“pronouns are confusing” bro literally what is this

This week we take a break from the usual let's-play format for a wide-ranging deep dive into the source material for the first arc of the Megaten Franchise, the Digital Devil Story light novels. Spoilers, they're not great and make us feel weird.

Shouts out Tiffany Pollard if you're listening. We Love New York.

Surprise, it's the book episode! The back half of Kyuuyaku really suffers from the lack (see: a supermassive black hole) of narrative so we dive head-first into the kiddie pool that is the Digital Devil Story light novels to try to make sense of all of it, from ritual magick and Whitesnake, to cyber...

Justin is on ZB again this week talkin’ Hyper Light Drifter and such!

A new episode is out now! Episode 93 is a love letter to Hyper Light Drifter, a game that unexpectedly perfects the "super hard post-apocalyptic ambient hack and slash" genre that has rose to prominence on the strength of games like Dark Souls, Breath of the Wild and Nier. Joined by returning guest Justin, we break down how HLD delivers on the promise of those games in a way that is more fun and emotionally resonant while also delivering an amazing aesthetic experience. Also discussed: buying a GPU at a Burger King, the fear of death, difficulty in games and soundtrack recommendations. Links to listen and more at zerobrightness.com

Episode 6 is out (yesterday)!!! This week it really begins to set in exactly how vast and ultimately empty of a world we’ve found ourselves in, and that we simply must turn to the power of friendship to this one through.

Posi vibes gang, DDP loves you.

Episode incoming in a few, lost audio catch-up in da past, goin 2 bed, jobs done :)

19/01/2021

We're still feeling the after-effects of losing and re-recording a bunch of voiceover so today's episode is going to be coming out super late in the day as opposed to the usual wee hours of the morning.

Cheers 😈

Thinking about the timeline where we chose to start with the famicom game instead of the super famicom game.

12/01/2021

It’s Kaiju BUG!!! Episode 4 is out and we prove once and for all we aren’t du*****es by talking about dice-roll math and narrative devices. I even say the word “diagetic”!

We lost about 4 hours of unedited voiceover via an inexplicable computing snafu last week so, as of right now, I'm re-editing together episode 4 in it's entirety. I just want you to know that I love you and the episode will still be up tomorrow. Thank.

One of our mutual favorite shows is back with a new format for 2021, and Justin is on this week as part of a chat about co-op horror games and RE5! Check it out if you f**k with the vision 😈

I got tired of waiting so it's out early: Zero Brightness returns with the start of a new season and a new format for the show! Episode 91 finds Ali joined by returning guests Monica and Vincent (as well as new friend Justin) for an examination of co-op horror games including Resident Evil 5, Obscure, and Phasmophobia. We also take a look at the pre-history of multiplayer RE games, examine the weirdly racist and misogynistic tone of 00s-era survival horror and discuss the current state (and future of) the podcast. Better get started, it’s a pretty long ep. Links to listen and more at zerobrightness.com

Had a couple of audio hiccups this week but the FIXED version of Episode 3 is out! Come along for the ride as we wax poetic about DBZ filler episodes and do our best to get outta the first dungeon. As always let us know if we aren't showing up on your platform of choice yet and maybe give us a lil' ol' rate n' review idk see ya next week.

Apparently we’re still unsearchable on Google Podcasts so for the time being here’s a direct link if ya need it!!!

Friends, band-mates, co-workers, and former room-mates Brent & Justin skip arm in arm through the Megaten universe, in serialized installments, while bumbling through discussions about music, giant robot anime, giddeo tames, worker’s rights, and chaos magick.

Can you imagine if this was the type of account to be like “plz phantom thieves you must infiltrate Mitch McConnell’s palace” instead of “better come with the arms cuz we ain’t throwin hands”
