Discord Ruins Itself, Five Months of MCON, and More
Overworld Weekly: A Wider View of Video Game NewsShow Notes
Welcome back to the show! This week I work through my feelings about Discord's new verification plans and how it will impact everything — even platforms outside of Discord. After that we run through some news about Riot layoffs, Mewgenics sales figures, and Yakuza Kiwami 3's confusing direction before going through my five months of using the MCON mobile controller. --- Join the Patreon: https://patreon.com/wavelengths --- Chapters: 0:00 - Welcome back to Wavelengths! 0:29 - Discord Age Verification 24:15 - Riot Lays off 2XKO Team 27:17 - Mewgenics makes its money back 33:36 - Yakuza Kiwami 3 and the “bad” remake 46:05 - Five Months of MCON
