Scatterbrained - Enjoy Your Games!

Craw and Joe are back and shaking things up! We first talk about an article that says it’s okay to play video games for long hours! Then we chat about our times with Pirate Yakuza, Avowed, a bit of Monster Hunter, and our thoughts on Split Fiction after being halfway through. Come hang out with us since it’s been a while!


Games we talked about this week: Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza, Avowed, Monster Hunter Wilds, Split Fiction


Article of the Week: Perceived value of video games, but not hours played, predicts mental well-being in casual adult Nintendo players


If you are experiencing any sort of mental health distress, or just need someone to talk to, please call 988 contact some of these resources gathered on https://www.nimh.nih.gov/
