Always Online Podcast: Microsoft Beats FTC, Overwatch 2 & OWL's Woes, One Punch Man World, Kart Battle Royale & More Ep 481

The FTC basically got it handed to them by Microsoft as challenges go nowhere and it's likely the Activision Blizzard purchase will close soon. That's great news and so are ABK's financials, but could Overwatch 2 and the Overwatch League be in a bit of a bind as the game preps for a Steam release? We'll dive into some new games coming, including Stampede...a 60-person kart racing battle royale! All that and more on this week's Always Online!

QOTW: Oh man the worst mmo/mmorpg I've played? So many to choose from ,but here's one Magic Man might remember. Does anyone remember Echo of Soul? That 2007 mmorpg that was released in 2013?! I remember you had to buy a founders pack to play this steaming pile of shit. 5 classes on launch and they're gender locked of course. I downloaded and played this game and uninstalled it that same day. I can lump this game in the same category of many generic Korean mmorpg's ,but I actually played this one sadly. And surprisingly enough I think this game is still around somehow to this day. I can't fathom how.
