She is Barbara Walters.

We are doomed.

Games on Earth 95: Des2nY!

Fri, 15 Sep 2017 18:24:37 +0000

This week Destiny fan and living grimoire Mark Johnson joins Derek for a long discussion all about Destiny 2. What was meant to be a quick 20 minute conversation turned into an hour long discussion about everything in the entire game.

Except the music. We forgot to mention how good the music is. I'll do that now: The music in Destiny 2 is fantastic. Like, seriously its really really great.

Also, I forgot to mention how much I love the introduction of the game so I'll do that now too: The introduction sequence of the game is really strong and I (Derek) had an amazing time playing through it.

There, I think that's everything.

Thanks for listening!

Games on Earth 94: Young Sheldon is a real thing?

Thu, 07 Sep 2017 17:35:00 +0000

Games on Earth is a multiplayer first-person podcast developed by Derek, Chris, and Brad and not published by Activision. It was released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 7, 2017, with a Microsoft Windows version scheduled for release the same day.

As in the original podcast, listeners are able to improve their characters, referred to as Guardians, by gaining experience points (EXP) — when a set number of experience points are accumulated, the player's character will "level up" and gain improved statistics which further enhance performance in battle. Episodes, including the "Young Sheldon Goofs" quest line, are specific tasks given to the listener by non-listener characters (NLCs) which reward items and EXP. Completing main scenario episodes progresses the overarching plot of the podcast.

Thanks for listening.

Games on Earth 93: The Butterfly Effect

Thu, 31 Aug 2017 16:00:22 +0000

This week Ian is back for the second time ever to subtlety change every listeners fate. Even just reading this sentence is changing your life in all sorts of minor ways. Imagine if you hadn't read this? You'd be reading something else or thinking of something else. That means just by reading this your thought process has been forever changed. You may even be thinking "what the hell, this isn't changing my future", but even that thought is different than what could've been had you not read this.

No moment is insignificant.

Life is a long series of these moments.

Please enjoy this podcast about games that will change your life forever.

Sit on your invisible tails and perk up those dragon ears, because in this week's Games on Earth, the guys return and dive deep into their fursonas as they talk about their recent gaming adventures. Wolfboy McDerekson has been slaying rats in Vermintide (you know, like wolves do) and Jesse Goatman has been skulking around very confidently as a sniper in PUBG (you know, like bears do). Foxyboy Dancypants Conlon then tells us about how he's been stepping to the beat in Crypt of the Necrodancer before Rats Bitcheno gives us the inside scoop on HUD-less Dishonored. They wrap the podcast up like extradimensional spaghetti around a timeless fork with some Beyond Skyrim: Bruma talk and a revisiting of Hyper Light Drifter.

Games on Earth 85: No Thanks Uncle Sam!

Thu, 06 Jul 2017 15:31:47 +0000

Podcasting in general hosts an invitation for the viewer or listener to invest a personal attentiveness. Unlike other mediums, the nature of podcasting is tipped toward the emotional rather than intellectual. It is this personal connection with podcasts and all art that enables the patron to actually experience what is being communicated, rather than merely understanding the information. While all forms of podcast share this dynamic, Games on Earth, with its unique characteristic of collective improvisation, exemplifies it.

This one is all about America.

Thanks for listening!
