Watch Out for Fireballs!

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross plumb the depths of Cave Story.

It’s a story that will make you feel like you’ve wasted your life. A while back, a single man dedicated five years to singlehandedly crafting one of the most beloved modern platformers. Oh, and he also fired the starting pistol on the indie game movement as we know it. But excuse us, we’re just talking into microphones forever.

Gary Butterfield, Kole Ross, and Will Owens sniff around Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within.

FMV games are a bizarre evolutionary dead end, but we found the very best one to give the WOFF! treatment. Gabriel Knight is back on the case, in full living color, hunting down a Bavarian werewolf and learning a little bit about his own sexuality. We can take solace in one fact: We can’t mangle German any worse than Gabriel Knight himself.

Special thanks to our Kickstarter backer Will Owens for suggesting this awesome game AND joining us to talk about it.

I can't even pretend to summarize what happens in Killer7. It even defies genre delineation. Instead, I will go with the angle that Killer7 is an incredibly divisive game that places style over substance... and how much you'll enjoy it depends on how much you dig the style.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross are joined by Levi, Nick, Ben, and Courtney for a very special live play session of Dungeons & Dragons.

We've been talking about it for a while, and here it finally is. Thanks to your Kickstarter donations, it was possible for us to record a live play session of Pathfinder, a Dungeons & Dragons style tabletop roleplaying game. The audio quality on this will sound a little different than our usual episodes, and it's not as thoroughly edited, but we wanted to give you the full experience of the play session.

Support Watch Out for Fireballs!

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross put pen to paper (in an audio sense) to talk about Dungeons & Dragons and its legacy in this very special episode.

If you’ve ever played a game where a number was assigned to a character, you have D&D to thank for that. This is a very special episode made possible by our wonderful Kickstarter backers. For the first half, we talk about the history of Dungeons and Dragons. In the second half, we talk about D&D’s impact on video games, and take a brief tour of games based on it.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross hunch over and gruffle a can of Dishonored.

Games aren’t very good at depicting nuanced ethics. Is it better to kill someone for revenge, or sentence them to a lifelong fate worse than death? That’s what we go through with Corvo, the disgraced royal bodyguard who has been framed for the Empress’s murder. Spoiler: we really love this game. This is part of our series on new games called Watch Out for Lens Flare!

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross choose to talk about the first part of Fallout 2.

Not only are you the descendant of the person who saved humanity from utter destruction, but you’re also called “The Chosen One”. Pressure much? The Garden of Eden may be a biblical allegory, but it never feels less real than when you’re searching for it in a blasted nuclear hellscape. Nevermind all of the slavery, drugs, debauchery, murder, abominations… and whatnot.

We’re rectifying a pretty big blind spot in our Nintendo pantheon here by addressing Kirby Super Star. Usually this text expounds on a pithy overview of a game’s plot and premise. How do you do that when you’re playing a literal Fun Pak of games? You suck it up and do a whole episode, that’s how.

A very special thanks goes out to Sam Anderson, who backed our Kickstarter, for both suggesting this delightful game and guest-hosting with us.

If Guybrush is so hapless... then what does it say about LeChuck? I mean, dread pirate keeps getting all defeated and shit. No matter how big the adventure gets, LeChuck doesn't stand much of a chance. Come along with us on a monacle-stealing caper that will bury you alive.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross go supernova on the final third of Final Fantasy VII.

Thus concludes our longest saga ever: Final Fantasy VII. We hope you enjoyed it, because we likely don’t have another one in us (at least for a year). Cloud is lost to the world, WEAPON is on the loose, and everyone is looking for answers (and themselves).
This episode covers everything from the Execution scene to the end of the game, including all of the side quests.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross plunge into their second episode about Final Fantasy VII.

The chase continues as Sephiroth flees ever northward. As we follow him, we reveal more of his past… but mostly uncover more mysteries about What Exactly is Going On Here. Also, we spend a great deal of time talking about… you guessed it… Aeris’s death. Get your tissues ready, the waifu goes down.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross take their discussion of the first part of Final Fantasy VII to the limit.

This is the beginning of a long saga. Not just for one of the most popular games ever, but for our discussion of it. Final Fantasy VII is kind of controversial, which is probably why we love it so goddamned much. We dedicate these three hours to talking about the first portion of the game in depth.

This begins our first three-part episode. This week’s show talks about everything up through Corel Prison. Episodes will come out weekly thereafter, culminating in an Extrasode to tie everything up.
