On this episode of The BS Show, we’re taking a critical look at some of the most pressing issues in gaming right now. We start with Nintendo’s decision to charge an additional $20 for DLC tied to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild—pushing the total cost of an 8-year-old game to $90. Is this a reflection of shifting industry standards or a step too far?
Next, we examine a new report showing that 58% of all PC gaming revenue now comes from microtransactions, raising questions about long-term sustainability and player experience. We also cover Ubisoft’s legal troubles surrounding The Crew, and what this could mean for digital ownership and access to purchased content.
In a concerning statistic out of Japan, 19% of people in their 20s report spending so much on games that it’s affecting their ability to afford basic living expenses. And finally, we discuss the newly revealed accessibility options in Death Stranding 2, including features that allow players to bypass boss fights entirely.
Clear analysis, honest questions, and zero spin—just the facts and the fallout.
