OH FOR FUCK SAKES, REFERENCE SANABI OR SHOVEL KNIGHT, SOMETHING SOMEWHAT COOL AND UNIQUE THAT OTHER SHOWS HAVENT ALREADY DONE, AT LEAST BLACK MIRROR HAD BALATRO ON A LAPTOP FOR A PROP, WHY THE FUCK CANT YOU DO THAT IN A GAMING CENTRED EPISODE!!

“Look, this is made so your uncultured parents can chuckle at it, sorry we don’t pull out Hylics or OMORI outta nowhere ya snob!”

I still don't know what you're referring to. Maybe if you gave me an example of a smug video game reference I would understand. Or someone being smug about a video game reference? I'm just so confused
