The Debatable Podcast

Long-time friend of the show (and real-life bestie) DANIEL TAYAG joins me for what might be the last episode of Debatable. We talk our favorite video games and gaming experiences of 2018. We talk the juggle of life vs. long duration games, being a Paragon, loot boxes, depth and quality of gaming in both the indie scene and AAA, and how much is a short game worth. We touch on GTA Online, Destiny 2, Overwatch, Red Dead Redemption 2, Fallout, Dead Rising, Horizon Zero Dawn, Spider-Man, A Way Out, Hellblade, and Overcooked.

Finally, Dan and I talk about the State of the Podcast and the possible future.
