The Remap Crew really gets into the Halloween spirit, mostly by dying from laughter and being otherwise childish. After an appropriately somber news section discussing the massive Amazon layoffs, Microsoft's ridiculous profit margin targets, and moral at EA deteriorating after workers are forced to use AI, we try our best to talk about the games we've been playing, or at least, have tried to play. Chia finds a new obsession, Janet continues her Silksong journey, Danika can't stop herself from laughing while Patrick tries to explain Ball x Pit, and Rob finds himself being left behind by a Paradox game.Discussed: Amazon hit with massive layoffs, including Games Division - 2:36Microsoft Set 30% Profit Margin for Games Division - 33:03Halo coming to PS5 - 46:15The DHS Memes - 52:09Internal Attitudes at EA Deteriorate around AI - 1:10:29Silksong - 1:29:08Pokemon Legends: Z-A - 1:37:53What Chia Did On Her Flight - 1:39:37Pokemon Legends: Z-A - 1:49:11.230Ball x Pit - 2:02:48Slots and Daggers - 2:16:07Absolum - 2:18:43Europa Universalis V - 2:24:35Master of Command - 2:44:36Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 - 2:51:04Battliefield: Redsec - 2:56:15See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Remap Radio 115 – RNGenius
We’re sad to report that Danika is struggling through the brutal norovirus at the moment, but fortunately, Janet’s returned from the whole “getting married” thing to join Patrick and Rob to chat about a recent slew of developments about how video games are using AI and how we should feel about it. We’ve also got Silksong updates from Janet (deep into act two) and Patrick (done!), while Rob’s trying to figure out his role in Battlefield 6. Plus, is Ball x Pit actually good?Discussed: 1:55 - The Current State of "AI" in Games55:31- Pokemon Legends ZA1:11:12 - BallxPit1:29:09 - Silksong1:45:03 - Battlefield 62:04:21 - The Question Bucket See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sports! – Emergency Field Goal Pod
Scheduling issues were going to prevent a full Sports! Recording this week, but Rob and Patrick privately committed to hopping on a microphone for a little bit if things went sideways—good or bad—for their beloved Bears. Now, the only question on their minds is: how BACK are they?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Join Rob Zacny, Chia Contreras, Patrick Klepek, and their friends and colleagues as they set off on a new adventure that has them obsessing over the video game Dragon’s Dogma nearly as much as they question the nature of capitalism.
