This week's GamesBeat Decides podcast was already a long one, and then -- right before we were going to upload it -- we had to make it even longer. That's because hosts Jeffrey Grubb and Mike Minotti pulled an emergency bonus session to talk about the breaking news that Electronic Arts has closed Dead Space developer Visceral and canceled its Star Wars game. That revelation is shocking on its own, but EA made it even more startling with a candid blog that explains why it made this choice. Put simply: loot boxes. EA only wants to invest its money in games-as-a-service (GaaS), and Visceral's Star Wars was a single-player linear game. It turns out that it's difficult to sell loot boxes in something like that, so EA has found it difficult to justify its budget. In addition to EA pulling the Band-aid off of one of its multiple Star Wars projects, we talk about some other news involving loot boxes. For example, is Hearthstone too expensive and why doesn't the ESRB game-rating organization think this is gambling? In the second half, we talk about Awesome Games Done Quick because speedrunning is pure and good. On top of that, Mike and Jeff discuss some recent releases they've spent some time with, which include the following: Cuphead Divinity: Original Sin II Golf Story South Park: The Fractured But Whole --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/gamesbeat-decides/support

Doc is the droid owned by Dodger the game's main character. He stole her and she’s his field medic. She travels on a rolling base covered by a cylindrical body. The original design was based off of McQuarrie’s Artoo design; the same design that inspired BB-8. However, the big difference for Doc is that her head docks to her body allowing her to detach and help in interesting way. Doc will presumably heal you on game. Her body is white. The detailing (like where Artoo is blue) is red. She has a disc antenna on top of her heard like Chopper. In concept art she uses the claw arm attached to her head pickpocket a Stormtrooper. She is featured in all main cast group concepts. Doc's head detaches and floats around Dodger's shoulder, hacking doors and healing him in concept art. POD PEOPLE: We read your emails!
