I started it up because it's on gamepass, I'm really early, Some of the quick time events can just go straight to hell but I think there's some potential here.
ap-helion, not afelion. It's an orbital term.
I checked a few dictionaries and they all listed both pronunciations, with the "f" form listed first. Amusingly, the scientific form at dictionary.com lists the "f" form only.
Can't tell if his joke about the games name is more of his trademark sarcasm or not. "Aphelion" is an astronomy term for when an orbiting body, like a planet, is at its furtherest point from its star/sun. He likes to brag about his vocabulary, but sometimes it feels like he goes out of his way to not talk about details like this that might enhance the experience for others. Not his job I know, but then why keep bringing it up all these years?
I'm calling it now. This one's making the Bland list for 2026.
