Learning how to dive with Esquie in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the final exploration upgrade you’ll get access to, but unlike the others, this ability is entirely optional. While out swimming, you’ve likely noticed glowing blue lights in the water, but when you try to interact with them you simply get a message saying…
Deciding whether to pay the odd fountain in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a bit of a quandary. While exploring the initial areas of the continent, you may have encountered this mysterious pool in the Red Woods area, and upon closer examination, realised that you can chuck your hard-earned chroma into it—just like tossing a…

Fan-made remakes of popular games are a risky thing. You never know when you’re going to sink years of your life into a passion project, only to eat a cease and desist letter from an expensive lawyer representing a faceless corporate overlord that forces you to either change it up or shut it down entirely….

Of all of the recent Paradox grand strategy games, Hearts of Iron 4 is the one…
Lockpicking in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion can be a hassle since it’s so different from the lockpicking minigame in later Bethesda RPGs. There’s one item that can make your life a whole lot easier: the Skeleton Key. If you’re fed up with breaking lockpicks all the time, the Skeleton Key is what you need….
