Imagine you could give a Christmas gift to anyone, famous or not, what you would give and to whom? And why?

I would give Palia to my upstairs neighbor. To see if he stops being a massive dick to everyone, and just starts being friendly and happier.

    Outer Wilds, to my estranged family. I think they could use a new religion and that game’s probably a better place to start.

    Thomas was alone. I’d give it to literally anyone. Imagine a game that makes you cry about a rectangle.

      Such a good game. It’s mind-blowing how much personality and character development they give a bunch of quadrilaterals. The wiring and narration are fantastic.

    I would gift Overcooked to my friends (married with 2 kids) because they are a family of foodies.

      Hah my brother gave us a copy of Overcooked 2 as a wedding present and the card read “enjoy your first argument as a married couple”

    After finishing The Last Of Us 2, I spent a lot of energy being sad about all the people in my life who don’t play games. They’ll never have that experience, and I found that somewhat upsetting. There’s no other way to live that story, and I wish l could give it to just everyone, and have them actually play and enjoy it.

    I would give Wing Commander to Chris Roberts and remind him of what an actual “game” is, since it seems he forgot.
