“We knew it was going to be different. We knew we were gonna see different challenges, and there were moments in the game that we got exposed.

And I think that was a very good learning opportunity, a very good moment for us, because we were able to solve some problems. I’m sure there’s still more that we need to solve, and we’re gonna look at videos and figure out how to do that as well."
