Edward is joined by three lovely ladies for a special episode of Gamer Chatter. Our trio of ladies include our lovely Amy, Marcia Webb from The Mommy Gamers, and Shay Sherfinski, Joel Sherfinski’s lovely wife! Joel is the owner of an awesome website called A Band Of Gamers. Edward had a hard time keeping up with these Animal Crossing fanatics but kept things under control and kept Tom Nook at bay while the gang was able to talk about such things as how to make bells, who your favorite villagers are, decorating your town, and much more! We hope you have as much fun listening to this special show as we did doing it! Enjoy!

GETL Podcast says: "In episode 81 we discuss the interesting nuance surrounding narrative and lore elements within video games, and how this interactive medium is both a boon and a curse for lore junkies".
The short answer is, it depends on the game and whether or not narrative is the focus. For example, maybe it's important to provide us with the social commentary that accompanies the fall of civilization as we come face to face with the dark side of humanity in the struggle for survival. On the other hand, maybe we just need to shoot zombies, and that's cool too. The videogame medium is versatile enough to allow for either approach, some combination of both, or something in between.
