The Baes that Got Away

As Rafiki says in The Lion King, “it is time.” We announce the winners to our first official giveaway! “Winners?” I hear you say with a puzzled look on your beautiful face. “But I remember clearly from last week’s episode that you used the singular to describe the number of winners there would be,” you point out. You are correct, dear listener, but there is a plot twist! Tab has generously donated a code to the pot, so we have two codes that we give away on this week’s episode! We would name the winners in the show notes here but we kind of want it to be a surprise for them. To everyone who entered, and especially those who wrote nice, supportive emails, thank you so much! It’s been so much fun giving away codes to a game we love. We have another giveaway to announce next week (for a physical PS5 game), so stay tuned for more info on that. As for this week’s show, Paul and Joey lament the fictional romances that were not to be on a little segment we’re calling The Baes that Got Away. What’s the shelf life on “bae,” anyway? Are we already not using it anymore? Regardless, we’re chatting about characters in games with some kind of romance element (Mass Effect, The Witcher 3, Stardew Valley, etc.) that we weren’t able to romance. We also talk about the Sony State of Play, Joey’s Lady D print, and more!
