Bad Writing and Worse Audio

The Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast Returns!


Well, at least Loki Jarson (me) does.

I recorded a solo show dealing with only two games:

Gears of War 4 and Horizon: Zero Dawn.

More specifically, the writing and plot of these games and how they are both terrible for different reasons.

Less analysis and more late-night rantings, this episode was recorded in the middle of the night without really stopping. As such, a few things to note:


  • I completely forget the name of both a character in Gear of War 4 and the name of the primary antagonists until nearly the end.
  • My explanation of the AI system in Horizon: Zero Dawn doesn't make a whole lot of of sense, but the game does a very poor job of explaining them anyways.
  • Halfway through, I realize my microphone cable is tapping against my desk so a very irritating clicking noise is heard for the first half of the show.
  • My thoughts may seemed erratic at times but that is just how I talk when I have no one to bounce ideas off of. Also, I edited out a ten minute ramble about superhero TV shows that had no bearing on anything.

Spoilers abound and drinks all around!
