Datamining & Leaks

Episode #203 of the Level Down Games Podcast. On today's show, Bryan & Kyle from leveldowngames.com are back to not talk about Mario Golf: Super Rush just yet.. that's next week! But we do have some thoughts on the recently released Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance and Beasts of Maravilla Island. It's also the end of June, which means half the year is already gone. It's time for Game of the Year So Far! The guys pick their favorites from 2021 so far. From there, a big issue in the gaming community right now is centered on datamining and actual leaks. We go over what has transpired this week and wonder what can be done to prevent things like this in the future. Plus, Cloudscape on Kickstarter for Kickstart My Heart!
