We’re back and Blake and Saveun have a lot to rant about. They’ve both been playing Cyberpunk and they both really wanted to like it, but the game had other ideas. Nick is fascinated by the game-design issues

Saveun and Blake get straight into the Cyberpunk talk. They’ve only played a few hours so there’s no major spoilers. We also talk about our favorite games we’ve played in 2020.

Saveun’s been studying Cyber Punk trailers and checking in on Call of Duty. Blake's been studying resource graphs in Anno 1800 and finding more Korok seeds in Zelda. While Nick returns to a PoE item mystery.

We talk a little about Last of Us with very minor spoilers. We get into the new Xbox announcements, Nick is not impressed with Halo, Saveun is impressed with Forza, and Blake wants to be impressed with Fable.

Our four Heroes awaken in a strange room with no memory of how they got there. Could this be some kind of test? Could the answer be, setting the room on fire?
