Very knowledgeable
The hosts of Zero Brightness are very knowledgeable about horror game minutiae compared to a lot of other gaming podcasts and both are very listenable and personable. Episode quality can diverge wildly however. Ali is definitely the driving voice of the podcast and the way things proceed with the episodes are generally set by how he in particular likes it. If he likes the game and James doesn’t , the episode will mostly be about the game’s positives with James occasionally chiming is to complain. If he hates a game and James likes it it can be almost impossible to listen to because how much he hates it will completely dominate their discussion with only the most passive challenging. I will also say the majority of episodes that are more recent feel much more scattershot and less in depth than their old content. Basically when it’s at its best it’s a good game they both really like and they are really fun to listen to, but disagreements really derail this podcast and can make some episodes soul sucking in nature. I definitely recommend giving it a listen, but stick to less controversially rated games

It was very clear for several episodes that host Ali was just not feeling it for a bit. At that point I nearly stopped listening but instead allowed...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to Zero Brightness for about two years now. It has become more dynamic over the years and has grown from a podcast I look to for game reviews into a deep dive into themes across all forms of horror. I have been put on to some of the best movies, games, and music all from this...Read full review »
