Behind the Line: Video Game Violence, the Blame Game… (Origins)
I don’t normally like to talk political here, but over the past week we’ve seen the revival of blaming video games for real life violence. I’m tired of this, and anyone with any sense can see this argument for the
Fallout 76 reasons why
Hello, Enthusiacs. I am Vega Goose, your host, and I return to you know after a very long absence to discuss the latest entry into the Fallout franchise. Fallout 76 was a terrible idea from the word go. Everyone not
Behind the Line: GOG and Sean Halliday
GOG community manager Sean Halliday was fired last week for several high profile missteps on their Twitter account. My reaction: "He claims that while he’s sorry for the two inflammatory Tweets he sent there was never anything malicious behind them." That
Behind the Line: Telltale Games

BTL Radio Podcast – Ep 049: Extra Credits talks QA
Hello Enthusiacs! I wrote about the Extra Credits QA video already, but I felt there was more to discuss, and that the topic lent itself more to a discussion format than an article anyway. With that in mind, I got
Behind the Line: Extra Credits Talks QA
Yay, Extra Credits finally talked about QA! I’d been looking forward to this for years. Now that I’ve seen it I’m… it’s there. It’s fine. Boy, this took me a while to get to… *checks* Over a month!? Damn… Well,
