As far as the topics we did discuss we talked a bit about Monster Hunter Stories 2 on the Nintendo Switch and how I apparently completely misunderstand the genre of that game. Tam talks a bit about returning to Star Trek Online years later and the pattern of play that the game has fallen into. We also go down a list of games that have quietly been holding on with a steady player base but get very little fanfare. Kodra talks about his experience streaming Celeste and invites everyone to participate in those streams. We close out the show with a discussion about Cyberpunk 2077 because Tam decided to give it a shot and Bel feels at least partially vindicated. It is a mixed bag of a game but an extremely interesting one.
