Episode 33 - Business Casual Gamers and the Bro Shooter

Business Casual Gamers

For many of us Business Casual Gamers, the traditional, online first-person shooter—lovingly referred to as the “bro shooter”— isn’t really our cup of tea. What once used to be rewarding and fun has now devolved into pure frustration. There is, however, an upside to this harrowing tale: there are still many great first-person, single player experiences that are well worth the price of admission. In this episode Aaron and Chris lament what has become of the modern first-person shooter, describing the multiple factors that have caused them to pull away from the online scene. The gamers couple this discussion with a list of exceptional games that fit into our BCG world well. In the assignments segment, Chris describes his time with PS VR, and Aaron shares his thoughts on Odin Sphere Leifthrasir. Intro music provided by sawsquarenoise. Used with permission.
