Utterly Nonsense

In the Act 3 finale of the "WTF Happened to Multiversus?" saga, we reach our boiling point with this soon-to-be vaporware of a game. This is a roast of every half-baked feature that Player First Games put on the pass while Warners went out for a smoke and let the money burn. Did dysfunctional management ultimately get the entire development team fired, or was the spark of inspiration that Multiversus once had dwarfed by a blaze of freemium nontent? Find out in this sizzling conclusion.Get your fill of nonsense on utterlynonsense.com.

Continuing the Multiversus Saga in Act 2 is our painstaking breakdown of the complete continuity of the game's lifespan, from the announcement of its existence to the pronouncement of its death. Watch as the player count enters a free fall that would make Alan Eustace's record blink. Did the brilliant minds at DummyYouBe really expect a turnaround after holding their own game hostage for a year, or did they give up and pull the plug the minute it didn't earn a 1 billion dollar return? Join us as we chronicle the events leading up to the ultimate question of what went wrong with this game.For more nonsense, check out utterlynonsense.com.

WB's latest in a gaggle of live-service gaming goof-ups brought us begrudgingly back from the bliss of death to talk about how things went so wrong so fast. Is the media giant solely to blame for this particular fiasco, or did the developers steer this vehicle way off course? Maybe they should've taken that left turn at Albuquerque. In Act 1 of 3, we get up to speed by taking a small detour back on memory lane before embarking on the long trip across the timeline of events which sentenced Multiversus to where it is now... waiting on death row.For more of the Utterly Nonsense Podcast, check out utterlynonsense.com.
