Season 2 Episode 1: Session zero / Video game manipulations
Hello from the rolling kia studio.
This episode I reintroduce the pod to potential (hello!) new listeners, then I go on a 20-minute manic rant about how video games are messing with our brain chemistry.
This is probably not the best way to start season 2 as I'm not usually so bombastic... However, it was on my mind...
I hope you enjoy the Pod, and I hope you all get to roll some dice this week!

I reference this video a few times. Geeky Pastimes makes the points in a much finer way than I do. (Probably why they have 44k subs huh?) I use some of their info in my rant I would like to give credit where it is due.
I read this before I spouted off:
Understanding Video Games and Dopamine Release
And this:
Designing Addiction: The Twisted Psychology Of Game Design
Lastly, I watched this as well.. though it was really just part of the rabbit hole. I did find the loss aversion portion interesting. (Starts at 6:29)
How Video Games Manipulate You Into Spending Money
My Blog From 2013... I have had some of these thoughts for a while.
Microtransactions are destroying my love of video games.
Have a wonderful Day !
