In a bad-vibes moment, they’re denying a huge outlet like IGN a review code. No matter what I think of IGN in particular (nothing good tbh), that’s not something I can find a real explanation for other than “We made DC’s Gollum and want to avoid bad press as long as we can”.

    That game might have had a chance to find its audience but with the surprise success of Palworld it’s now definitely DOA.

      Wait, why are the two related? People will be playing one and not have time for the other once it comes out?

        Yup. That’s exactly it. There a lot of people in the “no particular fandom” category that can determine a sales winner and loser.

      Palworld is a flash in the pan and I predict its count will drop in a couple of weeks. If Suicide Squad fails, its because its a bad game.

      • Seriously Palworld reminds me of so many games that are over hyped and then forgotten a month or two later.

        It doesn’t help that the company behind it, Pocketpair, has a treck record of not finishing their games

      I don’t see how the two are related, different games with different concerns.
