Episode 700: Seven Zero Zero

The TD Gaming Podcast reaches its big 700th episode milestone, but unfortunately it covers some boring industry news about Microsoft, Activision, Lies of P, and giantesses in Baldur’s Gate 3.

The news items include:

  • Microsoft closes $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard
  • Phil Spencer: Activision Blizzard games are not coming to Game Pass until 2024
  • Cities: Skylines 2 performance has “not achieved the benchmark we targeted”
  • Cities: Skylines 2 won’t use Steam Workshop for mod sharing
  • Lies of P passes 1 million units sold

Let us know what you think.

  1. Hi guys.

    Thank you for the episode and congratulations to number 700 …. What an amount of episodes!
    I respect your work, even if am not able to listen to every episode. Thank you so much for hundreds of hours of entertainment!

    Regarding this special episode I can’t say so much sadly 🙁

    I don’t play and I never played any COD or guilty gear … so … can’t say anything about that :/
    About modding: I never cared about any mods for any game. Normally I buy games because I like them the way they are and not because I can or have to mod them.

    The only game I played the last weeks was some magic the gathering. I downloaded some smaller games to my switch cause I am flying to Miami next week, so I needed something for the flight 🙂
    The only game i am looking forward is Silksong … everything else did not catch me at all :/

    Sorry for not commenting really constructive or interesting …

    Keep on the good work and please stay healthy!
    Greetings from Germany,
    Ralf
