Stretched resolution in VALORANT is popular among players who use similar settings in Counter-Strike. If you’re also interested in trying stretch resolution, here’s what you need to know. You can run the stretched resolution in VALORANT by tweaking your graphic card settings. Sentinels star TenZ claims the stretched resolution makes the agent hitboxes slightly *******, making it easier for you to hit shots. But, in our experience, the advantage isn’t as big as in CS2, where the stretched resolution lowers your field of view and makes the characters look considerably *******. View the full article

Way back on the GameCube, almost twenty years ago, a small ****** helped repair a broken family. More than just a tiny household helper, Chibi-Robo showed up just as the cracks in the family tore it wide open and worked tirelessly to resolve them. Granted, this involved aliens, time-travel, fighting the Spydorz with the chibi-blaster, and a whole load of mini-games, but as weird as it got it was held together by the far-too-relatable underpinning of a family's emotions building up past the breaking point. It's hard to say if Chibi-Robo was ahead of its time or not, but while it did end up with several sequels none were anything like like the original game.

After multiple successful playtests and becoming the Most Played Game at February’s Steam Next Fest, extraction RPG Dungeonborne is out now for Early Access on PC, available to all players looking for a punishing but rewarding RPG. Dungeonborne is a first-person dungeon crawler in which players band together with up to two friends or play solo to seek treasure and glory among the ruins of a gritty, gothic setting that is overrun by monsters and other adventurers. Blending extraction gameplay with iconic fantasy class design, Dungeonborne offers strategic gameplay full of powerful loot and high stakes combat as you rush to extract before a blade finds your back. Eight Playable Classes, Eight Distinct Ways to Play Dungeonborne draws on traditional RPG classes, giving you a chance to embrace your role as a Fighter, Priest, Rogue, Druid, or Pyromancer while also offering more unique choices like Swordmaster, Cryomancer, or ****** Knight. Thanks to the first-person point of view, combat feels visceral and every spell or ******* swing has weight behind it. Each of Dungeonborne’s classes brings something unique to the table, too — while ****** Knights are masters of manipulation, capable of pulling enemies toward them and draining their life force, Druids can ******* from any range and shapeshift into animal form to rip and tear. Caster classes dispense destruction from afar. You can wield ***** as the Pyromancer and scorch and ***** all who oppose you, or encase your foes in ice and slow their advance as the Cryomancer. For players looking to take on more of a support role, the Priest will fit like a glove ⁠– heal your teammates and support them from afar, bolstering their defence and keeping them alive. Protect your allies from the frontline as a Fighter, capable of holding the line against your foes while your allied Rogue sneaks behind ****** lines to unleash devastating critical strikes. Defend as a Swordmaster and keep your enemies’ attention on you as you conjure powerful psionic blades capable of sowing quick ****** among the unsuspecting. With over 10 unique ******* pairings, every duel in Dungeonborne becomes a dance of ****** that brings a fluid, back-and-forth action combat experience. Parries, blocks, and ripostes dictate the flow of battle, and it’s split-second, in-the-moment decision making that determines the winner. Strategize, Prepare, and ******** — You’ll Have to ****** Tooth and Nail to Claim What Is Yours While simply jumping in and swinging your ******* around might work at first, you will quickly realise that spamming light attacks and pressing the loot button won’t be enough. Dungeonborne rewards and encourages tactical planning and strategy — terrain, trap locations, ****** positions, and time are all factors that you need to take into account if you wish to triumph over the opposing team that’s looking to claim your treasure as their own. Utilise terrain verticality to set up an ambush or lure enemies into the traps you find for easy ******. As you slay your opponents and plunder their riches, you will find equipment with over 80 item affixes that synergize with your playstyle or completely change the way you play. If you don’t need an item or simply have a better one, you can put it up for ***** at the in-game auction house, then hunt for dozens of legendary and unique items designed to help you sculpt the ultimate build. In Dungeonborne, the thrill of finding rare loot is accessible to all, not just the most dedicated players. You Can Play Dungeonborne Right Now, and Devs are Listening to Your Feedback Throughout Dungeonborne’s journey, Mithril Interactive has been working to address player feedback and tweak gameplay so that it feels rewarding, satisfying and fair. Based on community feedback, the team has implemented a range of balancing and quality-of-life updates, and introduced new server regions. Mithril is also planning to introduce new active and passive skills for each individual class to expand gameplay options. Dungeonborne is now available to download for free in Early Access on Steam. A ‘Mithril Edition’ DLC upgrade is available for players who want to support the game and development team for 9.99USD/7.99GBP (subject to regional pricing) that will grant players two cosmetic items to carry on their adventures as well as Bandages, Healing Potions and Throwable Flasks.

Microsoft’s practices regarding Xbox Game Pass have been fairly controversial, and it potentially just got much worse as the Federal Trade Commission gets involved. Earlier this month, Microsoft announced price increases and a host of other changes to their premiere subscription service for console and PC.

In a fairly unsurprising development, Paramount Plus has canceled its grand Halo adaptation after just two seasons and while most simply won’t be shocked, it’s still a punch in the gut for every franchise fan. The pain here is twofold. For those who were actually, genuinely enjoying this shonky Halo series (and I won’t blame you for that, really) the problem is clear: There’s no more story coming from a story you liked, which is an endemic in the streaming industry that only continues to get worse.
