Two quick corrections on places I misspoke (the dangers of being One Take Schreier): 1) at the beginning, I said Horizon Hunters Gathering was "released" earlier this year but meant "announced" and 2) I said Destiny 2 was taken offline but meant that it ended updates, obv it's still online

I don’t think I’ll ever forgive Sony for buying bluepoint, having them make a live service game, cancelling it, and shutting them down. Tragic.

We need a darker, grittier Concord reboot. That will solve all of Sony’s problems
