Kineticist’s take
Don announces three simultaneous game arrivals and discusses pricing, code support, and community engagement in pinball.
Synopsis
Don discusses three major incoming games for his collection: Evil Dead (picking up this weekend), Avatar CE (shipping soon), and Dungeons & Dragons (ready within a week): and explores themes around gameplay quality, code updates, pricing, and community engagement. He shares enthusiasm for Evil Dead early sellout trajectory, reflects on secondary market value concerns with premium-tier games, and expresses hopes that D&D will receive consistent post-launch support like Jaws has.
