Myself and VGCollectaholic have been hard at work on a brand new video game news and commentary podcast called Masters of Unlocking. I know what you are thinking. The answer is “Yes, the world does need another video game podcast.” The more places we have to discuss video games, the more valid the medium becomes.

Just how great is NieR: Automata? A video game review [VIDEO]
The credits have rolled on NieR: Automata. It’s amazing, but has it taken over The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild as my favorite game of 2017?
Have you played NieR: Automata? If so, what are your thoughts?

Are Video Games Medicine? [VIDEO]
Video games could be thought of as proper medicine in the future. That’s exciting. I’m excited by the idea that video games could help people with ADHD, could help us prevent contagion epidemics, could help us understand mental health issues better, could help us find a cure for that auditory hallucination thing that happens after playing a game for way too long and you start hearing the game’s sound effects in your waking life.
What are your thoughts?

Shakespeare with Robots – NieR: Automata’s video game commentary on humanity [VIDEO]
I’ve been playing NieR: Automata for a few weeks, and I have no plans to stop anytime soon. It’s incredible. But you didn’t come here for my opinion. You came here because you’re interested in what “Shakespeare with Robots” means. Before we get to the production proper, a bit of setup. NieR: Automata (there, I’ve given both pronunciations, so please don’t correct me in the comments) takes place thousands of years into the future where androids live on the moon and essentially do the bidding of the few remaining humans. Down on Earth, robots have evolved to be intelligent and they strive to become human, or at least what they’ve learned humans to be based on artifacts,primarily literature and plays.
And with that in mind, I present to you Romeos and Juliets. Enjoy the theatre.

The credits have rolled on Nova-111. It’s fun. It’s quirky. It makes you feel smart (usually). What more could you want from a video game?

Wolfenstein: The Old Blood video game review. Zombies are back?
The credits have rolled on Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. Is it a good video game? Well, that depends. If you are 100% pro-Wolfenstein, then sure. If you only liked The New Order because of it’s brilliant storytelling, then probably not. If you wished The New Order was more about run-and-gun, duck-and-cover shooting, then definitely yes!
Have you played Wolfenstein: The Old Blood? If so, what are your thoughts?
