SSU Special Episode - Eric and Brian Q&A, 202614 mai 202601:39:57

We're doing something a little different this week! We sat down together to answer questions from you, our audience! Want to watch us talk instead of just listening? Check out the youtube version: HERE

We also squeeze in some ZZZ discussion at the very end.

 

It's a little different and we hope you like it - we will be back to our regularly scheduled ZZZ discussion in our next episode on 5/28.

22: S1 Knockout, Part 1: Swords, Looks, and Books15 mai 202501:34:18

It's our Season 1 end-of-season spectacular! We're celebrating the only way we know how:  by ruthlessly, and with increasingly flawed logic, winnowing down Season 1's S-Rank Agents to find out who is number 1 (and 2, and 3).

This is part 1 of our knockout bracket, the finale will be out for our regularly scheduled next episode on 5/29.

Also, all rankings are completely subjective and that Eric and Brian are, objectively, morons... with poor tastes.

We'll see you for part 2, releasing 5/29!

Season one of ZZZ is coming to a close and we're excited to talk through its denouement! We're discussing Vivian, Vlad's story, Yixuan's agent teaser, and how the story's been put together to be put together.

 

Spoiler Warning: We discuss the newest story beats from 23:05 until, like, 43 minutes. Honestly, play the new story first, y'all, it's really good.

19: Poisson d'Avril!03 avr. 202501:05:54

Trigger?! I barely even knew- ah, you get where we're going.

 

It's April Fool's (I mean... it's not, but that's not going to stop Brian) and we've pulled out all the stops! To keep from spiraling over the lack of Trigger on their accounts, Eric and Brian are filling the time with the rambling discussions and vague advice you've come to know and love.

 

In this episode: new story discussion, Trigger analysis, Q&A with Eric and Brian, (at least) three April Fool's pranks, and the first installment of a new segment dedicated to a member of our Discord community!

 

Spoiler Warning: We discuss the newest story beats from 8:20 until 12:30

14: In Defense of Simplicity23 janv. 202500:20:41

Astra Yao is here and she highlights a key element to what makes the design of ZZZ so interesting: simplicity.

 

Brian's not able to record this week, so it's a solo day for Eric. Apologies for the short episode, we should be back to our usual nonsense by next recording.

13: Dry... But Whole (A “Lore” Breakdown up to Now)10 janv. 202501:07:39

* SPOILER WARNINGS AHOY*

The first arc of ZZZ has finished, Miyabi’s power has been unleashed, and the SSU podcast is ready to dig into everything* we know so far. Join Eric and Brian as they set out to do a lore recap episode and instead end up hypothesizing wildly on the most tenuous of details.

* and by "everything," we mean what we can hastily chain to other ideas using push pins and red thread

1.4 is finally here and with it comes our new Miyabae. Eric and Brian discuss (okay... fawn) over our new cryo queen, break down some of the new end game systems, and reflect on how the team working on ZZZ continue to change and grow their game without losing their core inspiration.

11: Ad Astra, SSU!12 déc. 202400:51:19

1.4 is on the horizon and we need to talk about it. Eric and Brian discuss all the changes coming in ZZZ's soft-relaunch patch. New events, new characters, new areas, new endgame... everything's new except for our love of the game, which continues to grow.

 

Also, Eric apologizes for (still) being sick. He blames his kid. It's probably not his kid's fault, but since the child can't defend themselves... it's the kid's fault.
