Pixelaged Episode 2 - Gacha 101

Join us as we stroll through the evolution of gacha gaming, swapping stories about everything from the old stigma of mobile games to the eternal struggle of optimizing characters without losing your soul. Between teasing each other’s gaming habits, they joke about crease ratings, and discuss immersive worlds. It’s a light chat that feels like two friends evaluating one's addiction.

A huge thank‑you to Ron — a very talented musician and excellent guitarist whose work brings our intros and outros to life. You can find his music at the links in the episode description.
