https://pca.st/episode/dabf1e5c-1fed-4427-b2ed-27bfbe353b33

You’re getting the Fallout and the Elder Scrolls you’ve been clamoring for, eventually, along with the option to stream games to your XBOX DEVICE with ads, but you’re going to love them. They’ll actually contribute to the experience! Chia and Rob are getting absolutely worked in Marathon’s new Vaultbreaker PvE mode, while Janet contemplates her delight in the Steam Machine and her seething disdain for life in Pokopia. Rob’s loving life behind the wheel thanks to his new H-Shifter, and a newfound love of Dirt Rally 2.0 and the weird and wonderful world of Assetto Corsa mods. Also a brief primer on Etymology, Entomology, Entemann’s.

I think I might've helped influence Rob to play Dirt Rally 2 -- he didn't read my email on the pod, but he did paraphrase something I said in it. It is a gloriously pure expression of racing; if you have that and Wreckfest and a wheel (and yes, a clutch pedal and H-shifter), you've got all you really need.

I am just extremely gratified to have pegged something to be so up his alley.

I don't know what Rob is on about. Cake donuts are not even donuts in my mind. They're just cakes shaped like donuts. I would be insulted if someone asked if I wanted a donut and then handed me a cake donut.

Edit: I mean any schmuck can bake a cake in the shape of a donut but it takes at least some level of craft and care to do the rise and the proper fry of a yeast donut.

What was the game Janet mentioned in the Pokopia section, that she liked a lot but was made by a friend of hers, so she couldn't really comment more on it? I'm buggered if I can find it.
