I've had this chat with PR people and they know that supporting smaller sites and freelancers makes sense and would help build a healthier games media.
The problem is game publishers pretty much exclusively want GI cover stories or an IGN First and anything smaller isn't worth it.

I don't understand this mentality as long as the person/website has reputable people. How does it hurt you to provide a code? With how hard it is to get publicity for games of all sizes even "small" coverage seems like it would only help?

An update: I just got done with @yenpress.com and hoping to have @sevenseasentertainment.com’s releases done today. I will be publishing what I have this afternoon, but will keep working on the others once I am back from my medical test tomorrow afternoon. 🫠
Due to technical issues, our November 2025 releases list will be published with rolling updates as I ( @harleygin.bsky.social ) am currently manually adding every entry, so it may take a moment.
