Puzzling out how to respec in Lords of the Fallen is one of those classic Soulslike challenges, as you run around Mournstead looking for whatever mysterious item will let you reallocate your stat points. You may have noticed when you first talked to Pieta in Skyrest Bridge, that she has a Reset Build option in…
It had to happen at some point but Valve’s much-loved Steam Deck has been falling down its weekly revenue charts for a little while now. For the past two weeks, though, it’s dropped outside of the top ten, suggesting that competition from ASUS, Ayaneo, OneXPlayer, and Aokzoe has taken a sizeable slice of the handheld…
Tech market analyst Trendforce (via Techpowerup) is predicting a pretty eye-popping 323% growth in OLED monitor sales in 2023, taking the total units sold to over 500,000.

Digital game aids (such as D&D Beyond) and shared virtual table spaces (such as Roll20) have been around for a while now, but increasingly…
Microsoft cordially invites you to have a crack at tipping its new AI-powered Bing search tools into existential meltdown. And it will pay you up to $15,000 for your trouble. Well, it will if you manage to bait AI Bing in just the right way. Yup, AI Bing has joined Microsoft’s bug bounty program (via…
It’s time. Starfield finally has its most important mod—more important than the script extender, more vital than StarUI—something that changes the game entirely. Thomas the Tank Engine is not, by any means, looming horrifically in the dark corners of my room and forcing me to write this. Ominously titled “Really Useful Starfield“, this mod by…

After some earlier rumour-mongering, confirmation has finally been given by Gigabyte that it is to release a new Radeon RX 6750 card, specifically a GRE edition. This will be exclusive to China but this doesn’t mean you won’t be able to pick one up, potentially in a pre-built system as with the RX 7900 GRE,…
