As I’ve previously written about, right now I’m playing Oblivion Remastered as a sneaky, stabby, arrow-firing elven rogue. And, so far it’s been great. The ranged combat in Oblivion was always more dramatic and visceral than in melee, and it’s been very satisfying for me so far to pepper my foes with arrows from range,…
The new Brushes with Death DLC for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is pretty straightforward, but there’s a point that might trip you up if you haven’t been making potions or using herbs. Finding some Valerian for Kvyetoslava is a step in the Source of Inspiration quest, as you help the grandma recall the location of…

Something went very wrong with the last patch and messed up how Stratagems normally work: Using a simple combination of inputs, you can now spam them until the game can’t handle it…
No matter what reactions a Hideo Kojima game elicits from you, we can all appreciate swinging for the fences. Death Stranding is the sort of game that, in our profoundly risk-averse business, should have never gotten the sizable Sony-backed budget it did, but such is the power of Kojima’s name. Still, I have to imagine…

In a post on X earlier today, visual artist Antireal said that Marathon’s environment art uses design elements pulled directly from her 2017 poster designs. “Bungie is of course not obligated to hire me when making…
