From Killer Instinct to The Last of Us Part I, he's helped bring major games to life and now supports devs launching their own. We discuss putting in raunchy stuff, nemawashi and his magic deck of challenges - this week!Episode Highlights[00:00:00] "Shipping Will Burn You": Why Making Games Is the Best Teacher Adam kicks off with advice for aspiring devs: build, release, and learn from failure—because real growth comes from shipping games, not just dreaming them.[00:08:00] From Farm Town to QA: Adam's Unlikely Start at EA Sports Hear how Adam landed his first job in games testing NBA Live 97 and FIFA 98, despite growing up in rural Canada with dreams of working on NHL games.[00:15:00] Modding Roots and BBS Culture: The Birth of a Developer Adam shares how his love for PC modding and running a Jurassic Park–themed BBS shaped his curiosity and multi-discipline approach to game development.[00:27:00] The Wild Days at Midway: Slugfest, Blitz & Studio Chaos From canceled games to f-bomb-filled meetings, Adam reflects on Midway's raw, chaotic culture—and how it helped him grow as a producer and leader.[00:34:00] “Nemo Washi”: Building Consensus Like a Japanese Producer Adam explains the Japanese business concept of Nemo Washi, and how it shaped his leadership style—building trust, alignment, and resource sharing across teams.[00:44:00] Smashing Red Tape at PlayStation: Killing the Concept Submission Process At Sony, Adam eliminated outdated approval systems and championed indie access, unlocking millions in dev revenue and streamlining platform entry.[00:50:00] Iron Galaxy's Secret Sauce: Co-Development with the Best in the Biz Adam discusses co-developing Skyrim, Diablo III, The Last of Us Part I, and Fortnite—and how Iron Galaxy became one of the industry's most trusted studios.[00:56:00] Launching Vivrato: Solving the Game Industry's Hardest Problems Now at Vivrato, Adam's mission is to help devs at all levels—focusing on industry-wide challenges with a personalized, high-impact advisory approach.Thank you for listening to our podcast all about videogames and the amazing people who bring them to life!Hosted by Alexander Seropian and Aaron MarroquinFind us at www.thefourthcurtain.com Join our Patreon for early, ad-free episodes plus bonus content at https://patreon.com/FourthCurtain Come join the conversation at https://discord.gg/KWeGE4xHfeVideos available at https://www.youtube.com/@thefourthcurtainFollow us on Twitter: @fourthcurtainEdited and mastered at https://noise-floor.com Audio Editor: Bryen HensleyVideo Editor: Sarkis GrigorianProducer: Shanglan (May) LiArt: Paul RusselCommunity Manager: Doug ZartmanFeaturing Liberation by 505
Want to survive your first Warhammer Fantasy game without getting eaten by a goblin or arrested for fashion crimes? This episode teaches you the grimdark basics—judgy elves included. Big thanks to our sponsor, Dungeon Master Adamantine—the only GM who can run a perfect session and pronounce "Naggaroth" correctly on the first try. If you want to play D&D, Call of Cthulhu, Vampire: The Masquerade, or any other TTRPG—whether you're in Greece, online, or just chaos-curious—book your game at dungeonmasteradamantine.com or find him on StartPlaying. Show Notes: In this gloriously grimdark episode, the RPGBOT crew celebrates both personal victories and narrative tragedy—because nothing says Pride like running a half marathon and being emotionally wrecked by Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay lore. The crew dives deep into the richly depressing world of Warhammer Fantasy, from the human-centric politics of the Empire to the lizard-brained logic of the Slann. They explore the setting's clashing cultures, catastrophic corruption mechanics, and the unfortunate magical side effects of wearing the wrong outfit. Expect heated discussions on dwarf grudges, elf egos, undead management tips, and why your bright pink tunic might just get you killed during spellcasting. The conversation also gets tactical as they unpack dungeon design do's and don'ts, from the elegance of the Five Room Dungeon to the emotional trauma that is Tomb of Horrors. Spoiler alert: don't design your dungeon like a video game unless your players are part AI and emotionally numb. This episode is equal parts war-torn exposition and mechanics breakdown, with a healthy helping of sarcastic celebration. Key Takeaways: Pride is powerful. So is finishing a half marathon. So is a vampire count on a zombie dragon. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is what happens when early modern Europe and cosmic horror have a very messy divorce. The Empire: Best place to be human, worst place to not pay your taxes. Bretonnia: Where chivalry and classism come with matching banners. Kislev: Frostpunk with bears and chaos cultists. Dark Elves: If Hot Topic and human sacrifice had a baby. Warhammer Fantasy ≠ Warhammer 40K. This one has fewer space marines, more diseases. Elves are superior—just ask them. The Old World is “Europe but cursed.” The New World is “Colonialism but with dinosaurs.” Dwarves: Have grudges, will travel (underground). Lizardmen: Technically the good guys, if you like ancient prophecy and no interpersonal skills. Greenskins: Orcs, goblins, and the chaos-fueled frat party that never ends. Skaven: Backstabbing rat anarchists who somehow built a nuclear weapons program. Undead: Vampires rule the night; Tomb Kings rule the day (and resent the living). Chaos: The multiversal HR violation that unites us all. Your class and career determine your fate, like high school but with more mutations. Warhammer's magic system: Be fluent in death chants and fashion-forward or suffer the consequences. Psychology, fear, corruption, and disease aren't flavor—they're core mechanics. Color-coordination is literally rules-as-written. You can die for clashing. Spellcasting is hard. Miscasting is harder. Death by wardrobe malfunction is canon. Character progression is XP-based. Advancement is granular and glorious. Half-elves aren't a thing. Racial purity is, unfortunately, a cultural theme. Dungeon design should offer choices, not just punishment. Unless you're Tomb of Horrors. The Five Room Dungeon is a GM's best friend—tight, deadly, and endlessly adaptable. Don't copy video game dungeons. This isn't Skyrim and your players aren't NPCs. Listen now and learn why wearing a green sash while casting a red spell might kill you faster than a chaos spawn with an axe.

Kan Elder Scrolls Online stadig holde sig relevant i 2025?Elder Scrolls Online, eller ESO, blev oprindeligt udgivet i 2014 og har nu holdt sig i live i over 10 år med konstante opdateringer, nye zoner, dungeons og raids. Det er i sig selv en præstation, når man tænker på hvor hurtigt MMO-titler som Wildstar, Anthem og New World er bukket under. At sige at ESO har klaret sig godt ville være en underdrivelse.Selvom Elder Scrolls Online er en del af det ikoniske Elder Scrolls univers, hvor Skyrim stadig står som kronjuvelen, har ESO valgt sin egen vej. Både når det gælder combat, progression og world building.Men det store spørgsmål er jo om det stadig føles som Elder Scrolls, eller om det er blevet endnu en MMO-maskine fyldt med daglige logins, craftingsystemer og loot loops, som vi har set tusindvis af gange før. I denne episode deltager Nicolai Fog, Anders Isaksen og Daniel Møgelhøj.Tusind tak fordi du lytter med.
Shockingly not another release of Skyrim!When our duo takes a request, it typically comes along with a guest, and this episode is no exception. Enter Rick from Pixel Project Radio who has chosen the surprising remaster of the fourth entry in a series dedicated to some especially old and rolled up parchment. Co-developed by Bethesda Game Studios and Virtuos (who are quite familiar with tackling ports and remasters), this remaster takes a twenty year old action RPG and gives it a major facelift through the use of Unreal Engine 5. Can you believe that Chris never played the original? Did you know that Tom played his fair share, but never started the main quest? Well, thanks to our special guest, both of these tragic failings are about to be remedied. Let's find out if anyone regrets their past decisions as they lock in their final ones!Follow Rick on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/pixelprojectradio.bsky.socialPixel Project Radio's links: https://linktr.ee/pixelprojectradioWhat do you think?

Any Austin has carved a unique niche for himself on YouTube: analyzing seemingly mundane or otherwise overlooked details in video games with the seriousness of an art critic examining Renaissance sculptures. With millions of viewers hanging on his every word about fluvial flows in Breath of the Wild or unemployment rates in the towns of Skyrim, Austin has become what Tyler calls "the very best in the world at the hermeneutics of infrastructure within video games." But Austin's deeper mission is teaching us to think analytically about everything we encounter, and to replace gaming culture's obsession with technical specs and comparative analysis with a deeper aesthetic appreciation that asks simply: what are we looking at, and what does it reveal? Tyler and Austin explore the value of the YouTube algorithm, what he notices now about real-world infrastructure, whether he perceives glitches IRL, why AI-generated art is getting less interesting, how the value of historical context differs between artistic forms, an aesthetic abundance agenda for nuclear power, the trajectory of video game quality since the 80s, whether the pace of seminal game releases has slowed, the relative value of commentary to the games themselves, why virtual reality adds nothing meaningful to the gaming experience, what's wrong with most video game analysis, what to eat in New Orleans, Tyler's gaming history, and more.

Hey! You can watch this episode on YouTube! The Elder Scrolls battle begins! Skyrim and Oblivion are both critically acclaimed and fan favorites, but Skyrim tends to dominate the conversation. Is it Oblivion's time now? Maester Jason and Dune Daddy Abu face off to debate which game has a more immersive world, which role playing aspects are more impressive, and which game should sit atop the Elder Scrolls throne. Will Skyrim’s long running popularity be enough to convince our judges that it’s the better game? Or will the newly remastered Oblivion change our minds?

In 2017 zette Nintendo de wereld op z'n kop met een hybride charmeur die je overal mee naartoe kon nemen. Een console die de grens tussen handheld en home-gaming liet vervagen.

This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick find themselves waking up in the worst Airbnb in Tamriel—a damp prison cell with rats, bad lighting, and a suspicious lack of exit strategy. That's right, it's Oblivion Remastered, the shiny, modded, and lovingly overhauled return to Bethesda's iconic 2006 open-world RPG. As Emperor Uriel Septim shows up in their cell to tell them they're the chosen ones—because of course they are—the duo is thrust into a sprawling adventure across Cyrodiil filled with political intrigue, demonic invasions, and some of the jankiest NPC dialogue animations this side of the White-Gold Tower. Will Dave finally figure out how to level efficiently without accidentally making the world impossibly difficult? Can Nick resist the urge to Fus Ro Dah someone into a lake—even though, yes, that's Skyrim and no, it doesn't work here? And most importantly, how many times will they get derailed by side quests before remembering there's, you know, an actual Oblivion crisis happening? Hosted on Acast.

BEST OF TST: Google has been working with health companies to create databases of personal information - project Nightingale. DNA companies like 23andMe, run by ex wife of founder of Google, and sister of another founder, who runs Youtube, which is owned by Google, gather up genetic information in compartmentalized programs that are ultimately connected to the CIA, NSA, DARPA and DOD, where the blood of babies has been routinely sold after birth blood extraction. Now Google wants to work with banks to offer checking accounts - project Cache. The full spectrum of this power is economic to full spectrum dominance of owning your DNA and manufacturing DNA-specific weapons to target certain individuals. Why would they do this? Well, consider a recent report by 11,000+ scientists that suggested the world's population must be reduced with integrity. If you think you are saving the planet, then killing millions with plausible deniability is a justified means to that end, no matter what the reasoning. Nightingales are also known as muses or sirens that lure prey to their death. It is also the name of a thieves guild from the game Skyrim.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

This week's machinima is made in Skyrim, and whilst its a little older, it shows off beautifully the quality of the game, characters and lip sync capability. The film, by Wanderersofthedas was released in 2015, and was made using lines drawn only from the game's NPCs. It makes for an oddly familial campfire conversation, notwithstanding the numerous references to in game lore. Do you and add your comments on our channels, as usual.0:31 Introduction by Damien, using NPCs in a single player game4:12 Schizophrenia!6:37 The role of the campfire, and familial dysfunctional conversations 8:05 Attention to detail, nah. Do you need acting to convey a story??? In the days of ElevenLabs, would this kind of thing ever be acceptable. Would following a main character have enabled a story to be told?11:09 The narrative arc is missing, but its dysfunctionality is its central charm14:09 Discussing a creative strategy: choosing the lines for NPCs and the lip sync, identifying the modding toolsCredits -Speakers: Damien Valentine, Phil Rice, Tracy HarwoodProducer: Damien ValentineEditor: Phil RiceMusic: Animo Domini Beats
