LIVE! Absinthe vs. The Talos Principle: A Most Distinguished Stream

This is the worst idea we’ve had since our last idea

You guys might recall (we sure as hell don’t) a month or so ago, Devolver Digital sent me and Bill an early build of Titan Souls and a couple large bottles of some sort of ale made by wizards or monks or something. Bill and I somehow managed to beat a couple of the extremely difficult bosses, and then uhh. I think I put on Hotline Miami and died repeatedly in the tutorial mission.

Today, we’re about to embark on a similar and equally stupid mission: we’re going to drink some Pernod (Absinthe Supérieure!) the way it’s meant to be served: with a golden spatula and some sugar cubes and little cups that look like bells, and we’re gonna be wearing neckties and playing The Talos Principle while we do it.

The Talos Principle, if you’re unfamiliar, is a philosophical first-person puzzle game from Croteam, the creators of the very stupid (but fun) Serious Sam series, and presumably, they got all the idiotic smashing of things out of their system, because Talos looks like a lot like Portal, but way more surreal, and with lots of pretty trees and stuff.

This’ll be happening LIVE at 2 PM Pacific (that’s two hours from now) on Twitch.TV/Destructoid
