Editor’s note: this week’s episode contains an incredulous collective unpacking of an explosive investigative report about Roblox which goes into the many ways the game is dangerous for children. While not going into graphic detail about what was found in the report, it’s still a troubling look into the different ways Roblox and its ownership have put children in danger.
This week, John & Niki are joined by none other than IGN’s Michael Higham, VGBees’ number one fan and supporter. Michael played all of Metaphor: ReFantazio and graced us with a deep dive on the game’s vibes, story, mechanics, and much more. Seems like another banger in a year full of them. Also discussed:
- Roblox and the Hindenberg Research report
- Nintendo Alarmo
- Starfield: Shattered Space
- Elder Scrolls
- Persona
