Eh! Steve! What about them VGA 2021 Nominees?
Half an hour into this episode my Internet dropped, causing the stream to stop and then restart halfway through. Quite the delightful little technical issue to have on your second attempted streamed podcast.
I am mostly fine with this episode. However, being locked up with Covid and taking care of Covid-infected family members leaves one with a desperate desire to communicate with friends comfortably. Part of that comfort comes with a loss of inhibition and consideration, and as such I had to fight myself to keep from being overly snarky and demeaning of the typical Video Game Award nomination choices. Most of all, however, was the digression at the end, which is a far more sensitive topic than I feel it could have been treated. In its own podcast with its own time I feel we could have illustrated a more informed and level-headed perspective on.
Nonetheless, I think we will have that opportunity in time. I also think I will be free to stream more often now, and will be putting a schedule together shortly. I also hope to revive this blog a little bit, so please be patient. I’m trying to get back into the swing of things after a tumultuous month.
