It feels like Overwatch 2’s collaborations have only scratched the surface as its hero roster is ripe for the picking when it comes to cool, themed skins. The game’s community is not short on ideas for the game’s purchasable outfits, like a recent fun collab featuring X-Men ’97 skins, but another one featuring Marvel characters in general may be even better.

Since Larian has confirmed that it is done with the Baldur’s Gate license, some fans have been concerned about the future of the series, but there is an even better choice to work on an expansion to Baldur’s Gate 3 or a potential Baldur’s Gate 4 that could easily outshine Larian. Obsidian has defined itself as the premiere pinch hitter for RPG development. The company’s follow-ups to BioWare’s Neverwinter Nights and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic surpassed the originals, just as Obsidian did with Fallout: New Vegas, a superior game to Bethesda’s Fallout 3 by most metrics.

Counter-Strike 2 has had ups and downs since its launch in September of last year. The most rampant issue for players was and is cheating and a lackluster anti-cheat. However, players think that cheating isn’t the only problem and have named many other “real issues” in a recent Reddit thread. The thread, posted on April 22, contained a long and extensive list of issues that have plagued CS2 for months. The original poster, blairxv, cited interpolation (dying when you don’t see the ******, shots missing or hitting when they shouldn’t), a botched economy with the MR12 system, and general clarity as the primary issues aside from cheating. Valve has been making strides to fix some of these, particularly the interpolation side of things with significant networking updates. The company attempted to address clarity as well by adding a new cl_bob option, though that didn’t prove to be the right solution for many players. View the full article

But a new LOTR game coming out looks to combine the Hobbit hometown with elements of games like Animal Crossing and Disney Dreamlight Valley to create an interesting spin on the cozy life-sim genre.

Fallout. It's a series of games about what happens when someone pushes that big red button to drop the nukes, damning an alternate timeline version of humanity to spend an eternity doing fun little quests among the rubble. Within that, there's scope for some of the best RPG fun you can get, no matter what kind of fun it is that you're looking for in an RPG. We've all thought about what'd happen if the ****** were to actually fall, and since 1997, first Interplay and ****** Isle, now Bethesda - with some help from Obsidian and now Amazon, have offered us a chance to see just how we might fare if forced to roam the radioactive streets of post-apocalyptic America. The answer in reality is that we'd all probably **** very quickly, but hey, that's what video games are for - to give us a chance to dream. But, which of the Fallouts is the best? It's a loaded question for sure, an one you'll end up answering differently depending on what you want out of a Fallout game. However, because the terrifying ****** that pulls the strings of our world has yanked it in a direction where things need to be ranked on websites, here's our attempt to do just that for the Fallout series, both main-line entries and all the spin-offs that're actually worth caring about.

The Fallout TV show is continuing to have an impressive ripple effect on its source material. Last week saw Fallout 76 hit its highest-ever concurrent player count on Steam, while Fallout Shelter saw a humble bump in player count and revenue. Unsurprisingly, the game reaping the biggest benefits from the show's success is Fallout 4. Despite it being almost nine years old at this point, it's technically the most recent mainline entry—one which was one of the most-played games on Steam this weekend...

Adding new dungeons and bosses to Minecraft through mods isn’t anything new or revolutionary. However, HexNowLoading is creating what may become the best dungeon mod of them all.Dungeon Now Loading 1% is incredibly ambitiousHexNowLoading has been experimenting with and making dungeons for Minecraft for a while. The first video he uploaded was a showcase of The Labyrinth, which was uploaded almost two years ago. Although it’s been reworked significantly, The Labyrinth is the spiritual predecessor for the first dungeon added in Dungeon Now Loading 1%.The lofty aim for this mod is to add 100 new detailed dungeons, each with their own complex bosses. As a new dungeon and boss gets added, the name will change to reflect this by increasing the percentage by 1.

Fittingly, Duriel the Maggot King is scrounging up maggots for a good cause. View the full article
At the end of last year I played the demo for An English Haunting and got very excited. I like horror that has a generally spooky, creeping dread vibe rather than being wall-to-wall cheap jumpscares and gore, and that sort of stuff is thin on the ground. But it'll be less so from May the 15th, cos that's when this ghosty point and click puzzle adventure is out! Hooray! The demo is still on Steam if you want a taste before then. In the meantime, the release date announcement comes with a new trailer to enjoy. Read more View the full article
