When I was a kid growing up in the UK and it was all, like, Spectrum and Commodore 64, Ultimate Play the Game were... I guess kind of like the Rare of... Remember Rare's Golden Age? They were the guys. I mean, they made all the best games.
We don't. Because a lot of people don't know their history. I think it's only when the Rare Classics Arcade compilation came out, and I was very glad to see they did include all of the old Ultimate 60... All the old Ultimate player games.

I don't know how long it takes other people. It took me almost a thousand hours. I had 980 something hours played in that game. So I was going to play... I actually briefly came out of streaming retirement early this week to play some of it because I could see I was going to hit the level cap. I should do it on stream just for fun. I haven't streamed in ages. So I put my stream back together.

I've got the same vibe. I didn't want to bring it up because I don't want to open that door. But it does feel like a lot of the people who love Black Myth Wukong are the same people that downvote other games for being too woke or whatever. You know what I mean?
