Blizzard says a premium currency makes it easier to buy multiple items, but, as Reddit user Pariah points out, "so does a shopping cart." www.pcgamer.com/games/world-...
Blizzard's reason for adding premium currency to World of Warcraft after 21 years of doing just fine without one has everyone worried about player housing
Nobody's buying it.

I had a wonderful chat with the game director of Path of Exile about its next expansion, which will be the first time in the studio's history that it will rework an old mechanic. I'm a PoE 2 baby but I might give this one a shot. www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/af...
After 9 years of avoiding it, Path of Exile is taking another swing at an old mechanic for its new expansion: 'This one just kinda felt right'
Keepers of the Flame will be a return to Breach, one of the game's oldest systems.

It is very obvious this cosmetic is inspired by Bloodborne so I spent quite a few weeks cobbling this set together from all of the spooky castle/Victorian city places, which is hard in Overwatch!

"'The more we try to understand what's going on in the world around us—the more we don't just withdraw into a hermitude of my family and I as a nuclear unit, the more we try to understand our society—I think the more these kinds of games speak to us,' Short said."
Founder of Dwarf Fortress and Caves of Qud publisher Kitfox Games says its procgen sims for sickos are 'giving storytelling tools back to the people when games and passive media took them away'
Streets of Fortuna, Kitfox's own in-development "megasim," is chasing that same systems-driven storytelling.

A slot machine for gags disguised as a Vampire Survivors-like is taking over Steam, and I'm just as addicted to pulling the lever as the other 90K people playing it
Megabonk keeps on giving.

We joke about Steam reviews but sometimes they get their point across in a single sentence whereas it takes me about 1,800 words. Anyway, I made a quiz where you try to guess the game based only on a blurb from a Steam review. Pretty much everyone is is acing it. www.pcgamer.com/games/can-yo...
Can you guess the game based only on a blurb from a Steam review? Take our quiz and see if you score a thumbs up!

Sharp piece here from the shooter expert himself.
"Maybe it's a sign that Call of Duty—or more accurately, the machine that produces a clone of the previous Call of Duty every 12 months—is in decline. Maybe doubling up on Black Ops right after doubling up on Modern Warfares finally broke Call of Duty." www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/th...
This year's 'COD Next' served up everything wrong with Call of Duty: Nonstop ads, manufactured hype, and a stagnant game
Black Ops 7's big multiplayer debut was loud and insecure.
