This lovely, loving, and poignant study of friends & family (exploring definitions + expectations of each) also offers an unexpectedly fascinating study of video game/gamer history. I enjoyed the alternating perspectives throughout, helping us to better understand the characters and making their relationships feel deeper & richer. Occasionally scenes felt rushed or abrupt, leaving me wishing for more insight though that could also be a reflection of real life - we don’t always get the detail & closure we hope for.
