A first-time champion, an upset story for the ages, and a remarkable grand final that won’t be forgotten for years. If the LCS has indeed ended for good, it went out with a real bang, as stats today show a sharp uptick in viewership and fan interest following the season’s conclusion on Sept. 7. FlyQuest’s 3-1 win over the undefeated Team Liquid saw 260,753 viewers tune in, according to Esports Charts, nearly 40,000 more than last year’s championship final between Cloud9 and NRG. It wasn’t just single-game stats that peaked, with average viewership for the split up by 23 percent compared to last year and a peak higher than that of LCS Spring, but it’s not all good news.

Not everyone is though, which is why I’ve got the answer to the riddle below. View the full article
The LEC season has wrapped up with great news on the viewership front, with stats indicating an improvement in major metrics compared to last year—solely due to a sharp uptick in League of Legends fans tuning into co-streamers at the expense of the official broadcast. Streaming stats site Esports Charts revealed in a report this week that League co-streamers such as Caedrel and Ibai have become a premier force on LEC matchday with thousands tuning in to catch the action. This uptick resulted in an approximate 13 percent boost in total watch hours and higher concurrent averages across the entire split. As a result, however, concurrents on official broadcasts took a *****, with the LEC Twitch channel hardest hit. View the full article
Amouranth has gone on the offensive against YouTube, suggesting the titanic video platform is trying to force her away by cancelling her main channel on the site and at least one secondary profile despite neither having any strikes or bannable infractions. The star entertainer, who streams on Kick and uploads her highlights and other content to YouTube, has been unable to access her main profile since early on Sept. 7. The page has been inaccessible for her streaming fans since a day or two earlier, when the channel appears to have been disabled. At the time of writing, trying to load up Amouranth’s primary YouTube page still brings up a 404 error code message that reads: “This page isn’t available.” View the full article

I had the opportunity to attend Call of Duty Next this year in Washington, DC alongside media from around the world and an army of content creators to experience Call of Duty: ****** Ops 6 in the most epic way possible.

The competitive League of Legends ecosystem is set to undergo its biggest change following the conclusion of the 2024 season. Besides the introduction of Fearless Draft and massive format changes at Riot Games’ grandest events, the biggest change we’re going to see will be in the Americas. FlyQuest’s historic win over Team Liquid on Sept. 7, as well as paiN’s CBLOL victory and Movistar R7’s triumph in the LLA, spell the end of the regional split format before Riot implements League‘s pan-********* dual conference format for 2025.

NICKMERCS has lashed streaming fans who’ve been calling him a “bad friend” for condemning Dr Disrespect amid the disgraced streamer’s attempted comeback, suggesting he won’t be extending any olive branches after cutting ties earlier this year. In the fallout after Dr Disrespect admitted to sending messages to a minor through Twitch Whispers that “sometimes leaned too much in the direction of being inappropriate,” NICKMERCS clearly and publicly distanced himself from the 42-year-old streamer. This firm stance, which he’s not changed since Dr Disrespect returned, has apparently now led to the star copping some serious flack from his streaming fanbase amid the Doc’s comeback.

I played a demo of Vampire Syndicate: Gangs of Moonfall last year when it was still a top-down game that was designed in RPG Maker and looked like it. While it showed promise, the Kickstarter campaign was quickly canceled and its creator, a solo developer, went back to the drawing board. Now it's back as a flashier Unreal Engine 5 project with exploration and dialogue in first-person (you can toggle a third-person view), switching to a top-down view for the turn-based combat. The relaunched Kickstarter has already passed its initial goal of $25,000 and it still has 25 days to go... Read more.View the full article
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth concludes around the same point as the original Final Fantasy 7 completed Disc 1. Many of the game's Disc 1 bosses have made an appearance in Remake and Rebirth, alongside a host of newly designed boss fights. Final Fantasy 7 Disc 2 has only half the number of boss fights as in Disc 1, and Disc 3 has even less, seeing as it only covers the second trip to Northern Crater. However, there are still a number of battles that must be included in Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3. View the full article

I get that a lot of people's Baldur's Gate 3 experiences were different from mine, but one thing that surprised me? How many swear the game's mod scene was essential to their experience. The big changes like new spells or classes always felt out of place in this RPG system I'd grown to love so much, while the small quality of life tweaks that really appealed to me always seemed like too much of a bother to get working. Now that the in-game mod browser makes installing them a no-hassle, one click process, I get it. BG3 modding, I apologize, I wasn't really familiar with your game... Read more.View the full article
Video games have had their fair share of infamous villains, from Far Cry's absolutely terrifying Vaas Montenegro to the constantly outwitted Dr Robotnik from Sonic the Hedgehog.

Fortunately, while there have been a few duds here and there, for the most part, there are some truly iconic and memorable baddies throughout video game history. View the full article
