The Experience Points Podcast

Very interesting and in-depth podcast about games, game communities, game mechanics, and the game industry. I look forward to this every week.

I’ve been listening for about a year and a half now, and I’ve got to say these guys are criminally underrated. Their debriefs, even if I don’t agree with many of them, are very well thought out and often lead to you having a better understanding about what works/what didn’t in a game. For example, their breath of the wild debriefs were incredibly funny and engaging, and underscored what made that game so special. Their weekly discussion topics are refreshing to listen to as opposed the usual news roundup of other podcasts. Finally, their end of the year content is always really fun to listen to.

EXP is always a treat to listen to. At the start of the episode, I don't know whether I get a thoughtful review, a nostalgic trip, or a hilarious debate, but it is always a good time.

I've been listening for I think a couple of years now. Always fun and insightful, the kind of podcast where I wish I could sit down with the hosts and continue the discussion after the episode. Also a good way to get the gist of what's happening in some of the genres and consoles that I'm not active in.
