Pokémon Unite: 5 Year Retrospective
Glitterjaw's Derek and Doug reflect on the unexpectedly popular MOBA game Pokémon Unite, a sorta-kinda sports game that's ruthlessly competitive but also lets monsters wear adorable lil outfits. They talk about their complicated personal relationships with this oddity that's unlike any other Pokémon game, and why one of them logged over 1,100 hours despite the overstimulating pop-ups and diabolical microtransactions that come with free-to-play mobile games.
