Welcome to Pixels and Polygons. This is a conversational podcast centered around gaming, where my guests and I answer a question based on the episode topic. This week’s episode is…
GAMEPLAY OR NARRATIVE I w/ Luis
What is more important to you, narrative or gameplay? Are there some games that you’ve enjoyed with poor narrative but great gameplay or vice versa?
