Here we talk about fail states, death, and game saves.

Our very first bonus episode, recording from the floor of Dreamhack ATX 2018 across three days. You're welcome.

We spent three days stumbling around Dreamhack. Then we sat down and recorded us talking about it for like, at least an hour. Maybe a bit longer. You're welcome.

Back and forth about: The Rockets (also not a sports podcast) PubG vs Fortnite (lawsuits!) Lineage II (the grind is real) Ultima 7 Technomancer Wasteland 2 / Baldur's Gate 2 Tekken 7 (training!) DreamHack (this weekend!) ...and more.
