Image: Hello Games The developers of No Man’s Sky have announced their next update, which is dubbed Worlds Part I. According to Hello Games founder Sean Murray, this update will be one of the game’s prettiest yet, literally changing the way players see the universe. “In No Man’s Sky, what you see on screen is generated by the computer,” Murray wrote. “The level of variety we are achieving is far beyond what was possible before.” The update is largely graphical, adding a host of new weather and terrain features designed to make planets feel even more real. Water will produce waves and reflections, waves will now respond to different weather phenomena, and the game will finally let ships land directly on the water. Worlds Part I will add new atmospheric... Continue reading… View the full article
Nintendo On a random Wednesday in July, Nintendo asked, #whoisemio, accompanying the question with a cryptic and creepy 15-second teaser. Now with an official annoucement and a new listing on the Nintendo e-Shop, we know. Emio, known as Smiling Man in the ********* version, is not a new horror project but rather the latest entry in Nintendo’s Famicom Detective Club series. In it, you’ll play as, what else, a detective tasked with solving the gruesome ******* of a student who was found with a paper bag with a smiling face over his head. Contrary to the rumors that suggested The Medium studio Bloober Team was the game’s developer, Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club was actually developed internally at Nintendo with Metroid producer...

t this point, I think No Man's Sky might be the most developed non-MMO in history. Hello Games is hard at work on a whole new open world the size of the actual Earth, and yet, somehow, the siren song of the studio's initially disastrous (and subsequently more than redeemed) space sim keeps pulling it back for more updates...

The latest update for No Man's Sky is dubbed the Worlds Update part one, and it looks like a pretty big one, even if as you can glean from its name, there's more to come in the future. For now, you can look forward to some hugely-revamped planet biome tech that should make things extra immersive, and a new expedition involving a flamethrower-packing mech suit. This latest update follows the bunch Hello Games has already deployed so far this year, including the Omega update, the Orbital update which finally brought us ship customisation, and the Adrift update that taught us how it feels to be a bit lonely. To be fair, I'd have struggled to outdo giving people interstellar ***** My Ride. As outlined in the patch notes for it and the trailer below, Worlds part one comes with a big focus on making planet biomes feel more immersive, thanks to some new technology Hello has developed while working on Light No *****, and is now feeding back into NMS.

Behaviour Interactive is about to increase the price of some ***** by Daylight DLC, claiming that the rise is being done to support cross-progression. DBD DLC is currently cheaper on PC than it is on console, but Behaviour says all costs need to be consistent going forward.

Longlegs is off to a very strong start at the box office, and now its distributor Neon is looking to YouTube for its next horror hit. After a lot of potential overhyping prior to its release, Longlegs has opened with a very impressive $22.6 million at the box office, a really good opening for a film with a budget estimated to be under $10 million. Its distributor, Neon, is no stranger to the horror genre, and after Longlegs has done so well it looks like it will be hoping to pull that off again with Shelby Oaks, a documentary-found footage crossover film directed by Chris Stuckmann. If that name sounds familiar to you, that's because Stuckmann is actually best known for his career as a YouTube film critic, where he's amassed more than two million subscribers over the past decade or so. Shelby Oaks was actually initially funded via Kickstarter in 2022, where it managed to raise almost $1.4 million dollars, despite only having a goal of $250,000. To this day, that makes it the most funded horror film on the fundraising site, and by quite a large margin too (the second highest funded raised around $400,000, a whole million less). As the Kickstarter page describes, Shelby Oaks is a horror film about "missing paranormal investigators (the paranormal paranoids), the dark legacy they uncovered, and the far-reaching effects their investigation has as Mia searches for her sister Riley, the lead paranormal investigator, 12 years later.

I got significantly better Baldurs Gate 3 because of Critical Role, despite knowing how to play the game since launch. The award-winning turn-based RPG by Larian Studios uses the rules of Dungeons and Dragons fifth edition (popularly referred to as 5e) and so do most of the campaigns on the tabletop roleplaying show the group has been moving away from 5e, as demonstrated by the creation of the Illuminated Worlds and Daggerheart TTRPG systems for Critical Role. I knew of Critical Role and even had a chance to interview them before the release of The Legend of Vox Machina. View the full article
