I still do a lot of that.
I do play some MMOs of sorts, you know, FPSs.
I still play a lot of the Battle Royale genre.
So, you know, things like that.
You just named genres.
Oh, well, I play random stuff, even if you talk about human ingenuity.
And I even play some of the Roblox games at this point in time, right?
But a lot of the games, and maybe I talk broadly in terms of genres, primarily because I appreciate the human ingenuity that has gone into the genres itself, right?
A hundred people dropped on an island with a circle that comes through.
That is what, I mean, while I enjoy the...
The game itself, I also appreciate the mechanic, the thought that has gone into, and the premise that the designer has figured out in PUBG, for example, right?
That it's this primal instinct of humans to be the last man standing, so to speak.
So it's things like that that I appreciate, and I think it's odd.
More of the same, I would say.
In the sense, when I say more of the same, I would say nothing has changed from day one for us.
And that has always been our mantra.
And we used to say it all the time that the mantra for us, our four gamers by gamers mantra has really followed us from day one, where the gaming industry didn't really exist as an industry, even the hardware industry or software and so on and so forth.
We believe that we design products for ourselves that we enjoy, that I enjoy using at any point of time.
And that tomorrow, when the game industry did grow dramatically, we were still focused on games, even though there were multiple opportunities for us to kind of expand out there.
And even now, where we talk about the gaming industry in somewhat of doldrums at this juncture, I believe that we're going to see the next great genre come through.
