Episode notes

I don't know if they have a like in Dark Souls where you can go back down to level one and then build again. I think that would be so fun. These gamified systems are going to get so good that they're going to kill us. We're going to use carrots and work out too much and study exactly and spend too much time with friends. It became actual content you could buy. And I've listened to it. It was really cute because it was the mammoth storyline. The writing was just so like so one note, but it was so fun to watch nonetheless and listen to. Very, very cool.
