Melonmancy Podcast

Wizards and watermelons! We play tabletop, video games, and talk about those things + more on our podcast. No filter.

Got another job for you 621, I'm sending you episode 75 of the Melonmancy Podcast. Give it a listen.

How can a single year in videogames have so many bangers? Come one come all for an Armored Core veteran's first impressions of AC6, and an Armored Core newcomer's take on the whole game. Dielan will catch up and finish up the game before the next episode, time doesn't grow on trees. Also what is DE smoking with Warframe 1999?

Our boy Vic couldn't make again, so you're stuck with @dielan@shitposter.club and @skooma_dealer@shitposter.club instead

We are living in a world where we now have to ask if the games blogger that wrote that shitty article you just read is an AI or just an idiot.

Welcome to the KotakuIsOverParty, today we're going to make fun of some articles, give Steam Deck first impressions, and more!

Our boy Vic couldn't make it today, so you're stuck with @dielan@shitposter.club and @skooma_dealer@shitposter.club instead.

Ladies and gentlemen of the court of public opinion, welcome to the trial of Ralph Panebianco

This episode is super delayed to get edited. In this episode we give a detailed first impression of Final Fantasy 16, as well as break down with evidence why ShillUp is totally wrong about this game.

This episode took so long to edit because Dielan went on to finish the game before editing the episode. Just could not put it down.

(Dielan is also the editor)

This episode was supposed to come out last week oops

In today's episode (recoded June 6th) The Sony State of Play just happened and today's contoverseys with Twitch and Reddit had only just started. You can expect updates on those topics in our next episode since things got so much worse after we recorded this. You can also expect our usual ramblings about what we saw at the Sony show, including this bastard of a Marathon reboot. Also fuck Konami.

In today's episode (recorded May 19th, running a little late on this one) Vic comes up for air with first impressions of the new Zelda game. Dielan recaps his recent vacation and we otherwise shoot the shit like normal. It's going to be a great year for fighting games!

We're all about finding the best narratives in video games in pretty unexpected places

Vic is back and there's lots of news to cover. In this episode we lament on upcoming vidya games coming out we're looking forward to and what our immediate plans are to play them. Unlike the bloggers at Kotaku, we actually like video games, so get excited!

We promised we wouldn't spend so much time editing these episodes so they would come out on time but our hottakes on this one needed to be extra crisp.

Vast majority of this episode is weighing in on the recent release of Hogwarts Legacy, for the sake of the listeners in 2030 binging our show like some kind of nerd time-capsule we even explained the context!
