The Stream Team: Crawling through Khyrulek’s Crypt in Project Gorgon

1
Although Project Gorgon's Steam launch was delayed, MassivelyOP's MJ couldn't wait any longer to jump back in. There's just something about this game where you can be a cow, a werewolf, and more that draws her in. Besides, she never finished exploring Khyrulek's Crypt!

Eternal Crusade shows off the frozen Pegasus Station
