Show notes
Cheyenne joins Ben in the studio this week for an episode a year in the making!  They start off talking about a big move that Cheyenne is making this year and what games they are playing.  Cheyenne has been playing a couple of Larian Studios game and romancing mostly vampires.  Ben has finished Pacific Drive and is trying to figure out what he’s going to play next.  The hosts discuss the definition, share their results from a wikiHow “What is your aesthetic” quiz, and talk about how the definition has changed in recent decades.  They also take a peek at the Aesthetics Wiki and talk about recent TikTok shenanigans before moving on to discussing their favorite video game aesthetics.  Before closing the show, they ponder and explore what censorship in today’s gaming environment looks like.
