‘It’s a damn miracle we were able to salvage Hytale,’ original co-founder and new owner Simon Collins-Laflamme says: After years in development at Riot, ‘it was barely playable’

It was a happy ending for Hytale fans, or at least a happy new beginning, when original co-founder Simon Collins-Laflamme acquired the game from Riot in November 2025 and set about getting it ready for launch.

‘There’s a lot of cool things that, if you think too hard about it, they should never have worked’: Fallout 3’s pathfinding system had to be completely reworked over several months to account for Liberty Prime, but it was worth it because he’s ‘awesome’

You may remember the march of Liberty Prime, a set piece from Fallout 3 where the massive communist-hating robot stampedes across the wasteland and terrorizes everything in his path. Even climactic moments like the faceoff against big bad Mehrunes Dagon in Oblivion, which released two years before Fallout 3, seem static compared to Prime; Dagon…
