The Joy Of Loving Theseus From Hades

They are all wrong: Theseus is actually the best. Look, I believe in Megaera supremacy as much as anyone else, but I cannot stand by while you blackguards slander Theseus any longer. Much like Asterius the Minotaur, I have taken it upon myself to defend Theseus. He’s the most interesting, funny, and entertaining character in the game, and his importance has been vastly underestimated. The thing is, “the worst character in the game” is a crucial role, giving players a lightning rod for their frustration - a common enemy to unite around, if you will....

The Next The Sims Game Could Have Online Elements Ea Say

As reported by Sims Community, a caller asks Wilson for his thoughts on “relaunching an online version of the franchise given its large popularity,” referencing EA’s financial results published yesterday stating that The Sims 4 had passed 20 million unique players worldwide. Wilson definitely doesn’t mention any plans for a fully-online Sims game like The Sims Online, so we can put a pin in that for now. However, he offers some hints as to what kind of online tie-ins The Sims might try in the future....

The Old Republic Update Sends You Mandalorian Hunting On The Beigest Planet In Existence

Planet Ruhnuk is the beigest entity I’ve ever seen, but you’re not there for your holidays, are you. The new questline sees you “help Shae Vizla in her hunt for Heta Kol, a rogue Mandalorian who has gathered an army of rebels under the banner of the Hidden Chain”. She’s hiding out on Ruhnuk, an old uninhabitable mining planet in the center of an electrical nebula wot makes ships crash....

The Rps Advent Calendar 2021 December 5Th

That’s right, it’s Age Of Empires 4 Nate: To speak in the broadest possible terms, Age Of Empires 4 was an all-singing, all-lancing, megabudget remake of legendary medieval batterfest Age Of Empires 2. Franchise newcomers Relic Entertainment lifted the core right out of the 1999 RTS, hooked it up to a brand new game with an aesthetic best described as Time Team directed by Michael Bay, and slapped it onto our digital plates with a blast of heraldry-draped trumpets....

The Rps Selection Box Rebecca S Bonus Games Of The Year 2022

The thing is, though, when it comes to GOTY lists like our Advent Calendar, it’s a much bigger task to convince your fellow voters of the merits of your new favourite game when it’s the third, fourth, or maybe even sixteenth in its series. I’m adamant that those games deserve their share of recognition at the end of the year, which is why my honourable mentions celebrate 2022’s new entries into some of my favourite ongoing series....

The Sims 4 Is Having An Extremely Normal One Over Its Star Wars Dlc

This has not improved the mood of a vocal section of Sims fans, who were already unenthusiastic about Journey To Batuu on the basis that they didn’t want it as much as they wanted something else. EA clearly felt the situation had reached some kind of crisis point, because a statement has been put out addressing the “community feedback” the developers have received. Sims players being annoyed at The Sims 4 is frankly pretty business as usual; EA actually responding to it is less so....

The Sims 4 New Tiny Living Pack Is Coming This Month

Tiny Tiny Living Stuff Pack is coming out on January 21st with some specific new tiny house features. As in real life, a smaller house means smaller bills for your sims. Less like real life, the tighter space also gives a boost to blossoming relationships. I have lived in a dorm room with another human being and refute this premise. Your sims will also apparently get a bonus to their comfort stat from their smallish spaces....

The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe Has A Cursed Awareness Of Its Own Weird Culty Relevance

But most of all, I think that The Stanley Parable is a game about not being in front of the computer for a little while, as a treat. There’s an achievement you get for not playing the game for five years, and in The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe – a remastered version for consoles that adds some new content – there’s another achievement for ten. If they could implement an achievement for feeding all of your worldly belongings into a woodchipper and staggering naked into the forest to live with the animals, they probably would....

Get the WD SN850 1TB for £105 w/ code SPEND15 The WD SN850 is a drive that we’ve covered a fair bit in terms of deals, just because it is both one we recommend one that is available from a wide range of retailers, which in turn means that there are often deals on it. Looking at those past posts though, I don’t think we’ve ever seen the drive at a better price with the heatsink attached - £133 is the cheapest price I can find in our almighty deals archives....

Apparently there’s an “exciting new franchise” coming, so we get chatting on the rumoured Marvel XCOM, and the Hangar 13 game that’s apparently a little Cthulu, a little Saints Row. We also talk about different coloured Steam Decks for a minute. As already mentioned, Show and Tell is full of chatter on Turtle Rock’s new horde-slaying game....

The Witcher Old World Is A Prequel Board Game Arriving Next Year

Old World is designed for two to five players who all get to become their very own monster hunter who recently finished training in one of the Witcher schools: Wolf, Viper, Cat, Bear or Griffin. Just like Geralt does in the video games and Netflix show, you’ll take on contracts to kill beasts. You might have the occasional brawl with another Witcher - they seem like an angry lot, bit of an occupational hazard, I suppose....

Here’s the scene from the first episode (in a video comparing it to the original webcomic) when the doctors first diagnosed me with terminal death: And that video cuts the song short. It really does go on. So much Warriors. I thought this might be a funny one-off but let me tell you: it is not. I’m far from finished but have already heard Warriors several times. It is the show’s anthem for heroic moments....

This Rtx 3070 Gaming Pc Costs Just 1130 Down From 1478

Get the AWD-IT RTX 3070 gaming PC for £1130 (was £1478) It’s always fun to see just how good value these builds are, so I popped these components into PCPartPicker to find out. If you bought everything here except the graphics card from the cheapest UK retailer, you’d end up spending £455, thus valuing the RTX 3070 at around £675. Looking on Ebay, most of these cards have sold for around £800 to £1000, making this a substantially cheaper way to get your hands on an RTX 3070....

Stranger Things VR delves into earlier seasons of the show than just season four. You’ll shepherd Vecna as he explores the Upside Down, mucking about with the otherworldly, alien contents therein to start bringing his evil plans for revenge together. This will apparently involve invading the subconscious of familiar Stranger Things characters, along with battling humans and Upsidedownian monsters with your brain-throbbing telekinetic powers. Tender Claws have worked on a few VR adventures before, but this horror game is their first big licensed outing....

Thq Nordic Publishing Aew Fight Forever Wrestling Games Now Almost A Circle

Bear with me here, but the WWE games used to be made by Yuke’s, and were published by THQ until THQ liquidated in the 2010s. The WWE license passed to Take-Two Interactive and the games were published under 2K Sports, but still made by Yuke’s until development was taken over by 2K’s studio Visual Concepts from WWE 2K20 onwards. This freed Yuke’s up to become the developer of AEW: Fight Forever....

If tiny living got you back into the Sims 4 again, perhaps tiny space habitation will take you back to No Man’s Sky as well. There’s a puzzle-y allure to making do with as little space as possible and that goes double for the terraform-able landscapes in Hello Games’ technicolor space sandbox. As spotted by Polygon, thinks kicked off with “Galactic Geographic” challenging players to build cube homes with a total of just eight cube rooms in a 2x2x2 formation....

Tiny Tina S Wonderlands Shows Off Two New Classes In Latest Gameplay Trailer

Yeah, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands looks as I’d expected: an expanded continuation of the Tiny Tina’s Assault On Dragon Keep Borderlands 2 DLC. Aside from a brief look at the table-top inspired overworld, the remainder of the footage shows off the game’s fantasy take on Borderlands’ colourful looting and shooting. Instead of bog-standard assault rifles and grenades, you’ve got crossbows and flashy spells, which is welcome. I’m really into the magic wave-shooter thing that uses crystals for ammo....

Train Life Dev S Next Game Is A Taxi Tycoon Simulator

When I spoke to studio lead Marcin Jaśkiewicz about the game ahead of today’s reveal, he described it to me as a bit like a “peaceful GTA”, although whether the traffic cops will still come after you for running red lights remains to be seen. Assuming you’re the law-abiding type, though (this is a simulation game, after all), Simteract’s big focus has been making sure players “feel like you’re actually there,” says Jaśkiewicz....
