Episode 252

As video game enthusiasts, a lot of the time we can't stop playing games. However, as functional adults, there are stretches of time when video games lose their luster, and other interests and obligations occupy our time. Today, we talk about these so called "gaming droughts" and how we navigate them. As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Monster Hunter Wilds, Crimson Desert, Silent Hill f). This episode was recorded in April 2026. Intro and outro music composed for Gametalk by Dylan Chase.
