Episode description

On this episode of Total Pebble Knockdown:

* It appears that video games are the new go-to medium for film adaptation. What a wonderful time to explain that video games and movies are different things. Is Super Mario Brothers a movie masterpiece? Why would you want silent protagonists to suddenly recite dialogue? Why has Master Chief not gotten to the freakin' ring world the whole game series is named after!? Oh, and are they actually gonna try making a Fallout series? Why?

* We grow very attached to our characters when playing RPGs. What aspects of their adventure can carry forward into the next campaign? Will you play an adversary or fellow student? Will you inherit their laboratory? Will you rebuild the town they set on fire? We go over our most memorable player characters and what their legacy might look like in this Crit Think.

* While Nathan enjoys playing life sims, he had stayed away from Farming Simulator 2022... until now. So, how exactly did that go and can Alex explain why he is wrong?
