Retronauts Episode 713: Collecting Shiny Things
You can't "collect" podcasts but don't let that stop you.
Next to mass murder and skill trees, collecting stuff serves as a staple mechanic of video games the world over. Coins, stickers, gems, ingredients, blood; you name it, a video game wants you to hoard it—sometimes without the promise of a reward!
Host Stuart Gipp and collaborator Dave Bulmer discuss the phenomenon of collecting stuff in video games, highlight a few of their favorite shiny things to gather, and just have a generally pleasant conversation for about 100 minutes. This podcast is perfect background listening while playing an open world game searching for crap!
Description: All that glitters! Join Stuart Gipp and Dave Bulmer for a casual, free-wheeling discussion of the wacky world of gaming’s greatest collectables.
