More Than Just a Game!! | The Game Corner Ep. 96
In this episode, we discuss our recent activities, including yard work and upcoming trips, as well as some gaming news, like the announcement of new Xbox consoles and the Gamescom event. We're particularly excited about the upcoming release of Civilization 7 and share our love for grand strategy games.
We dive into our gaming habits and preferences, talking about how gaming serves as a form of relaxation, entertainment, and community engagement for us. We discuss the challenges of finding time to game amidst other responsibilities and the appeal of multiplayer and communal gaming experiences. We also touch on the tendency to accumulate a large backlog of games and the convenience of portable gaming devices like the Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch.
Additionally, we chat about the challenges of choosing games from a vast library, categorizing games on Steam, and the number of hours we've spent playing certain games. We explore the therapeutic aspect of gaming and how it helps us decompress and relax. The conversation wraps up with a discussion on the importance of accessibility in games and the ability to customize difficulty settings.
