Only Time Will Tell

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: From Pong To PixelsEpisode Title: Only Time Will TellEpisode #7You are listening to From Pong To Pixels the podcast with your host(s) Andrew.In this episode of From Pong To Pixels the Podcast we discuss: games released during the 2020s, a popular movie that came out, and my struggle with Mario Galaxy.<h2>Segment 1: From Comeback To wait what</h2>Hello everyone, my name is Andrew and welcome to another episode of From Pong To Pixels. Sorry I’ve been gone for so long, I just finished my holiday break. But I’m glad to be back recording another episode for you guys. If you remember last episode, I had a guest on to talk about games in the 2000s. This episode I plan to cover some games that have been released during the 2020s. It probably won’t be much, considering we’re only 4 years in, but there are still things to cover. So I’m just going to get right into it starting with Fall Guys, released in 2020. Fall Guys is a platform battle royal game published by Epic Games. During 2020, Fall Guys didn’t really get talked about for long. It had made its way around social media, but it was only for a couple weeks. This was mostly because it wasn’t free to play. Its price upon release was $20 on Steam, an extremely popular platform for people to download games on. Now being free to play wasn’t the only reason, another one being how it didn’t work too well on the Nintendo Switch. At the time, only a couple big streamers were playing Fall Guys. But something no one expected happened, Fall Guys became trending again in mid-2022, due to the fact it became free. Everywhere you went you’d see people playing or watching Fall Guys. Even I tried out the game at one point, and although I wasn’t good, I still had fun. So if you’re looking for a fun multiplayer game to play with your friends, I’d definitely recommend Fall Guys. Now, these next two games I didn’t really want to cover, but I feel I have to because they are pretty popular. The first of these games is called Genshin Impact. Genshin Impact is an action RPG released in 2020. It follows the player having to travel a world they’ve never seen before to find their lost sibling. Now I don’t really know much about this game, but I’m sure you’ve heard of it, whether it’s from good or bad. The game features an anime-style open-world environment and an action-based battle system. Now if you’ve heard of this game, it’s probably either from the huge amount of ads for it, or things about its community. The developers behind this game are also not the best either, showing either hints of racism in its character designs, or using AI-generated art. As for the actual game itself, I can’t say much about it because I haven’t played or watched much of it. Another problem people have with the game is that it can feel like a lot of grinding. I’ve played games before that can feel like they’re dragging on and that there’s a lot of grinding, so I can understand the frustration. Now if you want to try out this game, be my guest, I’m not trying to get people to not play it, I’m just stating what I found when I researched info about the game. I’d recommend avoiding the community around it though, some of the things they do can be considered problematic or just flat-out weird. But hey, if the visuals and gameplay really stand out and look interesting to you, don’t be scared to give it a try. Just try not to tell anyone that you play it.<h2><span style="background-color:...
