Pause Your Game

We are back at full strength this week, with Beth and Brad rejoining the show! Our main topics this week focuses on Twitch rolling out a new tipping program—serving as an easy—and somewhat deceptive way for Twitch to make tons of cash. We also continue our discussion of G2A, with their recent effort to appease developers by creating a royalty program; a step in the right direction, but still just a step. But, that's not all! Ubisoft continues to fight against the impending Vivendi take over by offering reduced stock to employees, and China starts requiring all Mobile games to go through a approval process. So pause your game and sit back for another episode of your favorite gaming podcast!
