This week, Patrick has a Very Dad Deekend, Ren tries out sucking blood in V Rising, and we have an extended discussion around free to play monetization around Diablo Immortal. Then after the break, Patrick, Ren, and Cado go full spoiler mode to talk about Citizen Sleeper, a tabletop RPG-inspired narrative game that got it’s hooks in all of us. The game’s unique depiction of surviving with a disabled body under capitalism, and the ways community can be built in places you might not expect them to flourish, really grabbed us.
Discussed: Patrick’s Dad Weekend 3:43, V Rising 14:14, Diablo Immortal 30:38, Citizen Sleeper Spoilercast 48:48, Outro and Announcements 1:56:56
