Terraria: Otherworld
The development team from Re-Logic announced today that Terraria: Otherworld, the sorta sequel to Terraria has been canceled, due in part to the idea that they weren't satisfied with the progress the game was making toward being completed.

It's been an interesting day for Electronic Arts and Bioware, with both companies releasing interviews today talking about their hopes that Anthem will learn from their respective failures. For EA, that means learning from Star Wars: Battlefront II's micro-transactions debacle. For Bioware, Mass Effect: Andromeda.
Xbox One Release Date for No Man's Sky Leaked
Not all video game leaks come from big box stores -- some of them come from major companies who usually are good about not revealing stuff. As is the case today with No Man's Sky, which has been slated to come out for the Xbox One for a while now.
State of Decay 2
As part of IGN's State of Decay 2 month of exclusive content, they implied that Undead Labs' State of Decay 2 might end up making its way to Steam after launch. The theory comes from an error message in the PAX East demo build of the game

Once bitten, twice shy. At least, that's how fans of Electronic Arts are feeling after all the fiascos behind Star Wars: Battlefront II. But in a new interview with The Verge, the company claims that they've learned their lesson and will apply it to Anthem.
Wormhole Wars
Sometimes when you're running from one appointment to the other on the PAX East floor, someone will just reach out and ask "can you see my game?" If I got a spare five minutes, sure! This was the case with Wormhole Wars brought to the convention by 1047 Games. 
Acquiring a New Set of Dice from Chessex via PAX East
For the longest time in my personal collection of Doctor Strange-ish items, I have had a proper gaming dice set of speckled black and red design from Chessex, which have both served me well and been the bain of my existence at critical times. 
Getting a Few More Red Flags Packs from PAX East
We're big fans of the crew at Skybound Games, and when we had a brief moment between appointments, we dropped by their booth at PAX East to say hello and check out what they had to offer. Along with playing a brand new game involving movie scripts, we got to snag two new expansion packs for Red Flags.
Giving New Life To The Pre-Cosmos in Genesis Noir
I'm a fan of noir games, but for a lot of the titles we receive in a given year, a lot of them start string and fail miserably after that until the end. When we tried out the brief demo of Genesis Noir from Surprise Attack Games at PAX East, that fear was instantly quelled. 
Revisiting Crimson Keep and All Of Its Perils at PAX East
Back at PAX West last year, we got to try a quick demo of Crimson Keep, and while it was cool to check out, there wasn't a lot of substance to it then. Flash-forward eight months and here we are at PAX East checking out an improved demo of the title from Merge Games.
Looking Ahead to Our Future with The Stillness Of The Wind
One of the last appointments I had at PAX East this year came from the crew at Surprise Attack Games. They had a number of games on display, some we'd seen before and others we hadn't. One of the brand new games on the table for us to see was a game called The Stillness Of The Wind.

More Sega FES news, this time, Sega has announced that they'll be bringing Valkyria Chronicles to the Nintendo Switch.

Catching Up With The Crew Behind Floor Kids at PAX East
The last time we saw Floor Kids, it was a demo at the Nindies Showcase in Seattle before PAX West kicked off the next day. This time around they were on the main floor of PAX East showing off the game in custom-made arcade cabinets for people to play.
