Join my guest and I as we delve into gaming communities, what we like about them, what we dislike about them, and the effect that they have on the games we love.

On today's episode, my guest and I discuss what motivates us to play what we play and what drives us to avoid what we don't play. Many of us are familiar with the memes about "relaxing" games like anything from Fromsoft or any competitive multiplayer game or the second jobs we may find ourselves having in many live service games. What keeps us coming back? We asked a lot of questions in this episode and may not have answered a single one, but we definitely gained a lot of perspective on ourselves and why we play what we play.
