Checkpoint Intimates is a weekly podcast where two members of the team go one-on-one on a topic that they both feel strongly about, talking in a more deeper and, yes, intimate context.

This week, Elliot and Hailey open the new year by talking about the importance of a good opening in a video game. Setting the stage for the rest of your time with the game an opening can make or break a game and can even take an alright game to a whole other level.

Giving a 1-UP to diversity in gaming.
