allure. You know what, I've been in a bit of a bubble recently. With these being my final episodes, I've been so focused on tying up loose ends,

0:35.6

continuing franchises that I've grown up with over the years,

0:38.1

doing the episodes that I never had the chance to do,

0:40.0

that honestly I've been missing out on some of the newer games that have been coming out
