Doom Eternal S Barista Archvile Is Brilliant Terrible

Look at this dickhead. Dude probably doesn’t even work at Hell’s Cup. Probably just got behind the counter one day and nobody’s got the stomach to tell him he has to leave. The Archvile already has a pretty sour look, proportioned as he is like one of Oddworld’s cretins. Compared to Doom’s roster of snake-people, giant eyeballs and skyscraper-topping goat monsters, he fills the uncomfortable middle stage of an Animorphs transition from man to Imp....

Dota 2 S New Wizard Is A Giant Lady With A Giant Hammer

Valora, the Dawnbreaker, arrived in Update 7.29 on Friday. Story-wise, she’s a cosmic warrior forged from the heart of a star, who fought against chaos but got duffed up and spent thousands of years drifting in the void before crash-landing on a new planet. For someone who failed her gods and has lost everything she knew, she seems pretty chipper. Game-wise, she’s a melee strength hero who Valve classify as a tanky carry....

Eastshade Devs Reveal A New Witchy Rpg Mixing Magic Music And Gardening

No specific release date is confirmed, aside from “next year”. I have to give them credit for the name Songs Of Glimmerwick, which immediately lets you know that this will be about music and magic, and probably have an amount of tweeness. Specific tweeness levels unconfirmed but they’re looking good from the trailer, where you can also clap eyes on some pretty cool-looking gardening, a tree telling you to stfu, and a man earnestly giving you a wooden flute as you head off to magic university....

Elechead Review A Clever Puzzle Platformer With Real Spark

Technically, it’s his head where his electrical currents stem from, which you quickly learn how to throw in order to flip switches from afar, create new platforms and dodge deadly obstacles in order to get from one side of the room to the other. The catch? Elec’s body only has ten seconds of power left when he’s without his head, causing him to explode if he doesn’t reach it in time....

Endless Dungeon Is A Sorta Sequel To Dungeon Of The Endless

“Shipwrecked on a mysterious space station, you’ll need to recruit a team of heroes and protect your crystal against never-ending waves of monsters,” the announcement explains. “Or die trying, get reloaded, and try again!” You can control the squad yourself, or go in multiplayer. And it all sounds quite familiar to me. So what’s the connection? “Fans of our previous game Dungeon of the Endless might want to know: Shipwrecked, again?...

Epic Games Announce Melee Battle Royale Rumbleverse

So, Rumbleverse is a free-to-play, 40-player battle to the death. There are no guns, it’s pretty much all melee (though you can throw stuff at people, if you want), and you run around collecting items and power-ups that give you abilities. I’ve missed an incredibly important fact already, and that is that the game’s setting (arena, map, whatever you wanna call it) is named Grapital City. I don’t know if I hate that or not....

Epic Mega Sale Underway And Nba2K21 Is Free To Keep

If you don’t want to spend anything at all, NBA2k21 is free to keep for the next week. I feel like if you weren’t going to buy Cyberpunk 2077, it’s unlikely you’re going to buy it when it’s reduced down to £40, but maybe I’m wrong. Kingdom Hearts 3 still seems too expensive at £33.50, and you’d still be better off signing up to the Ubisoft+ subscription for a month than paying £37....

Esic Say They Re Working With Fbi In Fight Against Csgo Match Fixing

ESIC commissioner Ian Smith talked about progress in addressing match fixing during a recent interview with CS:GO YouTuber slash32: Smith begins by saying that their investigation into esports match fixing can be split into two parts. In the first, ESIC are investigating and taking action against players themselves, and Smith says he’s “optimistic” that they’ll go public soon with evidence of match fixing against a group of players they intend to ban for a “very, very long time....

Euro Truck Simulator 2 S Iberian Dlc Is Out Now

There’s a recent trailer below that let’s you take in the sights. As Euro Truck Simulator has continued to expand, so have those expansions increased their ambition in terms of detail. The variety in the trees, architecture and soundscapes makes a difference when the core appeal of the game is zen-like driving between beautiful places. You only need to look at the amount of effort put into Iberia’s tollgates for a sense of what level of detail I’m talking about....

Evil Genius 2 Review

Good evening. You’re building a lair from which you’ll take over the world. Don’t worry, it’s hidden behind the “staff only” doors of a casino on a tropical island. You’ll create bedrooms for your workers, labs for your scientists, security rooms for your guards, and a sinister conference room in which to do your evil cackling (actually you pitch ideas to visiting investors here). You’re out to advance down a tech tree of gadgets and eventually complete a Doomsday Device, which changes depending on which character you’ve chosen....

You can see some of the evil unfold in this here video where the developers walk through some bits you’ll get introduced to in the tutorial.

Ex Striking Distance Devs Say They Were Omitted From The Callisto Protocol S Credits

“I understand if a contractor does a small amount of work for a few months and is left off, but we’re talking full-time employees with over a year invested in the title, and had a hand in significant parts of the product,” one source told GIbiz. “It definitely stings,” another dev said. “To just not be there at all is shitty." None of the developers who spoke out about being omitted from the credits felt that the situation was normal practice, and some claimed they’d been working under crunch conditions on the project....

Fatal Frame Maiden Of Black Water Is Bringing The Japanese Horror Series To Pc Later This Year

I’m 100% wuss and so have never played the Fatal Frame games, but they’ve always interested me. They’re third-person horror games in which you, usually as a young woman, explore a creepy-ass environment and encounter ghosts and spirits. To overcome their incorporeal grip, you take photos of them using your Camera Obscura. As a Wii U game, Fatal Frame was well-suited to that console’s handheld second screen. I imagine it’ll feel less natural on PC, but the trailer above looks prettier, and it’s also been gussied up with a new, uh, photo mode....

This info comes with the launch of Final Fantasy XVI’s website, which offers a bit more info on the game’s world and a few characters. It’s set in the land of Valisthea, home to the vast glimmering Mothercrystals that fuel magic. Various kingdoms, duchies, and republics have grown around each Mothercrystal, and they’ve come to live at peace until the coming of something called “the blight”. I picked up Dragon Age vibes when I first saw FFXVI’s trailer (though Katharine thought of FFXV), and this only encourages that....
