Jon Jordan and Jenny Jordan talk through the week's news including:
- [0:52] Jon's been talking to MMOG veteran John Smedley about new FPS Reaper Actual.[2:30] What's interesting about the project is how perceptions about web3 have shaped its vision.[4:31] Steam doesn't allow blockchain and some of the Steam community hates blockchain. [4:51] So the web3 version of Reaper Actual will only be available via its own website.[5:45] Splitting the game into web2 and web3 versions isn't strong from a marketing pov.[8:30] The problem is they'll have a web3 game with most players playing the web2 version.[11:57] Shrapnel has raised $19.5 million for its global launch in Q1 2026.[13:03] It's funny to see how all the Avalanche fanboys ignore Shrapnel now it's moved to Gala.[18:05] Fully onchain game Craft World now accounts for 50% of all transactions on Ronin. [21:40] Ubisoft's forthcoming TGC Might & Magic: Fates is doing a pre-sale on 3rd September.
