trochę wyrzutów sumienia i masę melancholii. Kiedy patrzę na zgromadzone materiały to targają mną sprzeczne emocje. Z jednej strony to, co wymyśliliśmy, miało potencjał. Z drugiej było ważną lekcją, że nie każdy ma na tyle talentu, żeby tworzyć tak duży projekt ‘po godzinach’. Co innego z nagrywaniem podcastu ;) W dzisiejszym odcinku usłyszycie masę przykrych słów odnośnie giereczkowa. Szambo wybiło i mamy #metoo w świecie tworzenia gier wideo. Skandale, afery i wszystko co najgorsze w wykonaniu, niestety, znanych i lubianych twórców. Przykro. Ale na osłodę opowiadam o całkiem fajnych furryskach na Netflixie, czyli „BNA”, a Piotr śmieje się z „Zagubionej Kuli”. Bawmy! UWAGA, sypiemy SPOILER'AMI na lewo i prawo. Nie ma taryfy ulgowej!

PEOPLE ARE STILL TERRIBLE: The last few weeks have been heavy with news of important people in the various nerd industries––video games, tabletop, comics, etc.––getting called out as sexual predators who, for years, were protected by the companies they worked for.

In this week's episode we welcome Chris Avellone to our show to help create this unique third person action adventure. [Recorded 12/18/19]

You know Chris Avellone as the writer for classic RPGs and action games like Jedi: Fallen Order, KOTOR 2, Pillars of Eternity, Divinity: Original Sin 2, Fallout New Vegas, and dozens more. We dive into what makes Star Wars lore so special, and what makes it resonate across three trilogies and countless spinoffs. We also go in-depth with what it's like to be a freelance writer, not in games media, but in game development, and how he navigates those less stable waters. We also touch on why D&D and other fantasy realms are such rich tapestries for storytelling. If you love chatter about the art of writing in games, you can't ask for a better guest than Chris.

In this episode which is from my last show "Gameology Conversations" I speak with the great Chris Avellone writer of Star Wars: The Knights of the Old Republic, Fallout New Vegas, Dying Light 2 and many more games.

MISTER, I'LL MAKE AN EPIC OUT OF YOU: Andrew and D. Bethel briefly touch upon the interesting and promising live-action adaptation of the animated Disney classic, Mulan, even though this seems to be making considerable changes from the animated source material (seemingly to be more in-line with the folkloric source material). Here's the Twitter thread that Andrew mentioned, starting here with this tweet by Jenn Ravenna. OBLIVIOUS OBSIDIAN: After Chris Avellone's controversial interview where he makes argument about political content in video games, a former coworker of his at Obsidian––Leonard Boyarski––steps into the trap when discussing the politics of the upcoming Obsidian RPG, Outer Worlds, in an interview with PC Gamer. Andrew and Dan try to parse the differences with Avellone's comments and why this is such an issue (still).

APOLITICAL APOCALYPSE: A recent article at VG247.com interviewed (as part of the piece) games designer and writer, Chris Avellone––writer/designer of games such as Fallout 2, Fallout: New Vegas, and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II–––who argued not only that his writing was without any political inspiration nor had any political agenda (small "p"), but that he "[didn't] condone developers who [wanted] to do political games or make a statement" (McKeand). In fairness, the quote has since been edited by VG247.com, replacing "condone" with "condemn", softening Avellone's criticism a little bit, stating that Avellone wrote "doesn't condone" accidentally and his actual sentiment is more clearly presented with the correction. Still, this makes us think––are games (or any text in popular culture) apolitical, or can they be? Andrew and D. Bethel investigate how this is a problem. RELEVANT LINKS:  McKeand, Kirk.

Codename: Van Buren. This cancelled video game was what Fallout 3 would have been. But did you know that the design team made a pen and paper RPG to test? Chris Avellone takes over the Gamer’s Tavern thanks to our generous Kickstarter backers in order to tell us all about the history of the development of the Fallout 3 that never happened and the unpublished pen and paper RPG they used in development. Listen to this episode and you have a chance to WIN the original pen and paper Van Buren RPG files from Chris Avellone! Chris wanted us to add the following to the show notes: Fun fact from Van Buren: Elijah (the villain in Fallout: New Vegas: Dead Money) was supposed to be one of the companions in the first iteration of Fallout: Van Buren (along with Sulik’s sister, who ironically enough, was a slaver). Elijah was a genius-level BoS member who deserted the organization, which was becoming increasing xenophobic due to faction politics, rigid adherence to tech over community, and continual, dangerous use of Stealth Boy tech despite numerous warning signs. Like the Nightkin, the Stealth Boy was beginning to fray some BoS personalities, causing paranoia and psychosis. Overall, Elijah felt the BoS had been poisoned by wrapping itself within a tech shell. (Veronica did not exist.) Elijah was also a bit more physically fit than his Dead Money counterpart and was skilled in not just high-tech weapons, but also had trained himself extensively in bows, spears, and more “old school” weapons that many BoS members disdained as being “tribal.” Before Elijah deserted, however, he sabotaged the BoS Power Armor so they could do no more aggression/harm to other communities in the wastes, including NCR (and he sabotaged their armor as a lesson – who are you without these shells that distance you from the world). After this, he went to live with the Cipher tribals. One of the arcs of the game is to convince him to resurrect the Power Armor so the BoS isn’t wiped out (or activate it for a new group of BoS, including the player), or follow the Ciphers, who understand tech better than the BoS due (they worship schematics of the old world).
