Summary
In this episode of Geeks From The Multiverse, we're tackling one of gaming's biggest debates: cinematic games versus gameplay-first games. Are unforgettable stories and movie-like experiences pushing gaming forward, or are we losing something when gameplay takes a back seat? Expect nostalgic examples, hot takes, a little ranting, and plenty of discussion about what actually makes a game memorable. From The Last of Us and Red Dead Redemption 2 to Doom and Diablo, we're asking the big question: are you playing a game... or watching a movie? 👍 If you're listening on YouTube, jam that like button and subscribe so you don't miss future episodes. 🎧 Check out our GFTM podcast hub here: www.geeksfromthemultiverse.com
