We reflect on the whimsical world of gaming in 2024 with guests Matthew Bliss, and Alyxa. We share hilarious anecdotes about our most questionable in-game actions, from wild NPC interactions to bizarre character fixations. And our discussion touches on the impact of player agency in multiplayer experiences and highlights the memorable chaos that arises from emergent gameplay.
