Why do some video game genres endure, when others fizzle out? What happens when one of the genres that dies is one that you really happen to love? Graphic adventure games gave us a scare for a while, but text adventures are toast.

Sean and Vinnk talk about Myst, its remake realMyst, its re-remake (also) Myst, and try to pin down its categorization. Is it a walking similuator, or is Myst its own genre now? We discuss other genres that are gone or have changed fundamentally so as to no longer be any fun. And we answer your questions in our latest Denshimail segment!
