On this week's episode, Nathan and Chris are joined by Tyler Colp of PC Gamer to discuss an extremely pressing business matter: Chris wrote almost 9,000 words about his favorite FromSoftware farming spots, and somehow, he still has more to say about them. Tyler, a fellow FromSoft sicko, happily indulges him. We discuss all sorts of obscure nooks and crannies in games like Dark Souls and Elden Ring, as well as larger topics like Sekiro's (perhaps unearned) status as the studio's dark horse. And of course, we spend plenty of time talking about Bloodborne's legendary Cum Dungeon.Credits- Hosts: Nathan Grayson, Chris Person, & special guest Tyler Colp- Podcast Production & Ads: Multitude- Subscribe to Aftermath!About The ShowAftermath Hours is the flagship podcast of Aftermath, a worker-owned, subscription-based website covering video games, the internet, and everything that comes after from journalists who previously worked at Kotaku, Vice, and The Washington Post.

¡Que pasa locos!Vaya semanita de funerales corporativos, despidos masivos y decisiones de mierda. Menos mal que nuestro CEO ha vuelto a poner orden y Joakin de sus vacaciones ZEN en Ibiza.Por un lado, Sony jubila el formato físico para 2028. Una tragedia histórica que tiene a Marco y Gringo llorando desconsoladamente sobre sus carátulas de plástico (asumiendo que en digital no poseemos absolutamente nada y sentenciando a Game a la quiebra), mientras Joakin celebra el apagón digital por todo lo alto, tachándolos de materialistas sin neuronas. ¿Será la legislación europea nuestro último clavo ardiendo?Por el otro, Xbox despide a casi 5000 personas para purgar su burocracia de catorce capas de directivos. Con pérdidas de 64 centavos por cada dólar invertido, Joakin tiene la solución de choque: prohibir la innovación, contratar a Miyazaki y obligar a todos a programar clones de Dark Souls con buena historia. De postre, analizamos el salseo de David Jaffe mandando a paseo a Alexelcapo.En los análisis, Gringo y Marco ponen nota al decepcionante 007 (con Marco abandonándolo por aburrimiento y Gringo empeñado en terminarlo por orgullo). Además, Marco nos habla de Mina: The Hollower, indie que tiene prácticamente terminado (para variar) tras recurrir a mods de accesibilidad para suavizar su enferma dificultad.¡Esperemos que os guste!⏱️ MARCAS DE TIEMPO REALES00:00 - ¡Que pasa locos!

Reports are swirling that Double Fine, Ninja Theory, and Compulsion Games are being cut at Xbox. Are they the right studios to shut down? A PlayView for Dark Souls extraction RPG Mistfall Hunter! Plus, is Call of Duty headed for Xbox exclusivity?

Deze aflevering van Gamekings Daily is ook te bekijken op https://youtu.be/MN6jWTSmiPs Deze editie van GK Daily was opgenomen voordat de eerste berichten naar buiten kwamen dat XBOX mogelijk studio’s als Compulsion, Arkane en Ninja Theory wilde sluiten of afstoten. Welkom bij Gamekings Daily. De gaming vodcast waarin twee hosts van Gamekings kwebbelen over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld der videogames. We zijn aangekomen bij de dinsdag en het is opnieuw Jasper die plaats heeft genomen achter de desk. De twee praten over het interview met de grote baas van From Software, Hidetaka Miyazaki. Waar de aandeelhouders schreeuwen om commerciële inkoppers als Bloodborne 2 en een nieuwe Dark Souls, wil de even eigenwijze als briljante Japanner zich liever focussen op het maken van originele, nieuwe IP's. Wat denkt Jasper daarvan, fan als hij is van de laatste games van From Software? Heeft Miyazaki gelijk of moet hij niet moeilijk doen en de fans gewoon geven wat ze graag willen? En dat is bijvoorbeeld een vervolg op Bloodborne. Dit en andere onderwerpen zie en hoor je voorbij komen in de Gamekings Daily van dinsdag 16 juni 2026. From Software wil geen gemakzuchtige sequels maken Jasper en JJ praten in deze editie ook over de productiekosten van Gears of War E-Day. De game die op 6 oktober uitkomt, gaat XBOX een slordige 400 miljoen dollar kosten. Hoe kan dat en is het spel dat bedrag wel waard? Ze spreken ook over de aankondiging van Spyro: A Realm Beyond. Een nieuw avontuur met het vrolijke draakje komt eraan, omdat de community er zo vocaal om vroeg. Hoe kijken de beide heren tegen deze aankondiging aan en vinden ze dat meer uitgevers dit zouden moeten doen? Voor welke game zouden zij hard willen schreeuwen? Je krijgt het antwoord in deze video. Werkt Xbox aan een MMO in het Halo universum? Xbox wil mogelijk de grote IP's wat meer naar voren gaan brengen. Halo hoort daar natuurlijk bij. Er gaat het gerucht dat Xbox al een jaar of twee in het geheim puzzelt aan een MMO in het Halo universum. Zien de heren wat in dit idee of heeft het weinig kans van slagen?

The developers of Shovel Knight are, at long last, back with a new game—and despite the long wait, it's absolutely fantastic. Mina the Hollower is a love letter to topdown games like Zelda, mixed in with elements of Castlevania, Dark Souls, and many others. It's also had a long journey towards release, which was a topic of conversation during a recent chat Patrick had with Yacht Club Games' founder and director Sean Velasco and programmer David D'Angelo.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Every Soulsborne fan has an answer.Some say Dark Souls has the best world. Some say Bloodborne has the best atmosphere. Some say Elden Ring is the best overall package. And somewhere out there, a Dark Souls II defender is already preparing a full argument.In Episode 98 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee dive into one of gaming's most passionate debates: which Soulsborne game is actually the best?We go from Demon's Souls to Dark Souls, Dark Souls II, Dark Souls III, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring, breaking down what each game does best and why fans still argue about them years later.This episode covers the blueprint that started it all, the world design that changed gaming, the most divisive entry in the series, the polished finale, the gothic nightmare fans still beg to see remastered, and the open-world giant that brought Soulsborne to the mainstream.We also talk about what really matters in these games: bosses, builds, lore, world design, atmosphere, combat feel, replayability, and that unforgettable moment when the game finally clicks.So what deserves the crown?Is it Bloodborne for the vibe? Dark Souls for the world? Dark Souls III for the bosses? Or Elden Ring for the full package?Let the debate begin.Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhereSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we continue our series on 1997's Dungeon Keeper. We talk about its tone again, and delve into a number of design topics including interface choices, verbs, and level design. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Three more levels-ish Issues covered: tonal neutrality vs tonal specificity, constructing a fantasy world, having a clear identity, villainous UI choices, white standing out, a subtle tiling system, feeling like increasing a hoard, increasing the verb space through direct interaction, picking and dropping things to direct them, units you're not meant to care about, camera choices, shortcuts to get around, preferring the zoom level as it was, the magical moment of possessing a creature, more RTS than expected, the early RTS curve repeating itself, not wanting to lose the builder choices, having to research all the rooms again, needing canvas space to paint, not knowing when units change over to you, finding idols and small rooms, economic victory, pincer moves, having the multiplayer options with the meta, power-up timing loops, starting with multiplayer first, how we have time for all this, trading off time with other games or hobbies, Tim the baby designer.  Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Civilization, Sid Meier, SimCity, Will Wright, Firaxis, Maxis, Populous, Lionhead, The Movies, Peter Molyneux, Black and White, StarCraft, Homeworld, Blizzard, Dragon Quest Builders, Minecraft, Thomas Pynchon, id Software, Doom 2, Quake (series), Halo, Unreal Tournament, Ben, Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Saros, Hollow Knight, Valheim, Diablo (series), Mortimer and the Riddles of the Medallion, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Next time: More Dungeon Keeper!

Send us Fan MailYou know the map, the mechanics, even the twist and still you hit “New Game.” So why do we keep replaying the same games? Anthony breaks down the psychology behind it and why it feels so satisfying, soothing, and sometimes irresistible.We explore four key reasons: comfort gaming that reduces stress and gives a sense of control, the pursuit of mastery in challenging games, the appeal of meaningful choices through branching stories, and the power of nostalgia tied to specific moments in life. Along the way, we reference games like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Dark Souls, Hades, and Minecraft.The takeaway is simple: replaying isn't always about something new, it's about getting what you need, whether that's calm, competence, curiosity, or connection. If you've ever reinstalled a game for the tenth time, this episode will help you understand why.Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbASupport the show

Spieleveteranen-Episode #441 (16-2026) Besetzung: Heinrich Lenhardt und Jörg Langer Aufnahmedatum: 08.04.2026 Laufzeit: 1:43:54 Stunden (0:00:15 News & Smalltalk – 0:33:43 Zeitschriften-Zeitreise) Wenn die Spieleveteranen mit der Zeitmaschine vorfahren, ist euch klar: Es geht wieder Jahrzehnt um Jahrzehnt zurück in die Vergangenheit, um zu ergründen, was die Redaktionen der Spielemagazine dereinst bewegt hat. Passenderweise finden sich diesmal schon bei den News und den jüngsten Spielerlebnissen allerlei Verbindungen zu Hardware aus früheren Tagen. Nachdem auch die Hörerpost bearbeitet wurde, geht die Reise los. Vor 10 Jahren begegnet uns ein bis heute stetig gepflegtes Indie-Gewächs, schon ganze 20 Jahre ist das vorletzte Solo-Abenteuer auf dem Kontinent Tamriel her, und vor 30 Jahren regnete es reichlich Wertungssternchen für eine grandiose Strategiespiel-Fortsetzung. Für die Patreon-Unterstützer schalten die Veteranen im Bonussegment in den Overdrive: Vor 40 Jahren bei der Happy-Computer angekommen, erwartet einen der beiden eine inquisitorische Befragung bezüglich eines gewissen Rollenspiel-Meilensteins. Unterstützt die Spieleveteranen und hört das volle Programm: https://www.patreon.com/spieleveteranen 00:15 News & Smalltalk 01:48 Gemischte News: Impossible Mission 3 erscheint bald für C64, ZX Football Manager Revisited bringt die Fußball-WM auf den Spectrum, Frédérick Raynal kickstartet ein Mega-Drive-Spiel mit Spezialcontroller, das neue Evercade-Handheld Nexus kommt im Oktober 2026, die von GOG optimierten Originalversionen von Resident Evil 1-3 landen auf Steam. 16:07 Zuletzt gespielt: Virtual Boy: Nintendo Classics, People of Note, Tomodachi Life (Demo). 29:31 Hörerpost von Toandoi und Araukaria. 33:43 Zeitschriften-Zeitreise: April 2016, 2006, 1996 34:19 GamersGlobal und GameStar 5/2016, u.a. mit Stardew Valley, Dark Souls 3 und Star Fox Zero. 53:18 GameStar 5/2006, u.a. mit The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Spellforce 2 und The Godfather. 1:09:05 PC Player 5/1996, u.a. mit Civilization II, Fantasy General und Zork: Nemesis. 1:41:28 Abspann.

This week, Zak and Aaron are back to check in on Marathon, the latest title from Bungie and the latest shot by Sony to make a splash in the wildly oversaturated live service market. Rather than being an unmitigated disaster on the level of Concord or even Highguard, or a runaway success like Arc Raiders, Marathon is something of an in-bounds outlier - performance is perfectly middle-of-the-road.It's reviewing well, but player numbers are certainly soft for a game that was meant to finally make good on both Sony's $3.7 billion purchase of Bungie and  its wider live-service ambitions. So, what comes next?Please, enjoy.Sources:Marathon has sold 1.2M copies across Steam, PS5, and Xbox - Alinea InsightsMarathon Was Bungie's Last Hope - Bellular News'Things Are Looking Lukewarm Right Now' — Marathon Has Reportedly Sold Just 1.2 Million So Far, With Steam Making Up 70% of the Player Base - IGNSony Has Completed Its $3.7 Billion Deal to Acquire Bungie and Welcome It Into the PlayStation Family - IGNSony Says Bungie Hasn't Brought in as Much Money as It Thought It Would When It Bought the Developer, as Destiny 2 Falls Off a Cliff - IGNListen to Beach Girl on SpotifyCheck Out MosscatMarket on Instagram

Worum geht's? Mit King's Field erscheint 1994 auf der ersten PlayStation ein Rollenspiel, das sich deutlich von den damals populären Genrevertretern unterscheidet. Statt schneller Action setzt das Spiel auf langsame Bewegung, vorsichtige Erkundung und eine düstere Atmosphäre. Aus der Ego-Perspektive durchstreift man ein Labyrinth aus Höhlen, Ruinen und Verliesen, kämpft gegen Monster und sucht nach Ausrüstung – Schritt für Schritt, immer in Gefahr, sich zu verlaufen oder zu überschätzen. Die spartanische Präsentation, die träge Steuerung und die stille Welt verleihen dem Spiel einen ganz eigenen Rhythmus. Fabian und Gunnar sprechen in dieser Folge über die frühen Jahre von FromSoftware, über die ungewöhnliche Entwicklungsgeschichte von King's Field und über die Besonderheiten seines Designs: die offene Struktur der Spielwelt, das vorsichtige Kampfsystem und die Art, wie das Spiel Informationen nur sparsam preisgibt. Außerdem geht es um die Einflüsse westlicher Rollenspiele, um die Rolle des Spiels im frühen PlayStation-Line-up – und um die Frage, warum King's Field heute oft als ein früher Vorläufer der späteren FromSoftware-Tradition rund um die Soulslikes gesehen wird. Ein Blick auf einen eigenwilligen Dungeon-Crawler aus der Frühzeit der 3D-Rollenspiele. Hinweis: Wir leiten die Historie über den ersten Teil von 1994 her, der exklusiv in Japan erschienen ist, bei der Spielbesprechung stützen wir uns allerdings auf Teil 2, den ersten, der offiziell in den Westen kam (und der hierzulande auch einfach King's Field hieß). Infos zum Spiel: Thema: King's Field Erscheinungstermin: Dezember 1994 (JP) Plattform: PlayStation Entwickler: FromSoftware Publisher: FromSoftware Genre: Action-Rollenspiel / Dungeon-Crawler Designer: Naotoshi Zin, Toshiya Kimura, Shinichiro Nishida u.a.
