Warning: Major Spoilers for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt lie ahead. Which ending to the base version of The Witcher 3 you get depends on a lot of things. There are the big obvious choices, along with a heap of smaller ones, and it's the former that really shapes the final proper cutscene you get before the game paints a picture of the rest in storybook style. As it turns out, there was a little more to one of these final cutscenes, and a modder's now restored it. As with the majority of the more interesting works that've popped up as part of a Witcher 3 modding rennaisance over the last few months, this one wouldn't have been possible without the REDkit modding tools. You know, the ones that're providing a lot of cool stuff to help tide us all over while we wait for more news on The Witcher 4 and the other projects CD Projekt's currently busy working on.

Better check those desert dunes again Caravan SandWitch, someone’s ******* the lede. An open world you can explore in a few relaxed evenings? One that favours the joyous freeform sightseeing of an Elden Ring or Breath Of The Wild; where you’ll scramble up vast industrial concrete ruins on scavenging missions for inquisitive frogs, instead of being nagged by bothersome checklists? Ok, rain check on that last point. SandWitch can’t help but eventually funnel the freedom of ambling around in your chuffy yellow van into restrictive collect-a-thons. Still, for much of its breezy runtime, this one’s a real panacea for gaming’s more bloated map-scourers. Plus, even when you are sent off to hamster-cheek scavenged components before making progress, there’s very little in this world that doesn’t feel intentional. Sidequests and storytelling crumbs are deliberately scattered throughout, and each building is a thoughtful concrete puzzle box. It is, in brief, a nice time. You play as Sauge, a spacefarer returned to her planet of Cigalo after receiving a distress signal from her missing sister. Cigalo’s a cheery place, though economically and environmentally devastated after being exploited by an evil spacecorp named The Consortium. It’s populated by small settlements of people, some large talking frogs named the Reinetos, and the occasional friendly ******. Everything’s friendly, as it goes - even gravity itself. There’s no danger, no ******, no damage from flinging yourself off the tallest building you can find. Just helping out your desert buds, upgrading your van with more gadgets to solve puzzles, or working on finding exactly where Sauge’s sister has go to. Read more View the full article

The Penguin finally premieres on Max in exactly one week, on September 19. We're now learning more and more about the process of ********* the long-anticipated series, and it appears that Colin Farrell didn't have a super great time under all the prosthetics and makeup. As part of Total Film's new issue, the actor explained the highs and lows of returning to Gotham as Oswald Cobblepot, and while he praises the character that's been created by Matt Reeves and showrunner Lauren LeFranc, he also was happy to leave him behind. "Don't get me wrong – I loved it – but it got in on me a little bit. By the end of it, I was ********* and moaning to anyone who would listen to me that I f**king wanted it to be finished," he openly admitted before describing his personal attachment to previous iterations of the character. "It's not like I didn't know who I was and I was going out and burning cars and s**t, but... if you take what Matt Reeves created and then what Lauren [LeFranc, showrunner] did and what Mike [Marino, prosthetics and make-up designer] did and put them all together, it was a really powerful experience."

I am torn between being deeply annoyed at the fact roguelike deckbuilder Bramble Royale: A Meteorfall Story allows me to poison skeletons, and actually finding it very funny.

So, you get a pass for now, game. Here’s a trailer: Read more View the full article

As we near the main stage of Dota 2’s The International 13, many new hero trends have emerged. One hero who gained momentum throughout the TI13 qualifiers was Windranger, who only soared in popularity throughout the group stages and the playoffs. Unexpectedly, Windranger eventually became so popular that she boasted a contest rate of 86 percent across every game at TI. In the rare instances where players banned her, she was promptly picked up, leading to varying degrees of success. Even though Windranger ties with Mirana and Kunkka at 36 picks, her in-game impact has arguably been higher, enough to be first picked in many games. View the full article
There are cold opens and there are freezing ones. Sci-fi roguelike shooter Wild Bastards doesn't start on its strongest cowboy boot. You are dumped into the middle of an interstellar chase and summarily shown the ropes. The guns feel simplistic, the arenas bare, the loot vanilla, and the entire loop of beaming down to a planet and getting into small-scale "showdowns" threatens to become stale within the first hour or so. But then you find an outlaw buddy who offers a new way to ****** human dirtbags. Then another fellow bandit. And another. By the time your spaceship is half-filled with scoundrels and weirdoes shouting at each other, the game has warmed up enough to reveal its central idea. This ain't no grand FPS campaign, nor is it quick as roguelikes go. It's a snacky shootout sim with tumbleweed towns that feels best when you savour the pre-****** suspense.
