Episode 152: Destiny Dads

With Ricardo mysteriously absent Matt and Ethan recruit Parker to help us parse through all the new Destiny news that just launched! Matt gets emotional during a credits sequence, Parker is looking at his dog in whole new ways (not in a gross way, you sicko), and Ethan—and this is not a joke—takes off his pants. That plus plenty of Destiny news, The Witcher on Netflix, weird Squirtles, and possibly the worst Larry the Cable guy impression you’ve heard.

Games we played:

Matt: Nier Automata is DONE, Dead Cells

Ethan: Injustice 2

Parker: The Last Guardian, Breath of the Wild

Amber joins Matt, Ethan, and Ricardo this week to update us on the 70 hours she’s poured into Persona 5. Matt and Ethan took a trip together to murder island, and Ricardo’s been just doing raccoon things.

Games we played:

Matt: PLAYERUNKOWN’S Battlegrounds, NieR: Automata

Ethan: PLAYERUNKOWN’S Battlegrounds, Breath of the Wild

Ricardo: Marvel Heroes Omega (Closed Beta)

Amber: Persona 5
