Good Morning CoinDropers and thanks for being here with us your support can't be understated and it truly means a lot to us. I hope you're all having a decent week at the very least but to make it better we've got a new episode for you to enjoy.
Mike guest hosted with Russ today and they talked about the upcoming free-to-play MMO from Guild Wars developer NCSoft. Their new game, Throne and Liberty is set in the Lineage II universe but will it deliver a great game or will it be cut off at the knees like the Dark Knight in Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail but with microtransactions instead of swords? We'll find out on 7 Dec when it launches but for now, all we can do is speculate.
Mike poses a word of caution about the assumed Grand Theft Auto VI trailer that is said to premiere in less than a month. The tweet never specifically said "GTA VI" We're optimistic but with Take Two's latest slap in the face to gamers, we're not holding our breath.
Then finally is AI art good for the industry? Or is it a contributor to the mass layoffs at studios? Russ and Mike share their thoughts on how AI art has affected and changed the industry.
