    How Do New MMO's Work?, Marathon has a story, The best Gaming Podcast # 587

    How Do New MMO's Work?, Marathon has a story, The best Gaming Podcast # 587 Busy week we leap into handhelds, steam sales, consoles, and even more in todays podcast This is an "Inside Baseball" podcast episode covering: Marathon (Bungie) - Years-long story plan announced, sold ~1 million copies, which is low for Bungie but better than expected. Nobody's really talking about the story though, it's all about gameplay. Smooth Motion vs DLSS - Smooth Motion is system-level frame interpolation that doesn't require game support. DLSS requires game support or an injector. Smooth Motion can actually have lower latency in some cases. Subnautica 2 - Early access date announced. Lots of legal drama between Krafton and Unknown Worlds. Legal distractions can pull developer focus away from creative energy. A Plague Tale: Resonance/Legacy - Asobo working on a prequel with character Sofia. Mind's Eye (Build a Rocket Boy) - DLC containing names of people who "sabotaged" the game. Devs claiming they were spied on. Comparison to Days Gone's blame game. The game probably wasn't good enough to sabotage in the first place. Directive 8020 - Alien Isolation vibes, Supermassive Games, excited for the space horror feel. Lego Batman Legacy - PC specs controversy, recommended specs seemed high for a Lego game, director clarified they had to put something up for preorders. GameStop trying to buy eBay - Fascinating, weird business move. Devil Wears Prada 2 poster - Artist paid to mimic AI art. Trojan horse for normalizing AI in entertainment. Xbox record monthly active users despite not selling much hardware. Denuvo DRM crack - Hypervisor bypass, but turning off hypervisor makes your system less secure. Exodus - Smart marketing strategy with short gameplay trailers on their own YouTube channel. Outer Worlds Spacer's Choice update - Some graphical issues. Microsoft handheld / ROG Xbox Ally - Handheld market is actually very small. Project Blackbird cancellation - MMO genre is expensive and risky. Fortnite/Roblox player drops - Even small percentage drops could mean huge money redistribution to other game Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5zKbGokI0oI6SeZrHTfJjA/join Substack https://substack.com/@acgreview https://amzn.to/43LY1Gv Amazon Affiliate Link Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5zKbGokI0oI6SeZrHTfJjA/join Each Friday ACG and some pals Silver, Rej, Abssi, and Jonny from https://www.twitch.tv/jonnyplayslive get together to discuss games, life, books, movies and everything else.
