When Hyperstrange‘s Elderborn first entered Early Access in October of 2018, I was impressed by many aspects of it. Only the first chapter was included, but the visuals, game mechanics, and weapons were well-realized and intriguing. But one thing was severely amiss: The enemy placement was horrible. “Sure, this is problematic now, but it’s still early in development. They’ll certainly fix it as time goes by.” But they didn’t. Astoundingly, some sections that I found particularly egregious 15 months ago have gotten worse....

Embracer co-founder Lars Wingefors has spoken to investors about the release of Saints Row, admitting he had hoped the game would have received a “greater reception”.

Poor Steam. Following the Metro Exodus debacle, Borderlands 3 just had to go and make things worse with their own Epic Games Store exclusivity. It was an unnecessary move that merely highlights the money-hungry reality that plagues triple-A gaming publishers like Deep Silver and 2K. Though it’s realistically always been about the profits as opposed to the fans, now so more than ever it has become the driving nature for most game production....

Since its launch, gamers have flocked to internet forums and comment sections to complain about the Epic Games Store and its tendency to purchase exclusivity rights to games. While some of these complaints have been valid, like those about the store’s lack of many of the features found on its main competitor, Steam, there’s a trend of people spreading misinformation and hate about it and its partners. Now it’s something Epic has now officially responded to....

It seems as though Escape From Tarkov has been hit with the dreaded ‘error on post’ again. The bad news is there is nothing you can really do about it – you basically need to wait for a patch to fix the issue. It’s likely due to the servers maxing out, as they may not be able to handle all of the players jumping in at the same time. There are a couple of options – one thing could be to try manually changing the download server, as mentioned in WePC....

In this guide we’re going to break down the basics you need to know about Evil West combat, which will cover dodging, weapons, and proper enemy management....

This article comes from Den of Geek UK. William Shatner fights God. That’s about all anyone remembers from the infamous Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Over the years, the tale has grown in the telling. Some called it one of the worst films of all time, others call it a box office catastrophe. It killed the careers of the director, producer, the entire special effects company, and nearly ended the entire Star Trek franchise right there and then....

Fire Emblem: Three Houses is a great tactical strategy game mixed with some dating simulator elements. While the game can be played multiple ways depending on which house you picked and there are a variety of different endings, at some point, you’ll exhaust the game and run out of things to do. In that case, your best bet is to find a game that is similar to keep yourself occupied until the developers at Intelligent Systems roll out another entry for the franchise....

In the wake of the Disney-Fox merger, Disney has decided to shelve all but a handful of the currently in development film projects at Fox. Nearly 300 films have been cancelled, including films based on Mega Man, Magic: The Gathering, The Sims, and Assassin’s Creed 2.
