Today we are feeling nostalgic...for a time long gone, when multiplayer games were only expected to last you for a few hours a week for maybe a month or two. When console wars were the most toxic spats in the gaming space.

We were meant to play timely games, but only Nicco really understood the assignment. However, Brody REALLY enjoyed Pentiment and you may have forgotten it exists. Chris' only timely contributions this week were Sonic Rumble, Sonic Racing Crossworlds, and the first two episodes of Pluribus. Only one of those three brought him joy. Lastly, Nicco is eating crow on turn-based RPGs.

The Blerds are back bringing you all of their thoughts on everything happening in nerd culture. This week, Shannon and James dive deep into their nerdy things including anime recommendations like 'Paprika' and 'Gachiakuta', video game experiences with titles like 'Ghost of Yotei' and 'Astrobot', and discussions on popular shows like 'Peacemaker' and 'Gen V'. They also explore the complexities of anime narratives, particularly in 'Chainsaw Man', and share their ongoing journey with 'One Piece'. They also talk about anime filler episodes and reading recommendations to the ongoing legal battle between Sony and Tencent over game similarities. They discuss the potential impact of copycat games on established franchises, the pricing of upcoming games like GTA 6, and the value of video games in general. The conversation also touches on the future of beloved franchises like Sly Cooper and the importance of game demos. Finally, they wrap up with recommendations for Halloween-themed anime.   Chapters  00:00 -Introduction to Nerdy Things for the Week 00:31-Anime Discussions: Kaiju Number Eight and Paprika 03:10 - Exploring Sci-Fi Thrillers: Paprika and Its Creator 04:35 -Gen V: Catching Up  06:24 -Video Game Adventures: Ghost of Yotei and Astro Bot  11:43 -Controller Troubles and Gaming Experiences 17:06 - Astrobot: A Fun Platformer Experience 20:44 - Gen V and Peacemaker: Series Reviews 22:56 - Gachiakuta: A Dark Episode Discussion 24:45 - Chainsaw Man: Embracing the Dub 27:41 - One Piece: The Journey Begins 30:27 - Reading Cat's Eye: A Thief's Tale 31:38 - Sony vs. Tencent: The Horizon Lawsuit 38:28 -Live Action Horizon: Movie Plans 40:34 -Marvel Rivals: Player Base Decline 42:40 - GTA 6: The $100 Game Debate 43:29 -The Pricing Dilemma of GTA 6 53:33 -Sucker Punch Studio's Future Projects 01:01:28 -The Value of Video Games and Demos   Subscribe to us on Youtube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your podcast app of choice!     Follow Us!  https://linktr.ee/blerdsnerds   National Resources List https://linktr.ee/NationalResourcesList   Youtube  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK56I-TNUnhKhcWLZxoUTaw   Email us: Blerdsnerds@gmail.com   Follow Our Social: https://www.instagram.com/blerdsnerds/ https://twitter.com/BlerdsNerds https://www.facebook.com/blerdsnerds https://tiktok.com/blerdsnerds_pod   Shannon: https://www.instagram.com/luv_shenanigans James: https://www.instagram.com/llsuavej  Jaja: https://www.instagram.com/jajasmith3

This was recorded in a world before Silksong, so please excuse Chris' dunks on the Silksong community. He has since played 8 hours of it and thinks it's good. However, for years before it's release every gaming show would have the same meme. Where's Silksong? We've seen this with other games over time as well. Where's Half-Life 3? Where's Shenmue 3? What's Randy Pitchford doing on that bathroom floor? Sometimes we have to wonder, are we excited about the actual games, or are we just excited about being excited about games? Also in this episode, Moriarty tells us what PAX was like this year. MORE PLACES TO FIND USCrubscribe ► https://bit.ly/CrubcastGet the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crubOur Crubcasts are recorded LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/crub_official every Tuesday at 7pm Eastern, with EXCLUSIVE Pre- and Post-ShowsJoin our Discord ► https://crub.org/joinBlueSky ► https://bsky.app/profile/crub.orgCome join our Steam group ► https://steamcommunity.com/groups/crubclubPodcasts are available on Apple, Google, Spotify, and other platforms are available at ► https://crub.orgSHOW NOTESHere's the Pax Autocratica game that Moriarty mentions around 25:45 in:https://store.steampowered.com/app/1067360/Pax_Autocratica/TODAY'S CRUBCAST HOSTSChris: https://www.youtube.com/@MykonosFanMoriarty: https://www.youtube.com/@reallycoolTrav: https://www.youtube.com/@ThatTravGuyCHAPTERS00:00 We've kept you waiting...04:17 We may actually be close to Half-Life 3?16:31 Do we value hype cycles more than the games themselves?27:39 Moriarty wreaks havoc at Gearbox PAX booth (not clickbait)30:42 Gamers, we've gotta do better...hygiene it up!37:41 Overinvesting to play a game before it comes out soon after..39:58 You don't miss E3.

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.
