Summary

While Rob’s spending time with family, we’re sneaking in a fun announcement: Save Point is back next week, baby! But first, we discussed the Mario trailer, and Cado did an incredible thing: went to an event to play a video game! Unfortunately, so far, Forspoken left a lot to be desired. Elsewhere, Patrick has wrapped up (and loved) Return to Monkey Island. After the break, Ren’s vibing to Season, a game where you document the final moments of a doomed world, and both Ren and Cado basically lost a weekend inside a dice hole to Slice and Dice.


Discussed: Mario Movie Trailer 5:07, Save Point 2022 14:27, Crisis Core Remaster 17:45, Forspoken 27:18, Return to Monkey Island 47:06, Season 51:23, Slice and Dice 1:01:42, The Question Bucket 1:14:37

Hey, Roman Forgan to the podcast.

0:02.0

I just wanted to acknowledge some events that took place late last week that have had

a direct impact on the folks here at Waypoint.

0:10.5

We unfortunately had layoffs come through vice that impacted Gita Jackson, who's been

Someone I've known for a very long time, shot us to the match.

Three podcasts that I used to do with Gita years back when we both lived in Chicago and

Rachel Pick, who has been, is formerly the audience development manager for both Waypoint

0:33.8

and Motherboard and has been someone who's been incredibly invaluable into a lot of behind-the-scenes

0:38.4

work to make things like Waypoint Plus work as well as it does.

0:43.4

We are going to miss both of them dearly.

0:46.0

We wish them both well in finding extremely good landing spots.

0:51.0

Any place would be thankful to have Gita or Rachel on their teams.

0:57.2

Obviously, this sort of threw off an original plan we had for the podcast, which was supposed

1:00.3

to be anime filled, watching chainsaw man, watching Gundam.

1:03.8

It just didn't feel appropriate right after to just jump into that.

1:08.9

Maybe we'll find a way to revisit those in the future either later this month or down

1:14.2

the line.

1:15.2

Apologies if you're looking forward to that episode of the podcast and our thanks to all

1:20.2

the contributions from both Gita and Rachel over their time in which we've had a chance

1:24.6
