This is the first time I'm listening to this podcast (I also played Stray and wanted to hear thoughts on it). I'm pleasantly surprised by the calm discourse! Game stuff can be so screechy. Anyway, I think B-12 is translating for the cat so it can understand, because the cat will meow in response to certain sentences. Great game, can't wait to finish my Steam review on it.
