No Chores in Vice City

from The Scroll Hosted by LilacBoots

This week on The Scroll, LilacBoots and Frank Grouch tackle a massive week of gaming news and showcase reveals! First up, the crew breaks down the Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay reveal—calling out the Netflix trailer paywall, 30 FPS console locks, rehashed mechanics, and why mandatory relationship upkeep in an open-world crime sim feels like The Sims 4: Lovestruck chores. Then, they dive headfirst into Gamescom in Cologne, Germany, unloading a stacked Steam wishlist featuring Graveyard Keeper 2, RollerCoaster Tycoon Wonderworks, ANANTA, Stage Tour, Clutch, SPINE, and Nivalis Nights. After the break, Boots delivers a fiery "Boots to the Face" double-drop on the inexcusable overnight laptop theft at Gamescom (Mimic) and Sony’s tone-deaf digital licensing email. Plus: backlog check-ins on Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced, Midnight Suns, and a look at Xbox's infamous "cheeky" controller! 🎧 Listen now on your favorite podcast app or visit: getthescroll.com
