The Week That Was: 08/02 - 08/07/2021
🕑 Added 2021-08-07 22:32:43 +0000 UTCGreetings Nextlanders! Hope you all had a terrific week and are having a nice, relaxing weekend so far. It's time once again to recap everything we've posted over the last week. On to the content!
Here Decay, Gone Tomorrow! -- Episode 05
You might say things are really "heating up" over here in State of Decay 2. More plague hearts are taken down, we're within range of a tier 3 base, and everything's going great. Definitely no problems or people dying. Not at all. Nope.
Very Vinny Mornings: The Ascent
For this week's morning stream, I team up with Vinny to check out the cyberpunk shooter The Ascent, and while it's still a little rough around the edges, we find ourselves digging both the vibes and the action.
Weekly Ramblecast 008: Give Deer the Vote
This week we ramble about pop-up hardcore shows in Brooklyn, more kitten stuff, Brad's ventures into the world of Rust (the programming language, not the game) and where to get the sickest fiber in the United States. (Above photo of None Above All by Carl Gunhouse)
Monthly Planorama 003: August 2021
John Madden has seen his shadow, and it is time for video games to start coming out again. Alongside EA's gridiron cash cow, we're looking forward to a number of August's releases, including Psychonauts 2, 12 Minutes, Humankind, and that Ghost of Tsushima DLC/director's cut.
The Nextlander Podcast 009: Kneading Biscuits in Your Brain
On this week's installment of our flagship podcast, we talk The Ascent, the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters, The Ramp, putting a new hard drive in your PS5, the ongoing developments at Activision Blizzard, and the featureless sphere of comedy that is Jerry Seinfeld. Grab it here, or wherever you download your podcasts!
Full Motion Vinny: The 13th Doll -- Part 02
This fan game sequel to The 7th Guest continues to delight us with its cheeseball acting and surprisingly engaging puzzles. OK, it's mostly the acting, but the puzzles aren't bad! Then again, anything looks good compared to those Daedalus Encounter puzzles. Yeesh.
Sailing the Sea of Thieves with Abby Russell
Once again our friend and yours Abby Russell joins us for some pirating adventures on the high seas. And while we get a good chunk of the way through this latest tall tale, we eventually fall victim to The Curse of the Malfunctioning Server.
And that's the week! We'll be back on Monday with more, and as always, thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who supports us. We couldn't do this without you.

They patched the recent crashing issue in State of Decay 2, so I'm hoping it'll be smoother for you all in the coming episodes.

I can't believe your playing finally got me to play State of Decay 2. I got so into in that I burned like 40 hours in cleared a map, then uninstalled and walked away.
