"Cosmetics aren't just the stuff games sell so that it can keep making cooler, gameplay-relevant stuff for free anymore, they're the primary focus. Arrowhead is doing the total opposite with Helldivers 2." www.pcgamer.com/games/third-...
Nobody is doing live service better than Helldivers 2 because Arrowhead makes expansions, not just updates
Two years later, Helldivers 2 is still demonstrating why it was a sensation.

i don't think the leagues should act like they're in competition to one another but if we were going to pick at that bone i think a more relevant data point is that the fall classic last year was an all-timer knock-down 7 game brawler and the super bowl we just watched was a prolonged wet fart

I can't tell if people are pretending their real-life walk has no vertical movement, their brains are good at making them believe they don't, or if some humans have chicken-stabilized necks.
I wrote about headbob: a feature of first-person games that we rarely acknowledge, but is suuuuuper important to believing we're looking through a person's eyes.
Case in point: This game doesn't have it, and it's driving me up the wallllllllllll www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/i-...

I didn't realize how important headbob was until I played an RPG without it
A tiny design choice is spoiling an otherwise good game.

So I'm learning that this is controversial

The D&D movie was good enough for me to think this could rock, but then there's the whole Mazin of it all. That LOU show is pretty bad more often than it's good huh
A Baldur's Gate HBO series is in the works from Craig Mazin, co-creator of HBO's Last of Us show. Deadline reports that it'll be set directly after the events of Baldur's Gate 3, with new and returning characters.

"Highguard matches are too directed to surprise, too small to feel grand, and too sweaty for those other things not to matter. It takes the chaotic spirit of Rust or Minecraft Bed Wars and sands it down until it's frictionless and bland."

Highguard review: 2019 was a long time ago
Highguard's central mode is genuinely cool, but it's overstuffed with FPS trends that should go away for a while.

"That's a great question: What would I change if I could go back? Probably not call it Overwatch 2." — Overwatch general manager Walter Kong at the recent press event.
"Overwatch 2" was the vision of a director who left Blizzard five years ago, and it never actually came to fruition, so dropping the 2 makes perfect sense (only surprise is that it took this long to happen)

I got to see all the new Overwatch (not Overwatch 2!) stuff at Blizzard HQ last week, and uh I think we're back baby www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ov...
Overwatch 2 drops the 2 and goes back to being Overwatch as Blizzard launches its biggest update ever
The future of Overwatch looks brighter than ever before.

I love it
I feel like no one is talking about Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and it's very, very good. Dunk and Egg are a god damn delight. Love these two goobers, and it's refreshing watching a Game of Thrones show with a much narrower scope.
