  • Episode 185: Conflict Resolution
    Feb 28 2025

    Matt & Geoff are joined by TroytlePower to discuss when a game is considered to not have combat, what "combat" means, and where its presence or lack serves the gameplay experience.

When genre conventions are subverted all the time and there's more than one binary choice through obstacles in a game; why are we Fighting in the first place?
