The Nerd Chat | Episode #89: The Achievement Debate
1Welcome to The Nerd Chat Episode #89: The Achievement Debate. This week on #thenerdchat: Are achievements and trophies bad for gaming? Are you as excited as we are for the upcoming Xbox Developer_Direct? Is it a big deal, little deal, or no deal at all with talent leaving Playground Games to start up Maverick Games? What 10 games would you pick for a Fantasy Critic League in 2023? We talk about all of this and more on this week's episode of #TNC. Thank you so much for listening, and as always, #seeyouonline.
