If anyone out there is similar to me, sometimes you get tired of the hyperbole from most other gaming podcasts. The Patch is a refreshing take on the formula.
They don't exaggerate. They aren't unfair to differing viewpoints. They won't discuss a games flaws without equally describing its strengths.
Gus, Ryan, Ashley, and others are respectful to the medium while also showing a significant depth of knowledge. This is the type of gaming discussion which others should emulate.
Not only is it good natured, but somehow they can make the topics entertaining even if you have no interest in the content itself.
I have spent hours listening to the banter and discussions. It is the panel of hosts that keep the show as great as it is. Each person brings another form of genius to the group.
Unfortunately, the show is going on hiatus starting in 2017 to be 'retooled'. It saddens me that we will be losing this for a time and I hope others out there are as big a fan as I am. I pray that it returns in a stronger way than ever before.
