Earn your seat in the next test
Death Stranding is out, and that is what makes it worth covering: you can play it tonight, and what you write goes on your tester profile.
- It counts. Reports build the profile we read when a studio asks us for testers. An empty profile is why most applications go nowhere.
- First in line. Cover Death Stranding and you hear about its next playtest before it shows up on this page.
- Two minutes is enough. One bug, one performance note, one honest paragraph. That is the kind of thing a developer can act on.
