Just two weeks ago, I talked about how cool it was that Arc Raiders players had been trading guns for binoculars to effectively create lore-abiding news reports and nature documentary-style footage.

Windows 11 adoption has been slow for many different reasons, from hardware constraints to people just not wanting to do it. Both valid reasons, I think.

Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser—freed from the mysterious and press-sceptical chains of his former company—has once again manifested on a podcast. Or, actually, on national UK radio, which is what they used to call podcasts back during the war. Houser popped up on Virgin Radio UK to chat with host Chris Evans (not that Chris Evans)…

The Building a Library quest in Arc Raiders is fairly simple, especially as it’s confined to one specific building in the Buried City. Speranza’s resident explosives peddler, Apollo, asks you to find three books in the city library, namely a detective, romance, and adventure book. The genres don’t matter much; you just have to find…
There’s been a deep, unfortunate friction between voice actors and videogame studios, recently—the looming spectre of AI hangs large over everything, with some bigwigs salivating at the idea of getting infinite performances out of people without actually paying them. That is, despite the fact that—aside from efforts so far mostly being bland as all hell,…
It feels like only yesterday semiwork announced that the team would be taking a break before working on the next update. Which isn’t actually entirely inaccurate as it’s been less than a month and we’re already got the first video about the next release. So, it looks like we won’t have to wait too long…
