In this episode, Ryan expounds on the idea of the statless curse, that ineffable essence of something just being wrong, whether it's the dwarven gold, or the too-easy dungeon maze. There just has to be a curse here somewhere, doesn't there?

Iteration 082 - Fakeumentary and Machinical Magicery

Direct download link is here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/thesimulationist/Iteration_082_-_Fakeumentary.mp3

We invent the terms podcastahedron and agentific. Josh finally watches The Desolation of Smaug.
Somehow we end up talking about the next Star Wars movies. Ryan and Josh discuss their creative
projects. Ryan reports on History Channel's Cryptid the Swamp Beast, and asks why it's a
fakumentary instead of a traditional drama. Then, machines versus magic, magic versus technology.
