This week, it seems that, to no surprise, that the Epic store is not making money. Jesse Cox reveals some unsettling bullshittery being a youtube creator and why 5 min gaming news is going to come to a slow or close. The Escapist staff mass resigned due to corporate shenanigans from Gamur, the parent company. This also means Yatzee is no longer doing Zero punctuation. But no worries, the old staff created a new organization called   Second Wind! I cant wait to see what the team comes up with funded by the people that matter - the viewers and fans. we also wanted to talk about Icewind Dale Source code being lost so a remaster might not be a thing. PC Gamer published that article https://www.pcgamer.com/with-icewind-dale-2s-source-code-lost-for-good-a-full-remaster-remains-impossiblebut-modders-managed-to-overhaul-the-game-with-their-own-enhanced-edition

This week there was a LOT of blizzard to go through but some of the highlights of the week was XBox cracking down on ulicensed hardware mfg for controllers, Nintendo putting some rather insane rules in place for competitions on a commercial basis. Capcom speaking out about mods being no better than hacking and cheating. Beyond that Blizzcon is going on and boy did they drop some juicy bits! Then there is Taimanin RPG Extasy placing its playerbase in Fremium Currency debt due to an error on the developer's part. --- wtf is even this?

With Reckless Abandon #udpbroadcast #podcast #gaming #news #discussion @imeigaming @thenordiccajun

This week we talk about Game Development issues. Between lay offs and hostile work environments, we did have a lot to say. Much respect to the dev community on this one.

On the chopping block, Ubisoft ex exec, CDPR unionization, Dragon Age Dreadwolf layoffs after unionization, BBC talks about not allowing scraping of their content but still using Large Language Models for generating AI journalisim, Epic Games being more inclusive to more industries with regards for charging for their engine in production outside of game development, and 23andMe with 7 million users data exposed and being auctioned off on the dark web (no security breech found, suspected existing darkweb user username/passwords were used to break into accounts and take data.
