It's a tidy 25 minutes or so, and gets a fair way into the weeds of a variety of topics, from the current enthusiasm for live service "forever games" over 'finite', narrative-led affairs, to the "misleading" announcement of highly-demanded sequels years before they enter full production, in order to pump up a publisher's brand during a dry spell. One thing I wanted to fish out and drop on your plate is Darrah's discussion of what he terms "the fidelity ****** cult" - that is, the ******* for ever greater levels of lifelike visual detail and "intricacy".
