It’s how the early publicity was framed. Since they wanted the plot under wraps, what was mostly discussed was how the show was a return to gilligan’s x-files roots

lol I don’t want rt you and incense potentially even more people but this is something I yell about every now and then and isn’t examined enough! why do publishers think the median gamer gravitates to this, why don’t we tug at that string a bit more?
