Episode 26: Mail Bag

from Retro Spectives Hosted by Patrick and James

Over the past year, the Retro Spectives Podcast has started to see a small community of gamers join up to our discord server. We talk old video-games, new video games, and tend to get into a lot of arguments over exactly which ARPGS suck and why. As we end this year, we thought it would be fun to open up our mailbag for questions from these users. And they all delivered with some fantastic questions! We got to talk in depth about games and their mechanics, both from the show and 2019. We got to revisit old arguments and even got into entirely new ones! Thanks to everyone who submitted questions, keep ‘em coming! On this episode, we discuss: What are the worst opinions of both James and Pat according to the other person? It took hours to narrow down from the available possibilities, but we got there in the end. Is there anything that games of the past used to do that new games no longer feature? Were they changed for the better, or has something been lost in the process? How many times can Patrick mention Dark Souls in an hour and 40 minutes? The estimated over/under is 10. We answer these questions from our listeners, and many more on the 26th episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast! We’ll see you in a fortnight to conclude our 2019 wrap up with our GOTY episode! If you enjoyed the episode or wanted to submit questions for future episodes, then come and hang out with us over on discord and for everything else, checkout our website at rsPodcast.net for all sorts of articles about the games we love and hate!
