The Electronic Wireless Show Podcast episode 158: the best spaceships in games specialDon’t worry, one of us mentions FTL
Don’t worry, one of us mentions FTL
In honour of the new DLC forOuter Wilds, this week on The Electronic Wireless Show Podcast we’re discussing our favourite spaceships in games. In the process, while we do discuss some games, there is quite a lot of chat about the origin of the spaceship as ‘space-house’ - the hub area where all your pals hang out - both in games and in wider space media. Also, Nate has a great Cavern Of Lies that is Star Wars themed, and does indeed give us a terrible fright.
Digressions this week are a big discussion on Matthew’s tooth situation, and a semi-argument about what planetary circumstances would be enough for me to agree to go into space (e.g. planet covered in really nice soup). Also: is Elon Musk’s divorce the origin story for Warhammer 40k?
