This does actually result in some fairly sensible dicussion of bosses and what we think of them as a concept, which I know will come as a great surprise to you all. We were surprised our own selves. There is, however, a lengthly discussion on the 2010 film Wolfman, and an anecdote about pizza from Matthew. We shall circle back to his opinions on cured meats, never you fear. You can listen above, or on on Spotify, iTunes, Stitcher, or Pocket Casts. You can find the RSS feed here, and you can discuss the episode on our Discord channel, which has a dedicated room for podcast chat. Music is by Jack de Quidt. Links This week Matthew opens the show with talk of Platinum Games’s games, specifically The Wonderful 101. Nate brings up Borderlands, a game which has cool boss intro screens. I throw in boss rush games like Cuphead, as well as games which are not boss rush games but feel like they are, like Dark Souls or Persona 5 Strikers. We also suggest that Monster Hunter: World, in which you punch a giant iguana until it vomits, is a great Nate game. Escobar’s cocaine hippos are threatening Colombia. Check out the RPS Podcast text adventure Dogfish Heist made by Shergar’s Heart Squad member Jacob. Recs this week are ITV cop show Unforgotten, Dragons, Unicorns and More Fantasy Amigurumi so you can make your own little crochet pals, and sci-fi epic Cage Of Souls by Adrian Tchaikovsky
