Questions from Discord:
Brydude: What do you think about the release of Astro Bot; do you think it’s a GotY contender? Do you guys enjoy the game? Should Sony continue releasing single-player story games instead of live-service games? Are you excited on playing Episode Aigis?
campfire_knight: 1) What is your most anticipated game that as of yet has no release date? 2) What would be the most out-of-left-field remake you would be excited for? For me, the answers are: 1) Mina The Hollower and 2) LoZ 2: Adventure of Link.
What we’re playing:
Mary: Dragon Age Origins, Luigi’s Mansion 2 ✅, PAX West stuff, maybe I will play Astro Bot
John: Visions of Mana, Dragon Quest III, Cosmic Fantasy Collection
Greg: Mostly nothing.
Brett L: Star Wars: Outlaws
Brett M: It Takes Two, Star Wars: Outlaws
