Starfield Physical Edition Drama Resolved: Xbox Will Include Disc

News
schdmk

Starfield’s physical drama has been resolved, with Bethesda quietly updating their storage page to denote that the game disc will be included with the Xbox release. PC release will get a code in the box, which to be fair – is fair. In order to use a CD I’d have to trust it, first of all and then second I’d need to use my USB CD/DVD reader which I’ve lost. This concludes the weekend’s drama we covered earlier where they took back a post saying that there would be no disc with the physical release of the game. That is the story it seems. Except there’s more unanswered questions. Will the collector’s edition come with a disc (the likely answer is no since they call out specifically the standard edition). Then there’s like, can the game fit on a disc? Like will a single disc hold it, will be a…

Escape from Tarkov’s Developers Target Dataminers

News
92d8e3b3d1db05d30b4c7417be4f9635

It looks like the developers from Escape from Tarkov have had it with dataminers. Dataminers have been plaguing the Escape from Tarkov’s development team for a while now, but it looks like it’s gotten to the point where they’re releasing an official statement and looking to take action against those who do it. As a reminder, this is a PvP only game, so any kind of unfair advantage isn’t cool. Battlestate Games has made it clear in their statement that they won’t tolerate data mining anymore in their game. The community response is mixed. They don’t want cheaters, but it looks like some information is really desired. There’s a lot of back and forth in the 980+ replies including some of the wiki editors who got caught in a ban getting unbanned: That’s kind of a wild saga to follow. Escape from Tarkov is $49.99 as a pre-order currently with…

Battle.net Attacks Leave Players Frustrated on the Weekend

News
Q0CBHJ08Q6AH1687389394091

Diablo IV is so popular that it would be odd if you didn’t have a single friend waiting for the weekend to get on and play non-stop. This weekend, June 25th 2023, the Battle.net servers were hit with a DDOS attack causing services for Diablo IV to temporarily go down: I think the most interesting aspect of the mentioned tweet is the responses from fans everywhere complaining that they have work the following day. It is rather unfortunate and sad to see whatever mischief-maker or wrongdoer do this. It also serves as evidence of just how big Diablo IV is. If you are having difficulties connecting to Diablo this weekend or any Battle.net game, you may have to wait for a while. Even with the huge distributed denial-of-service attack mitigation attempts that exist on the modern internet, the malicious actors appear to stay one step ahead whenever they get the…

SIGNALIS – The Story & Ending Explained

Guides
signalis

SIGNALIS is sort of an enigma of a game. It’s a great recapture of the feeling of the “5th generation” era of gaming and is actually a lot of fun. While its considered a survival-horror game, its more akin to an action-stealth game like Metal Gear Solid and less like Resident Evil per se. However, it has a very interesting, wild and convoluted story that needs a bit of explanation. Another thing to note is a three person team worked on this game. I touch a bit on this in my article about meetings at video game studios, but a lot of the game is clearly intentional from a development standpoint. Which is why SIGNALIS feels so buttoned up. SIGNALIS Is an Analog Horror Simulator That’s it, that’s as simple as it is. Everything in the game is built around a dream like experience of that 5th generation era of…

What is #leagueoflegendsut (Explained)

News
lolut

So recently across social media you can find the following post from the official Riot and League of Legend’s accounts: Is it a new game? Is it new skins in the game? Does it have something to do with Wild Rift? Well the answer is actually quite simpler than it appears. #leagueoflegendsut is an upcoming clothing collab with a popular clothing brand and the image showcases a likely sample of one of the shirts. What Exactly Does LeagueofLegendsUT mean? Uniqlo is the clothing brand that they’re collaborating with. You can see their logo on the top left of the photo and the shirt is likely a K/D/A collab that’s coming soon with Uniqlo. Previous LoL collabs included fashion house Louis Vuitton. Therefore it’s no surprise that they’re collabing with another major clothing brand for their K/D/A brand. So then the question is what does the UT stand for? Well that’s…

Guides
spyro 2

Gulp is super hard, seriously. I almost went insane trying to beat him until I finally “got it.” The reason Gulp is so hard, compared to the rest of the games, is that his orb attack fires in front of you and in Reignited it’s very good at predicting what in front of you is. So here is how to beat him and not stress over the battle. Oh real quick, check out the cheat codes. 99 lives makes it easy to retry this battle. If you’ve 100% the game and are here for the achievement, use Superflame: https://twitter.com/SpyroTheDragon/status/1083067608881160200 How to Avoid the Charge Run right through him and to the left or right a bit, whatever is closer to being away from him. Don’t run away from him, just charge right at him. He’ll jump before you reach him and then you can just move left or right to…

The Cult of Star Citizen Heralded Our Current Dystopian Internet

Editorials
star citizen header

The Cult of Star Citizen is the bellowing flame enclosed within the massive furnace that is the cult of personality around Chris Roberts. Although the furnace is made of paper mâché and false promises, it still bellows. The flames roar mightily across the Internet, defending the cult from nefarious non-believers, tithing their income to the venerable Chris Roberts and making videos of how great a very limited buggy tech demo is. If you went back twenty years and told me that this nonsense existed, back in the sweet innocent year of 1999 when the Internet was the proverbial paradise of ideas, collaboration and communication – I wouldn’t believe you and point you to Slashdot to read about how blogs are going to save society. See, back then the belief was around the idea that everyone online could report the news and that no longer would mega-corporations control the news. Now,…
