Ep. 6 - Such Indie Death

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 the most boring football game in recent memory. Let's hear it for the Cleveland Browns, though!

In this episode:

Jonathan plays Dishonored 2 the fun, stealthy way.

Logan piles on the hate for Leon from Resident Evil 2.

We talk about two EA published, futuristic shooters- Respawn's Apex Legends and Bioware's Anthem- and what playing them is like.

Jonathan sheds a bit of light on Wargroove, the spiritual Advance Wars successor from Chucklefish.

Lastly, we cover some of the dark side behind the upcoming Activision-Blizzard layoffs.
