Digital Suffering #16 - Terminator: Resistance, Hardland & Mario Kart Tour

Episode 16
1h 0m | Oct 7, 2019

The suffering starts now! Your hosts Phantom Limb and Steven Something go to war with the machines following the surprise announcement of 'Terminator: Resistance', an FPS based on the future foretold in 'The Terminator' and 'Terminator 2' movies. Coming this November to coincide with the release of the third movie in the franchise (because they only ever made two movies... πŸ˜‰).

Following on from that, the mood lightens a little (but only a little) as we look at the darkly-humoured, surreal fantasy game 'Hardland'. In the show, it gets compared to a love-child between the Discworld novels and 'The Legend of Zelda' games. Well worth investigating if either of those things appeals to you.

Last up on the games list is 'Mario Kart Tour' which launched on mobiles recently. It's fun enough and you can definitely see the potential, but when it comes to monetisation... Oh, Nintendo, what are you thinking?

Speaking of the monies, we wrap things up with a discussion on Epic Store exclusives and why monopolies are bad, M'kay?
