The blurb explains: More importantly, you can sit on chairs and act like you’re people: “See the world through the eyes of a stray and interact with the environment in playful ways. Be stealthy, nimble, silly, and sometimes as annoying as possible with the strange inhabitants of this foreign world.” Stray is coming to Steam and PlayStation 5 in 2021. It’s made by BlueTwelve Studio and published by Annapurna Interactive....
Factorio console commands There’s a simply colossal number of ways in which you can change your Factorio game using the in-game console. But we’re both busy people, so I’m just going to lay out the most useful and frequently used cheats for you below. Player console commands (teleport, mine faster, craft faster, etc.) Inventory console commands (add inventory slots, enable cheat mode, etc.) Enemy console commands (kill nearby enemies, disable biter expansion, etc....
By summer 2020, they’d swept the DLC off the table. “It’s not quite right to say we cancelled it,” Myers explained to me more recently over email. “The DLC never entered production. All the work we did towards it was about figuring out if we should go ahead and make it.” The process of actually making games is one that is opaque to almost everyone on the consumer side. This isn’t really different to most things I consume - I have no idea what processes go into providing me with dried spaghetti, for instance....
Even so, when I tell you that I spent my first half an hour or so with Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout in a near constant vocal and visual display of delight (despite me being entirely alone and intermittently self-conscious about the people walking past my window), you should know that this is still sort of unusual. Unfettered joy never survives repetition, but I’m reluctant to hold that against Fall Guys....
Here’s the season pass trailer, which keeps a lot vague. Most of what I know for sure, I said in the first paragraph. You’ll play as the three villains from the three previous games, possibly inside one or all of their minds, and “uncover their backstories.” You’ll also need to “die and retry” in the missions. I will add that Vaas had maybe two good scenes in Far Cry 3, and otherwise isn’t in the game much....
While you don’t have to be a homeowner to quest through Squeenix’s MMO, it’s nice to have a place to set down roots. Unfortunately (and somewhat surprisingly), it’s one plot per person. Land ownership is limited, moreso since the game’s free trial expanded to include the game’s entire first expansion. That home evictions have been put on hold during the Covid-19 pandemic hasn’t helped. Great news for homeowners behind on their rent, but tough luck for fresh-faced travellers looking for a step onto the property ladder....
“As you all know, Security Breach was originally planned to come out at the end of 2020, but as we kept working on it and kept adding to it, it just kept getting bigger and bigger and needed more time to finish,” Cawthon said on Reddit. “And now, again, I’ve made the decision to put more time and money into it to make sure it’s finished properly, and that means a late 2021 release instead of an early 2021 release like I had originally wanted....
Here’s a video, released by Unseen, which introduces the philosophy of the studio and contains glimpses of the (still empty) office space. “At Unseen, we want to build a multicultural team - a cross-cultural world made up of international staff,” Nakamura told IGN in a video interview. “I want [the office] to be a place where developers can come and go as they please, like nomads. It’s a new style of office....
In August, a number of Lab Zero devs resigned, saying they could no longer tolerate the inappropriate behaviour of the owner, Mike Zaimont. Then, just a week after, Lab Zero laid off many of their remaining employees. Future Club is a fresh start for these devs, though, says CEO and producer Francesca Esquenazi, “with a company structure that’s worker-owned and gives everyone a say in the future of our organization....
The Great War encompasses the entire length of WW1. You’ll have to step into the roles of theatre commander and field commander to wage your campaign, making decisions in turn-based grand strategy and in real-time battles. Technologies from the period such as poison gas and tanks will be options to research, which is fairly intimidating, and you’ll need to choose where to invest your resources and place your fortifications carefully to avoid them being overrun by the enemy....
The new trailer shows off some more of its comic book stylings, a rather blood-spattered crime scene investigation, and a generous heap of dystopian vibes. Plus a whole lot of argy bargy. There’s a peek at how that’ll develop, too, with upgradable stats and switchable weapons. For when you just really want to take a samurai sword to a bloke picking a fight in a pub. All those weapons and pub brawl practice fights are for a good cause, though....
Does it count as a road trip if adventurer Fischl drags her pals along on a boat journey through the Golden Apple Archipelago? A sea jaunt maybe? Well, that’s the basis of the Summertime Odyssey event, sailing about collecting ‘iridescent flotsam’ like it’s the Gummi ship sections of Kingdom Hearts. Disembark to explore the islands on foot, and you’ll find ‘phantasmal conches’ that are essentially audio logs that explain the story....
Graham reported at the end of July that six new characters were coming in the 3.0 update, including the Dendro Forest Watcher and researcher Tighnari. There’s two other new characters incoming too: Collei and Dori. Collei is another Dendro character, who’s one of the main characters in the Genshin manga. She’s a trainee ranger who comes from Sumeru. Dori is an Electro character and the Sumeru region’s most resourceful merchant....
Nahida is a 5-star Dendro catalyst character. She wields the elemental skill called All Schemes To Know, which fires out bits of wood and tree to cause Dendro area of effect damage. Nahida can also target multiple enemies in a limited area using her aiming mode, which seems to be a bit like making a picture frame with her fingers. Aww. Her elemental burst, Illusory Heart, summons the Shrine Of Maya....
Simple enough: hit Wheredle’s website to play. Each day, it drops players into a random place in the USA in Google Street View. All you have to do is say which state it’s in. Not even the street, or the city—the state is enough. You have seven attempts to guess the state, with right and wrong answers marked in green and yellow blocks on a grid (an important element of -dle games)....
Get the 2TB Crucial MX500 for £149.97 (was £213.59) The only true competitor is another Crucial drive, the P2. This is an NVMe drive that can hit substantially faster speeds - up to 2400MB/s reads - than the 550MB/s Crucial MX500. However, it does require an NVMe slot, which are typically limited to one or two on most mainstream motherboards, so you may find that adding SATA storage like the MX500 is a little easier....
You are one of the native population of a planet colonised by an interplanetary corporation, using advanced robots and drones to suppress resistance and industrialise your home planet, strip-mining it for resources. But there are few problems that can’t be solved by throwing a bird at it. Especially if that bird is wearing, e.g., a cowboy hat. You met your falcon pal in prison - you were in fact cellmates when the falcon was only a baby....
While largely outsourced by original devs Santa Monica Studio to the Canadian outfit Jetpack Interactive, God of War’s PC version shows an impressive attention to detail. Besides the basics like customisable controls, an uncapped frame rate option and 21:9 ultrawide compatibility, there’s support for both Nvidia DLSS and AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), and you can use either a PlayStation or Xbox controller with on-screen prompts changing to reflect your favoured buttons....
The idea for GOG Connect wasn’t a bad one, and we reported on it back when it launched. Set up in June 2016 to “jumpstart your GOG.com library”, Connect was intended to let people grab a DRM-less version of games they’d already bought and paid for over on Steam. The major catch with Connect was its time-limited nature, with developers and publishers only allowing their games to be claimed for a relatively short period....
“Starting in 2022, players will be able to experience their favorite Google Play games on more devices: seamlessly switching between a phone, tablet, Chromebook, and soon, Windows PCs,” said Google’s product director of games on Android and Google Play, Greg Hartrell, in a statement to The Verge. The app that will run the games has been built by Google themselves, and you’ll be able to resume games on desktop after playing them on a phone or elsewhere....
