The Problem with Episodic Games | Random Ramblings #1
Episodic games were all the rage back in the mid 2010s, but they have fallen out of fashion ever since. In this mini video essay, I explain why I feel this has happened, based on HARD SCIENTIFIC FACTS. You are welcome to disagree and present your own ideas in the comments down below and, in case you have a great episodic game to recommend, let me know!
