Can you believe it has been 12 years since the release of Dragon's Dogma?! As we finally delve into Dragon's Dogma II, one of our most anticipated games of the year, we revel in just how impressive it is despite the formula having changed very little. To Brad's point, the game hasn't changed much but WE have changed a lot in those 12 years. In this episode we also take some time to check in on our Community Fantasy Critic Leagues now that we are a quarter of the way through the year and Chris Davis gives us an overview of the first Judas preview coverage that is rolling out this week. Also, if you were waiting for Nick to play Alone in the Dark... get ready... because he didn't; Chris Davis did... Twice.

Last week we were in Boston visting Ghost Story Games where we got to play 5 hours of Judas, followed by a deep-dive interview with legendary creator Ken Levine, whose previous works include Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite. This is not a 'preview' - this is a 'pre-preview', in that the game is still very much in development. Our conversation is focused on what Judas is, why it is the way that it is and what Levine and his team are aiming for as they continue development. While we were invited by Ghost Story Games and publisher Take Two Interactive, we paid our own accommodation and airfare costs so as to ensure our editorial independence. Timestamps:00:00 Intro and Impressions32:19 Raycon (ad)34:28 AG1 (ad)36:37 Interview with Ken Levine of Ghost Story Games02:22:40 Wrap Up- Jake Baldino (aka the Before You Buy Guy) is pretty much the most watched reviewer on YouTube across both Gameranx and his personal channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/JakeBaldino). If you're obsessed with Delorians, The Mummy and Pizza you can discuss that stuff with him directly over on Twitter: @JakeBaldino- Lucy James is a Senior Producer at Gamespot and a Creative Producer at Giant Bomb. She's actually, like, experienced and credentialed and has real life skills and stuff, while the rest of the gang would be funemployed if the YT algorithm didn't kiss them for random, inexplicable reasons. - Skill Up used to work at McDonalds but he got fired for skimming too many chicken nuggets. He says he regrets it since he hasn't had a better job since. --Listen to the Friends Per Second Podcast on your favourite podcast platform: https://linktr.ee/friendspersecondFollow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheFPSPodcastFollow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/friendspersecond

This week Travis joins the podcast to talk about his hotly anticipated game Warhammer 40k Darktide. This is the next game after Vermintide 2 which Austin and Travis played a ton. Is it better than the previous game or does it miss the mark? We also jump into the incredibly wild, but insanely fun Goat Simulator 3. This is a wild ride and we can't wait to tell you all about it.We take a look at the Forspoken Demo that released after The Game Awards. Brett has been excited about this game and unfortunately the world and menu design leaves something to be desired. Will it be a game worth getting next month or not? Hogwarts Legacy revealed some new details around their open world as well as more combat and the Room of Requirement. This game is looking better than ever from broom flying to customization in the Room of Requirement. This game has a lot, but it's looking incredible! Finally, we close with The Game Awards reactions. There was a ton of announcements from this awards show and it may be one of the best we've ever seen. From Armored Core 6 to Star Wars Jedi Survivor, there's a lot to be hyped about this event and we cover all of the highlights.Show Notes:1:03 - Housekeeping2:59 - Warhammer 40k Darktide Review 46:09 - Forspoken is a Beautiful Game, But Something is Missing1:05:59 - Goat Simulator 31:18:31- Hogwarts Legacy: The Open World is Real!1:39:27 - The Game Awards Reveal Reactions2:19:18 - End of Year Wrap UpBecome a part of the conversation!

Wat er precies gebeurt achter de schermen bij vele videogame studio's, zullen we waarschijnlijk nooit weten. Wanneer camera's of microfoons komen om een documentaire te draaien, gedragen mensen zich anders en ontwikkelaars die vrijuit spreken doen dat pas na een paar jaar door contractclausules of doen het anoniem. Hoe dan ook, de kleine momenten dat we naar de werking van studio's kunnen kijken kan heel interessant zijn, maar levert vaak verhalen van frustraties op. Deze week zijn dat de werkingen rondom Sony Bend, de studio achter Days Gone en Ghost Story Games, de ontwikkelstudio van Ken Levine, de creatieve geest achter Bioshock. Daarnaast duiken Jim en Jeroen in videogame series. Is de aankondiging van een Fallout serie naar Amazon Prime Video iets om tof te vinden of moeten we met een skeptisch oog kijken naar dit soort uitstapjes? Verder onthult PlayStation meer details over hun nieuwe virtual reality headset, is Naughty Dog bezig met meerdere titels, gaat Ubisoft het bed in met Game Pass, is er een recordaankoop gedaan en er is last minute een game uitgesteld!

- El desarrollo en Ghost Story Games, el estudio de Ken Levine, está siendo un infierno. Tras casi 8 años de desarrollo, el proyecto en el que trabajan no parece tener fin, y los métodos de Levine están minando la salud mental de los trabajadores. - Kojima quiere desdibujar las lineas que separan los distintos medios en uno de sus próximos proyectos. Así lo afirmaba en una entrevista para Famitsu, y es que ha pasado poco más de un mes desde que Kojima Productions anunciara la apertura de un nuevo estudio en Los Ángeles dedicado a cine, televisión y música. - El creador de DriveClub anunciará su próximo título en 2022. Paul Rustchynsky, que está trabajando actualmente Avalanche Studios , ha afirmado en Twitter que su siguiente juego no será de conducción, y que llevan trabajando en él desde 2021. - CyberConnect2 va a realizar un anuncio importante en febrero, según su presidente y director ejecutivo, Hiroshi Matsuyama. La traducción que proporciona Gematsu habla de que “será algo que sacudirá el mundo”. Por ahora, no tenemos más detalles. - Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, FIFA 22 y Animal Crossing: New Horizons encabezan el top ventas de Reino Unido. Domina claramente la Nintendo Switch y sube un puesto el Miles Morales, cosa que habla claramente de la falta de stock de unas consolas frente a la disponibilidad de otras.

Ghost Story games is working on something new for us. What could it be? I have high hopes from the director who brought us games such as Bioshock Infinite. Also, what really goes into the making of our video games? Blood, sweat, and games. Is the cost of ones sanity worth a game? Developers work in harsh conditions for our benefit. When does it go too far when it comes down to what we play? Some do it because they love it but you must also strike a balance with work life and personal life.

My guest today is Ken Levine, creative director and co-founder of Irrational and now Ghost Story Games, and the creative force behind some of the most iconic titles in video game history including System Shock 2, Thief and the Bioshock Series. We talk about the physical thrill of early mechanical games, his bad news bears-esque teenage deliquency - bumming smokes and playing arcades - his bumpy path into video game design via Hollywood and how the theatre prepared him for running a video game studio. We talk about why the original Castle Wolfenstein was so stressful, how obscure gem Herzog Zwei should get way more credit, why Rocksmith is one of the best games he's ever played and how the Legend of Zelda ruined a relationship. "We all make choices, but in the end our choices make us."

Ken Levine, director of Bioshock, Bioshock Infinite, Sytem Shock 2, and both Freedom Force games sits down to talk about writing in video games, directing, and his roll as creative director. Yeah, we have no idea why he came on the show either. No one's more surprised than we are, but it was a great time and a genuinely interesting conversation. Ken Levine is the Creative Director as Ghost Story Games and you can find him on Twitter @Levine. I went the whole episode without calling him Kevin 'Lah Vine'.
Lesezeit: < 1 Minute Der März ist vorbei, der April ist da! Und was war das für ein aufregender Monat. Meine Güte! Erstklassige neue Spiele und mit der Switch kam auch gleich eine neue Daddelkiste auf den Markt. Versteht sich ja von selbst, dass wir über Nintendos neue Konsole, ihren Verkaufsstart und ihre Marktchancen sprechen. Vor allem im Hinblick auf die Dominanz der PS4 und der drohenden Xbox Scorpio. Abseits dieses Themenblocks sprechen wir über JonTrons rassistische Äußerungen und die Folgen, stellen uns der Frage, was mit der Xbox One los ist und reden über die Factor 5-Neugründung, Ken Levine und Ghost Story Games und über Erik Wolpaw und seinen Weggang bei Valve. The post IKYG-Podcast: Folge 209 – Jetzt wird’s politisch! appeared first on I KNOW YOUR GAME (IKYG).

On the Competitive Corner, we talk upcoming Overwatch changes, including the new hero Orisa, Dylan gushes about the best League of Legends match ever and people are already trying to speedrun Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

This week LGC tries once again to avoid talking too much about Zelda, Overwatch, and Destiny. Do they succeed, before diving into a history of games they've never finished? Topics: PreyDaniel tells us about the game that once was, and what to expect from the upcoming re-imagining Ghost Story Games The remnants of Irrational Games have formed a new studio and are working on a new IP Zelda preview embargo expiresFrank is losing his mind because everyone seems to love the new Zelda and they are gushing over how difficult and rewarding it is.

Andreas tells us a little about Mount and Blade: Warband NBA eSports squads Daniel discusses what the NBA is doing with eSports and how eSports in general are becoming more legitimate.

Topic of the week This week we discuss games we could not finish, for one reason or another.
