Seems like a lot more sex based jokes in the bombcast since the new crew, which is not what I expected out of Gerstmann leaving. Maybe his weird creep voice interludes were the rock lee weights the cast has dropped, but I hope the new horny jokes don't just become an all the time thing; plenty of places on the internet for games and sex to constantly collide.
On the flipside, the impact on models from the death of booth babes is not a thing I really thought much about; my sister did modeling as secondary income but she's never done events so I'm unsure how that whole scene was. The continued sexualization and dehumanization of women in the games industry really did need to be checked. but maybe our solution should be more lateral... booth boys! Big himbo energy! Thembos too! Let people see beautiful people of all configurations to guide them to new games. Ideally all with slightly more clothes than before.
I genuinely was surprised to hear folks say the parry in tunic is useless considering how liberally I used it! If you figure out the window it can trivialize some bossfights, projectile annoyances, there's at least one boss I don't think I'd have been able to get in on without parrying, too!

I find it really funny they don't know there's other JoJo podcasts out there since Jess VoidBuger's partner does one called Bizarre Podcast: Dogs Must Die which similarly has a JoJo neophyte in it.
y'know i know jeff g plays it up as doubling and tripling down on his hatred of majora's mask at this point, but it really does irritate me that he just like, doesn't even let anyone get to say anything positive about it and shuts them down. majora's mask did delightful things that made me invested in so much more of the detail in the world, and ocarina of time aged way more poorly to my mind. that game also carried what is for me my favourite tone in videogames of that era, and all of the music, artstyle, environment, and sound supported the whole of finding your hope and joy in the clutches of a miserable situation.
