PlayerUnknown wants to listen to your Prologue: Go Wayback feedback, just not all of it
There are two Brendan Greene's (or PlayerUnknown's, however you prefer to refer to the game dev). There is the Brendan Greene who wants to listen to the feedback offered up by those partaking in the early access period of his current game, "Prologue: Go Wayback". And there is the Brendan Greene who doesn't, for quite reasonable reasons. Both of these are still him, and both show up in a recent interview. "Read more"

PlayerUnknown's Prologue: Go Wayback! still has a terrible name and is out now in Early Access
Open world Czech Bohemia-inspired orienteering game Prologue: Go Wayback! from PlayerUnknown Productions and PUBG creator Brendan Greene is "out now in Steam Early Access" - and that's very inconvenient, because we still don't have consensus on a nickname. Back in 2017, RPS jocularly renamed PUBG "Plunkbat" - a show of feistiness that surely resulted in no angry emails (genuinely, I don't know if it did), and which I recently consecrated by "writing it on the wall" of a random shed in Scotland. We a...
