I spent this entire episode cringing at all the crazy weeb stuff I did in highschool.

Hey, John I just found it, I don't know where it has gone either but it came through to us in email form! First of all, thank you for taking the time to write this! I think it's really worth saying that most if not all of what we say in these episodes are absolutely coming at what currently exists in this iteration of the work while acknowledging the past. Honestly for me anyway (Jasper) one of the reasons I feel it is appropriate to approach these things with lightness and humour is to acknowledge that most of this stuff is rooted in its time and you are absolutely correct to point that out, our intention is never to dunk on things people like. But I think ultimately you summed it up perfectly by saying it's in that act of trying to condense everything down that leaves us feeling how we do. I think it is a really good point you have made about this starting as a combat system first and foremost and how in that respect they faced nearly an impossible task. I hope I responded properly I am flipping between tabs and its very early in the morning haha!!

Sorry if this has been announced elsewhere, but when can we expect Part 2? The episode indicated it was up already for Patrons.
