Picture it: a crumbling world in the wake of a great collapse, filled with pornographic inequality and quotidian violence. A world where the uttermost limit of respectable politics seems to be presiding over—sometimes slowing, sometimes hastening, never reversing—a process of inexorable decline. What am I talking about? Oh, you read the headline? That’s cheating. Yes,…
Okay, that’s some bombastic headlining right there, but when one of the people behind the success of Nvidia’s DLSS feature reckons a new AI innovation in gaming is “gonna blow your mind” I’m prepared to listen.

I’m still chewing on the thick, juicy slab of meat that is World of Warcraft: Midnight for our review—eagerly awaiting the launch of Season 1 later this week.
