Ep.18 – 2020 - Year In Review

In 2020, the pandemic turned gaming into a lifeline, and we closed the year by reflecting on our play.

We revisited backlogs beaten during lockdown, from The Witness to Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and highlighted multiplayer titles that carried us through long nights—Phasmophobia, Rocket League, and GTA V. Rob championed Seven Days to Die as his hidden gem, while Dave praised Maneater, the shark RPG nobody expected to enjoy. We also shared disappointments, from Cyberpunk 2077’s messy launch to Rocket League’s most hated arena.
