While there may not be too many massive cities to explore in , one fan's idea to introduce more is turning heads in the community although not everyone seems to be too enthused with the idea. While players cruise around the galaxy and explore the thousands of largely barren planets on offer, 's story will undoubtedly drive them toward several major areas of human existence: New Atlantis, Akila City, Neon, and The Key. Outside of these locales, most of the other settlements are small hamlets constructed on planets that don't have an atmosphere that could sustain a society.

Sony has officially backed down from forcing all players on Steam to link their account to PlayStation Network after a weekend of boycotts, negative reviews, and mass refunds. Announced shortly before the launch of the game's next season, the switch from an optional to a mandatory PSN account managed to provoke the community after it was discovered that 121 countries around the world would be blocked from playing the game due to the service not being available. Fortunately, Arrowhead Studios and PlayStation have come to a solution that's satisfied the player base.

Through players' adventures across the Forgotten Realms, they'll undoubtedly come across piles of powerful loot to help beef up the stats of Astarion, Shadowheart, Wyll, and anyone else you might need an edge in combat. enthusiasts may recognize some of the more notorious weapons but now it's time for fans to shine.

Through players' adventures in Pelican Town, they'll be able to collect a plethora of decorations for their houses, including one particular cool item that takes the form of a lengthy fish tank that can be filled with various ornaments. Following the recent 1.6 Update, a new piece of fishy furniture can now be added to the aquarium that's no doubt a cheeky nod to the most iconic sea sponge of all time.

A new version of one of the rarest games of all time is coming to theNintendo Switch and it should hopefully appeal to retro fans and newcomers alike. Nintendo enthusiasts will undoubtedly remember a time when the company used to host the Nintendo World Championship, a tournament that saw competitors taking on a variety of different games based on popular releases to show off their skills with a controller. The Game Pak for the Nintendo World Championship 1990 event is considered the rarest NES game of all time but fortunately, a new version is on the way for Switch.

PlayStation Plus is offering up yet another collection of stellar games for its users in May and one of them may just be one of the most underrated adventure games in recent memory. While subscribers to the service can look forward to mega-hits like the ever-popular , the latest chapter in the shooter's sprawling saga, it's the small independent games that often make the service stand out. One of the benefits of receiving a random assortment of new titles to play every month is that users can find gems that they otherwise may have missed.

Fans tickled by Prime Video's series are in luck because the subscription service is offering the first chapter in the modern saga for all its users to play at no extra charge. Following the show's successful premiere on the streaming platform, the entire post-apocalyptic RPG franchise has been reinvigorated as veterans return to their favorite moments and newcomers seek out what inspired the story of Lucy MacLean. While the first two games may not be included in the most recent Amazon Prime Gaming drop, the third installment is actually the perfect place to start.

is making a massive change to its PC version and the community couldn't be more annoyed. Ever since the popular third-person shooter launched on PlayStation 5 and Steam, the game has boasted an enormous player base that's only grown larger as developer Arrowhead Studios has continued to support the game with extensive content patches. Unfortunately, many of those users who have participated in Super Earth's galactic war are disgruntled because of a new requirement that may make it significantly harder to enjoy the game.

The 1.6 Update for introduced plenty of new features into the game and one of them, the bookseller, has just become even better thanks to the work of a talented fan. Appearing twice every season on random dates, the bookseller floats into Pelican Town and dishes out his wares to the farmer, who stands to gain some handy stat boosts if they purchase his guides. While there are already just under 35 different books that can be purchased, one player took it one step further by introducing even more to the merchant's stock.

fans hoping for even more expansions after the upcoming DLCare out of luck as creative director Hidetaka Miyazaki shared some bad news about the game's future. Released in 2022, the community has waited for over two years to return to The Lands Between and while pre-release footage continues to look promising, some are already looking to the future. While FromSoftware is known for releasing at least a couple of expansions for their RPGs, with a few exceptions, it seems like won't receive any further post-launch support.

One of the biggest mods ever created for just shared an incredibly in-depth look into its development and it's a monumental achievement for all the volunteers who have contributed to the project. Announced shortly after Bethesda's RPG arrived in 2011, the incredibly ambitious mod known as has been in development for over a decade as the team behind has painstakingly worked to add the entirety of into. It's a massive undertaking, and based on the latest footage, development is progressing steadily.

Players who are just picking up are luck because the game's best event is about to return to help all those newcomers become more accustomed the zany world of the Appalachian Wasteland. Over the course of 's many seasons of content drops, one event in particular has returned on several occasions due to the overwhelmingly positive reception its garnered from the game's community. Now that Bethesda's open-world survival MMO is more popular than ever thanks to the Prim Video adaptation, it's time to introduced those fresh-faced fans to the Zeta aliens.

may be littered with dangerous critters intent on causing players harm but one user discovered that even the smoldering forests of the Ashlands have violence in their hearts. Following the release of the game's latest major content update, the community has ventured bravely into the firey unknown in an effort to scavenge new resources, build stronger weapons, and investigate what horrors could dwell within such a Hellish environment. While many are understandably cautious of giant monsters, it pays to remember that death can spring forward from the most unlikely of places.

While there may already be plenty of LEGO sets for the universe, two video game-exclusive characters may finally get the due as a joint set. The galaxy far, far away has become known as one of LEGO's standout sets thanks to the brand's blocky aesthetic fitting neatly with the franchise's vehicles and landscapes. Yet while plenty of very obscure characters have been immortalized as LEGO pieces, two iconic heroes have yet to earn the same treatment but this may fortunately be about to change.

While Square Enix may remain quiet when it comes to the development of , a new report alleges that the highly-anticipated sequel could be out sooner than expected. Despite its massive fanbase and passionate community, isn't exactly known for maintaining a consistent release schedule given that over a decade passed between the launch of the second and third games. Smaller titles have been released for handheld systems and mobile devices in that time span, but the mainline franchise has always suffered when it comes to consistent releases.

Microsoft has unveiled a slew of new games coming to Xbox Game Pass in the near future and subscribers can look forward to plenty of Day-One releases. One of the best parts about the console's subscription service is the ability to play new titles for no extra cost the moment they launch, meaning those who use the platform have access to a wealth of fresh titles that they don't need to pay an additional fee to access. Following the recent ID@Xbox showcase, the company confirmed that the next few months will be packed with some exciting Day-One drops.

It's not often that one gets to climb into a gigantic tank in , but one talented player managed to do just that by creating a powerful vehicle that serves as a homage to another classic video game series. Thanks to the incredible building mechanics available in the latest game, the community has spent thousands of collective hours pushing the system to its limits in an effort to create as many wonderful contraptions as possible. This build is one such instance of hours of effort paying off with a functional death machine.

After a couple of months of consistent updates for , ConcernedApe has released yet another patch that adjusts the game and while it may not be massive in terms of content, it should make a particular kind of farmer very happy. While the farming RPG may be nearly a decade old, it continues to be one of the best-supported video games in recent memory as its creator continues to listen to the community's feedback. The recent 1.6 Update was one of the biggest expansions to date, so it stands to reason that some bugs need to be squashed.

and may not have great deal in common but those fans who want to see the Forgotten Realms clash with Pelican Town are in luck because a new mod is aiming to accomplish just that. Over the last few months, it's difficult to think of two games that have dominated the industry more than and, thanks to the former receiving its 1.6 Update and the latter earning a plethora of awards for its impeccable writing and game design. Mixing them both sounds impossible, but that's not stopping some talented fans.

Walton Goggins' Cooper «The Ghoul» Howard is undoubtedly the break-out character of Prime Video's series and fans of the show who are desperate to roam around as the gunslinger can now do so thanks to an impressive new mod. Given the sheer amount of customization options available to players in Bethesda's post-apocalyptic RPG, it stands to reason that someone would eventually conjure up a convincing take on The Ghoul. However, since the base game doesn't allow players to become Ghouls, some modding is necessary to achieve the desired look.

players who enjoy firing massive lasers at their enemies are out of luck because the latest balance update just introduced some major nerfs while also making some interesting tweaks to certain missions. Arrowhead Studios has demonstrated its passion for live-service support by issuing dozens of patches that accomplish small goals like fixing bugs and glitches to introducing larger changes like the addition of new enemies and weapons. While the community wasn't too pleased with the previous balance update, the most recent attempt to level the playing feel is seemingly going down much smoother.

In a game as big as , it stands to reason that even some of the most obvious Easter eggs would remain hidden for month after release but thanks to one eagle-eyed fan, the latest discovery is a throwback to the classic era of video games. Bethesda is known for sneaking in plenty of fun references to other titles in its massive RPGs, and while some can be quite on the nose, most are subtle nods of recognition. is no different, but to really appreciate this new find, one must be familiar with some classic hardware.

Given the vocal nature of the community, it stands to reason that developer ConcernedApe has taken some cues from players over the years, and one fan has just discovered proof. Throughout its nearly decade-long lifespan, the fantastic farming RPG has been expanded upon with a wealth of new items and content for players to discover, and the latest 1.6 Update is no different. The Iridium Scythe, which was introduced in the latest major patch, is one such addition that was clearly based on an intuitive suggestion from a dedicated fan.

While one might think that Ripperdocs are some of the most trained and responsible professionals in , one fan shares their discovery that suggests even they can get it wrong sometimes. Through V's journey through the underworld of Night City, they'll be able to meet up with several surgeons who specialize in equipping cybernetic augmentations to the protagonist's body, making them significantly more powerful in the process. One such upgrade is the Sandevistan operating system which works wonders if it's installed correctly.

is an incredible game, there's no doubt about that, but one aspect that developer Arrowhead Studios has promised to re-evaluate is the implementation of the «auto-climb» mechanic that has frustrated many since launch. To help facilitate more tactical gameplay without sacrificing too much in the way of speed, incorporates a system that allows players to automatically vault onto or over an obstacle that gets in their way while sprinting. While it works most of the time, when it decides to grow a mind of its own the consequences can be extremely annoying.

may be a game solely committed to boots-on-the-ground combat, but one industrious fan has an incredible vision for how space combat and dogfighting could function. While Arrowhead Studios' third-person shooter is riddled with starships and cruisers, even giving players their own Super Destroyer to travel the pathways between planets, it's not actually possible to use these vessels to battle enemies. It may be too much to expect from the developers, given the scale of such an addition, but some kind of space battle mechanic would be amazing, especially if it takes its cues from this fan's video.

may already feature plenty of unique classes for players to enjoy but one fan went a step further by creating one of ' most beloved archetypes for the game. Larian Studios spent years developing its Forgotten Realms RPG so that anyone could complete its sprawling narrative, no matter their character's class, race, or build. While this kind of commitment to balance is no doubt appreciated by the community, those who wanted a little more technology infused with their magic were sorely disappointed to find that such an option doesn't exist.

may already be filled with a plethora of gigantic beasts to battle and tame, but fans of large and imposing arachnids who feel like the game is lacking in spiders should check out this impressive mod. Throughout survivors' journies across The Island, plenty of fearsome dinosaurs will rear their intimidating heads, and while they may not all be aggressive, it's still a good idea to form a small collection of beasts that make combat significantly easier. While the latest addition may not pack a massive punch, it makes up for this shortcoming with its adorable appearance.

While and may share some similarities in terms of their tone and content, one player managed to make the connection even more authentic with an impressive ship build that evokes the terror of one of the most fearsome alien races in all of fiction. Bethesda's latest sci-fi RPG may feature a handful of alien creatures for players to battle but when it comes to intelligent life, 's take on the galaxy is somewhat lonely, especially when exploring the surface of a planet. Still, having no extraterrestrial factions is certainly more desirable than coming face-to-face with the Borg.

is a massive game filled with secrets and rare events but one fan may have just discovered one of the rarest pieces of dialogue in the entire game. While the most common way of playing through Larian Studios' RPG is to gather up a party of daring adventurers and form a competent group of killers, some players prefer to not worry about the various NPCs constantly trailing behind Tav. A «Solo» playthrough can be a difficult task given some particularly challenging boss fights but those who rise to the occasion are in for some unique events.

When it comes to challenging the Automatons in , the Devastators are no laughing matter, even when players are able to perform some impressive fancy footwork to avoid a magazine of high-impact rounds. In general, most Helldivers would prefer to simply destroy their opponent rather than engage in a dance of dodges, especially when the cost of failure could result in a painful casualty. However, there will always be those who want to push their limits and really stick it to the Automatons for their cruel and merciless onslaught across the galaxy.

In a game like that's already overflowing with secrets, one fan's discovery of a new, seemingly rare Easter egg is definitely cause for excitement. Over the course of the farming RPG's development, creator ConcernedApe has quietly added plenty of special details and features that only the most dedicated players have managed to unearth. While the animation of the developer's logo that occurs when it's clicked a few times during 's start-up is one of the more commonly-known secrets, a recent discovery suggests there's even more to unearth.

While Xbox Game Pass subscribers are no doubt trying to play some of the bigger releases of April, those wanting to experience an exceptional roguelike that didn't receive the hype that he deserved should keep their eyes peeled for the end of the month. With major Day-One launches like the JRPG and the sleeper early-access hit , April has proven to be an especially successful month for Microsoft as its catalog of offered games grew with some excellent titles. To cap off such a big month, an excellent indie gem is exactly what users need.

tasks players with making some tough decisions as they embark upon a journey across the Commonwealth Wasteland, and now a new mod is looking to judge whether the actions of the Sole Survivor are morally reprehensible or not. Throughout many of Bethesda's older games like and, Karma played a key role in determining how the world reacted to the player. Despite its widespread inclusion, the system is widely hated by fans who have criticized it for being obtuse, poorly implemented, and arbitrary in what it deems to be good or evil.

already provides players with plenty of powerful weapons to help spread managed democracy around the galaxy, butone player wants to hone in on one of the game's most powerful weapons that was tragically nerfed into oblivion. Following 's launch in February 2024, developer Arrowhead Studio was quick to issue a post-launch balance patch that made certain weapons less effective and some enemies more powerful. The Railgun, which was hailed by many as being the strongest firearm available, was severely affected by the update as its incredible damage decreased significantly.

is known for having plenty of factions vying for control of the irradiated ruins of the Commonwealth and while one of them may feel relatively useless, a new mod makes them significantly more effective at taking control. Waking up as the Sole Survivor of Vault 111 feels especially intimidating when the entire world has gone to ruin but one group of fighters, The Minutemen, is simply looking to make a difference and help their fellow Americans. Unfortunately, their aspirations are slightly out of their reach given that the player needs to accomplish everything for them.

Making friends with the citizens of Pelican Town is one of the core pillars of but for those players who don't want to spend all that time researching who likes and dislikes what, an excellent new cheat sheet makes the process much simpler. While many guides have been created to help illustrate exactly what presents farmers should dish out to the villagers of the game, it can be especially painful navigating through them all at a moment's notice. Having essential information distilled down to a single page makes the process much easier and more straightforward.

, one of the longest-running open-world survival games on Steam, is finally launching into 1.0 after over a decade of early access development. While the game's community has fluctuated over the years, the zombie-themed game has retained a healthy playerbase since it first debuted in 2013 thanks to a relatively steady stream of updates and patches by developer The Fun Pimps. Despite the fact that the game's lengthy early access period has turned into somewhat of a meme, the studio is moving ahead with an official launch and its pulling out all the stops.

While the Boost Packs in are no doubt a fun way to expand upon players' traversal skills, one fan took it upon themselves to create an even better version of the feature. Players are able to hone their skills with 's Boost Packs as they level up and add points to the skill but even at its highest level, the oxygen-guzzling equipment only allows users to fly up, making horizontal movement especially difficult and imprecise. Fortunately, those wanting to soar through the air like a bounty hunter are in luck thanks to a new mod.

While the franchise may be a dormant entity, a group of extremely talented fans unveiled a trailer for a hypothetical third game in the franchise that looks incredible. Rare's iconic «collect-a-thon» platformer series starring the bear Banjo and his sidekick Kazooie is known as one of the best games available for the Nintendo 64 due to its creative world, robust suite of movement options, and boundless content. Given the fact that it's been nearly 20 years since the last mainline game, fans are still returning to the world with some imaginative, exquisitely designed concept trailers.

While is littered with planets for players to explore, one unlucky fan may have just figured out why one common aspect of most natural landscapes is a strangely rare sight. One of the most agreed-upon criticisms of the sci-fi RPG is that while Bethesda tempted the community with thousands of worlds to discover, most of them are barren with nothing especially interesting to find. There are some rare exceptions, but many users were shocked to discover that most of the explorable planets are seemingly wastelands devoid of any bodies of water.

is already filled with ways to spend some quality time with Pelican Town's residents but an updated version of a beloved mod now ensures that the spark of love isn't lost after marriage in the latest 1.6 Update. One of the more common complaints regarding the romantic system in ConcernedApe's farming RPG is that once players settle down with a spouse, their selected character loses a great deal of their personality, becoming almost a mindless robot that just hands around the property. While the latest patch fixes that, this revamped mod makes it even better.

While the franchise may be known for blitzing through demon-infested halls as fast as possible while also gunning down hordes of monsters, one dedicated speedrunner managed to do it faster than anyone else, shattering a long-standing world record. Given the games' emphasis on speed, it's no wonder why id Software's seminal first-person shooters are so popular amongst the speedrunning community. It's a game that's incredibly accessible to learn but infinitely difficult to master, so much so that many believe some of the older records are impossible to beat but every once in a while, someone proves the naysayers wrong.

is already known for pushing out a substantial amount of updates since its launch in February 2024, but developer Arrowhead Studios clarified why it can't push out even more with an excellent explanation. Ever since Super Earth's war against the Terminids and Automatons exploded in popularity, the community has enjoyed a steady stream of patches that both add new content to the game and fix any bugs plaguing the experience. It'd be unreasonable to expect any more from Arrowhead but for those who do want extra updates, it'd be unfair to make such demands.

While Xbox Game Pass is set to gain a selection of fantastic Day-One releases in the back half of April, subscribers may want to act fast to play the six games leaving the service in the coming weeks. To offset the amount of titles the platform offers, Microsoft always removes a handful of games whenever it brings in a new selection for players to experience. While that might sound like a bad deal, it makes sense given the already massive catalog on offer and users can still pick up the departing games for a discount before they eventually leave.

The wait for more content may be coming to an end as creative director and Bethesda Game Studios boss Todd Howard clarifies what the community can expect going forward. Following the sci-fi RPGs admittedly rocky launch in late 2023, the developer has been slow to respond to player feedback, promising that several massive content patches were in the pipeline but never confirming when they were expected to launch. Following the most recent update's disappointing reception, players have been pushing Bethesda for more insight on 's future and the studio has finally provided an inkling.

While may have come to an end, that doesn't mean its cast of characters can't go on any further adventures. Following the announcement that Larian Studios won't be developing any DLC for its critically-revered RPG, the community was understandably disappointed that they wouldn't be able to spend any more time with the likes of Astarion and Shadowheart. Fortunately, due to the game being an official part of the universe, there will seemingly be more opportunities for the characters to return either in a sequel or a different medium entirely.

players disappointed by the lack of options afforded by the game's outer space sections are in luck becausea new mod aims to provide the community with more activities to accomplish while cruising around the cosmos in their ship. While the sci-fi RPG does have a handful of combat encounters that prompt users to engage in zero-gravity dogfights, they're all rather simple and repetitious, never offering much in the way of variety or depth. The player base has long requested more options for these encounters and one talented creator has responded to those demands with an excellent add-on.

Neil Newbon, the beloved actor being Astarion in makes his return to the world of albeit in a very different role. While Newbon has had a prolific career behind the microphone, his most popular character is undoubtedly the vampire rogue in Larian Studios' RPG for which he even earned the coveted Best Performance award at The Game Awards 2023. While he may not be returning to play Astarion in the near future, he's still doing some rather exciting with Wizards of the Coast on its ever-popular fantasy game series.

players hoping to take prisoners out into space or hold their captured bounties captive are in luck because a new mod takes the brig an actual ship component that serves a purpose. Ever since Bethesda launched its sci-fi RPG, the community has been drawn to the comprehensive ship-builder system which allows users to create some genuinely impressive space crafts. Yet while the ability to build a star-worthy vehicle is exciting, many have expressed confusion as to why certain components that should be functional simply act as decoration.

is about to become even more difficult as the game's latest mission type forces players to go up against some of the Automaton's most powerful units. While the kinds of enemies players will encounter in are largely determined by the difficulty of the mission they embark upon, users who want to farm some of the rare resources will need to run through some of the more brutal settings to upgrade their ship modules. Unfortunately, that now means going head-to-head against Factory Striders with the primary goal being to bring down the walking tanks.

Xbox Game Pass is already loaded with unique games but possibly the most visually striking is now available and users should definitely have it on their radar. As a means of keeping the Xbox player base satisfied with a constant string of new releases, in lieu of many stellar exclusive titles, Microsoft makes it a point of constantly adding inventing indie games to the ever-growing catalog of downloadable experiences. Some of these are, obviously, better than others but most of the time, they serve as a reminder of why AAA games can become tired.

may offer players an assortment of abilities and tools to destroy their enemies but a Rogue skill is easily one of the best in the game and one dedicated fan just made it even stronger. Unlocked as early as Level 1, the Sneak Attack skill allows sneaker characters to deal an additional 1d6 damage to a foe they have Advantage against or when an ally is within 5ft of their target. It's remarkably simple to set up and while it's already an extremely potent way to dish out pain, a new mod has made it even better.

Johnny Silverhand is one of the most popular characters in so players wishing they could hang out more with Keanu Reeves' rockstar are in luck because a new mod makes him far more social. In the vanilla version of CD Projekt Red's RPG, the projection of Johnny's consciousness, which is embedded in protagonist V's head, appears throughout the story to both offer advice to players and just offer his thoughts on the current state of Night City. Unfortunately, those wanting to relax with Silverhand can only do so in V's original apartment, even if they own other properties.

is already a massive game but one dedicated dataminer learned that FromSoftware's RPG was originally intended to be even more gigantic. As players explore the massive world of The Lands Between, they'll uncover a couple of notable underground areas that not only serve as a fresh change of pace from the fields of Limgrave but also pose a significant challenge thanks to their more claustrophobic environments. As it turns out, the developers originally intended for there to be even more of these locales as well as a unique mechanic that would have altered the world completely.

is already a massive game but fans who want to take the experience even further by expanding on the game's story and factions are in luck because a new mod is aiming to do just that. Over the course of The Courier's adventure across the Mojave Wasteland, they'll encounter all kinds of colorful NPCs, many of whom belong to some sketchy groups vying for control of the post-apocalyptic United States. One of the more barbaric is Ceaser's Legion, and while they may come across as pure villains in the base game, Nova Arizona wants to improve them.

While there may be many opportunities to find love in the cosmos of , one player has taken it to the next level by making romance an extremely efficient way of boosting one's abilities. While Bethesda's latest RPG is littered with NPCs to discover, there aren't too many that are willing to throw caution to the wind and date the protagonist, given their dangerous lifestyle. Fortunately, there are a few that are daring enough to partner up and while there are some fun story moments that come from these interactions, they feel fairly limited in their scope.

may be a game about shooting Bugs and Bots with an assortment of deadly firearms but players hoping to charge into the fray with nothing but a melee weapon shouldn't give up hope just yet. Ever since the incredibly popular sequel in early 2024, the community has begged Arrowhead Studios to include some kind of sword as an unlockable weapon and since the studio hasn't done so yet, the demands have just grown louder. Fortunately, those diehard saber enthusiasts will be pleased to know that the developers are still looking into the idea.

players who want to make their battles a little more dramatic can now do so thanks to a mod that adds in a highly-customizable killcam that spotlights enemies with a cinematic flair. Bucking the trend set by previous Bethesda games like and, the sci-RPG frustrated many players by excluding any kind of killcam, a small but stylish feature that the community has come to expect from the developer's titles. A fun way of wrapping up a challenging combat encounter, the killcam is a popular mechanic amongst enthusiasts.

fans are in for a treat as a team of talented creators manages to bring one of the game's most haunting characters to life with a shockingly effective animatronic. Introduced in the most chapter of, DogDay has become somewhat of a fan-favorite character given the horrific circumstances of his existence following the events of The Hour of Joy. His iconic design has earned plenty of praise from the community, with many remarking that he would fit right in with the colorful cast of fellow horror franchise.

As PlayStation 5 owners get ready to set sail on the high seas, the former Xbox exclusive is struggling to support the number of players eager to dip into a life of piracy. Following the shocking announcement that Microsoft was bringing over a handful of games to Sony's console, PS5 players expressed great excitement at being able to play a few games that were previously inaccessible to them. While Xbox fans may have felt hung out to dry by the non-exclusivity pivot, it seems that Sony's community is more than capable of sustaining Rare's live-service game.

Ubisoft's upcoming game is making a major change to one of the publisher's most established tropes and players couldn't be relieved. Ever since the release of back in 2007, the concept of climbing towers and scanning the environment to reveal more areas has been a cliche in many open-world games to such an extent that it's become somewhat of a meme amongst players. Fortunately, the highly-anticipated game set in a galaxy far, far away is taking a different route and ditching the idea completely.

Two months after its release, players can finally 100% complete the massive RPG as the game's latest patch fixes a lingering glitch. While the latest entry in the Remake Trilogy may have impressed players with a relatively smooth launch, one bug that managed to irk many Platinum Hunters locked off a certain sidequest, preventing enthusiasts from properly finishing the game. Fortunately, Square Enix has been hard at work fixing the error, meaning players desperate to collect their final trophy can now do so with ease.

Upon its release, drew plenty of comparisons to Bethesda Game Studios' other major RPGs and and now one fan has shared a detailed infographic to spotlight a major contrast between the projects: Quests. It's no secret that Bethesda goes out of its way to stuff its games full of quests for players to accept with the promise of new equipment or impacting the world in some way. One of the biggest complaints about is the quality of its quest design, an issue that's easier to see thanks to a comprehensive guide.

The community is in flames as an announcement from developer Gameloft regarding the game's monetization has prompted players to begin refunding any and all purchases. Released in 2023, the free-to-play race may not be a mainstream hit like its closest competitor but solid reviews and decent post-launch support have helped it establish a solid community of players who enjoy its take on kart-racing and Disney characters. Unfortunately, Gameloft has seemingly burnt many bridges after announcing that all future premium Golden Pass tracks will be locked behind real money.

may undergo another massive change in its metagame as the arrival of several new ship upgrades could alter the way everyone plays. Yet another example of developer Arrowhead Studios quietly dropping in additional content without notifying the community, the latest batch of Super Destroyer improvements is likely to help Helldivers push back against the invading Automaton fleet that's looking for revenge. The massive rush of Bots in the North-West sector has players scrambling to form some kind of defense to prevent the unrelenting enemy from advancing any closer to Super Earth.

players looking to show off their love for the belovedseries can now do so with some exceptionally well-crafted items pulled directly from the show. Given that both are inspired by and make use of the rules of, it makes sense that some creative fans would find a way to unite Matt Mercer's ever-popular campaign with Larian Studios' RPG. While plenty of mods already exist that incorporate characters and locations from, this creation is more subtle and, arguably, much more fun.

may have just received one of its biggest content drops in the form of the 1.6 Update but the fun isn't ending there as ConcernedApe announces that another patch is on the way. Having launched in 2016, has proven to be a resounding success for its creator in no small part due to his work in maintaining the game with extensive post-launch support. The dedication and love ConcernedApe has shown to the farming RPG and its massive community has prompted many to question whether he ever takes any time off.

finally unveiled players' first look at the long-awaited Arena mode that will allow Trainers to battle it out by sending their team of Pals into the fray. While the game mode had already been announced in Pocket Pair's roadmap for the open-world survival game, the studio parted the curtain on how it'll function, spotlighting a system that, as can be expected, looks very similar to. Given that combat already plays a major role in 's core gameplay loop, the decision to add in an Arena mode simply feels like an extension of the already-existing mechanics.

players struggling to optimize their resources and recipes need to check out this comprehensive guide meticulously put together by a talented fan. It may not be an essential part of the sci-fi RPG, but those who do take the time to learn how outposts can work to their benefit are sure to find a significantly easier experience since they're a fantastic way to generate a passive income. While the game may not do a fantastic job of explaining how the system works, Starborn now have access to an excellent cheat sheet.

players disappointed by the inability to play as a «mean» character shouldn't miss out on some key interactions as one fan points out the best way to be a real bully. While Portkey Games' expansive open-world RPG does provide an authentic recreation of the ever-popular Wizard World, it's debatable how successful it is when it comes to role-playing.
