362: The Game Deflators E356 | Silksong Is Breaking the Industry & Critical Role Ditches Daggerheart?

In this week’s episode of The Game Deflators, John and Ryan dive into their latest pickups—from video games to spicy new Magic: The Gathering cards—and share updates on what’s been dominating their playtime lately. But the real chaos begins with the ripple effect of Hollow Knight: Silksong’s release date announcement, as developers scramble to dodge the indie titan’s shadow.
The duo also break down Critical Role’s Season 4 decision to stick with Dungeons & Dragons over their own system, Daggerheart. What does this mean for the future of actual play content and tabletop publishing?
And finally, strap in for a high-octane discussion of Twisted Metal on the PS1. Does the vehicular mayhem still hold up, or has nostalgia taken the wheel?
