  1. Hi guys.

    Thanks as usual for the episode!

    I had a very very sad loss in my life, so I did not find the time earlier to listen to the episode and commentating it.

    I did not play anything beside some hours of magic the gathering Arena and try to do some WoW to distract me (was not successful ..)
    Most of the last weeks I watched tv shows like Last of us, Terminator Sarah Connor chronicles (old one but did nit saw it) and Big little lies.

    Sadly I can’t say anything to all other topics, because I don’t know all the games you talked about … sorry for that :/

    Please stay healthy and keep the good work going!
    Greetings,
    Ralf
