Episode notes

The game is filled with these like little moments that are just really clever and I think it's like paced extremely well. It's also from a scale standpoint like it's just very smart like it doesn't overstay it's welcome. And in this game, you're not meeting 3D models. It just cuts to kind of the, I guess Hades is a good comparison.

Dredge is one of 2023's best surprises, a fishing adventure mixed with Lovecraftian horror. Don't worry though: it's not too scary. In fact, Dredge's much more interested in the fishing aspect than you might expect from a game marketed around cosmic terror. Plus, Plante has become obsessed with Octopath Traveler 2. How does someone who dislikes turn-based combat fall in love with this sort of game? And is it recommended for everyone or just people who love RPGs? All that and more on this week's Resties!
