PLEASE NOTE:There were issues during our stream when recording this episode. As a result, there is a small break midway through the audio and also the last ~15-20 mins of the episode got truncated. We saved all of the episode (with the exception of the last couple mins), so it should play normally, but with a sudden break at the end due to audio lost so some parts of the Gamescom conversation will be missing. Regardless, we wanted to provide you with the discussions that we were able to save.

We appreciate your patience and understanding with this situation.
