@neilnewbon.bsky.social hey, what's the blandest thing on the menu?
Just watched an old sketch of yours.

I recognise the actor playing the waiter. Neil Newbon. He plays the voice of Astarion in Baldurs Gate 3.

They should have given her a normal everyday sword. Her skill with it is more important, isn't it? Directors always let us down with silly looking things. They must know there's people out there like us watching and rolling our eyes.

Yeah, but if your enemy bleeds they'll die.

Strong cast. I'm not needing eye candy. Interesting characters. Vision of Earth completely owned by corporations is terrifying. I agree... there's more to the tale than meets the eye.

I'm really hooked by the first 2 eps. Decent characters, and a scenario of competing corporations in search of immortality. What can go wrong?

This was definitely happening.

It was great, but felt sorry for some of the stall staff who didn't know the games they were selling better than their gaming customers. Modiphius was one example.
