Casey Yano, co-creator of Slay the Spire and co-founder of studio Mega Crit Games, has given a new interview to Edge magazine about designing the sequel to a roguelike deckbuilder that, honestly, pretty much got it right first time. With some games it’s obvious what a sequel could build on or improve, but when your…
Crimson Desert is a massive game with a heap of weird and wonderful systems. Pet dress-up, anyone? What about riding a polar bear into battle? Even with animal affinities aside, that means a lot of moving parts, which in turn means many, many, many squeaky wheels crying out for grease. As such, developer Pearl Abyss…
Just because you can, it doesn’t mean you should. Wise words and, dare I say, highly relevant in the context of the pursuit of ever more realistic VR experiences. To wit, would you really want to include accurate odours? Hold that thought, because we haven’t addressed the “can you” bit. It turns out a group…
Pearl Abyss cannot leave Crimson Desert alone for more than a handful of days. The developer’s been pumping out patch after patch, each one somehow bigger than the last. I’ve been having mixed feelings on how much the game has been changing in such a short period of time, but even I have to admit…
Earlier this month, Intel teamed up with Elon Musk to “help refactor silicon fab technology” for Musk’s ambitious Terafab project. Now, in a Tesla earnings call, the tech mogul has said he will use the company’s upcoming 14A node to make chips for this project. Terafab is Musk’s (one might say) bold venture into making…
If you’re anything like me, you’ve laughed yourself sick at the various attempts robots have made to enter the arena of human sports. The World Humanoid Robot Games was, well, something of a disaster, and the Terminator-like uprising seems to be a long way away. It was only a matter of time until one became…
Fragmentary Order is the upcoming hardcore sci-fi extraction shooter led by Escape from Tarkov’s creator, Nikita Buyanov—he’s still working on Tarkov at Battlestate Games, though. But the extraction shooter has changed (in large part due to Arc Raiders) since Tarkov’s eight-year beta period beginning in 2016, and even its full 1.0 release at the end…
As a routine World of Warcraft player, I’ve been pretty warm on Midnight—at the very least, the offerings it provided on launch all seemed well put together, with a few asterisks. Those asterisks are starting to bog down the sentences they’re attached to, though, as the game’s latest patch, 12.0.5, is utterly rife with bugs….
We’ve previously reported on the adventures of Dr. Semiconductor, a YouTuber who managed to build a working cleanroom in their backyard shed. As if that achievement wasn’t impressive enough, the good doctor is now using said cleanroom to make their own DRAM cells. Yes, the RAMpocalypse has come for us all, but Dr. Semiconductor appears…
As a fan of gaming on the go—whether that be handhelds or yearning for the good old days when my ancient gaming laptop actually worked—I can tell you that the spectre of ‘low battery’ haunts me. So when modular laptop aficionados Framework announced the Framework 13 Pro earlier this week, touting both its battery life…
