Well, the creator of the Souls games and from FromSoft, he's described it as trying to teach people to get back up again, right?

And as we talked about before, games are also about life and death.

I just think, you know, at some point, the death has to stop.

just to restore the New York Times credibility here, I did 100% Silksong.

But I still, you know, I agree.

This is a real one.

You know, true heads know.

But I just think, like, in a design perspective, it's okay to say, like,

you know, there were some things that should have been tweaked.

And that's an interesting thing about the video game world.

And I think everyone's seen it online to a certain degree.

There are diehard fans.

Like the same way that Nicki Minaj has diehard fans that are willing to go to war on social media, Silksong also does.

And the second one.

I have developed a theory since of why I like this game so much.

And I will say, like, playing it so much, there are these things called boons, which you mentioned, which are, like, powers that the gods give you that make you more powerful.

And lately, whenever I need a favor from an editor, I say, I crave a boon.

Please.

Um...

I think it's because, for me, it's kind of a math game, right?
