Bad End 14: Death and the apocalypse, but with great gamefeel

Kyle's still out honeymooning, but we have special guest and GQ
writer Joshua Rivera (@jmrivera02) to talk real smart about
games, god help us. We've been playing visual novels and some
sub-2-hour games, so dive into some stuff that you can get
through pretty quickly. Then, in our discussion of The Discourse
Of The Week, we talk loot boxes and the "death" of single-player
games.
