Intro Music – Final Impasse By Ground is Lava
What we’re playing
Amanda tells us “I’ve spent all my time recently on Board Game Arena playing 6 Nimmit and King of Toyko – plus my regular DND. I did try out Darksiders 3 which I like the mood and theme of – I’m just not good at jumping puzzles lol. I also did 2 rounds of Gang Beasts which is a Fall Guys style brawler but it was not for me. I don’t really like goofy physics.”
Gaming news
PC Gamer reports, “The language around this thing is tailor-made to raise your hackles: “Be Unique. Control. Play. The Beta of Ubisoft Quartz, the first playable NFTs designed by the Ubisoft Strategic Innovation Lab, is coming to Ghost Recon Breakpoint!” I suppose it’s technically true that numbering items makes them unique, but this does seem like a rather weak pitch: ‘limited edition’ cosmetics.” They then took the announcement off youtube after it got 95% dislikes.
PC Gamer also reports, that League of Legends, PUBG, Clash of Clans, and Destiny 2 all with down yesterday. Plus, “Platforms like UPlay and the Epic Games Store are down, while mega-publishers like Bethesda are also affected. AWS boasted in 2019 that over 90% of the world’s biggest game companies use its services, so the number of games that will be affected by this in some way is difficult to be exact about: A lot.”
