The Junji Ito game is finally in early access! There's not a "press 'x' to die" event and the characters have enough brain-cells to actually fight back against the horrors, but close enough.

This is one long-ass read, a recap of how microtransactions and loot boxes came to be part and parcel of gaming:

The thing about this is the glaring omission. Valve gets a free pass there, and are even mentioned among the 'great single-player games still being made today'. Like they're completely innocent dudebros in all of this.

Kinda sad.

This seems like a rehash of that "Wilson Box" video from 2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTLFNlu2N_M

(Here's my comment on Shamus Young's blog where I argue that it overstates its case: https://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=41164#comment-1127122)

PAX East loses CD Projekt Red and PUBG Corp amid coronavirus fears
The companies join Sony, Square Enix and Capcom.

The spread of novel coronavirus continues to wreak havoc on gaming conventions, with more major exhibitors pulling out of PAX East. The convention kicks off in Boston this Thursday, but both CD Projekt Red and PUBG Corp have announced at the last moment they won't attend.

CD Projekt Red's North American head of communications, Stephanie Bayer, revealed the studio's decision in a tweet earlier today. "I just found out my team is cancelling our PAX East trip so I will NOT be at PAX East as previously planned," she wrote. The studio's next big game, Cyberpunk 2077, wasn't confirmed to be appearing at the convention.

Gamespot has also confirmed that PUBG Corp has canceled its PAX East and GDC 2020 commitments. These two join a growing list of PAX East cancelations from companies including Sony, Square Enix, Capcom, though the latter will go ahead with its planned Monster Hunter: Festa event.

GDC 2020 has already lost EA, Facebook, Sony, and Kojima Productions, including Hideo Kojima himself.
