Greetings listeners!On this week&#39;s episode we&#39;ve got a hefty Quest Log where we break down our early impressions on Final Fantasy VII Rebirth now that we&#39;ve had more time with the game. Kyran has managed to hit credits but we don&#39;t discuss anything really beyond Chapter 4 (or the Lower/Upper Junon segment of the game) so feel free to give it a listen! We do plan on doing a massive episode with full spoilers on this game at some point, but it is a huge game so it might take a while to get everyone on the same page.We also squeeze in a Bonus Round where we touch on the newly announced Expansion Pass for Persona 3 Reload that seeks to add the content originally included in Persona 3 FES on the PS2, &#39;The Answer&#39;, which will be dropping in September. We also briefly chat about a new Dungeons and Dragon title on the way from the team behind Disney Dreamlight Valley and Geoff Keighley confirms that Summer Game Fest will return this June.Feel free to hit us up using the links below!<a href="https://twitter.com/DialogueOptions" rel="nofollow">Dialogue Options Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/StoryModeAUS" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS Twitter</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/StoryModeAUS" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS Facebook</a><a href="https://twitter.com/JoelyMac" rel="nofollow">Joel (@JoelyMac)</a><a href="https://twitter.com/LemonManX" rel="nofollow">Kyran (@LemonManX)</a>

Greetings listeners!We&#39;re back with another episode! Apologies for the delay, Kyran was feeling a bit under the weather last week and despite the fact that he might not sound much better this week he definitely feels better! This week&#39;s episode is a Quest Log special where we talk about our extended time that we&#39;ve spent spreading good old fashioned democracy to planets under thread in Helldivers 2, plus Joel offers his early impressions on the recent smash hit poker-based deck building roguelike, Balatro, and Kyran restrains himself from getting too excited with his early hype surrounding Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.Audacity also decided to chew up some of our audio about mid-way through the Helldivers 2 discussion so if you notice a weird jump that&#39;s the cause of it. Not some weird time-skip.Going forward we&#39;ll also be moving back to a fortnightly rotation for the foreseeable future ahead of some big life changes for Joel and so we have more time to play games to bring on the show to talk about!If you want to reach out feel free to hit us up using the links below!<a href="https://twitter.com/DialogueOptions" rel="nofollow">Dialogue Options Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/StoryModeAUS" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS Twitter</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/StoryModeAUS" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS Facebook</a><a href="https://twitter.com/JoelyMac" rel="nofollow">Joel (@JoelyMac)</a><a href="https://twitter.com/LemonManX" rel="nofollow">Kyran (@LemonManX)</a>

Greetings listeners!Another year, another Gamescom Opening Night Live hosted by Geoff Keighley. We run through a majority of the headlines from the main show and pick a handful to focus on and offer our thoughts on the overall feel of the show after Geoff reminded everyone to keep their expectations in check last week.We also touch on some other news this week including the lay-offs at BioWare, the recent Destiny 2 Showcase for The Final Shape and beyond, before finishing up on the most shocking news of the week with Charles Martinet winding down his time voicing Mario and stepping into a new ambassador role.(PS. Apologies for any coughs that got out of Kyran mid-Joel talk, he&#39;s shaking off a really annoying cough that has outstayed its welcome through the week)If you want to reach out to us feel free to hit up the links below!<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXIWpKeyV6XbketWEdKfmvg" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS YouTube</a><a href="https://twitter.com/StoryModeAUS" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS Twitter</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/StoryModeAUS" rel="nofollow">Story Mode AUS Facebook</a><a href="https://twitter.com/JoelyMac" rel="nofollow">Joel (@JoelyMac)</a><a href="https://twitter.com/LemonManX" rel="nofollow">Kyran (@LemonManX</a>
