PS: I’m sorry that there was no Brief on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to prepare it. Fortunately, laziness did not touch me, there was just a lot of other work. In addition to the classics in the form of preparing the Player’s Calendar, it was a direct Microsoft with Bethesda, and on Thursday, on the other side of the country, we prepared something special with the editors, and in the evening, after 6 hours in the car, we no longer had the strength to do anything. But I believe that the result is worth it. By now, the Brief should be back on a regular basis.
