OLD AGE gaming + Best Sad Games + More! | Pretty Good Gaming Podcast #56

This episode of the Pretty Good Gaming Podcast was first released to Patrons on Thursday, March 22. This week, no big chair adjustments or anything like that, but we do talk about the idea of gaming well into old age, our favourite sad games, what games we’d love to see ported to the Switch and answer more cracking Patreon questions, like “best witch?” and “How do you guys deal with crippling loneliness and the unshakeable feeling that one is wasting their life; stuck in an endless cycle of self-sabotage and self-destruction?” Enjoy!
