What happens when a seemingly peaceful cult takes a bizarre turn? Pastor Longhorn's Great Ascension promises love and serenity, but its practices are anything but ordinary. Join us as Bobby frantically attempts to rescue George from this cult's clutches, while George remains surprisingly enthusiastic about spooning with the pastor and indulging in 'Pasta Vasta.' The tension between Bobby’s rational concerns and George’s eccentric experiences makes for an unforgettable story filled with surreal humor and unexpected twists. Switching gears, we share hilarious tales from our latest gaming escapades, from the terror of zombie games to the thrill of conquering challenging titles. Our love for Lovecraftian visual novels, puppet combo games, and classics like Resident Evil shines through as we reminisce about old-school graphics and quirky gameplay moments. Our enthusiasm for upcoming releases like Stellar Blade and Black Myth: Wukong is infectious, and we can't help but laugh at our own gaming antics and the addictive nature of Brotato. Finally, we dive deep into the world of Assassin's Creed, reflecting on its journey from the cinematic brilliance of Assassin's Creed 3 to the fantastical settings of Valhalla. We debate how the series could benefit from a darker aesthetic, drawing parallels to the visceral intensity of God of War. Our excitement for upcoming titles like Star Wars Outlaws and the new Assassin's Creed in Japan is palpable, promising rich narrative experiences. Plus, we sprinkle in personal anecdotes about friends dreaming of a quieter life in Vermont, adding a touch of warmth and humor to this jam-packed episode.<a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/276201/support">Support the show</a>
