More Andrew on the podcast! (I'm allowed to say that, right?)

I agree Andrew is great on the podcast, although he forgot to say whether you're allowed to pause the game in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. I do very much like the parenting perspective on gaming. And I have to try Mini Motorways!

+1 to this! Also dug TheHarpoMarxist's cheeky energy on this ep.

Thanks all! I appreciate the warm reception of my guest appearance

Yes, Kirby in couch co-op has pausing very much available Oh, the times we've had to pause for one kid or another to run off and grab something, who can't bear to miss even the slightest overworld navigation Pausing is basically essential when playing with my kids (or even playing with my kids nearby).

Yay, Anti! Great perspective and analysis. You're a natural and fit right in.

If anyone wants more Anti chatter, he sometimes drops by Rocket League chat on the GWJ Discord.

For me, the most disappointing part of Diablo: Immortal is just how overwhelmingly similar to Diablo 3. There's new content, of course, and there's all this mobile garbage, which is annoying, but fine. But gameplay and mechanics are really similar to D3, and that's kinda sad. They didn't make a Diablo game from a mobile game. They made a mobile game from D3. Still kinda fun, though.

I really wanted to try Diablo Immortal, but I ran into an issue - I haven't signed into Battle net in years and in that time, ended up with a new PC and new phone - which because I installed and linked the authenticator on my old phone, Blizzard wants me to send them a copy of my driver's license to remove the authenticator - something I am not willing to do at this point.

Maybe when Diablo 4 comes out but not for a iPhone gave that seems more interested in my money than my entertainment

Oh well.
