Bad End

You know why we're here. We're tossing out new ideas, angles, themes, and insights about the hot game of 2023 and the sequel to the first game BAD END ever discussed in depth: Tears of the Kingdom! Stick around after the ending song for a mini solo-cast Josh recorded while Kyle had to step out. A few other topics discussed: - TotK as exploration of the "Permaweird" state of society in 2023 - FROMsoftian focus on deities and the sacred, as well as subversions of tradition that come with pushing against those expectations - unpacking the strange tendencies toward malice in TotK's design and balance - FOMO effect that makes you feel like youre missing out even as youre playing the gameCheck out our new merch on the merch tab at the top of our site: badendpodcast.comFollow BAD END Videos at the SUPERCULTURE YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/superculturevideoSupport us on Patreon to join us live and gain discord access: https://www.patreon.com/badendBAD END is proud to be part of SUPERCULTURE, a network o
