From legendary heroes like Link, Kratos, and Geralt to unforgettable villains like Sephiroth, Wesker, and even that damn Duck Hunt dog, Chris and Paul dive into the characters who shaped gaming history. In this episode of High Level Chronicles, the guys debate what makes a true hero, why some villains are so iconic, and whether every bad guy deserves a redemption arc.

Episode 054: Patch Notes: Our Personal Updates
In this “emotionally patched” episode, Chris and Paul roll out personal patch notes like it’s a major game update — except instead of fixing FPS drops, they’re fixing life habits.
The Leveled Up segment delivers peak stoner-gamer chaos, from spending hours making naked elf characters to rage quitting Mario Kart over a blue shell from a 6-year-old. Then the guys share their own bug fixes, like Chris changing his Black Myth skill tree to finally wreck a boss in one try, and Paul discovering rowing as his joint-friendly cardio after a nasty knee injury.
New features include journaling to calm insomnia brain loops, more protein in their diets to protect muscle gains, and building a dual-purpose home drum and workout studio. The High Court wraps up debating whether you should be able to publish patch notes on other people — spoiler: it depends if you like drama.
