Not a great week for Bungie, and initial reports just look like it's going to get worse as we learn more.
Always Online Podcast: Bungie's Destiny 2 Layoff Debacle, The Day Before's Newest Delay, & Ghostcrawler's New MMO Ep 495
Imagine that, The Day Before is back on Steam, but the "launch" has been delayed and will now be an early access that costs you $39 to get into with no launch window announced. Cryptic Studios and Bungie's Destiny 2 teams are being laid off in some of the worst ways possible, Ghostcrawler is heading yet another team working on an MMO that is at best years away, and Throne and Liberty is making monetization changes! All that and more on this week's Always Online!

Sometimes nostalgia is nice, but is it enough to get you to try out a new free-to-play MMO?
You can play ALL the games, but some just keep enticing you.
Things always change...but that doesn't mean they always IMPROVE!
