#124 Do we like hype cycles more than games?
This was recorded in a world before Silksong, so please excuse Chris' dunks on the Silksong community. He has since played 8 hours of it and thinks it's good. However, for years before it's release every gaming show would have the same meme. Where's Silksong? We've seen this with other games over time as well. Where's Half-Life 3? Where's Shenmue 3? What's Randy Pitchford doing on that bathroom floor? Sometimes we have to wonder, are we excited about the actual games, or are we just excited about being excited about games? Also in this episode, Moriarty tells us what PAX was like this year.
