Wassup PC gamers, welcome back to the PC Gamer Chat Log podcast. I hope your week has been good so far. It’s well and truly flu season for me, and I’m sick for the second time in a month which has cut my gaming time pretty drastically. How am I ever going to ascend past scrub status and git gud?

We’ll be talking about the games we’ve tried to take seriously, what we thought of that process and ultimately, whether we think getting good at a videogame is as fun as it sounds.

Whether you’re sweating away in every ranked mode you come across or happily stick to the casual side of your favourite games, we’d love to hear what you think. Pop over to thePC Gamer forums, where we’ll have a thread up about this week’s episode. You can share your own experiences and thoughts about “gitting gud,” and feel free to tell us if we’re actually all a bunch of scrubs. I promise I’ll only cry a little bit.

You can check out the PC Gamer Chat Log podcast on a whole bunch of podcast platforms:

If you prefer some faces to go with your voices, you can also check out the podcast over on YouTube:

Don’t forget to check us out over on thePC Gamer forums, too! We’ll be checking in every week to see what you lovely lot have to say about each week’s episode, and joining in the discussion ourselves.
