This week, we're diving headfirst into the gaming debates you've been having in your head. Is the "obvious path to victory" in Civ 7 a sign of limited strategy, or are we just insane? We're calling out the "illusion of critical thinking" and giving a massive shoutout to No Man's Sky for their epic redemption arc. You all kept at it, and we respect that.

Also on the docket:

  • Can a video game actually represent real-world events, or is it always an oversimplification?
  • Are some games designed to let you win, just to give you that winner's high?
  • Did fighting games really kick off the E-Sports phenomenon?
  • The ultimate debate: Is GoldenEye still the FPS G.O.A.T.? We're a bunch of nerds, but we'll take that great headshot every time. πŸ˜‰
  • Does couch gaming still have a place in this modern, online world?
  • And for the final boss question... which do you prefer as a pastime: edging gardens or playing with yourself online?

It's an episode where we mention a lot, share some hot takes, but it's all just for entertainment.

Tune in now for the full chaotic discussion!
