Soulless creations Vs Games with soul. Guess which one is better

All right. Time for us all to get on the same level of terminology. Sometimes I say that the game is soulless and it can't be judged appropriately. Yes, some games have nothing but a dream of a big corporation for a profit. Some games are designed like the soulless meat-grinder that can decide who is the very best of them all, and some games are full of soul.

Where is this thing come from? How do we catch it? I have no idea really. All I know is that you can have a game with a soul. But how can one do that - that's the question for this episode.

Saints Row 4, Quake 2: power fantasy doesn't always work

That was not an easy episode to make and I know that I took a lot of time to make it but I hope that it's all worth it in the end.

This time we get to the bottom of the power fantasy trope and we contemplate how bad is the power fantasy for the interactive media. Because I suppose it's not bad at all. It has its merit and doesn't deserve to be automatically shunned for being a power fantasy alone.

After all, what is fantasy without power in it?

Follow-up episode where we right our wrongs.

Sometimes it is good to stop what you're doing and look back. To rethink something and to admit that things have changed, you might have changed and your perspective changed. This is the episode where we do just that: we try and make things right. I talk about 3 major episodes in history of Duck in Games podcast:

1. Gamers who play games The anniversary 50-th episode of Duck in Games podcast

2. In space no one can hear you being bored The episode about Alien: Isolation

3. The first ever episode of Duck in games. Yes, we have come a long way.

And we take some time to correct most of the things that went wrong in those episodes. Or maybe just reinforce the statements with new knowledge we gained through the experience. Tune in to find out!

Duck in Games 39: Year in games. Duck version

Yeah. It's that one most wonderful time of the year when we all sit around and contemplate what the hell had happened. And this time it's not just me asking myself "what the hell was that" but everyone who survived the year. Was it that bad really though? I don't know. We had some good games and some pretty bad ones. But most importantly we had some time to play them (not me though I was working day job). And I hope that we have become more content with what we have and what we achieved. I wish you all to survive the upcoming year and have more interesting games in your life as well as more time to play them.

And you heard that right: Duck in Games is now part of Geeks Rising network. I am happy as Duck about it.
