It's Mailbag time! In this episode, Pat and James continue the Christmas tradition of answering listener questions in their third annual Mailbag episode.
We want to say a special thank you to everyone in our discord community, both for the questions and just being with us over the years. When we started the podcast we always hoped that something like this would happen, but realising it is something else all together. You are all the reason we continue to record episode after episode - it makes it all worthwhile.
So grab a cocoa, snuggle up and listen in as we ramble, philosophise, and criticise our way through the mailbag!

On this episode, we discuss:
Why exactly is Dark Souls 2 a bad video game? We’ve both slagged off the dark sheep of the From Software catalogue in multiple episodes - and now you’re finally going to find out why.
Which genre has stood the test of time the best so far? What genres have evolved into something fundamentally better, and which ones have either stayed the same or even gotten worse?
What are your favourite books and why? Luckily we constrained ourselves to 2 books each otherwise this episode might never have ended.
We answer these questions and many more on the 77th episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!
Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen K
Outro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to another
Storvki Main: Andriesh Gandrabur
Be Careful: Mieko Ishikawa
If you’re enjoying the show, we’d love it if you'd rate us, drop a review, or join up to our community discord server! We take listener suggestions for games, host game nights for our multiplayer titles, and we love criticising and discussing all video games, old or new.
