Welcome back to The Tavern.In Part 3 of our chat with Rin Karigani, we’re talking about the price of adventure - and no, not just in gil or gold.From EXP boosts and in-game shops to cosmetic content and DLC's, we explore how monetisation systems are changing the world of RPGs and MMOs. Some of it works. Some of it doesn’t. Some of it makes us want to roll a D20 for sanity.We also dive into the real side of content creation - the highs, the burnout, the community wins, and why we keep hitting record anyway.And of course, we wrap things up by talking about the upcoming games we’re excited for this year.Grab your favourite drink and pull up a chair - it’s time for another deep dive.🎧 Catch up on the rest of the episode:▶️ Part 1: https://youtu.be/-RO7144TpaY▶️ Part 2: https://youtu.be/3X4CQtB_wWg🎙️ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Gd7pcAL5PYzySXoODSGNi?si=3a8M-SXgTU-leBH8U67AeQ🍻 Join The Tavern Discord for extra discussion, behind-the-scenes chats and RPG/MMO chaos:https://discord.gg/73KfecTgEW🔗 Follow the podcast:Twitter (X): https://x.com/sqsppodcastBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/sqsppodcast.bsky.socialYouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@chefmonkeygaming🔥 Guest: Rin KariganiTwitch: https://twitch.tv/RinKariganiTwitter (X): https://x.com/RinKariganiYouTube: https://youtube.com/RinKarigani🎶 Music Credit:Huge shoutout to https://youtube.com/@FraserEdwards for the incredible track featured in this episode.
