A note about the sound quality, there's some pinging toward the end of the podcast that's a result of me holding the microphone in my hand and it makes that sound when I switch hands. I'll have the mic back in an actual tripod for next time.
I used the Blue Yeti mic this week so the audio may not be great.

This week we talk about the Chamber of Progress, an astroturf thinktank funded by Apple that will probably get this podcast booted off of Apple's network. Apple doesn't want legislation forcing them to allow sideloading of apps, and they pay good money to the Chamber of Progress to get the public on their side. Also I talk briefly about Microsoft buying Activision, Sword of Legends going free to play, and Ubisoft again.
Follow the money. Enjoy today's episode.

In this episode of Online For Maintenance, I talk about all sorts of MMO disappointments from Gamigo publishing Fractured Online, the sunsetting of Eden: Eternal, and Kakao Games blowing up the ArcheAge economy for what seems like the millionth time.

In the first episode of Online For Maintenance, I go on a rambling chatter about stolen art assets and Ubisoft's new NFT program, as well as MMO Fallout's policy on covering NFTs and why I hate every aspect of it. New episode every Tuesday(?).
