Episode Seventeen: Burnout

This episode is about how to avoid Burnout. Sometimes, especially when you’ve been playing the same game for a while, you just aren’t having fun anymore while you game. Nicky and Joe offer a lot of advice on how to keep up some excitement in a game. It mostly boils down to good communication within a group, the more comfortable everyone is with telling the group that they are just not having fun, the easier it is to address the problem early.

There are a lot of different ways to get ahold of us: email, our Forums, Facebook, and Twitter! You can also call and leave a voicemail at +1-773-998-2467
