In this week's news: Square Enix has indicated it wants to diversify itself and sell stakes in it's subsidiaries due to rising game development costs. Also, Xbox Series S is getting a memory bump so devs and players have a better in-game experience, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet get a Direct and new details on regions and Pokemon (like one that ferments things as it breaths?!?), and a player in Diablo Immortal can't play PvP because they spent too much on microtransactions. In Quest Markers, Diablo 4 alpha is showing to be promising, Nintendo says no new hardware this year, and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 is coming back in cabinet form next year!

Every week, Kyle and Travis settle in for a conversation that feels like hanging out in a friend's basement, dissecting the virtual worlds they love. Their The NPCs-Video Game Commentary, Video Game News, And More! is a weekly check-in from two self-proclaimed terrible gamers who are deeply invested in the culture and community surrounding their favorite pastime. You'll hear them unpack the titles they're actually playing, from the latest blockbusters to forgotten gems, and sift through the gaming news that actually matters to them. The discussion often meanders into the broader "video game life"-those funny, frustrating, and universally relatable moments that happen both on and off the screen. And yes, they might even circle back to their long-running, utterly unserious investigation into gaming's greatest mysteries, like the true parental lineage of a certain enigmatic figure in a trench coat. It's less about expert analysis and more about shared enthusiasm and genuine camaraderie. This podcast thrives on the unscripted tangents and personal anecdotes that come from two friends simply talking about what they enjoy, making each episode a casual and entertaining dive into the heart of gaming fandom.
