Trivia
- The title card art was made by Donald Kirby.
- The music played during the intro and outro is "Song of the Ancients - Fate".
- In part three, timestamps for their saves can be seen, revealing that Pat and Liam began recording this Let's Play on June 2, 2016.
- To further date the series, Liam mentions playing Furi - which launched on July 5, 2016 - during part fifteen.
- Pat clarifies during part twenty-seven that as of the recording of that episode, No Man's Sky had yet to be released. This would date episode twenty-seven sometime before August 9, 2016.
- Pat refers to one of the lines of dialogue in part twenty-nine being similar to the title of next week's episode of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, which at the time was “Yoshikage Kira Just Wants to Live Quietly, Part 1”. This would mean that part twenty-nine was recorded sometime between August 12 and August 19, 2016.
