The Complaint Round Table
In this episode, we decide to air out some of our recent grievances. Jaa talks the lack of direction in BOTW, Christina talks about gamer entitlement, and our special guest, Mikey Kenny, talks about Ni No Kuni 2....
In the 2018 State of the Gaming Union, we discussed trends, but one we forgot to talk about was Games as a Service (GaaS for short). Ubisoft seems to be taking steps to cement GaaS as part of their business model, and if Ubisoft it doing it, it means the trend is in full effect. How will this affect Ubisoft directly? How will this affect the rest of the industry? What are the positives and negatives of GaaS on gamers and gaming communities?

Decent F2P Hearthstone player. Sad that he lost the Wii that had Wrecking Crew on it. Would be happy if the only game ever made was M.U.L.E. Gragtharr on Skywall-US. Garresque on Ravencrest-US.
