The Big Topic: The legality of fan games like Project AM2R
Further Discussion: The polarizing beauty of No Man's Sky
What we’re into: Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy 15

COO of Bithell Games Alexander Sliwinski joins us this week for a jam-packed podcast full of intelligent discussion, surprising revelations, and '90s slow-jams. We open the show discussing Project AM2R - the recently released/DMCA'd Metroid fan remake which spent nearly a decade in development  - along with the legality of creating fan projects like this and whether the have a chance to exist in the 21st century. We move right along into a deep dive into No Man's Sky - aka the cilantro of video games - and close out talking about Kingsglaive, the cinematic feature-length tie-in for Final Fantasy 15. And… it's actually good? What?
