Ep. 5 - "Old Blood" Mountain Dew

That Odious Beast, Gaming is a show about video games, the fans who play them, and the people who make them. This week, it's also about food, I think. Doordash is definitely mentioned.

In this episode:

Jonathan gets 'the bad ending' in Dishonored 2.

Logan reflects on the way Persona 5 subverts its own tropes.

Bloodborne ravages Logan's spatial understanding.

Metro: Exodus becomes an Epic Store exclusive and gets a price drop, angering some fans for... some reason...

And we talk about what's on tap for the next couple days.
