Yes, we are but slaves to the new releases, which is why we are reviewing a fifteen-year-old game. “But that’s impossible!” you reply, “No one was alive back then!” Records are scant, but there is a rich oral tradition that people have been playing games at least since the release of Nirvana’s Nevermind. Archeologists are still trying to carbon-date that period exactly, though.
