Description

Friendships are so precious. Video games never get tired of emphasizing that. Aside from reminiscing about the friends we made with fictional characters, we also discuss the absurd albeit necessary tendency to quantify friendships.

In our side quests, we discuss the recent settlement of one of the lawsuits against Activision Blizzard and catch up with announcements in the recent Nintendo Direct, including the cast of the Super Mario movie.
