The following is an episode of With a Terrible Fate’s weekly podcast discussing video-game storytelling from all angles. Find all episodes here.


This week, we come to you with an update about the future trajectory of With a Terrible Fate’s podcast endeavors. In summary, we’re going to be working to retool our audio material around deep-dives into our written analytical content, as well as longer, less frequent explorations of the most fascinating topics concerning video games as a storytelling medium.

At the same time, Stefan will be stepping away to launch a new podcast focused more broadly on video game studies and culture; he’ll continue to be involved with With a Terrible Fate as an analyst, and we’re already looking forward to his first article.

Listen in for all the details, and we’re looking forward to more conversations with you in the weeks and months to come.
