    Kentucky Route Zero

    Kentucky Route Zero
    Seven years, five acts, and one podcast later, Matt and Tony finally explore the sad, dreamy world of Cardboard Computer's critically acclaimed Kentucky Route Zero. The game, which has rolled out episodically over the better part of the last decade and is now finally complete, is deceptively simple: a contemporary take on the narrative-focused point-and-click adventure game about a delivery man making what very well might be his employer's last shippment. Things get strange right away when his destination doesn't appear on any maps, and the only way to get there is by finding the titular and extra-dimensional(?) Route Zero. What follows is a ten-hour meditation on financial ruin, substance abuse, death, being a wage slave, crippling debt, memory, our relationship to media and technology, and more. Given its fanbase and critical reputation as one of the games of the decade, Kentucky Route Zero is the perfect topic for WDWM? - a game that lots of people have had lots to say about for a lot of years. Do Matt and Tony think it lives up to the hype? Go counter-clockwise until you come to the statue of David Lynch made out of moldy 8-track tapes, then turn around and make three clockwise loops and stop at the Emotional Sewage Treatment Plant to find out!

Then it's time for off-topic chat (1:07:25) on The Wire, McMillions, and The Wrecking Crew.

    Chicken Nugget Slam Dunk

    Chicken Nugget Slam Dunk
    Auch wenn wir uns am liebsten in den Untiefen von itch.io herumtreiben: Unsere interne Charte (Hinweis: Es gibt keine interne Charta) verpflichtet uns dazu, auch die prestigeträchtigen Indies unter die Lupe zu nehmen. Mit dem Postkapitalismusdrama Kentucky Route Zero und dem Widerstandssimulator Through The Darkest Of Times sind gleich zwei der wichtigsten Indie-Titel des Jahres kurz hintereinander erschienen. Daniel, Sonja und Florian sprechen über ihre Eindrücke, erläutern, was der Kapitalismus mit uns macht und warum Widerstand im Kleinen anfängt. Zusätzlich erforscht Daniel als Hobbitkoch Herr der Ringe Online und Sonja zaubert in Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3?! auf Tastendruck leckere Gerichte aus der Fritteuse. Die Leckerlevels hingegen fließen flüssig dahin - mit keinem, wenig und viel Alkohol. Im Cast besprochene Spiele: The Supper, Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3?!, Herr der Ringe Online, Schwerkraftprojektionsgerät, Through The Darkest Of Times, Kentucky Route Zero

    "Bestes Spiel des Jahrzehnts": Kentucky Route Zero vs. Frostpunk
    So, es ist so weit: Hier kommt der Auftakt für etwas, das sich jetzt schon anfühlt, wie die Erstbesteigung eines Achttausenders. Das Basislager steht, der Camping-Kocher ist verstaut, die Sauerstoff-Flaschen gefüllt. Jetzt also das erste Achtelfinale auf unserem langen Weg, um ein und für alle mal herauszufinden, was das beste Spiel des Jahrzehnts ist. Es stehen sich gegenüber Kentucky Route Zero (Christian Schiffer: „Gymnasiasten-Spiel“) und Frostpunk (Christian Alt: „One Trick Pony“). Danke für Eure Unterstützung unserer Patreon-Kampagne, wir sind überwältigt und gerührt. Packt jetzt die Zelte mit uns zusammen, es geht los!

    Why Kentucky Route Zero Feels Like A Stage Play

    Why Kentucky Route Zero Feels Like A Stage Play
    Attempts to bring gaming stories to the silver screen historically fall flat. Assassin’s Creed, WarCraft, Tomb Raider, Max Payne – the list goes on and on. But maybe that’s because gaming as a medium isn’t as similar to film as we think, and maybe it’s more similar to others. Satchell Drakes and Matt Perez discuss the commonalities between video games and literature, and why adaptations like The Witcher and Metro 2033 translate more effectively. The two also speak with the creators behind Kentucky Route Zero, a meditative magic surrealist game focused on telling disparate stories on a rundown trek of highway that takes influence from stage plays. Also @34:58, Erik Kain and Paul Tassi talk about virtual reality in 2018 and beyond, and why it may not go mainstream for years to come.
