Join us on Episode 47 of Plugged as we dive into the latest frustrations and surprises in the gaming and tech world!
First up, we discuss the backlash against Arena Breakout Infinite (ABI) for breaking its promise to avoid "pay-to-win" features. Despite earlier assurances, the game launched with the ability to purchase in-game currency, secure storage rentals, and other monetization strategies that have left players fuming. We also touch on the impact this has had on the in-game economy and the community's response.
Next, we check in on Helldivers 2, where frustrated players are letting the AI faction invade Super Earth due to ongoing dissatisfaction with game updates. It seems the game’s troubles are far from over.
In a wild turn of events, a man revealed on The Ramsey Show that he amassed $50,000 in credit card debt by gifting subs on Twitch over the course of a year. This cautionary tale serves as a reminder to support streamers responsibly.
We then share some good news for fans of Hi-Fi Rush and The Evil Within: Tango Gameworks, recently at risk of closure, has been acquired by Krafton Inc., ensuring the studio's future and the potential for a Hi-Fi Rush sequel.
In movie news, the new Borderlands film is a major flop, currently holding a dismal 9% on Rotten Tomatoes. We explore why video game adaptations often struggle in theaters and discuss what it takes to make a successful one.
Finally, we delve into a light-hearted yet revealing deep dive into Ash Ketchum's Pokémon journey, where it’s discovered he only caught about 7% of all available Pokémon. Does this make him the most overrated Pokémon Master?
We also cover Google’s latest move to kill the popular adblocker uBlock Origin through a Chrome update, and what this means for the future of ad-free browsing.
Tune in for all this and more as we break down the biggest stories impacting gamers and tech enthusiasts alike!
