TownCo. is pretty happy with its new recruit, seeing as they're energetic, eager to please, and maybe not any too bright overall. They're the perfect candidate for the task of mayor, running a new town with zero population or infrastructure, taking an empty plot of land and starting the process of developing it to its full potential. Sure, they'll have to do everything by hand, but that's what the whole "energetic" part of the mayoral requirement is all about. With a little bit of work the basics of the town can be laid down and a few residents might even move in, ready to be given jobs that will start injecting life into the place and take some of the load off the mayor's shoulders. Either way, TownCo. gets paid, and if the mayor succeeds in turning the barren landscape into a bustling town worth living in the company will be paid even more. There is no possible down-side.

Rockstar Games has made many controversial games in its history. One might even argue every game it has ever produced has been controversial. But none ever reached the levels of Manhunt and its brutal, horrifying displays of violence. Now it's coming back, not as a game, but a fan-made movie. As shown by IGN, Manhunt is the title of the upcoming fan-made movie adaptation of the eponymous 2003 game, whose release was covered in controversy and even forbidden in certain countries. Never has a title generated so much bad rep and anti-gaming press, which is not least because there was a strong crowd at the time advocating for banning video games because they were "teaching" kids to be violent and cruel. Rockstar's output was particularly targeted due to the nature of its sandbox titles, where one could take out a chainsaw and cut down an entire city of people, or, as was the case in Manhunt, play as a brutal serial killer going after people in the most despicable ways possible, all while making sure it's all filmed and documented. Essentially, players were tasked with making snuff films, and while the game has many merits and thematic depth, that fact alone caused quite the stir. Over two decades later, it's getting made into a movie. And that, of course, means even more blood, gore, guts, and violence on full display with no artistic compromise. [Hidden Content] The style of the movie appears to closely follow that of the game, with a retro camera filter over the entire screen, emulating the sense of "snuff" in question. In just 40 seconds of footage, we can see heads split open, blood flowing in rivers, and chainsaws going to work. It takes what Manhunt the game is and elevates it to a whole different level, making significant use of our advances in technology and practical and digital effects, as well as of the fact that this is a movie and not a game. All the limitations of the original seem to have been overcome, allowing for a true R-rated horror fest that is bound to be a super fun splatterpunk flick. Now I'm not saying I particularly love horror movies like this (even though I am a fan of Rob Zombie), but this seems to be quite a faithful, thoughtful, and, most importantly, fun adaptation that turns a game that hasn't aged so well into something worth watching. If the story has been expanded or refined, we could be looking at the ultimate way to experience Rockstar's most controversial game, now in a better time when there are no groups of politically motivated gaming haters trying to shut it down.

One of the earliest quests in Of Ash and Steel requires you to find Nerest's Supplies, and it can be pretty tricky if you don't know where to look. Once you start the first chapter, you'll find Nerest's Hut. The location is impossible to miss, and you'll find plenty of items inside to loot. You'll also find a bag to open, which includes various resources, and Nerest's Note. The note will inform you about a few missing supplies that you'll have to find. Nerest's Supplies location in Of Ash and Steel To find Nerest's Supplies, read the note that you get from his hut. Next, exit the hut, and go left. You'll find an entrance that leads you to the nearby pond. You'll first have to find a shovel to excavate the treasure. Finding the shovel is quite simple, and it's situated close to the hut. Screenshot by Destructoid Head straight from the entrance mentioned above, and you'll find a stumble near the pond. Turn left, and go straight to find the shovel planted in the ground. Once you pick it up, move the shovel from your inventory to a quick slot and equip the item. The next part of the quest is to unearth the hidden treasure. To do so, you'll need to use the shovel at the correct location. Interestingly, the treasure is hidden right where the shovel was planted. It's at the exact spot, and a big chest appears once you complete the digging process. The chest has useful rewards for you to get that will help you complete various quests. You'll also get Gold, which is always pretty useful. The chest also includes a Dexterity Potion, which is a Legendary item. It also grants you three lockpicks, which can prove to be of use at any given moment. The first chapter has plenty of interesting quests, and it all leads up to you finding the map in Of Ash and Steel. Until then, you'll essentially have to depend on buildings to navigate yourself.

ARC Raiders continues to receive update and patches, and even though not all of them are equally big, they are all equally meaningful. This time around, Embark Studios has gone for minor tweaks in an effort to curb exploits, cheats, and other unsportsmanlike behavior, sprinkling a bit of trolling and fun on top of it all in an entirely unique way to deal with nefarious players. Here is everything included in the ARC Raiders 1.4.0 patch released on Nov. 27. Everything included in ARC Raiders Patch 1.4.0 Image via Embark As stated in the intro, ARC Raiders Update 1.4.0 is a minor one, focusing primarily on fixing exploits and cheats that saw players glitching through locked doors to access great loot at no cost and those who utilized weapon swapping to increase their rate of fire. These two fixes are a highlight of the patch, especially the former, where Embark Studios has implemented a mechanic that burns anyone glitching through doors to a crisp, leading to some fun and hilarious moments shared across social media. The exploit that allowed players to "shoot quicker than intended by swapping to a quick use item and back," has also been patched, with shootouts now more likely to play out fairly and without cheating. Outside of these focused fixes, the following has also been changed, tweaked, or introduced: Spaceport's Control Tower locked room can no longer be accessed from the exterior. Low resolution textures should no longer appear in the main menu. Players cannot push one another by jumping on each others' backs anymore. Lighting artifacts on map loading have been fixed. Raider Voice options stay after reloading the game. While admittedly small, the patch's quality-of-life fixes are going to make the game a better place, especially when it comes to players being disallowed from nefariously obtaining high-quality loot that usually requires keys (and, therefore, a lot of experience and luck).
