There’s a tradition among Dungeons & Dragons players—and honestly, RPGs at large—that if you get to a high enough level, you’re gonna kill a god. Unless, of course, you’re running a campaign for a table of obstinate players who want to kill the devil instead. This officially-sanctioned D&D book from Arcanum Worlds lets you do…
In what is becoming almost an annual event, though hardly the celebratory kind, Ubisoft has announced it is closing the servers for a bunch of the publisher’s older titles. In the past Ubisoft has somewhat messed-up the messaging on such things, leaving players under the false impression that the affected titles would become unplayable, but…

The Asus ROG Zephyrus is one of the nicest laptops I’ve tested in recent memory, almost ruined by an unnecessary RTX 4090. Let me explain—because the Zephyrus G14 does some things very well. Starting with the chassis; this laptop comes with a milled magnesium-aluminium lid and the finish is excellent. There’s no faulting the subdued…
Slim, eh? I’m not into the body shaming of portable gaming systems, but if the Lenovo Legion Chunky is ever released, it’s going to need a larger reviewer. Basically, I’m not convinced that it’s slight enough to justify that ‘Slim’ moniker. Still, there are benefits to having something this substantial on your lap. The keyboard…
Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 (which I’ll be calling ‘Bloodlines 2’ from here on) has had a troubled history. Its initial developer, Hardsuit Labs, fired both the game’s lead writer Brian Mitsoda and creative director Ka’ai Cluney in 2020. A senior narrative designer, Cara Ellison, left later that year.
