Original writers of the game and current Co-Head of Studio Will Shick and Development Director Will Pagani went on a lot of Podcasts to talk about the biggest Update in the history of MCP and after having listened to most (not sure if all) of them here's some bits of information found in those that maybe isn't as obvious and not repeated in every one.
