What is a game exactly? + Automation in Gaming + Total War | Pretty Good Gaming Podcast #47



This podcast was first made available to our Patreon Supporters on Thursday, January 18! In this week’s podcast, Mike, Jake and Liam discuss some awesome topics raised by our Patrons. What really defines a game anymore? The effects of automation and the rise of robotics on society (no honestly, that’s a question we tried to answer) and a couple of questions on Total War.

Host: Mike Williams
With: Jake Kulkowski and Liam McKelvey
