Norderlanders: A Gaming Podcast

E99: Monetization is good for games according to ex-CEO


Listen Later

Another Week has Passed which means it's time for another Episode!

We start the episode out like we usually do, our weekly Catch-up! Followed by the games we've played. Emil restates his opinion on Wild West from last week, some more Deep Rock Galactic talk and more!

Our first news story of the week is about Ubisoft. We have a quick round-up with everything that has happened over there this last week, and share our thoughts. We discuss what we think about their cancelations and the delay that is happening.

Other than that, we talk about that Microsoft is doing it right way with Discord. They have now implemented voice-chat with cross-play! Listen to our thoughts regarding this!

Lastly, according to a former CEO of EA, developers who leave out monetization methods from their games are: "some of the biggest fucking idiots"... We talk about the backlash, we talk about how monetization should be done, and more!
