Baldur’s Gate 3 is going strong eight months after release, with players still learning things the hard way as if it came out yesterday. One such player was met with an unfortunate circumstance in the game’s Honor mode due to taking the leisure of Balanced difficulty for granted. On April 7, one Baldur’s Gate 3 player shared their experience with the game’s Honor mode, a difficulty level recently added in Patch 5, in a massive Reddit thread. As the hardest difficulty to play BG3 on, Honor naturally has its strange caveats—ones the player likely didn’t even dream of after beating the game on the recommended Balanced mode. Since Balanced offers players plenty of opportunities to heal and rest up at the so-called restoration pods, Reddit user ecchi_yajur’s Honor mode run was absolutely ruined when they found out that Larian removed those restoration pods from certain locations to spice up the Honor mode gameplay.

If you’re looking to get your hands on a lot of sweet loot, then Securement Silos are one of your best options. Hitting Securement Silo Alpha isn’t the easiest in Once Human, but it does result in much better loot than quite a few of the others, especially with this walkthrough.Where to find Securement Silo AlphaHeading into the Northwest of the Chalk Peak region of Once Human will lead you to Securement Silo Alpha. It is located just to the Northwest of Greelake Hill, up the mountain. There is a handy teleportation tower situated right by it, so you won’t have to climb the mountain every time you want to run through it.Screenshot: PC InvasionThis is one of the ******* Securement Silos in Once Human for now until they add more. It can be run solo if you’re feeling up to it, but I would suggest heading in with a few buddies. I would also say you should aim to be around level 35 before attempting this Securement Silo Alpha walkthrough. But who am I ...View the full article
If you're looking for ways to expand Starfield's replayability, a new "DLC-sized" mod is now available, allowing players to build their own colony, create mechs, and more. Over on Nexus Mods yesterday, modder TankGirl444 uploaded their latest project, TGs Galactic Colonies Expanse. The creator describes it as a "new DLC-sized mod" for Bethesda's 2023 space action RPG. The description touts that those who download it will be able to "land on any world and build [their] own empire!" TankGirl444 explains that the mod took them a month to craft and that it expands on their previous mods that were aimed at improving and expanding player home and building in Starfield. More importantly, it greatly expands the Outpost mechanic, allowing players a more streamlined way to mine materials without having to create different outposts. The mod's description also explains that it includes "fully constructed buildings that are prefabricated and buildable." This includes biodomes, which allow players to plant a small piece of green on desolate and barren wasteland planets. Interestingly, this mod introduces a farming system where players can farm, craft, and sell fruits and veggies. It even allows you to have your own livestock. Alongside an expansive farming system, the mod features a new workbench called the colony food printer, which adds new food items and recipes. Yet, the thing I found most intriguing is how this new mod brings functional mechs into Starfield, as seen in the image below. Those who played Starfield or are familiar with the events before the game, mainly The Colony War, will know that mechs have a place in Starfield lore. Ahead of the game's release, Bethesda revealed that mechs were in the game, but you could not use them as they were banned after the conclusion of the Colony War. This mod brings back the mechs, letting you craft and use them as a defense for your outposts. It also reveals new turrets and weapons you can craft to defend your virtual property. Starfield has been out for roughly six months now, and alongside TGs Galactic Colonies Expanse, there are a slew of other quality-of-life mods that help enhance the gameplay experience. Among them are one that improves the frustrating inventory UI, another that provides a map of New Atlantis so you don't get lost while exploring the massive city, and another that lets you seamlessly travel through space. While there are many modders adding quality-of-life improvements to Starfield, Bethesda Game Studios is also introducing some changes via patches. The most recent update, Starfield Update 1.10.31, removes an annoying penalty players can receive when playing the lockpicking minigame.
