24 Questions With Colin | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 418

It's been awhile since we did a mailbag episode of Sacred+, so I (Colin) thought I'd solicit some inquiries from the audience, and you guys delivered more than a hundred. I picked through your submissions and came out with 24, on topics like Dragon Quest III, Valve, the future of survival horror, 30-versus-60 frames, PlayStation 6, holiday gaming, Madden, PS5 Pro, and so much more. Please enjoy.

State of the Union address for the first 30 minutes! Love it. Dude's honesty and sincerity shines.

I'll never understand the need to get platinum trophy's. There are way too many games to play these days. I would rather finish a game and then move on. Don't you trophy hunters want to just let go of this obsession? Don't you want to be unburdened by what has been?

Whoops... Didn't realize the questions were supposed to center around last stand my bad!

I appreciate your candor on the state of LSM and the Ben situation Colin. Don't beat yourself up too much big guy.

I think what you're referring to Colin (circa 28/29 mins in 'unusual anger', which I agree with ) is people's entitlement to have general acceptance for how they feel as the status quo for all. It's a really weird disassociated connection to reality. Very little objectivity. Should there be some kind of parallel, then individuals are equating that with irritation, anger, negativity etc. We live in a seriously entitled epoch in history I think.

The question about the shows not making money, that San Diego show… come to Los Angeles, I would have paid to have seen you guys. I ain’t going to San Diego. Hit big markets

Keep your head up Colin, business ownership can be brutal but realize the gift you have given the audience as well as the people who work for you.

Metaphor isn’t pro Patched but does run better on the pro

Selfishly, I hope Colin never retires. From IGN to LSM, I’ve been listening to this man talk for years. From freshman year of high school to management in a Fortune 500 company, Colin has been the most consistent voice.
