In today's episode, we (after a lengthy hiatus) are back and we have hot takes! We talk through our most seemingly controversial gaming opinions. As always, we end with the games we're playing (Returnal, Age of Empires III, PSVR2, Kerbal Space Program 2). This episode was recorded in March 2023. Royalty free music from BenSound.
