Lethal Company, Phasmophobia, Content Warning: Defining a Genre - SNGP 99

While being pleased that sales of Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics are off to a hot start, David Radd took an, ahem, journey under water with Abzû and played the surprisingly dour Bayonetta 3 and wonders if the series can even continue.  Meanwhile, Tuesday took their final boomer shooter detour into Dusk where they got all the quicksaving and finding keys they could ever want and tried out Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, where Psaro is set up to be a villain right from the start.   Xbox president Matt Booty is now saying that leadership change led to Tango Gameworks closure while Sony updates the PlayStation Portal to connect to public Wi-Fi and Capcom purchases Minimum Studios and the Resident Evil VII director is given the same role for the next Resident Evil.  In labor news, Bethesda Montreal files for unionization and SAG-AFTRA announces a fourth tier to the indie development contract.  For the topic, David and Tuesday try to pin down a genre for Phasmophobia, Lethal Company, and Content Warning while talking about the appeal of these games and how they could be potentially expanded out by a larger developer.
