Episode description

This week, Niki and John got way into it about Evo 2024, the brilliance of fighting games, and the way sports have (and haven't) infiltrated the industry's biggest event for the genre. Also:

  • No Man's Sky 5.0
  • Flock
  • Dungeons of Hinterberg

The crew also (clumsily) dissected the ramifications of Bethesda and World of Warcraft teams forming wall-to-wall unions this week. Seems particularly big in the face of Humble Games shutting down and the weird spin Ziff Davis put on the closure.

Hive questions include:

  • What's the gaming equivalent of saying Macbeth in a theater?
  • Are curved monitors a scam?
  • Who should write the Skibidi Toilet movie?

This episode marked the debut of The VGBees Census, a new segment designed to pull biographical and taste information from our guests. This week's test subject was cohost Niki Grayson. Thanks Niki! Also, happy birthday Barley!

As always, you can join The Hive and ask questions in our Discord and we'll answer them on the show!
