Episode notes

outer wilds nitely would have won our game of the year that year, if i was physically able to play it at that's tough. I think secro was our pick for that luck. It had me howling with like, glee in a way, tha like beating a dark soul's boss a does a it it. That game is just so cool. And it unfolds in a way ad has a narrative that is compelling in a way that, like, metroyd hasn't done for me. Ah, i think it all just comes together to, i don't know, put together a package that is just really, really neat. and i like it.
