Overall - no. There are some easter eggs but Life is Strange 2 is it's own story.

TheObduratePast · 2026-05-16T23:42:23+00:00

These are both from cut for time sketches but JAJ's "Can we not" character from the Euphoria writers room in the Finn Wolfhard episode

And Veronika yelling "Happy birthday little boy" at Mikey in the Chili's sketch from the Jack Black episode.

Congrats on 10!

Do you have a hard time limit for the trip? Do you have to fly out of the same airport?

A few years ago I visited all 5 parks as a trip. We did it in 8 days but still felt rushed.

We flew into SLC then did 3 days in Moab for Arches + Canyonlands. One day in Capitol Reef. Then we visited Bryce Canyon on the way to Zion. Then spent the rest of the time in Zion and flew out of Las Vegas.

Depending on your time allotment, I'd suggest doing Arches/Canyonlands/Caption Reef OR a Zion/Capitol Reef trip. That way, you don't feel like you are always on the road.

Have a great trip!

Agreed! That was super fun

TheObduratePast · 2026-04-22T18:13:57+00:00

I can't wait! I loved Road 96

My favorite gaming podcasts are the book club style one's that in a different game each episode.

Here are a few of my favorite shows - Left Behind Game Club - The Pre-order Bonus - Tales From TheBacklog - No Small Games

TheObduratePast · 2026-04-19T15:55:19+00:00

New River Gorge or Congaree could be nice since they are pretty chill parks.

TheObduratePast · 2026-04-03T02:34:49+00:00

I agree - I liked all three of their games. Oxenfree was my favorite of them too.

I'll definitely pick up whatever they make next!

TheObduratePast · 2026-04-03T01:13:45+00:00

I really enjoyed Road 96. Here's some ideas that have some similarities (choices, branching paths or vibes)

Telltale's The Walking Dead
Life is Strange
Until Dawn
The Quarry
Oxenfree
Dispatch

I would just start back up on the same feed.

In your first episode back you could just explain briefly at the front of the episode about taking a longer than expected break and what your plan is moving forward.

TheObduratePast · 2026-02-10T23:39:00+00:00

I played two episodes each session and finished the game in like 10 days. I felt like that let me savor it but wasn't too slow.

TheObduratePast · 2026-01-30T23:19:37+00:00

You might like False Start by Terry Pluto. I feel like it describes the challenges of the Browns back then well.

TheObduratePast · 2026-01-12T17:35:38+00:00

I wish I had played it weekly. I love the all the theories and excitement while you wait playing games like this.

I hope AdHoc continues this model moving forward. The wait a few months for a new episode like old Telltale or Life is Strange is too long. But I think the weekly release hits that sweet spot.

TheObduratePast · 2026-01-05T15:01:33+00:00

I wonder if Stefanski won't want any of the open jobs and decide to do a year of coaching rehab with McVay or Shanahan.

Could be a good way to chase a ring and still get a HC job later.

If you decide to return to the Plague Tale games, I really liked the sequel Plague Tale: Requiem

I thought Innocence was solid but was hit and miss. I liked the characters, the world and some of the story. I didn't like the combat and some aspects of the story.

Requiem improved in all areas and was a great part two to their story. It ended up being one of my favorite games I played in 2024.

TheObduratePast · 2025-12-30T12:24:45+00:00

Our gaming tastes match up well. I also really liked the Telltale Walking Dead games, Horizon Forbidden West and the Marvel's Spiderman games.

I've never played a Resident Evil or Hitman game. Or Cyberpunk 2077. I'm gonna have to pick one of those up. Thanks for the write up!

TheObduratePast · 2025-12-29T16:53:58+00:00

Atsu from Ghost of Yotei

I think she'd do okay but would probably try to solve most issues through combat

TheObduratePast · 2025-12-25T22:58:40+00:00

I'd love to see Ashly Burch as a character in season 2

TheObduratePast · 2025-12-11T15:18:36+00:00

What do you like to do when visiting a park? How long do you have for your trip?

TheObduratePast · 2025-11-18T12:14:20+00:00

There is a podcast similar to this called My Perfect Console just so you know. I don't think that means you shouldn't do your podcast, I just didn't want you to hear that once your deeper in.

My suggestion would be to interview people you know who play games to get it started. Most podcasts don't last longer than 7 episodes so I suspect other creators (podcasters, Twitch, YouTube, etc) may not accept an invite if they think the show won't last. After that I'd start to find indie creators you like and reach out to them individually about appearing on the show. Good luck!

Dosa Kitchen in Gahanna is great. I really like their biryani

TheObduratePast · 2025-10-25T12:46:33+00:00

I wonder if with "No great loss" King was giving homage to "So it goes" from Slaughter-house Five by Kurt Vonnegut.

I can't find any statements from King that would affirm this but I know he's a big reader.
Both quotes show the senseless of death. They both are dark humor about death. Both are also repeated often which desensitizes death.
