Daredevil actor Charlie Cox has finally played Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, having previously admitted to feeling like a "total fraud" whenever fans brought up his appearance in the game. For Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, the Marvel star only provided the voice of Gustave rather than full performance capture for the character, which meant his time actually spent recording for the project was minimal, while motion capture was separately filmed by another actor. In June last year, Cox said he felt like a "total fraud" anytime someone gushed to him about Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and admitted he had recorded all of his lines in around four hours. The following month, Cox was asked about Clair Obscur again and admitted he was still to play it, and needed to buy a new games console first. "I remember being in the studio and thinking, 'This is beautiful, the visuals are extraordinary,'" Cox said. "They've come a long way since Mario 64, which is probably the last computer game I played." Then, in November, Cox said that any awards he might win for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 should really be given to his character's French motion capture artist instead. "Yes, I'm thrilled for this nomination," Cox acknowledged. "I've said this before and I think it's important to say: there's an amazing French actor, by the name of Maxence Cazorla, who did almost all of the motion capture for that role in that game. "So any nomination or credit I get, I really have to give to him — I believe that the performance of that character is really down to him, and my voice was just part of that process." Cox had been nominated for Best Performance at The Game Awards 2025 for his role in Clair Obscur. The award went to fellow Clair Obscur co-star, Jennifer English. Now, speaking to GamesRadar+, Cox has provided another update, saying he’s finally given Clair Obscur a try. "I've since played a bit of it,” he said. “Not the whole thing, I haven't completed it." Then: "I've played the opening bit for a while and kind of walked around and met the people and garnered the information and all that kind of stuff. Not very well." "I'm not very good, because obviously, it's a skill set, but I've played it,” he continued. Last month, it emerged that Cox was working on a new video game project. Speaking to YouTube channel Agents of Fandom, Cox said his Clair Obscur role — his first in the realm of video games — had "opened a new avenue for my professional work" and inspired him to take on another video game project this year, one that he was "much more involved" in.

We're in the home stretch leading up the next expansion for the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, and as is tradition, director and producer Naoki Yoshida detailed everything in the next wave of content during a Live Letter from the Producer stream. FFXIV Patch 7.5, called Trail to the Heavens, goes live on April 28 and is the first part of a two-part story update series before the upcoming expansion. And as usual, it includes a new dungeon and trial boss fight for the main scenario quest, and a ton of updates to side content shown in a hard-hitting trailer for Patch 7.5 itself. Here, I'll break down all the important details from the Live Letter to make sure you're ready for FFXIV Patch 7.5, where you're in it for the Beastmaster Job updates, the Crystalline Conflict PVP content, or the next Alliance Raid, or all of it! FFXIV 7.5 New MSQ Details and Dungeon While this is closing out the Dawntrail patch series, 7.5 seems to be deeply rooted in story threads from Endwalker. The next dungeon, called The Clyteum, takes us and the Scions back to the snowy ruins and abandoned factories of Garlemald, and the Garlean character Jullus seemingly plays an important role in this stretch. MSQ will also take us back to the moon, Mare Lamentorum, as the new baddie Halmarut and her stuffed toy with Calyx's soul drags the Scions there. Yoshida mentioned that lore enthusiasts will have a lot to pick apart from The Clyteum as the dungeon is designed to show remnants of Garlemald before its destruction. The new trial boss, Enuo, and while its place in the story isn't clear, Yoshida said it's going to be more difficult and fast-paced, but with fewer environmental gimmicks compared to Patch 7.4's Doom Train fight. You can see moving AoE attacks and pathing mechanics in the fight, but more surprising is seeing Zero and Golbez involved as hinted in the trailer, calling back to Endwalker's patch series. Although the story arc will close out with part two in Patch 7.55 in early September, Patch 7.5's MSQ will be the typical length as other patches in the past. Echoes of Vana'diel Alliance Raid Preview – Windurst: The Third Walk Closing out the 24-player Alliance Raid series for the Dawntrail patch series, Windurst: The Third Walk goes further in this Final Fantasy XI crossover. Yoshida jokingly likens this to an HD remastered version of FFXI as it pulls directly from the old MMORPG. This new instance has a few new gimmicks and mechanics as seen in the opening boss fight against Shantotto, who's a Tarutaru ****** Mage from FFXI, but much ******* this time. Those who play ****** Mage will notice Shantotto using the Job's abilities in raid form and manipulating the arena's platform. This will close out the Echoes of Vana'dield raid series and conclude the story of guest characters Alxaal and Prishe. We also got a look at the new gear set you can earn for all Jobs from Windurst: The Third Walk. New Crystalline Conflict PvP Map – Archeia Harmonias PvP players can get ready for the new map for the payload-pushing mode Crystalline Conflict – Archeia Harmonias takes place in a library and Yoshida mentioned that the team has worked its map design, tinkering with lines of sight and spaces where fights tend to happen. It also has unique on-map mechanics, such as: Healing glyphs are in front of each spawn point and will reduce damage by 50% and heal over time when standing on it. Aetherometers are checkpoints at the halfway point between the map's center and teams' spawn points, and the payload will stop at the aetherometer. The team advancing the payload standing in its proximity will charge the aetherometer, and the payload will move again once it reaches 100%. This number will reset if the advancing team leaves the payload's proximity or if an opponent enters the proximity. After fully charged, it'll create a bridge and a jump glyph for players to advance. Yoshida showcased how the meter fills fast to keep up the match's pace.Jump glyphs act as shortcuts for teams that activate it and will be at teams' spawn points to help them get back into action. These will remain for the rest of the match.Other Gameplay Updates in FFXIV Patch 7.5 Many of the system-level changes coming to Patch 7.5 are for convenience such as consolidating dyes and making glamour outfits easier, which were made simple for A Realm Reborn in 2013, but FFXIV outgrew a lot of those UI elements. Here are the notable changes: Duty Support system comes to The Dusk Vigil and Shisui of the Violent Tides dungeons.Lots of gear will now be storable in the Armoire.Dyes will be consolidated to color groups to save inventory space; current dyes will not be functional once Patch 7.5 goes live and can be exchanged for the new dyes.Updates to the Housing system include increased limits for indoor and outdoor furnishing, new interior fixture designs, and an option to adjust the number of character models rendered within housing.Sightseeing Log's log message will display the emote required to complete it and if specific time and weather conditions haven't been met, if required.Outfit Glamour update includes gear from FFXIV 3.0 onward being able to be stored as outfit glamour, and individual gear pieces can be removed from outfit glamour.Crafting is being made more convenient – players can now change Jobs, use food and potions, move items in their inventory, and join/leave parties and use linkshells while on standby with the crafting log open.Chocobo companions have new animations associated with companion rank and they will now react to the **** and Poke emotes.

The many Miis who call your island home can interact in lots of different ways in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream. Naturally, you may come to wonder whether they have the option to fall in love, and if so, how to make this happen between two characters. Your involvement is crucial in helping all types of relationships form and develop around the island, so this type of bond won't happen on its own. Instead, you have to help the process along, so here's how to get Miis to romance each other in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream. Table of contentsDoes Tomodachi Life Living the Dream have romance?How to get Miis to fall in love in Tomodachi Life Living the DreamAll romance requirements in Tomodachi Life Living the DreamDoes Tomodachi Life Living the Dream have romance? Screenshot by Destructoid Tomodachi Life Living the Dream does have romance, and any adult Miis on your island can crush on and eventually fall in love with any other character who matches their dating preferences. You play a huge role in all relationships that develop on your island, so it's easy to steer them away from a crush or help them delve deeper into it, depending on what you want to happen. How to get Miis to fall in love in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream There's no guaranteed way to make two Miis fall in love and romance each other, but you can do your best to encourage and guide their behavior towards a romantic relationship with careful planning. Here's a breakdown of everything you can do to help make it happen. Make sure your Miis dating preferences are set the way you want them to be. Characters can only develop feelings for Miis who match the dating preferences you specified for them during character creation. You can edit their dating preferences right after selecting their gender. If you skipped this step or wish to edit the choices you made, press X to open the menu, click on the Residents tab, and select the character you want to edit. Choose the dating preferences section and check or uncheck your desired options. Have the Miis you wish to develop a romance become great friends and spend lots of time together. Before a romance can happen, your chosen Miis first need to get to know each other. Drag and drop them close to each other frequently, allowing their bond to flourish as they spend more time together. Wait and hope for the best. Romance is random and unpredictable, which means it can happen at any point once two Miis know each other. In one relationship, I had a Mii start crushing right after the first conversation. In another, it took around 10 interactions before one of the Miis started developing feelings. There's nothing you can do to speed up or help this process along other than have them hang out and interact often. Screenshot by Destructoid Encourage the romance. Once a Mii does start developing a crush, you'll get a special romantic cutscene where they start blushing while staring at the character they're having feelings for. Usually, it's over a sparkling pink background, so when you see sparkles, you'll know it's finally time. After this, they'll ask you if you think they might be in love. To help progress this bond to a romance, you should always tell them you do think it's love or that they would make a great couple. Alternatively, you can also discourage the crush at this point if you don't want the Mii to pursue the selected character romantically. They'll get over the crush right away if you do this. Keep building the bond. Recognizing the crush is only the first step. After this, do your best to keep having the two Miis interact, as the one who developed feelings likely won't want to act on them right away. Crushes can fade away, so it's important to keep the pair interacting to try to keep it alive. Look for a love Pondering. When a Mii is ready to confess, they'll have a pink love Pondering bubble floating over their head. Interact with it and encourage them to reveal their true feelings. If all goes well, they'll then be able to delve into an actual romantic relationship. Relationships can be, and often are at first, one-sided. You have to give the bond time to grow, and hope the other Mii develops feelings too, or that they reveal them when the first Mii who had feelings decides to confess. All romance requirements in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream Screenshot by Destructoid If you just can't get a romance to happen, there's a chance this might be because some key requirements haven't been met. Here's everything that's needed to allow a romance to potentially occur. Miis must know each other, meaning they need to have officially met. The Miis must match each other's dating preferences. Both Miis must be in the same age group, meaning they must both be adults. Miis cannot be family members, so check to make sure you didn't accidentally set them as this during character creation. There's plenty more to get done in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream. Next, you may wish to learn how to get all personalities, how to unlock all shops and facilities, how to get Warm Fuzzies, and what all of the personality traits are.

As you build up your island in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream, you'll regularly unlock new shops, buildings, and other facilities that can improve village life. One of the coolest ones you can get is the MiiWheel Ferris Wheel. Most buildings are easy to unlock by simply expanding upon the number of residents living on your island, but there are a few, like this one, that require some extra work. Here's how to unlock the Ferris Wheel in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream. Table of contentsHow to get MiiWheel Ferris Wheel in Tomodachi Life Living the DreamHow to play Poke the Ferris Wheel minigame in Tomodachi Life Living the DreamHow to get MiiWheel Ferris Wheel in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream Screenshot by Destructoid The MiiWheel Ferris Wheel is added to your island sometimes after you have at least two romantic relationships that have developed in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream. Both of these bonds need to be official, which means they're actually couples, for the MiiWheel requirement to be met. The first step in this process is working on having Miis romance each other. Once you've got a crush going, work on developing it into a full-on relationship, then repeat this process once more with a different set of Miis. After two couples have been made, you'll eventually get a pop-up allowing you to add the MiiWheel to your island. Although having two couples is the requirement for unlocking the Ferris Wheel, it's tough to know exactly when the pop-up will arrive for you. New additions to the island can be a bit unpredictable, and don't always seem to pop up when they're supposed to, so if you don't get it right away, just keep playing and focusing on progressing until it finally appears. The MiiWheel is one of many shops and facilities you can add to your island, so be sure to keep building it up so you can eventually unlock even more. How to play Poke the Ferris Wheel minigame in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream Screenshot by Destructoid After unlocking the MiiWheel, any Mii on your island may prompt you to play a game of Poke the Ferris Wheel with them. This minigame can be a bit tricky to figure out, especially the first time around. Your goal in this game is simply to end the three rounds with the gondola that has your Mii in it at the bottom, in the loading zone. The catch here is that you must use all three pokes, even if you get it in the right spot on the first try. To get going, hold down the A button to charge up your poke. The longer you hold this button, the harder your poke will be. Then, repeat this step again to see where it lands. It all really comes down to the final poke, as this is the one you need to use to get the gondola car to the bottom of the wheel. Judge where the car is and where the bottom is, making your final poke accordingly based on how far you need to go. There's plenty more to uncover in Tomodachi Life Living the Dream.

Pragmata has different types of collectibles for you to find, and obtaining Storage Expanders will allow you to improve the potential of Diana's hacking bar. Her bar's upper limit can be enhanced with upgrades, and Storage Expanders are required for that exact purpose.

However, I have mentioned the locations based on the sectors. Storage Expander 1 location (Solar Power Plant) Screenshot by Destructoid The very first collectible can be found at the Generator Entrance of the Solar Power Plant. Once you complete the Comms Tower quest and obtain the Lim Eraser ability, take the tram back to Block 01, and go through the door on your right. At this point, you'll come across a door blocked by lunafilament. Use your Lim Eraser ability to clear the blockade, and you'll find the first Storage Expander. Storage Expander 2 location (Terra Dome 05) Screenshot and remix by Destructoid The second one is found in the Terra Dome sector. You'll first need to reach Terrarium, and you'll come across a door with a Warning sign. Inside, you'll find the second Storage Expander and a Pure Lunum. How to use Storage Expanders in Pragmata Once you find a Storage Expander, you can upgrade the upper limit of Diana's hacking bar. This will allow you to use the Override Protocol ability, which is ideal for eliminating strong enemies that include bosses. Whenever you find an expander, Diana will eat the collectible to upgrade her hacking bar automatically.
