Hey folks! Welcome to the first episode of the AVoCADo GamesCast recorded over Discord instead of Skype. You hopefully won’t hear much of a difference on your end, but this is a brand-new workflow for us under the hood. Exciting!
Anyway, in this episode, The Kappa and I discuss recent GameStop woes, the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Metaphor: ReFantazio, Ixion, Urban Myth Dissolution Center, and the perils of social media. Enjoy!
