Beyond Gaming #12 | The Struggle with Vulnerability & Social Media ft. JM Cruz

Equipped: In-Game & In Real Life

[ENG/FIL]
cw: mental health, suicidal feelings
I’ve only started to branch out to more survival horror games this year. And though I still can’t say it’s my go-to gaming genre, JM Cruz definitely can.
This week, I’m joined by JM Cruz, a good friend and the host of Zero Hour Discussions! In this episode, we dive deep into why JM loves survival horror games and the game that saved his life: Silent Hill 2.
Tune in to find out how our conversation evolved from talking about video games to discussing vulnerability and the current state of people on social media.
JM’S QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
How have you lived your life so far?
