Less than a month ago, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 modding community was turning everyone in the game into perfectly round balls of flesh. But fashions change quickly in the medieval world. Fat is out and thin is in, courtesy of this mod that transforms every KCD 2 character into an actual skeleton. “Here’s a…
The last couple of months have been packed with massive games. Monster Hunter Wilds, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Split Fiction, and Fragpunk have all proved enormously popular with players, and let’s not forget the leftfield indie smash that is REPO. But which of these games has the fattest stacks this week—which of…
Even if you haven’t yet played Nate Purkeypile’s most recent game, “heavy metal horror” hunting game The Axis Unseen, you’ve probably played at least one of his games at some point. Purkeypile, founder of Just Purkey Games, worked on BloodRayne 2, Aeon Flux, and Metroid Prime 3, then spent a full 14 years at Bethesda…
One running joke that has always alarmed my friends is how nice I think a Fallout apocalypse would be. Not on ground zero, mind, I’m talking about getting to sleep for 100 years (which I could really use right about now) in a cryovat, to then wake up and get to explore a new untamed…
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is doing very well. Incredibly well. You wouldn’t believe how well it’s doing. But despite it all, it’s not doing quite as well as AC Valhalla did back in November 2020—Shadows is the second-biggest launch in the series’ long history, not the first. But per an internal Ubisoft email seen by IGN,…
Usually, when I see the term ‘gaming desk’, I think whatever marketer has got their hands on the keyboard has maybe been a bit overzealous, yet the Thunder X2 Lab-X makes a decent argument for that in its many neat additions. The Lab-X has a mesh side plate (with crucial optional fan brackets) for cooling,…
While Tarn Adams, creator of Dwarf Fortress, is technically a millionaire—he’s never quite minced his words like one, especially about the nonsense that goes on in the gaming industry. Last year at GDC, he came out swinging against a brutal year of industry layoffs. This year, while speaking to PC Gamer’s own Lincoln Carpenter, he…
Your standard RPG romantic interludes probably wouldn’t make much sense in Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2. You’re not some adventurer, hero, or even an anti-hero. You are Phyre, an old monster who spends their unlife drinking blood, killing without mercy and plotting until the sun comes up. But that doesn’t mean romance is completely…
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 won’t be appearing in the first half of 2025. After so many delays, I have a feeling prospective bloodsuckers will already be pretty used to this. At least its new release window is more appropriate than the summer; it’s now due out in October, the spookiest month of the…
AMD’s next-gen APU has apparently leaked. But don’t get too excited because “Gorgon Point”, as it’s known, looks very much like a refresh of AMD’s current Strix Point chip rather than a radical advance or really even a new chip at all. AMD was reportedly making a presentation to its commercial partners, likely including laptop…
