Zwar bestellen wir Battlefield 6 besser noch nicht vor, aber Spaß gemacht hat uns die Beta-Phase dennoch. In Folge 181 des PC Games Podcast plaudern wir über die grandiose Rückkehr des Shooters. Nach dem stark kritisierten Battlefield 2042 warten Fans der Reihe sehnsüchtig auf den Release des neuen Titels am 10. Oktober. Das kurze Anschnuppern in der offenen Beta verspricht tatsächlich einiges.Aus diesem Grund hat Podcast-Host Michi Grünwald seine Redaktions-Kollegen Carlo Siebenhüner und Yannik Cunha eingeladen und das Trio spricht ausführlich über die bisherigen Stärken und Schwächen. Schon einmal vorab: Die brachiale Action im Multiplayer gefällt allen, obwohl sie mit dem Franchise bislang komplett unterschiedliche Erfahrungen gesammelt haben.Auch Vergleiche zu Call of Duty müssen gezogen werden, schließlich belebt Konkurrenz das Geschäft. Ein starkes Battlefield setzt Activision und deren CoD-Entwicklerteams unter Druck. Die derzeitige Phase ist spannend und genau auf diese Tatsache zielt unser Podcast-Trio unter anderem ab. Vielleicht schaffen EA und die Entwickler wirklich das beinahe Unmögliche und brechen in die Phalanx von Call of Duty ein. Die Zeichen dafür stehen nicht allzu schlecht.Lasst uns in den Kommentaren wissen, wie viel Spaß ihr bis jetzt mit der Beta zu Battlefield 6 hattet, oder holt euch der Shooter gar nicht ab? Erzählt uns auch gerne, was ihr noch vermisst und wo ihr Verbesserungspotenzial seht. Jetzt bleibt uns nur noch übrig, euch viel Spaß beim Anhören der aktuellen Folge zu wünschen!Der PC Games Podcast - der offizielle Videospielpodcast der PC Games - erscheint seit über einem Jahrzehnt regelmäßig und liefert dabei wöchentlich gleich mehrere Talks zum riesigen Thema Videospiele.Unser Moderationsteam, Michi Grünwald und Vivi Ziermann, deckt dabei etliche Bereiche ab: Review-Gespräche und Previews zu brandaktuellen Games, nostalgische Rückblicke, Reports, Interviews und vieles mehr. Dabei gibt es natürlich auch immer mal wieder spannende Insights in die Spielebranche und in die Redaktion des ältesten, noch aktiven Videospielmagazins Deutschlands - seit 1992 am Start!Unser Spiele-Podcast ist vollkommen kostenlos zugänglich und neben unseren Webseiten auch auf allen großen Podcast-Plattformen - von Apple Music bis hin zu Spotify - zu finden.

In this special episode, Gresham Harkless emphasizes the importance of embracing the full journey, specifically the difficult and uncomfortable parts that often signal real growth.    He acknowledges that while many people begin a new venture hoping for quick success, true development often doesn't start until the challenges arise — what he refers to as the "failure reps," moments where things get hard and self-doubt creeps in.    Gresham recommends that these painful, questioning moments shouldn't be seen as signs of failure or misdirection, but rather as powerful indicators that you're on the right path and being stretched toward growth.   Moreover, Gresham frames struggle not as something to avoid but as a key part of the process, where resilience is built, purpose is tested, and deeper breakthroughs are unlocked.

In this special episode, Gresham Harkless reflects on the symbolism of the number 212 — the temperature at which water boils, to illustrate a key truth about progress and transformation.    He emphasizes that transformation doesn't occur because of a single moment, but rather due to the consistent build-up of actions and discipline leading up to it, much like how water only begins to boil after being gradually heated.   Gresham expresses a mix of frustration and clarity, acknowledging that while progress can feel slow or invisible at times, it's often right before a breakthrough that challenges intensify.    In addition, he discusses the value of maintaining consistent, purposeful actions, confident that these ongoing efforts will eventually produce tangible, meaningful results — the moment when things truly start to shift.
