Hot Tequila - On Second Thought with Mike & Matt - Ep. 66

September is moving along at a precipitous clip. The weather is changing in the Northeast while Matt is still sweltering in the Midwest. Soon enough, it will be the cozy season, albeit maybe sooner than we like. 

Mike has been head down, working secretly on his website. Details are scarce, anticipation is tepid amongst the masses, but Mike is brimming with pride and excitement to get this thing off the ground. Details will be revealed soon enough, but the first handheld to be featured will be the Retroid Pocket Nova.

There was a ton of gaming news with BlizzCon and various Nintendo Directs happening recently. We decided to focus on games releasing within the next few years rather than spend a ton of time on Diablo V or Starcraft.

How much is Steam Frame? Did the price meet your expectations? We think it’s way too much money, but so is everything these days. We foresee the VR/Steam diehards buying this, but we’re unsure if it will do big numbers like the Steam Deck or the Steam Machine. Not that either of those is doing Switch 2-like numbers, but you get the point.

Games for Matt to add to his Steam Wishlist:
How to Fish
Dumb Ways to Build
BeaterCore
How to Grow Your Sausage
Normal Golf Game

Games we’ve been playing:
Mike: Blood Dungeon, Pickle Pete, Funguys Swarm, Megabonk
Matt: Solar Punk, Big Walk, Crimson Desert, Valheim 1.0
