Well hello there! Playing through TLOU2 and Ghost back to back was a pretty big increase to my normal gaming time. My hands have gotten sore as a result. Have any of you suffered gaming related injuries? Repetitive motion? Flying wii-mote to the face? How have these impacted your gaming life?

Hey y’all Brandon Sanderson has a book series called Mistborn that utilizes a magic set called Allomancy. The magic requires the user to “burn metals” inside of their bodies like tin, copper, aluminum, and others to enhance ones physical attributes or even manipulate forms of “flight.” I feel like that’s something that would translate incredible well into a game format, using metals as consumables to enhance your physical abilities, and the gameplay loop would be wild. With that being said, are their any settings, story elements, or magic sets that you wish somebody could or would adopt into a game to change up the format and add a new type of system? Hope this finds you well, Tyler (Itsmajorpanda)

Howdy crew, What do you think is more beloved: Star Wars movies or all other Star Wars media (TV Shows, books and Games)? If you want, feel free to break out TV shows into their own separate category. This is the question you're looking for, thanks! Fred

Can we talk a minute about brevity? I have to be honest, here…as a $5 Patreon subscriber, I am overwhelmed by the amount of content MinnMax dishes out every week. I should be excited about Leo Vader joining the team (which, ultimately, I am), but instead I feel anxious about having to track with a whole new category of content. Am I the only one here who feels this way? Can someone tally up the hours of content to be consumed each week? 3+ hours alone on the MinnMax Show alone. Then, add several more hours from video content, MinnFaqs, Interviews, Max Spoilers, Deep Dives, GOTY Hunts, BetterQuest. How am I supposed to keep up and contribute to community discussion, or even engage in Discord!? I currently have 30 episodes in my MinnMax podcast library waiting to be listened to (after deleting many that were too old and irrelevant), and am about 8 weeks behind on content. This means that I completely missed out on contributing to the Last of Us 2 spoiler discussion, about which I would really have loved to post questions and comments. My hope in joining this community was for it to supplement and enhance my gaming experience, not replace it. I’d be curious if the MinnMax team has had discussions about being more concise with the content, and I’d also like to know if others in the community have similar feelings about the overwhelming content. Or, if not, I’d like to know how others are consuming the MinnMax content. Do you just keep episodes on play all day, while gaming, while working, etc? Please take this as a positive criticism, I still love you guys. And if you’ve entertained my comment thus far, you can tell that brevity isn’t my strong suit, either. Having too much content is arguably a good problem to have, and brings immense value to your paid subscribers. If I may propose a solution…In future shows, create a short segment for the latecomers, for those with less time to keep up with content each week, the MinnLaxers one might call us. This would allow someone like me to pose a question or comment on a 4 week old episode, and ultimately it keeps that part of the community engaged and relevant.] Thanks guys, Taylor Whitt Nashville, TN

Hi Hanson and the Minnesota Two-N’s, How bonkers is it that the Hitman twitter account gave Leo’s Watch Later a shoutout? Was happy to see this little bunch of computer-loving cohorts get recognition, keep up the good work! Thanks, Tommy

Hey guys! Quick question for you. What game do you absolutely love, but have never finished? Mine is Final Fantasy 9. I love everything about it, but have never been able to finish it. Thanks for being awesome and helping us all be better! Bezlo.

Hey guys. Here is a potentially interesting question: Which game or games do you guys regret finishing? (in a positive or negative way) Games that wish you hadn’t finished for either being too good that didn’t want it to end OR that you wish you hadn’t have bothered with all the way to the end but couldn’t let it go? These can be games that you reviewed professionally or played in your own personal capacity. Thanks for the great show and constantly amazing content! Mirko

Hi minn of maxers, I’ve been thinking a lot about the Halo Infinite reveal and the controversy around the graphics. I personally could care less as long as the gameplay is fun to play. I realize it’s a work in progress and that many graphical assets are still being worked on. There’s no doubt that the game will look better than the demo when the it finally releases. My question to you is, what game do you think had the best graphical upgrade from demo/early trailers to final release? All the best, Noah D- Los Angeles

Hello MinnMaxers! I almost had that Photomode Snap!! One day... I remember hearing on last week's podcast that Kyle loved BTBAM (Between the Buried and Me), which is awesome cause that band shreds. It got me thinking of when I discovered them and found my path through a lot of different metal. As a huge metalhead, I thought I would be able to dive into some very different stuff without a huge hurdle of appreciation, and oh boy was I wrong when I hit Doom/Stoner metal. I couldn't understand it at first until someone at a SLEEP show looked at me blitzed out of his mind, held up metal horns, and said, "Tune low, and play slow." It put a huge grin on my face and I went full-on with the genre and now I'm even doing promo artwork for some local groups. My question for y'all is what music genre or band could you not get into until a comical moment made it click for you?

Hey MinnMax Crew, Star Wars Question : Ray Shields ? Why didn’t the Sith invest more in them ? They stopped Anakan and Obiwan in a “peaceful” way ? Thoughts ?

Irepress has two solid records you may enjoy: Samus Octology, and Sol Eye Sea I. Also, God Speed, You! Black Emperor's. I saw sleep a few years ago and loved them. Hell, Kyuss ( of Josh Homee from QotSA) is a killer stoner rock band too
