Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the video gamers podcast. You know, you might be a gamer if you listen to gaming podcasts. And well, here we are. On today's episode, we're going to be talking about some of the common things gamers do. in hilarious fashion. So buckle up because this episode's going to be a fun one. But first, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh, and joining me,

he might be a gamer if we could only get him to stop playing everything with a controller. It's Ryan. Listen here, Bob. Where did we start with gaming? Are you going to play Battlefield 6 with a controller, Ryan? This, I will not play with a controller. Okay. Okay.

Thank you. That was the right answer because I was like, otherwise I need somebody else in my squad, man. Battlefield and Diablo and like those games are, those are a PC baby. Yeah, massive keyboard. That's the right answer. All right.

And joining us, he might be a gamer because he's bought every battle passing cosmetic and basically every game he's ever played is ace. I'd just like to point out I'm a victim of FOMO, all right? If I don't buy it and then finish it, Who else will? These poor artists, Ace. Exactly.

That's what you're really doing. It's just, you're just supporting the artists that do, that put all of this time and effort and skill and talent into these battle passes, man. Clearly, man. Somebody's got to buy them. Someone has to show the appreciation for all they do for our industry. You're just doing, you know, you're doing the good work out there, Ace. Yeah, good on you, man.

You know, we've been picking on you for this, but you know, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You're just, you're the guy. You're the reason we got microtransact. actions out the wazoo. Dang it. No, for me, it was the, it was the, it was the buying skins for games you haven't played. That's the one that was the one. Any more than anything else that got me.

I was like, he led the show with that. And I was like, okay. I know you buy skins. And then he was like for games I haven't played. And I was like, oh, they're really free games. They just haven't played them. Oh, man. Guys, we got to.

fun show this is going to be the topic of this one is you might be a gamer if and we have each come up with several uh answers to that question that you know are things the gamers would understand man you know and so this is one of those ones where i i think this is going to be relatable i think this is going to be funny that's the hope anyway so you know sometimes you shoot your shot and you see how things go we're going to find out i know i got some good ones that that i think are going to be a lot of fun to talk about but boys we're going to start off with a review because reviews are what make the world go round it's it's it's what lets us know if we're doing a good job and more importantly for anybody out there that might be looking for a gaming podcast the first thing

they're going to do is read some reviews and if they see some good ones maybe they give us a try and that's all we say man is if somebody gives us a try they'll probably stick around because our motto is we don't suck we don't suck we don't suck all right so this review is titled real gamers that help and provide the gaming community and it says vGP is not only the best gaming podcast it's a family all of the hosts provide unique feedback on past current and future games but the meat of the show is the community they have created on discord once you join the discord you are always surrounded by the best gamers out there and the best part is the hosts are always active, interacting, helping, or just messing about like the

rest of us. I started listening to this show to pastime when I was bored, but now I have a place to just be my nerdy gamer self. I appreciate all the hosts to provide us with great content and support the gaming community greatly. Dude, that's awesome. I love you. We say it all the time. Our Discord server is amazing. Come join us. It's really is that awesome. You don't have to take our word for it. I mean, read through the reviews of the show, man. And I come, and all the time, I have to remember that there's more people out there that listen to us than our Discord. Because, like, I just, that, it's so active and engaging.

There's so many people that are just awesome, and I just love it. So it is such a cool place to hang out and just be part of the family, part of the group. It's awesome. It never ceases to amaze me, dude, honestly. It is, you know, and we say if that sounds awesome to you, you're the kind of person that we want. Come on down. Yeah, we don't do the toxicity. We don't do the game shaming.

And, you know, if you have an opinion on something, you know, your opinion's wrong. And now we're going to fight over it and stuff like that, man. So we always say, if this sounds good to you, come join us because you're the kind of person that belongs in that community. You'll receive the warmest welcome of your entire life. I can promise you that. That's true, too, man. Yeah. So, all right, boys, you guys ready to get into this.

episode. I'm going to start us off on this one, man. You know, again, these are just things that I think gamers can relate to, man. So, okay, so I'm going to start us off. You might be a gamer if you've ever stood in line for a midnight release of a game. You guys are laughing because you've all done it. Yeah. Name a game that you stood in line for for the midnight release. GTA 5 Pokemon Sword and Shield Red Dead Redemption 2

for me was the last one Now this is This is kind of a dying thing though Right with the age of digital games And downloads and online purchases And stuff like that I think there's probably a lot of gamers out there That are going like what?

You guys stood in line at midnight You old heads You had to stand in line like what? No But the thing is like there was nothing you know there was nothing like it back in the day where you stood in line and you were everybody there was excited for the same thing you were all there there was no sides there there was no teams there was nothing but we all want this one thing we're waiting for this

one thing what is your experience prior if it's a sequel or whatever like everyone would just talk hang out laugh joke and then you get it and everybody walks away like you know And you're so jealous of the guy that got it. And he's walking by and you're like, I need it in my hands, man. Yeah, exactly. You know, you're in the back of the line and he's coming by with his copy, you know. So, yeah, there was nothing like waiting in line for a midnight release or any release. So that's a really good one.

Do you remember the fear of worrying that they'd sell out before you got to the front of the line? Am I early enough? Like, he showed up early and then there's a huge line anyway. And you're like, oh. Because you didn't know. like they didn't have unlimited copies dude i remember red dead redemption too man for that lot i got there fairly early and that line was huge and i remember going like does anybody know how many copies they have and one guy was like i heard one employee say he's got like 50 and then you start like counting and you're

like okay well i'm 36 i'm probably safe you know yeah but right it's kind of like you said dude everybody was excited everybody was talking about the game you all had something in common I mean, you're standing in line at like 11.30 p.m. at night. You got work the next day. It was just a, but there was just something magical about it. And so that's why I love to start with this one where it's like you might be a gamer if you've ever stood in line for a midnight release of a game, dude. We do this now where it's like, you know, hey, this game releases at, you know, for us,

because we're Pacific time. A lot of times it's like eight o'clock in the morning or something. And you're like, I got to go to work. I could be 15 minutes late to work. I just want to load it up. I just want to see the splash screen. I want to do the intro real quick. You know, that's all.

Yeah. Changing your, uh, using a VPN so your time zones different so you can launch the game earlier, right? Like, we've all been there, man. The desperation. All right, Ace, let's jump over to you, man. What do you got for us? You might be a gamer if you've raged quit a game and then immediately went right back

to the game. Why are you calling me? out like this ace. I feel like this is targeted at me, man. What the? This is specifically me when I think about this one, fighting Melania for like a year.

Oh. That's acceptable. Yeah, I think that's an acceptable one. Straight up, just a year. It would be like attempts where I would sit on my couch, and this is when I just played on PlayStation, and I had done my first build in Eldon Ring. It's the first Souls game I ever played.

I'd beaten everything else but Melania. So all I wanted to do was beat her And I would spend like five hours a day Just trying to beat Malenia And I'd be like, screw this game, I'm done I'd uninstall it for my PlayStation Then I'd just like, you know what? I think I could beat Melania today

And I'd have to wait like 10 hours to the game To install because I'd crappy internet You would uninstall Oh, that's next level too. Everybody listening Has at one point like Rage quit a game. If you played games, like this is

If you're a gamer, you've raged quit a game. There's no game or no gamer that hasn't, like, met an obstacle they couldn't beat the first try. Like, and that's the thing with gaming is like, that's, there's always something that's going to defeat you. And so everybody's got that one thing where they're just like, you know what? I'm done with this. And then they just like uninstall it or, you know, leave the game or turn it off, you know. So that's a good one, man. That's just that frustration level because you want it so bad.

Like you want it. You want it. It's right there. That doesn't go away, but you're like, I'm not trying anymore. And, you know, you do. But it's the next attempt. It's like, in your brain, it's like, bro, I can get around this next one, man. If things just, everything falls into place, just perfect, you know, and then it doesn't, until it does.

Until it finally does. And then you just jump out of your seat. You're like, yeah. My favorite thing about that is the time I finally did beat here, I left the, like, mic on, on the controller. And you could just hear me screaming. background. Oh, man. That's awesome. Great, dude. All right, Ryan, what do you got for us, man?

Ah, so, so mine is, um, anyone who's a gamer, you know that, uh, we may or may not have our own terminology and our own language. So you might be a gamer if you just use gamer slang and terms in all of life. Like, I, I can't tell you how many times I'd walk buying to somebody and be like, you know, we did something and be like, G, G. You know, and they're like, what? And I'm like, oh, yeah, good job, man. You know, good Gigi. And they're like, oh, okay, you know, or call, you know, noob. Everybody says new. Yeah. That's from gaming, you know, like, so, so gamer slaying, gamer terms, like, in just regular real world scenario situations, like, I use them all the time. And then a lot of times people are confused if, uh, they're not gamers, you know,

and they just look at me confused, you know. I'm going to go AFK a sec, guys. You can cover the counter, right? Like, I'm going to do AFK real quick. And it's like, yeah, exactly. People know, man. Camer would know. It would be that.

Cool, man. Yeah, but what's funny is it kind of evolves over time, too. Like, which is, which is neat because it's, and this is just like any language, you know, but it's like, like when I, in my younger years, the term Uber before the car service when taxis, Uber meant awesome. so like and that arose from gaming so and it carried over to real life where I'd be like dude oh man that is Uber dude yeah and it just meant that's awesome that's like fantastic and and people would use it in everyday life and that is something that arose from the gaming world

Uber yeah and then of course this car company comes out and it's like Uber and I'm like wait a minute wait a sec that's that's from like the MMO days what are you talking about yeah So that's a good one, dude. It gets me thinking if I, Gigi is a really good one that I think is used commonly. I do say, hey, I'm going to go AFK. Nube, I get good. Nube is probably the get, uh, F. I've actually heard people say, you know, F, man.

Like, just press F. Yeah, I have referred to boring people as NPCs. I literally, I did tell somebody the other day in real life, I said, you can fix that by pressing an alt F4. And they just looked at me funny. And they were like, what? And I was like, oh, yeah, never mind. You didn't get that one.

All right, I got a good one, boys. You might be a gamer if you've ever accidentally played a game until the sun came up. Oh, we've all been there, man. Yeah. I, to this day, remember there's two very vivid memories I have. Now I'm a little bit older now, so I don't make this mistake because I'll pay for it. next day but i remember my brother and i playing a game called rogue which i'm pretty sure is the predecessor to rogue like uh games where we and it was an ask it was an old askie based game so

like your little guy was just like the little uh at sign you know shift to moving around a little map like a maze and stuff like that you find treasure and fight monsters and stuff do we played that game next thing you know mom is is we hear mom in the kitchen and we're a like oh my gosh turn it off turn it off we had to like hurry up and run to bed pretend like we were asleep you know because we all we would have gotten in so much trouble as you do we stayed up all night playing that but yeah and then and then the you know my famous my ever quest days of just raiding and then like next thing you know man it's freaking five something in the morning and I look outside and it's like is that the son I'm going to go no what have I done

it just slowly starts to get brighter in the room you're in you're like yeah you like That's about right. Because you just get in that zone. Yeah, do you do. Like your squinty eyes, you're just locked in. You know, I, I won thousand percent. I remember one time vividly playing destiny. And this was like OG destiny days when it, you know, when it was fun, obviously.

And, you know, we'd raid every Tuesdays and then we just farm mats and I was running stuff. And then you know you're on late when all the people from like Europe start getting on. Oh, yeah. And you get all these other languages, you know, and they have all these accents and whatnot and stuff. And then next thing you know, like, I was, I was playing and I was really trying to grind for something. I forget what it was. And that shows how important it was that I don't even remember. But I'm playing. And then I look over and I'm like, oh, oh, no. And it's 5.30 in the morning. And I'm like, well, I guess I'm not going to sleep because that serves no purpose at all

because I got to be up in an hour. So, yeah, that's a really good one. Everybody who is, who is games for a long period in their life has played way longer than they meant to, you know, overnight, for sure. Yeah. And it's not the whole like, oh, we're going to have this like marathon gaming session. This is the accidental, like, yeah. You look over and you're like, what? Like, what just happened?

Yeah. When I worked overnights, and I'd just bought like Assassin's Creed Valhalla, I was so hype just to play something new that, uh, I looked out and it was dark again. And I was like, uh-oh. I got to go to work. I have work in an hour. I've been a terrible mistake. Yeah, that was a rough night.

What's up next for you, man? What do you got for us? You might be a gamer if you've restarted a game because you spent a skill point wrong. Oh, my goodness. Okay. I have learned from this mistake and now I have skill choice paralysis. Dude, it's so bad. That's one of my things, too.

It scares me. oh man i it's so tough like this is why i love the free respect or the cheap respect yes if i am playing a game where i cannot respect it is terrifying dude terrifying to try to spend that first skill point to where it's like i don't know what i want to spend this on let me learn the game a little bit let me i just let it pile up yeah and then you next thing you know you got like 18 skill points and you're like well i might want to do this build but maybe i want to do this build and you still can't spend any of oh I don't want to touch them if I don't know

I can respect them. Yeah. So thank you developers for saving us from ourselves on this one where it's like, okay, guys look, we get it. You can just respect it. It's fine. You don't need to be scared of it anymore. I'll run through a game and I'll not use any of my points because

I'm like, I don't want to use them wrong. But then I'm struggling so hard in the game and I'm like, I can't do it. And I'm like, oh, I guess I should use my points. And I'm like, but I don't know where to put them. You know, so oh man, that's, that's, that's, The paralysis of where to put the points is my, if it makes it easy and streamlined for me, that's like, that's my go-to. I don't, I don't want to steal any of y'alls, but this also ties into this one where it's like, if you never drink a potion in a game.

Oh, never using your consumables is, I, I, that is me to a guilty of you. Well, you got to, you know, you got to save it for when you'll need it, dude. I'm going to need these 40 potions for some boss fight that I don't know I'm going to need it for. It's for an emergency, Josh. Exactly. And I, dude, okay, you guys know I have played Remnant 2. I mean all the way through. People saw me beat it on Apocalypse mode. I'm done with it finally. Dude, I probably have 100 hours and that game has consumables. I have used exactly two consumables in my time with Remnant. And it's the ammo one because I've ran out of ammo on a boss fight. That's the perfect example of like, I have thousands, thousands of these consumables. And I'm like, well, I'm not going to use it. And I'll tell you what, the worst is when it's a roguelike game where if you you use a consumable, you don't get it back. Nope. Because then I'm like, well, I don't know when I'm ever going to need these.

So I just never use them. Potions are the same thing, man. Oh, my Alderman character just has everything I've ever picked up ever. Oh, yeah. I've never used it with these things. Might need them at some point. I beat the game. I'm done with it.

But they're still just sitting in my inventory. You never know. Yeah. You never know. Oh, my gosh. All right. Ryan, what do you got? uh so i got one that um probably applies to like people like ace more than anyone is that when

you uh you might be a gamer when you know more about gaming lore than actual history of our world and there's so many there's so many people that could tell you the the depths and the details of these video games and then you're like who's the president in nine 1980, whatever. And they're like, I don't know. You know, they're like, what? You know, it's wild. How deep a lot of people get into this stuff.

And then not being able to like know about real world. Like, there's like, that's IRL. Get out of here. So, dude. Video game history. This one gets me, dude. Because if this ain't the truth, man. Bro, I'm not, I'll be honest.

I don't know that I could name more than like 12 presidents. Like legitimately. That's tough, man. But, dude, I can name every boss in the Dark Souls game. I would say I can give you every boss in Elder Drinking Dark Souls. I know the different, like, cheat codes to get extra lives in the older Nintendo games. I mean, I can name all these things, dude, the different zones, how to get there, how they connect and all that stuff. And it's like, I can't, I can't name the presidents.

I think I'll be lucky if I could name all 50 states, man. But man, do I know my video game lore and the. characters and the maps and it's exciting like you you you get excited about it and you want to know more and you look into the lore and you learn these things and stuff and then you realize how much you actually dove into it you know you're like oh man i kind of went pretty heavy i don't care about presidents when am i ever going to need to use that yeah exactly right but i know how much manna i need to cast this spell 14 times in a row yeah oh my goodness that's dude that is a good one, Ryan. That one got me. I know

all 900 Pokemon, but I could you tell you a single thing. I figured old Ace of shame here was like he's Mr. uh, vault trap with like all the lore of everything. So, Ace is the guy that tries to say that the Eldon ring lore makes sense. Yeah. It really

does make sense. It does. It's not a look at it for a little bit. It does not make sense, Ace. I don't care. You can try to say it does, but you break it down and you like, like look into the things, you know, man. Like, It all, you know, it all makes sense. It's just like a family tree, man.

You just got to know, like, who the parents are. It is, though. It's like, no, no, no. Show me a video. Show me what happened. And then I'll be good. Dude, I legitimately watched an hour long Eldon Ring lore breakdown video, an hour. And it still made no sense to me at the end, dude.

And I listen to like a 16 hour audio book on the lore of Dark Souls. Oh, geez. No. All right, listen, we've got to take a quick break and then we'll come back with a few more of these. We'll be right back. All right, guys, we are back. I guess it's my turn on this one.

Ryan, kind of like your video game memory one. I'm just going to say this one, man. You might be a gamer if you've ever gotten chills from hearing video game music. Dude, the Halo theme song. More recently, Expedition 33. I, you know, I've been, I love, there's still people playing it. And the second thing, like, DM me and they're like, okay, man, I got to talk about it.

Just beat the game. All I do is link a song. And I'm just like, this is going to make you. And they're like, oh my gosh, like yes, you know. And it's just, dude, there are so many examples of video game music just absolutely just chills. You remember it. It is like a core memory in our brain somehow, dude. but I'm getting them now oh I know man

like hollow like I can think of like so many different games where it's either or sound you know we can throw sounds in there too where it's just like there is something just visceral that gets embedded in our brains when we have these experiences and we can tie them to a soundtrack or a song or just a sound in general and I don't know what it is but it is something that if people aren't gamers, they just don't understand, like, the impact that that can have or the emotional response that we can have from herein, you know, like I said, a song from a game or something, man. I mean, when you listen to music or you watch a movie or these things, like, those are,

those are not continuous, like, developments. There's not something you constantly do. Like, when you play a game, typically you replay it over and over. Like, if you like it, like, you're going to continue to play it. You're going to play it mostly every day. So, you know, like Battlefield 4, that's one of my most memorable. Like, do-da-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d. You know, and it's like, boom, that sound, it plays every time you load the game.

Every time you're loading a map. So, like, you know that. It's beat into your head. Like, those games, you continuously play that. You continuously hear the sound. So that's just what it does. It makes you feel those good feelings of playing that game. So that's why that music just means so much.

And so, yeah, no, that's a really, really good one. And it stays with you forever. Ever, forever. Never forget. Famously EverQuest, you know, played it way too much, quit it for, you know, 15 years or however long. And then somebody told me about the P99 server or something. And I remember loading it up. And the very first note of the main menu song when it kicked in was just this flood, dude.

I'm talking. And I hadn't heard it in like 15. years man but it was just instant and what's funny is my wife heard it in the other room and she was like was that EverQuest

and I was like I'm not playing it I'm not playing it I just wanted to see it just you know it's like it's funny to me how ingrained it can get and how you will never forget it either man I mean my brain immediately went to Ender Lily's main theme

because it reprises in Ender Magnolia and just hearing it one more time even on like different, you know, instruments in a different game. I was like, oh, yeah, it's familiar. Yeah. All right, Ace, what do you got for us, man? You might be a gamer if you know the pain of deleting five games just to make room for one. Look at it, you call it, dude, yeah, 300 gigabytes, what do you mean?

What do you mean, you don't have 300 gigs free? What the heck? You know, you should have triple digit gigs. dude i gotta go buy a hard drive to play this game like what they didn't say that on the box that's why ace plays indies because they're all like three gigs yeah like three or five gigs man oh man that's funny man like the i will say this in in today's day where you know SSDs are super cheap now relatively like you know it's not as common as an issue anymore but dude when you had like limited media space and you

did you had to juggle these games and it's like you would delete three but it's just not quite enough and you're like okay well those three were easy but now i don't know what to delete man well it's gonna get off yeah and then you're sitting there going through your checklist and you're like okay well i guess i have to pick which game i don't like the most it's like that struggle was real man oh dude it was so bad when i was has you guys have you guys ever because you know how like when you delete a game like through steam it'll say do you want to keep your save files Like, have you ever gone all the way and been like, yes, delete the save files, too? No, no.

Nope. Do you know how many save files you have on your PC right now? You never know, dude, you never know. You're probably 300 games worth of save files sitting on your computer right now. What if I come back? Nobody deletes them. We're not stupid like you said. It's like, I might go back one day.

The best part is when you go back and then you like load up and then you're like, what was I doing? You're like, I'll start it around and you're like, I'll start it around and you're like, like, dude, I have no clue where I am. I was like, I don't know what's going on. And then as you start to progress, you're like, oh yeah, that's where I was. You know, that's the best feeling.

When you can kickstart that memory back, you're like, oh, I was doing this. I don't have to restart. My goodness, man. All right, Ryan, what do you got? All right. For this one, this is when you

this kind of goes a little bit along the line. of waiting for for launches but this is when you treat like releases like it's a holiday like when a game's coming out when when something happens you're like hey no no no honey we can't plan that this day like this is literally the next one my list this this weekend blah blah blah game comes out like we can't no no what you what are you doing you're not setting me up for this uh like you it's something different to be able to sit down for a game you've been waiting for and play it all weekend long with the release so so just man that's that's the thing

the game the game's releasing you plan all your life around it like it's a national holiday those games released that's what it is i once silksong gets that release date man that's my national holiday right there i was going to say and we know and but josh's uh bosses know that when a game's coming out you know that's when he asks for days off if I ask for a time off the instant

the instant response is what games comes out what game comes out that day Josh and then I'm like I'm allowed to have personal time man and they're like

no really what game's coming out and then I'm like how do you know it's a game all right it's Battlefield 6 like freaking every time man you know

yeah that's literally on my list is it was you might be a gamer if you've ever called out of work or schedule a day off so you can play video game or cleared your schedule.

Like, yeah. I'm trying to think what it was. Like, I told my, I told my family, I'm like, yo, I'm not a dad. I'm not a husband this weekend. Like, I am, I am gamer Josh. This is what I'm doing. Yeah, this is 100% what I'm doing. I'll do everything ahead of time.

I'm not going to be lazy. I'll get it all done. But like, bro, this game is this weekend. And it's me in that game and that is it. Oh, that's so good. Okay, listen, we're at it. We're almost out of time. Let's just do a couple quick fire.

We can't discuss it, but Ryan, you stole mine. Um, I've got, uh, I've got, well, we did have the rage uninstall. Ace, you had that one. Um, the last, I have two. Uh, you might be a gamer if you've ever called someone a hacker because they killed you. You know, they can't be good. It's just for a hacker, dude. You know, there's no way you killed me right there. You're not better than me. Yeah. And then, uh, you might be a gamer if you think pizza rolls are one of the greatest inventions ever. Yeah. Uh, ace, you got any more? I got one more You might be a gamer If you've bought a game Installed it But then played something Completely different

I've never done that I know you have it Which is so weird to me I know But you also don't leave things installed So that's very true too Oh you guess what I uninstalled today boys What?

Marvel rivals Marvel rivals Oh The bullet I You're about to get played Hey but you know what It lasted a really long time

It did It did last I have not played that game in a month So that is also a very stellar fitting tribute to that game as well that I left it on my desktop for a month. And then. Ryan, you got any others? Oh, Ace. You got one more?

Oh, you have one more? You also might be a gamer if you check every corner of a room before moving on because there might be loot. That is, that's my wife, dude. Like I, look. Oh, when you're thrifting? No, I mean in a game, dude. like there's a few games where like we'll play it together but she doesn't want to like Zelda Tears of the Kingdom for instance right she's like you play I'll watch but then she's

like do you didn't check that bush over there and I'm like which one and she's like that one over there's like maybe there's like 50 bushes and she's like you got to check them all there might be a rupee in one of those and then I'm like okay this is a little overboard like I'm all for looking for the secret loot but like I'm not checking every tree and bush in the game man but she just loves it she loves that treasure hut man she's like oh look I found something. It's so satisfying when you do find something, though. Yeah. Oh, I got it. Yeah. Yep. Yep.

Oh, that's a good one. I just got a couple little quick hitters. Like, um, when you react strongly to like games being delayed or announced like just good or bad, just you know, it changes your whole mood for the day.

Um, that's, that's a big one that my unfortunately wife has to deal with often. And then um, why is so grouchy? Oh man, Metal Gear got to late again. Hopefully not. Hopefully not. And then the other ones, when you, like, you follow, like, dev teams or

e-sports teams, kind of like on social media, just, like, sports teams, you're like, oh, yeah. Oh, what do they say? You know, and you're always checking in, seeing what's going on and seeing what's going on with these devs or the games or where they're at and stuff like that. The Overwatch League is the only time in my life where I have cared about, like, an e-sports team because I was so in Overwatch at the time and I was like, bro,

the outlaws are going to play like who? Oh, no way. Like, oh, they're going to get wrecked, man. Yeah. That's pretty good too. So all right. Well, listen, hey, let us know what you might be a gamer if is in the comments. So leave a comment with what
