Intro

Our cup runneth over with role-playing games, so Ben and Matt James party up to tag-team two new titans of the genre. After opening banter about Nintendo Switch 2 preorders and ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ timing, they profess their love (in spoiler-free fashion) for the new hit RPG ‘Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’ and explain why the debut game gives them hope for the industry. Then they share their impressions of the recently released RPG behemoth ‘The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered’ and discuss the difference between remasters and remakes and the proper approach to modernizing old games.
