249: Oculus Quest, Warhammer & 2010-2019 in Games

The Oculus Quest has been out since May of this year but now that’s Black Friday times we decided to pick one up. Brett goes from the Oculus Rift to a Quest and won’t ever go back. The Quest is true, wireless virtual reality with surprising performance and tracking. We play Vader Immortal, Beat Saber and more without a PC. Austin also talks about his new obsession: Warhammer Beastgrave. He plays several games and discusses what makes this game so fun and engaging.

Playstation has announced they are no longer in the handheld market which may be a good thing. Riot Games has settled their lawsuit with female workers and the women are winning out and getting some justice for the unequal pay in this California company. Rocket League replaces loot boxes with blueprints and people aren’t happen. Finally, In the Valley of Gods is on hold so the dev team behind Firewatch can work on Half-Life Alyx and other Valve projects.

Our discussion this week takes us back over the last 10 years to talk about the decade in gaming. From Limbo in 2010 to Death Stranding this year, we talk about it all and share our top most influential games of the decade. It’s a longer segment but well worth the listen.
