Episode notes

The Diablo 3 had just an notorious launch, terrible launch, and then got, became a very, very good game. There's some stuff here that I love, like Mario Kart 8, that would go on to have better versions with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. And then Hearthstone, and Divinity Original Sin. Which... Yeah.
