Always Online Podcast: Did BlizzCon Deliver, Can Wayfinder Survive, Farewell OWL, & Initial Ghost MMO Details Ep 496
What a very weird week in MMO and multiplayer gaming. The Overwatch League (OWL) is done and the future looks bizarre, Digital Extremes lays off over 30 and cuts ties with Wayfinder, Tarisland drops a Warrior trailer, DreamWorld isn't dead yet, Greg "Ghostcrawler" Street and Fantastic Pixel Castle talk up their "Ghost" MMO, and we dive into whether or not BlizzCon delivered for Blizzard the way it needed to on all fronts...including World of Warcraft! All that and more on this week's Always Online!
