Motorslice fans please don't talk to me, please get away from me. It's time for the debut of Games Critic Nick as he gets surprisingly worked up about a bad, semi-horny semi-action game voiced by the lady you all know and love from Kramer Hentai Adventure 2.

《商业就是这样》正在策划常规的访谈类节目，我们希望与每个领域的专家，把“就事论事”这件事做到极致，本期就是我们的一次尝试。如今世界上的顶尖职业体育项目——足球、篮球、F1等等——往往都有了上百年的历史。对于这个行业的从业者来说，你可以投身、参与、改善这些赛事，但是很难从0开始创造一个赛事。而冯骁和他的同事可能是极少数有这种机会的人。冯骁是腾竞体育的副总裁，也是腾竞LPL（英雄联盟职业联赛）和VCT CN（无畏契约冠军巡回赛CN联赛）的总负责人。尤其是后者，是一项2024年开始的新电竞赛事，冯骁和同事们从头开始搭建了整个赛事的地基与框架。这让我们有了一个难得的视角，来窥探职业电竞赛事的商业模式。不过让我们意外的是，冯骁在聊天中反复强调对传统体育赛事的研究、学习和借鉴，在他看来，电竞赛事最有趣的地方，是能够更彻底地汲取已有巨人的经验，孵化一个完善的娱乐生态。感谢腾竞体育对本期节目的支持。注：本期节目提到的“瓦”，即为玩家对《无畏契约》（Valorant）的昵称。| 嘉宾 |冯骁 Eric，腾竞体育副总裁| 主播 |肖文杰、邢梦妮Molly| 时间轴 |04:11 最早电竞是厂商市场营销的一部分06:41 拳头游戏的赛事制作团队，大多参与过奥运会08:54 至今还记得2013年的上戏莲花路校区的季前赛09:54 从“乡村大舞台”起步13:56 “为什么我们的灯光让主播看上去皮肤很差”14:59 让屏幕迅速显示选手选择的英雄，这一件小事也不容易20:29 2017和2018是中国电竞的破圈时刻26:24 MOBA像足球，FPS像篮球29:23 用故事线的概念来理解一场体育赛事33:39 为什么加入腾竞体育36:35 一个体育迷，像盖楼一样做电竞联盟和职业赛事41:58 “我们甚至要给电竞选手上课”46:35 什么样的赛制？多少战队？要不要升降级？53:08 巡回制的灵感来自于F159:17 地方对电竞赛事有多支持？70:50 十几年对于一个体育赛事来说还是萌芽期75:56 星是造不出来的80:32 “你希望你的小孩以后搜你的名字，出来的是什么样的新闻”| 后期制作 |刘大哭| 声音设计 |刘三菜| 收听方式 |你可以通过小宇宙、苹果播客、Spotify、喜马拉雅、网易云音乐、QQ音乐、荔枝、豆瓣等平台收听节目。| 认识我们 |微信公众号：第一财经YiMagazine联系我们：thatisbiz@yicai.com

Hey well we are getting a lot more lore this year, and that's sure something isn't it? This episode, we discuss two motion comics (For the Fallen and Requiem) as well as the release trailer for some new Pandemonium skins.

There was no such thing as a small town on a Forge World like Novus Jersey, but The Boss's hometown was as close as you could find. Still, between the massive factoriums and their choking clouds of black smoke, the sky was a rare sight, even on the least dense place on the planet. But on the rare moments where Buce "The Bross" Spingsteen saw past the smog, the stars beyond seemed endless. But today, the curtain of smoke was closed- a velvet shroud foreclosing the future. A shroud he'd pierce one day, and escape. Join the Bottle Crow Discord to check out our live posted show notes as well as chat with us and other listeners!

If you've ever talked yourself out of your own potential, dismissed your progress because it didn't look impressive enough, or just needed someone to remind you that hard days don't have to become hard lives, this episode is for you.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/sheri-arcuriaSheri Arcuria didn't set out to build a movement. She started with a blog, a body she was trying to save and a whole lot of stubbornness. On this episode of Even Tacos Fall Apart, she sat down to talk about what badassery actually looks like in real life... and it's not what most people think.Sheri is the author of two books, Unzipped and Blindsided, and the creator of MOBA (Master of Badassery), an apparel and community brand that has grown into something way bigger than t-shirts. But before any of that, she was a 32-year-old woman sitting in a doctor's office being told she would have diabetes for the rest of her life. The doctor handed her a stack of prescriptions. Sheri handed them back.What followed was six months of walking every day, cleaning up her diet and tracking everything. When she went back for her follow-up and every single marker had normalized, she was, in her words, "smug as shit." That moment cracked something open in her. It stopped being about a number on a scale and started being about what she was actually capable of.The first book came out of spite too, if we're being honest. Her husband finally called her out after years of her saying she should write about her bariatric surgery journey. She stormed into the office, sat down at a blank screen and didn't stop typing for five days straight. Wrist guards and all.But this conversation goes well beyond weight loss. Sheri talks about what it means to be a badass when you're dealing with chronic pain, anxiety or a life that looks nothing like you planned. Her take is straightforward: badassery is an attitude, not a destination. It's doing whatever is in front of you with purpose, even on the days when that thing is just getting out of bed and taking a shower. The goal posts move. The journey doesn't end. That's the whole point.She also gets into the emotional roots underneath physical struggles, the way we mow over our problems instead of pulling the weeds, the damage that comes from holding everything in until your body stages a full revolt and the very specific kind of freedom that comes from finally finding your voice in a relationship or a doctor's office or anywhere else you've been quietly swallowing things down.The MOBA community grew out of a TikTok live where people just wanted to plank together every morning. Now it's a Discord full of people cheering each other on through workouts, hard days and everything in between.Sheri is also a certified mindset coach and is finishing up certifications in personal training and nutrition. She takes DMs. She writes handwritten cards with every single order. She has not forgotten where she started.This one is worth your time.

What happens when a legendary horror franchise finds its footing by looking backward? This week, we dive into Resident Evil Requiem, exploring why its tight, 10-hour dual-protagonist campaign is a masterclass in modern survival horror—and a perfect fit for gamers with a busy schedule. We also strap on our hover-skates for a review of High on Life 2, discussing how Squanch Games is navigating its new era and whether the controversial new traversal mechanics help or hinder the "Big Pharma" satire. Then, we shift gears to the extraction shooter wars. We share our hands-on impressions from the Marathon Server Slam, questioning if Bungie's bold, neon-soaked UI is a work of art or a usability nightmare compared to the more grounded Arc Raiders. Finally, we trace the 8-year secret history of Valve's Deadlock—from its "Neon Prime" sci-fi roots to its current status as a Steam chart-topper—and explain why this MOBA-shooter hybrid is poised to dominate the industry in 2026.

Some might say with a name like "EternalEnvy" we should have anticipated ways in which he might become someone we didn't want to hitch our wagon to. That maybe him turning into a greedy and craven day trader was less of a transformation and more of a revealing one's true colors. We may never know the truth, especially because we're about to stop paying attention to him entirely. But whatever the case... we had good times with Jacky Mao. And now they're over.

The question nobody in the West wants to answer honestly: the biggest shooters in the world are not the ones you argue about on Twitter.This episode rips into Highguard's shadow drop, the “beta that isn't labeled beta” problem, and the stubborn reality that the shooter market has converged into two and only two genres: Battle Royale and tactical.We talk Highguard and Spectre Divide as case studies for why “ex-Apex devs” is marketing copy, not a strategy, and why in 2026 a shooter doesn't get a long runway to “fix it live.”Guest: Christopher Anjos, with Chris Sides and Feras Musmar.We discuss:- High Guard as a MOBA-raid shooter hybrid and why its best moments arrive only after five minutes of downtime.- Defense phase, resource phase, then the game finally becomes itself: mounts, CTF energy, base raiding.- Shadow drops vs. tech tests: why the Apex Legends playbook doesn't port cleanly into 2026.- “Early access” is just launch, and Steam labels don't save you from retention.- The 3v3 trap: high risk formats where one leaver or one death warps the whole match.- Why 3-person squads feel like a couple plus a third wheel, and when 3v3v3 or 5v5 might actually work.- The “two genres” thesis: Battle Royale and tactical shooters as the market's default equilibrium.- The creator-credit illusion: “ex-Red Dead lead designer” as a brand signal that often means nothing.- Players want auteur vibes; production reality is thousands of hands and fuzzy accountability.https://graygoatgaming.com/

I will never doubt Emma again. ...I will doubt Emma again. I wonder if she's ever had giardiniera. Do you think she's Chicagoan? Or Italian? I mean she sounds American, but, I can't narrow down more than that. I do feel Midwest, because the Midwest is generally a pretty neutral accent. And maybe I shouldn't be guessing at all- Emma doesn't want to be found. And I will respect that.

OR: White Fuge Balmore It would be a shame to waste a pretty fantastic title, so I put it there, even though the Thankful Episode doesn't get a specific title like that. Y'know, if you add a comma, it could be like... a rare spawn in Final Fantasy XI. "White Fuge, Balmore " should i play more FFXI? on the one hand, it was kinda impenetrable. but it was also kinda sick. but i don't have much free time. but the time i DO have i mostly waste, and i could probably squeeze in some Vanadiel. hmm Join the Bottle Crow Discord to check out our live posted show notes as well as chat with us and other listeners!

There are a lot of possibilities in League lore, and today we wanted to explore how some of these fights could pan out. What happens to Lissandra if Sejuani takes over? Can Darius handle Volibear? Can Miss Fortune redeem herself after The Rise of the Sentinels? (can anyone?) All this and more! ---------- WE HAVE MERCH!bit.ly/loreheadmerch Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1 Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads Song Title | Dragon Trainer TristanaArtist | League of LegendsCourtesy of Riot Games https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/community/riot-music-creator-safe-guidelines/Image by Yuri_B from Pixabay - book with sparkles Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

There are easy games, and games that are notoriously difficult to "get good" at. However, Moriarty raised this question to us...what is the hardest game (or genre) to become simply "okay" at? Also, how much can a trailer spoil before it's simply objectively spoiling too much?SHOW NOTESThe cicadas outside Chris' home make a cameo at around 15 minutes in.

Carl-Edwin Michel rencontre Alexandre Parizeau et Xavier Marquis autour du nouveau titre March of Giants, le premier projet du studio montréalais d'Amazon Games. Anciennement chez Ubisoft, ils dévoilent un MOBA stratégique en 4 contre 4 où les joueurs incarnent des géants au cœur de batailles épiques, entourés de milliers de soldats. En pleine phase d'alpha fermée, le jeu mise sur une jouabilité novatrice, des univers variés et un potentiel esport assumé.

Why is it that the Oreos are the ones in pieces? I thought Reese's had the pieces. Well, what can you do I suppose. You wanna know something funny? After that conversation about how neither of us really care about Hollow Knight Silksong, I was convinced (pretty easily) to give it another shot and I've turned around on it. Cool game. People losing their minds over it are still confusing to me, but the game's ok with me. It's in my best interest to make these show notes slightly different, for logistical reasons! Fun fact.

Although there's not much lore in this AU, there are a ton of champions. Well, there are a ton of heroes but not as many Muzak lovers, and we all agree that needs to change. There's much, dare we say, potential here? More skins, comics, a small game?

August the 13th be with you- and also with you. Y'know, we were supposed to talk about that new lil f- can I curse in here? I don't think I can, I think since this is on like iTunes and any kid could see it, I can't cuss in the description. Well the new lil GUY they added to Dota 2. And we completely forgot. And then I was gonna record a drop-in about it. And I completely forgot. And I'm remembering now but the edit is uploaded and it's almost 3am so you know? Sometimes you do a bad job.

You know what my favorite thing about Shurima is? I don't know. But it's not Azir. And thankfully, we didn't have to talk about him much in this episode! Truly, even the Wiki wasn't interested in that guy. Shurima is the largest region in Runeterra, so naturally, we rambled on for 90 minutes. It has a ton of history and champions not only from Shurima, but many who have connections there. Including the Black Rose. So maybe we'll get some new lore soon? -------- WE HAVE MERCH!bit.ly/loreheadmerch Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1 Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads Song Title | Dragon Trainer TristanaArtist | League of LegendsCourtesy of Riot Games https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/community/riot-music-creator-safe-guidelines/Image by Yuri_B from Pixabay - book with sparkles

We've gotten a lot of lore leading up to Yunara's official release, and now we're ready to talk about it in full. Although we're really enjoying the new lore delivery, for Yunara, we're a little confused on what's real and what's not. Do we know this mysterious person? Or this one? OR THIS ONE?! Everything is perhaps a little too mysterious. ----- WE HAVE MERCH!bit.ly/loreheadmerch Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1 Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads Song Title | Dragon Trainer TristanaArtist | League of LegendsCourtesy of Riot Games https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/community/riot-music-creator-safe-guidelines/Image by Yuri_B from Pixabay - book with sparkles

Robbie is a studio head with one of the most unusual origin stories in the games industry. A former content creator and streamer, he fell in love with Paragon, the ambitious MOBA from Epic Games—so much so that when Epic closed the game in 2018, he refused to let it die. With no prior game development experience and no plans to enter the industry, he founded Omeda Studios and set out to rebuild and evolve the game alongside its passionate community. The result was Predecessor, a fresh take on the MOBA genre. In just a few years, the game has developed a vibrant fanbase, while the studio has transformed from a grassroots effort into a serious player in the industry, proving that a community-driven approach can take on even the giants.Become a My Perfect Console supporter and receive a range of benefits at www.patreon.com/myperfectconsole Hosted on Acast.

We had already finished this recording when surprising news broke in the world of PlayStation: Sony has cancelled two of its upcoming, unannounced games. And -- would you believe it? -- they were both live service titles, including a God of War spin-off. The really unfortunate news, however, is who was making these titles: Bend and Bluepoint, two smaller AAA teams that typically work on a single project at a time, thus wasting years of development, as well as time and resources that can never be recovered. What in the world is going on with PlayStation Studios, and how did the person who helmed the first party family during such a tumultuous period of greenlights and plug-pulling ascend to the top of PlayStation itself? It's time to start asking some really hard questions. Other news this week includes substantial rumors of more Xbox content en route to PlayStation which, if true, will make Microsoft the single most-prolific producer of content for a platform that was once its arch-rival, but no longer. Also: Reactions to the first Until Dawn film trailer, a surprising end to Rocksteady's Suicide Squad game, accolades for an exceptional-looking upcoming vampire RPG called The Blood of Dawnwalker, tantalizing news about Bungie's in-development Smash Bros.-inspired MOBA, and more. We wrap up our episode (as we always do) with listener inquiries. Now that Nintendo's Switch 2 has been revealed, what are our preliminary thoughts? Is 2025 the year we finally give PSVR2 the respect it deserves? Why is it so hard to make swimming control well? Is it just a weird coincidence that SEGA renewed its Ecco the Dolphin trademark on September 11, 2001, or is there something deeper at play? This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
