June 4, 2016 This episode, the Weekenders discuss a favorite topic: the push and pull between tight, well-constructed scenarios and wide-open rulesets. How open is an open-world game, after all, and how open should it be? Elsewhere, we discuss sexy characters, comedy that takes on mental illness with sensitivity, and the very strange sci-fi/action/romance of The Adjustment Bureau.

Discussed: Hearts of Iron IV, The Witcher 3, Far Cry 2, Far Cry 4, The Adjustment Bureau, Justified, Super Hyper Cube, Lady Dynamite, The Maria Bamford Show
