408: Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth, Witchfire and The Finals

The Inner Gamer Podcast

In this episode, Brett gives an early review of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. This game dropped back in January but we're just now getting to it. He's only 8 hours in so there is still 50 some more hours to enjoy but we share a lot of the early gameplay, talk about the story, experience the minigames and more.

Austin gets his hands on the early access of the Witchfire game which is a soulslike extraction style game. There's a lot going on here and it seems promising!

Brett also talks about The Finals and how after 4 seasons of content, it's still on fire and showing even more success with this latest season. It brings a new map, a new approach to the world tour, a new sponsor contract system and much more.

343 Industries has renamed to Halo Studios. This means they're all in on Halo. is this a good thing or a bad thing? We are expecting multiple Halo games in the future and they're built in Unreal Engine 5 now.

We're also disappointed both in Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown which is so bad that Brett has uninstalled it. The game disconnects, the patches don't do anything significant and the AI sucks. We also talk about the PlayStation Portal and Austin is upset that it doesn't deliver the quality he had hoped.

You can follow their Kickstarter here when it goes live or wishlist it on Steam.
