Description

This week, the crew goes back to the metaverse to talk about the many stories coming out of Meta's Horizon Worlds. From lower than forecast engagement numbers to stability issues to low team morale to doctored footage of legs, it seems like Horizon just can't catch a break. Your hosts Eric Kress, Laura Taranto and Ethan Levy also discuss Take Two's shutdown of Playdots studio and why you should expect more as Zynga gets integrated into its new parent company, player response to Overwatch 2's Battlepass and what it's tuning implies about decision making inside the studio, the second death of G4TV and more.
