And so, the Final Fantasy 14 free trial copypasta gets longer once more. The MMO has been show-ponied around by the community for its rather generous free trial for ages now. First it was up to level 60 including Heavensward, and then in 2023 was extended to include Stormblood. And as of today’s Patch 7.5,…
When Final Fantasy 14 director and producer Naoki Yoshida took to the stage for his opening keynote at the North American Fan Festival, I knew change was coming. He’d been hinting that the next expansion—which we now know is called Evercold—would mark a new era of Final Fantasy 14. Despite that, I still thought it…
Believe it or not, but you can play a photorealistic FPS in your browser right now, even if you don’t have a massive GPU. This simple FPS project doesn’t exactly offer pulse pounding gameplay, but is instead head-turning for how it conjures a photorealistic environment without hogging your rig’s resources. The project was made by…
Finding a Comet Igniter for Tian Wen in Arc Raiders‘ Collision Course quest is simple if you know the trick to getting them. If you don’t, or you haven’t encountered this Arc enemy much, then it’s much more of a bother. These exploding balls always seem to catch me at the most inopportune moment and…
Arc Raiders’ latest big update, Riven Tides, is finally upon us and it doesn’t just bring beach holidays and ice cream cone arcs—there’s also a bunch of updates in the patch notes, but the biggest change is coming for your guns. Weapon durability is getting dropped and high-level spawns are being moved closer to the…
Samsung announced its “world’s first” 6K gaming monitor back at CES. But now it’s finally gone on sale, listed for pre-order on Samsung’s German website for €1,499. We’d expect a dollar price at around the same figure. So, what exactly would you be getting for your €1,500 from the Samsung Odyssey G8 (G80HS)? The basics…
Arc Raiders‘ new Avian Alarm project is almost just like any other project, demanding you donate a bunch of random materials to complete each stage. However, the first step is actually more like a quest, where you’ll have to lay a bird trap next to buoys in the new Riven Tides map. Once you’ve done…
Completing the Battening Down quest in Arc Raiders took me longer than I expected. Usually I’m pretty good at sussing out locations, but one in particular, the leaking oil pipe you have to repair, is actually very hard to find. While you get directions pointing you towards the correct pipeline, no parts of it are…
Shoring Up Defenses is one of the three starting quests in Arc Raiders‘ Riven Tides update. It’s all about reinforcing key locations across the beach-based map and clearing out the robots that have moved in. And just for accepting the quest, Apollo will give you a Dockmaster’s Detector, which you can use in the Beachcombing…
Crimson Desert’s been having a moment. On April 15, it hit five million sales, and last week the prime minister of South Korea celebrated the achievement, calling it a “new chapter in K-content”. To top it all off, Pearl Abyss has paid its employees a 5 million won bonus, or around $3,392/£2,513. This was reported…
