🕑 Added 2025-10-08 07:00:08 +0000 UTCWhat do you call it when a sequel to a beloved game improves on almost everything? What do you call it when that's not enough?
Discussed: Brendon’s return, our experience with Digimon, the email song, dreaming of Scarlet Nexus 2, Digimon Story: Time Stranger, the name of the halloween segment, Strange Antiquities, the current state of mouse mode, Unfair Flips, probability in games, Silent Hill f, Hades II, the A2 effect
