On this episode of SQE, Knuckles (actually, it’s Kyle)  and Mina reminisce about old school consoles that they wish they had or could revisit again before talking about how gatekeeping and money kept them from really diving into games when they were younger. Then, (16:37) it’s all about the Game Awards. What did we like? What did we play? Why are the same five games nominated for every category? Why is Tom Nook such a bad role model for the kids? The big question is, though, how do we play video games? (25:38) The accessibility award has us asking what it actually means to “play” games, especially as they look into The Last of Us Part II’s deep accessibility options. And if you’re curious, we close out with our Game of the Year picks! (40:16).
