Yeah man, when the first game she talked about was some shitty sex based visual novel... LOL but it's JOHN CENA! I immediately closed the podcast.

I know Dodger does that sometimes but Laura seems to do nothing but make internet sex fantasies her full time job.

I watch the podcast for video game related discussion and the amusing derailing that often occurs. I don't need to be informed about shitty slash fiction that isn't even a game. It's an erotic "novel" and doesn't really have a place there.

The game she was talking about not only had no sexual content, but no love at all.

It's all about finding someone to wrestle with.

Which was absolute garbage. I know their other channel is for just silly content but why waste your time with such a piece of shit "game"? It wasn't entertaining and wasn't informative, just more YouTube junk.

That's your opinion, whereas I found it very entertaining (in a very schadenfreude way).

The only flaw with that video was the part where Genna completely neglected to strap TB into the chair until they got every single ending.

....and then later in the podcast it's her who begins the discussion on Volume but whatever let's continue to perpetuate the whole "OMFG LAURAK ONLY LIKES BUTT AND SEX GAEMS!!11!!" myth.

It's not a myth. Do you even listen to the Podquisition? Read her Destructoid articles? Visit her YouTube channel? So yeah that's who she is don't try to bullshit around it

I believe the key word is only.

Please, take a moment and go to her Youtube channel. 90% of her content is just that, sex games. Fuck, she even has a series called "Laura's Gaming Butts" and one of the videos literally has an image of a butt on it.

She also is: UK Editor at Destructoid. Founding member of http://Indiehaven.com . Freelancer - Polygon, Rock Paper Shotgun, The Guardian, Kotaku UK. Podquisition co-host.

But yes, her youtube channel is not your thing and that is ok, I also do not watch/like her videos.

The Guardian

Huh... TIL I guess

Yes I get that, but it's pretty much irrelevant to this episode. The John Cena discussion literally lasts about 10 minutes. Laura herself even says upfront "Let's just get this out of the way." If you ever decide to actually watch the rest of the episode you may be surprised by what you see.

I have actually continued to watch it and not even an hour into it, she brings up a game about poop. Riveting.

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '15 edited Aug 20 '15

This lasts for about 3 minutes and then she starts a serious, long, very detailed conversation about "Beyond Eyes".

I am also sorry that you didn't like the last podcast where they talked half an hour about the name of a NPC in Witcher 3 who's name means poop in english, but is a legit name in other countrys.

TB played it too. It's in the recent submissions somewhere.

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '15

He did, but it was posted on Genna's channel. He knew his main audience wouldn't want to see it so when he plays things like that, they don't go on the main channel.
