    The Hidden Creator Economy Built on Top of Games, with Nathan Lindberg of Overwolf

    If George Clooney walks into a coffee shop, everyone looks up. If Banksy walks in without the mask, nobody does, and the work outside is worth millions.That's  Nathan Lindberg's description of the gaming creator economy, and he's spent twenty years inside it. GamePro through the print-to-digital collapse. Curse, before it became CurseForge. Seven years at Twitch convincing people that watching someone else play was a real business. Epic, building the NFL zone inside Fortnite. Now VP of Global Brand Partnerships at Overwolf. His argument is that the creator economy we photograph is the smaller one. Sixty-six games account for more than eighty percent of all the time people spend playing, most of them are a decade old, and what keeps them there isn't the publisher's roadmap. It's thousands of people whose names nobody knows, building mods, add-ons, wikis and private servers on top of games they didn't make. We get into what the ladder from first dollar to first million actually looks like, why advertising stopped being a toll, and the single sentence that finally moved publishers after years of losing the argument. In this episode 00:00  Intro 02:19  Nathan Lindberg 02:34  GamePro, Curse, Twitch: what changes and what never does 10:24  Triple-A, indie, and where a creator lands after building something good 11:15  George Clooney walks into a coffee shop. So does Banksy. 13:59  The ladder from first dollar to first million 15:37  Rev share, and the tax problem nobody warns you about 18:21  Do CurseForge, Tebex and the ads actually connect? 20:09  The one number every team is judged on 26:06  The case for advertising, made by the ad guy 31:26  The generational split on ad tolerance 33:14  "What am I getting in return?" 36:49  66 games hold 80% of all playtime 38:07  The wiki maintainers nobody credits, and why tools outlive personalities 40:47  "Like allowing someone to take a highlighter to a Rembrandt" 44:11  PUBG, Hytale, and why indie studios said yes first 45:26  Why "good for the community" never gets past the CFO 47:27  Spotting Arc Raiders before anyone was talking about it 50:24  What GTA 6's creator economy could unlock 54:05  Wrap, and if not now, when? Numbers Worth Keeping 66 games account for more than 80% of all time spent in games. Overwolf shares 50 to 70% of revenue with creators, sometimes up to 80%, and its in-app ads carry an on-screen line saying 70% goes to the creator. The largest apps on the platform have sold for over €40 million. Every department in the company is measured against one metric: creator payouts. Guest Nathan Lindberg is VP of Global Brand Partnerships at Overwolf, the tools and services company behind CurseForge and Tebex. Mentioned: Hytale, the Krafton partnership bringing mods to PUBG, Gamer Grid, Arc Raiders, and the proverb Nathan took from his time at Curse: if you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together. If the CFO conversation is one you keep losing, we built a free Academy program about exactly that. Three short packs on why safety and community arguments die in front of finance, how to read what a public company actually spends, and how to build the one-page case. academy.playerdriven.io New episodes every Tuesday.

    Earnings Everywhere: GTA's Netflix Stunt, Nintendo's Flat 130 Million, and Roblox's Safety Bill

    Three of the biggest names in games reported inside a single week and the headline numbers pointed three different directions. Nintendo's profit nearly doubled. Roblox missed on revenue while its player count rose. Take-Two was hours from reporting a loss. Underneath all of it sat the same question, and it's the one worth asking about your own game: is the pool of players getting bigger, or are you just getting better at extracting from the pool you already have? Greg Posner and Colan Neese are joined by Simeon McMillan, founder of the media and tech stocks newsletter Accrued Interest, who came up through TV, radio and cable ad sales before he started writing about the companies. Plus the debut of Bull or Bear, where we assign the side and make you argue it whether you believe it or not. In this episode 00:00 Cold open and intros 03:05 Rockstar announces a trailer, and premieres it on Netflix 09:27 Greg thinks it's a stunt. Colan doesn't. 12:26 The black hole: why games launching before GTA are already losing share 14:51 Bull or Bear, round one: can GTA 6 hit investor expectations? 18:35 13% attention share against a 2% field 22:16 How to actually read an earnings call, and why EPS is the wrong line 27:51 Nintendo: profit doubled, forecast unchanged, and the tariff asterisk 29:05 The number nobody leads with: 130 million players, flat for three years 37:02 Ocarina of Time, the Zelda film, and Nintendo's two-ponds problem 43:22 How Switch became the value machine by standing still 49:13 Bull or Bear, round two: has Switch 2 already proven itself? 52:35 House notes 53:42 Roblox: what trust and safety actually costs a platform 55:11 Trapped in kid land, and the ad ceiling Roblox can't move 01:00:50 Where to find everyone Numbers worth keeping GTA 6 at roughly 13% demand share against a field where most fall titles sit near 2%. Nintendo's total player relationships flat near 130 million for about three years. Roblox averaging around a minute and a half per experience. Demand-share figures are Colan's own MindGame data at Screen Engine/ASI. Guests Simeon McMillan writes Accrued Interest at accruedint.com, also on Substack. Colan Neese is SVP of Gaming at Screen Engine/ASI and writes Patch Notes on LinkedIn and Substack. Correction: Greg refers to Roblox reporting "yesterday." Roblox reported its Q2 2026 results on July 30, a week before this conversation. Player Driven Live runs every Thursday.

    How AI erased the barrier to cheating (and why trust is the real fix)

    Most anti-cheat scans your game. Anybrain watches how you move. Andre Pimenta, CEO and cofounder of Anybrain, joins Player Driven to explain why your mouse and keyboard are a fingerprint, how AI just made cheating easy for everyone, why consoles are no longer safe, and why the real product isn't detection, it's rebuilding player trust. Episode summary (longer, for YouTube / site) Cheating touches every player, and almost nobody covers it well. In this episode Greg sits down with Andre Pimenta, CEO and cofounder of Anybrain, a company that takes a completely different approach to anti-cheat. Instead of scanning your game's memory, Anybrain reads your inputs, your mouse, keyboard, and controller, because the way you play is effectively a signature that a human can't fake. Andre traces the unlikely path from his PhD on detecting mental fatigue, through workplace wellness and esports performance coaching, to catching aimbots, bots, smurfing, and boosting. Then the conversation gets to the part every operator needs to hear: AI has collapsed the barrier to cheating. You used to hunt a forum or GitHub for a script. Now an LLM writes it and computer vision lines up the shot, and new input-injection devices bring the same techniques to consoles that everyone assumed were safe. But the through-line is trust. Most players genuinely can't tell if they were beaten by a cheater or by someone better, and that doubt is what erodes a game. Andre makes the case for transparency (publishing ban numbers, like Crytek did on Hunt: Showdown), explains how humans stay in the loop on every ban, and shares one of the most surprising uses of the tech: flagging a likely adult on a kids' server from behavior alone, without ever revealing an identity or an exact age. What you'll learn Why behavioral anti-cheat reads your inputs, not your game's memory, and why humans aren't randomHow AI (LLMs plus computer vision) lowered the skill floor for cheating, and why volume is risingWhy "you can't cheat on console" is no longer trueWhy the real damage from cheating is the doubt, not the lossHow transparency and published ban numbers rebuild community trustHow Anybrain estimates a player's age band from behavior to help keep kids' servers safe, without revealing identityWhy cheaters are still bad players (you can automate aim, not game sense)Chapters / timestamps 1:30 The most impossible cheat patterns you'll ever see4:19 From a burnout-detection PhD to anti-cheat9:39 How a cheater looks in the data14:18 Beyond aimbots: bots, parallel economies, smurfing, boosting18:48 The cat-and-mouse game, and why you can't fake a signature20:08 AI erased the barrier to cheating21:18 Consoles aren't safe anymore23:55 Fireball round26:42 Why you can't tell a cheater from a good player31:32 Crytek, Hunt: Showdown, and the case for transparency34:51 Where the humans fit in (appeals and evidence)37:36 Age verification with no ID41:56 Where to find Anybrain, and one thing operators should understand(Times are on the raw-recording timeline. They'll shift by a few seconds once your edit cuts land, re-stamp against the final export.) Notable quotes "As humans, we are not random. We have our own way of playing, and the random is possible to detect, because the way we play games is not random. We have our own signature.""In the past, you needed to look for a forum or a GitHub to get your script. Nowadays, you can use an LLM that will help you create a program.""Most people have no idea if they were killed by someone good or a cheater. At the end, it's about trust that we need to build."About the guest Andre Pimenta is the CEO and cofounder of Anybrain, which he cofounded almost eleven years ago out of his PhD on using AI to analyze human-computer interaction. Anybrain's behavioral platform monitors millions of players and works with studios including Crytek (Hunt: Showdown) and Embark. Andre is based in Portugal.

    Games Can Be Positive in Ways You Can't See | Games for Change 2026

    Mats Steen spent most of his short life indoors in Oslo. To his parents he looked like a young man with no one. When he died, hundreds of people reached out to say they had known him for years, inside World of Warcraft, as a character named Ibelin. His parents had no idea. That story sits at the center of this episode, and so does the question underneath it: how much of what games actually do is invisible to the people measuring them? Recorded on a rooftop in New York at Games for Change 2026, this episode brings together three people running the organization. Susanna Pollack on twenty-plus years of arguing that games carry purpose beyond entertainment. Then Dr. Rachel Kowert and Arana Shapiro on brand-new research that says the panic about kids and gaming is not coming from the evidence.

    Microsoft's Xbox reckoning: layoffs, the Minecraft raid, and the case for ad-funded discovery

    Xbox just laid off thousands, spun off four studios, and cancelled games it had defended a day earlier. Greg Posner and games-industry analyst Colan Neese take apart Microsoft's restructuring memo and land on an uncomfortable read: this wasn't a bad week, it was the bill coming due for a decade of running gaming as a lifestyle business. They dig into the losses (64 cents gone on every dollar spent), the decision to starve Minecraft to prop up everything else, the Game Pass numbers that never made the memo, and the blame pie: how much lands on Phil Spencer, and how much on CEO Satya Nadella. Then they split hard on the future. Colan makes the case that the fix is an ad-funded, one-to-one discovery engine. Greg goes down swinging for a different read of why players won't leave the games they already know. Two live games along the way: ranking Microsoft's biggest IP by revenue (and where the AI got it wrong), and an invest-or-sell round on Xbox's dormant franchises.

    Are private servers piracy? Inside the ESA fight with Nodecraft's Jonathan Yarbor

    Episode description (full): A trade group that speaks for nearly every major game publisher told California lawmakers that running a private or community server is piracy. The catch: you can download a Minecraft server from Minecraft's own website, for free. So what did the ESA actually mean? We brought back Jonathan Yarbor, co-founder of game-server host Nodecraft, to cut through the outrage with the actual law and economics. We break down the difference between a bootleg server that steals an MMO's revenue and the licensed community and private servers most players actually use, why AAA studios walked away from private servers in the first place (hint: 10 to 25 cents per player, per month), and the four-word fix Jonathan thinks changes everything: license, don't litigate. We also get into City of Heroes coming back from the dead, why Minecraft's real magic was never the game itself, and the legal-plus-technical-plus-revenue "trifecta" that's finally making publishers say yes. Context: the ESA's comments came while opposing California's AB 1921, the Protect Our Games Act, which failed committee on June 29 but was granted reconsideration, and the Stop Killing Games campaign says it's taking the fight national. Short description (for feeds/Shorts): The ESA called private servers piracy. Nodecraft's Jonathan explains what it actually meant, why studios killed private servers, and why "license, don't litigate" beats suing your own fans.

    The Biggest Gaming Platform You've Never Heard Of (100M Players a Month)

    Web games went from the thing you played to kill time in study hall to a platform pulling 100 million monthly active users. So why are so many developers still thinking about it like it's 2008? In this episode, Greg sits down with Stein, COO of Poki, the world's largest web gaming platform, to dig into the 2026 State of Web Gaming Report. Poki went from 10 million to 100 million players in six years, runs about a billion gameplays a month, and is the market leader in over 100 countries — and yet it's arguably the biggest gaming platform nobody's talking about. The conversation gets into the gap the report exposes: developers still tend to see web as a nostalgia or legacy channel, while players are rating these games high quality, coming back daily, and treating web as a genuine discovery engine. Stein and Greg unpack what actually makes a web game sticky, why zero-install friction changes everything about how games get made, and how "competing for attention" now means competing with Netflix, TikTok, and YouTube rather than other games. It's a good one for anyone in player support, community, live ops, or game dev who wants a clearer picture of where casual and accessible gaming is actually heading. What we get into: Why web games aren't "casual" anymore, and the data that pushes back on the not-sticky myth (37% of players returning daily, 86% weekly)The perception gap between what developers think web is and what players actually experienceHow players hop through four to five games a session, and why curation beats open uploadWeb as the top of the funnel: discovery, IP and franchise fandom, and players who own consoles and spend real moneyThe attention economy reality, with players multitasking across music, social, and shows while they playWhy rising console and hardware prices are quietly making web the most accessible platform there isThe "it's easy to publish but I'm not sure it's worth it" hesitation, and Stein's pitch to the cautious 36%HTML5, fast update cycles, and how a trending meme can be live in a game an hour laterWhy content updates, not gimmicks, are what keep players coming backCuration as player safety, and why an AI-slop free-for-all isn't the answerAbout Poki: Poki is a browser-based gaming platform built on the idea that the easier you make play to access, the more people get to enjoy it. No downloads, no installs, no account required — just click and play. They work with a global community of developers to curate and release new games daily.

    Inside Call of Duty's Matchmaking, From the Engineer Who Built It with Charlie Olson

    The system that decides whether you have a good night in multiplayer almost never gets explained by the people who actually build it. Today it does. Call of Duty just walked back the biggest matchmaking change in its history. Activision recently published internal white papers explaining parts of how their system actually works, which is rare for an industry that usually treats this stuff as proprietary. Lewis Ward and Greg Posner sit down with Charlie Olson, the engineer who helped architect Call of Duty's matchmaking rating system back in 2015, to walk through what the white papers actually said, what they left out, and what's broken about how the industry thinks about multiplayer matchmaking. "Matchmaking is part of the UX. It's not a technical problem. This is a design problem." — Charlie Olson 👤 About Charlie Charlie Olson is the co-founder and CEO of Invokation Games, a matchmaking- as-a-service company powering ranked play and skill rating systems across multiple multiplayer titles. He helped architect the matchmaking rating system used in Call of Duty starting in 2015 with Call of Duty: Online for Tencent, and the version he helped build is still running, essentially unchanged, in every mainline release since. He spent roughly ten years at Raven Software before leaving Activision in 2020 to launch Invokation. 📋 What You'll Learn - What MMR and SBMM actually are, and the difference most people miss - Where matchmaking fits inside the larger fabric of a multiplayer game - What changed at Modern Warfare 2019, and why players felt it - Why removing skill-based matchmaking makes games sweatier, not casual - The math behind blowouts, retention, and the cascade effect on a player base - Percentile-based versus MMR-based matchmaking, and the one thing Charlie   would change about Call of Duty - Why Elo breaks down when used for matchmaking at scale - What ranked play participation actually looks like across COD titles, and   what that tells you about your audience - What Invokation Games is building, and what studios get wrong about   matchmaking as a buy-vs-build decision ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Intro: why matchmaking is the argument of 2026 01:15 Charlie's background, from medical imaging to Call of Duty 04:00 What MMR and SBMM actually are 05:00 The three-loop framework: where matchmaking fits inside a game 10:00 Modern Warfare 2019 and the move to centralized matchmaking 11:00 Inside the 2024 Activision white papers 15:00 How team balancing actually works and where it breaks 21:00 Why XP is not tied to skill, and why Charlie thinks it should be 23:00 Favorite games: Street Fighter 6, Bloodborne, and the old Sierra adventures 24:00 Blowouts, player fun, and the deprioritization-of-skill test 31:00 The cascade effect: why removing SBMM kills the player base 36:00 Marvel Rivals and engagement-optimized matchmaking 40:00 Percentile matchmaking vs. MMR-based matchmaking 45:00 The one thing Charlie would change about Call of Duty 48:00 Why Elo breaks down when used for skill-based matchmaking 53:00 Ranked play, visible MMR, and the World War II Elo system 57:00 Who actually plays ranked, and what the participation rate reveals 63:00 The compression at the top: why Iridescent isn't what it looks like 68:00 What Invokation Games is building 🔗 Links and References - Invokation Games: https://invokation.games - Activision's 2024 matchmaking white papers (Modern Warfare 3 study) - Activision's 2024 ranked play white paper - Microsoft TrueSkill (referenced) - Engagement-optimized matchmaking research (Marvel Rivals discussion) 🎯 About Player Driven Player Driven is the learning community for people who keep games running.
