This week, Jared and I talk about one of our most anticipated releases of the year, DOOM Eternal. We compared it to DOOM (2016), discuss the gameplay, how the game is insanely lore heavy, our overall thoughts, and why I had to quit ripping and tearing.

Sports have been cancelled this year, so Jared and I are filling the March Madness gap with Aqours Madness! We go through 64 songs from Love Live! Sunshine!!, make some choices, give opinions, and get into the rare Jared and AL argument to determine once and for all which is the top tier Aqours song!

Jared and AL talking about Love Live!? It’s more likely than you think. (AKA nobody is surprised) First, I went to a delayed screening of Love Live! Fest this week, and so I chat about my experience with that and how I definitely cried. After that, we talk a bit about the global version of Love Live! School Idol Festival All Stars. Some of it is confusing, so Jared explains it way better than the game does. We also talk about the new Nijigasaki gals and how their story plays out in the game, and how we both have a surprising character that we love now because of this game.

While there was hope that Catherine: Full Body could fix the narrative issues from the original, it does the exact opposite. Catherine (either version), in essence, is a game where you play as a character who is -phobic and misogynistic, surrounding himself with others who mostly think like him. Vincent is sleazy, but we are encouraged to support his quest since he is the “hero” of the game. However, Vincent rarely learns that his behavior is abhorrent—the only time he has repercussions for his actions are in the “bad” endings of the game, and even then, there is no indication that Vincent would change anything about his behaviors.

This week, AL rages a lot. First, I walk us through Ichigo Takano’s (Orange) Dreamin’ Sun. I discuss the story, what I liked, and what I felt was unforgivable. We then played The Division 2 (thanks Tom Clancy) because it was heckin’ cheap. I was pretty hype to check out some of the museums, and so we talk about what was right, what was completely inaccurate, how it’s an interesting idea to incorporate museums like this, and what museum got the ultimate insult.

Next, I break down the first game in The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky series to scratch my Trails itch, and I get to see Olivier in his full traveling musician glory. Finally, Jared and I discuss Stranger Things 3: The Game to chat about licensed video games and whether this one is any good.

This week, Jared and I decided to go with something completely different! As huge Aqours fans, we decided to build our own version of a Live setlist for them. We limited ourselves to a format that was consistent with a Live style, and we built what we have deemed the “Cool Live”, including outfits and Day 1/Day 2 differences. You can listen to a Spotify setlist here (although it is incomplete due to Spotify not having everything, but I tried!)
