Meanwhile, one dad's teen dives headfirst into Dungeons & Dragons, sparking memories and hopes of future family campaigns. Plus: Elden Ring co-op fails, Fortnite struggles on old hardware, and the eternal dad debate - do you cave when that shiny new console is calling your name from behind the GameStop counter? 👨‍👧‍👦 This podcast is for all gaming dads trying to balance family, fatherhood, and frame rates. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes where we explore the joys and challenges of being a dad who games. 💬 Topics Covered: Elden Ring: Nightreign – worth it for dads?
