Matt Firor has been in the MMO business since 2001, the days of Dark Age of Camelot, and ran The Elder Scrolls Online developer ZeniMax Online Studios until 2025. Firor resigned in response to the cancellation of in-development MMO Blackbird and the mass layoffs that followed. Firor still plays The Elder Scrolls Online in secret,…
Let’s be real for a second: repairing weapons in games is not a fun activity. In fact, the only time I remember ever enjoying upkeeping my shooters was in Red Dead Redemption 2, when I got to lather them with gun oil and make them all nice and shiny. Is repairing weapons in Arc Raiders…
I don’t know about you, but I’ve always ignored Fertilizer in Arc Raiders. Until now, it’s had no purpose besides recycling into Assorted Seeds or selling it for a measly 1,000 coins. But with the Riven Tides update, we all suddenly need to get a handful of Fertilizer for the Avian Alarm project. More specifically,…

As the question of Grand Theft Auto 6‘s release date dies down (hopefully there won’t be another delay), the question of how much it will go for is starting to pop up. Everyone seems to have their own theories, and while I think we’ll be seeing a $100 price tag, Take-Two Interactive’s CEO Strauss Zelnick…
If you care about memory, PC gaming, or technology in general, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of a little ‘ol thing called the memory crisis. Thanks to AI gobbling up all the resources, it’s the reason why RAM has quadrupled in price recently (if you’re lucky). Some big companies may be able to weather…
If this report is true it’s not exactly surprising, but it’s still kind of shocking. Apple has reportedly “given up” on its Vision Pro VR headset. According to Mac Rumours, the latest M5-powered revision of the Vision Pro has been a “flop”. As a consequence, “Apple has apparently stopped work on the Vision Pro and…
