No Prisoners, No Mercy
There comes a time, friends, when your favorite MMO ceases to sparkle, when even new videogames lose their luster, and the computer room becomes a prison; and all that is left are two gamers (who happen to be nuns) with a very large axe to grind. Come join Julie Whitefeather and Frances Kosac as they discuss the events in the videogame industry.

No Prisoners, No Mercy - show 191

Welcome to show 191 of the No Prisoners, No Mercy Show.

This time out we discuss destructive behavior in videogames. Have the donkeyhats made your virtual life miserable? Are they somehow actually destroying your favorite game?
Sometimes destructive behavior isn't even intentional. It's time to take a look at it all!

No Prisoners, No Mercy - Show 190
Welcome to Show 190 of the No Prisoners, No Mercy Show.
 
We start out the show by talking about whether reviews really matter - case in poin Mass Effect: Andromenda. Next we take a look at what really goes into making a video game from the standpoint of someone who made them for decades. Are we holding videogames to unreasanable standards?  We also take a look who has an effect on the videogame market as opposed to who thinks they do, and why.
 
Articles Discussed:

Main topics of conversation:

1.      Mass effect andromeda – do reviews matter?

2.      What really goes into making a game – a professional viewpoint

3.      Who has an effect on the videogame market vs. who thinks they do
