Telltale Games

I'm stumped on this puzzle.

Can you figure out the next two digits in the sequence?

31 41 59 26 ??

Hint 1: The Solution cannot be derived from the numbers.
Hint 2: The Sequence refers to a mathematical constant.
Hint 3: Try to imagine a decimal point after the 3.

I have absolutely no idea how to figure this one out and I need help!

Hint
do you like pie?

Answer if my hint was not clear 53

An additional hint: I imagine many people who understand what the sequence represents would still have to look up the answer somewhere.

I thought it was funny that Telltale expects people to know the digits to pi beyond the first couple. I did, but I also for some reason memorized it to 100 places at one point in school.

My calculator doesn't give enough digits! I had to guess the correct rounding as well.

There is a couple of puzzles that requires a knowledge of maths. Annoying. I knew it was pi but still had to look up the solution. Didn't help that there was only one question mark, I thought it just wanted the next number not two?

For next update this puzzle should have two question marks making plain that the answer requires a two digit answer.

I think they should have asked for all the next digits. This was just half-assed.

The rules stated the answer was a two digit number (and all the numbers before it were two-digit).

This puzzle got me HARD. I should have realized what it was. I was feeling so smart after figuring out the other puzzle in Korka's house.

Lol

Having memorised the first 10 digits of pi back in high school, it was really obvious to me. Of course, I had to consider whether the puzzle would round the numbers or not...

christ almighty.
Going to assume this is exaggeration, but that's still pretty incredible

After the dot hint it became apparent. Then it was crtl+alt and googling pi.

Can't say I would have figured it out without that one though... so many math puzzles. I failed hard on pretty much all of them...

Lolz. You're right about it! Usually, students would say that their math lessons are unnecessary in our daily lives. But, here it is, that day where we need to memorize the 10digits of pi came in handy.

Uuuuh, thank you SO MUCH!

I never would have got this in a million years.

One of the hints was something like "imagine there is a decimal point after the 3" so I was thinking "ok so it's 3.1 4.1 5.9 2.6 and then..... OH FFS". I'm worse than I thought at following instructions
