Welcome to another episode of Game Informer's weekly podcast! This week, Dan Tack joins the show to explain why he's so impressed by Nioh and how the game compares to Dark Souls. After that, Kyle Hilliard talks a bit about Yoshi's best game in years... even if it is just a port. Then Kimberley Wallace rounds out the show with a heapin' helpin' of "Tales of" and Kingdom Hearts talk. We're also joined in the final stretch by a former writer at Obsidian, Eric Fenstermaker to talk about working on Fallout: New Vegas, writing South Park: The Stick of Truth with Matt Stone and Trey Parker, and also the legendary, cancelled Aliens RPG from Sega.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
