The Weekly Stuff #281 – Super Dragon Ball Heroes, Anthem Woes, DBZ 30th Blu-ray, Gaming Controversies & More

from Purely Academic with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman · host Jonathan R. Lack & Sean Chapman

It’s a packed show this week, as we give impressions of Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission, the first English localization of the Japanese card battle sensation, discuss Kotaku’s bombshell report on the troubled development of Bioware’s Anthem, break down all the problems with Funimation’s dubious new Dragon Ball Z 30th Anniversary Blu-ray set, and weigh in on the very stupid controversies currently miring the video game discourse – namely, whether games like Sekiro should have difficulty options, and what effect the Epic Games Store is having on the PC market. We also reach peak bafflement in our ongoing confusion over the existence and content of the musical Cats, go over some strange Nintendo rumors, and much more.
