Unlike Steam, the Epic Games Store has a hard-and-fast rule against adult content. Its content guidelines state very clearly that «products with Adults Only ratings cannot be distributed on the Epic Games Store.» But it recently updated those guidelines to allow AO-rated games on the store for one specific reason: If they were given that rating because they involve blockchain trading.
Big news, folks: Terraria has made its fish visible after 12 years
01.12.2023 - 17:03 / gamesradar.com
Playing Terraria usually means accepting the rules of its pixel world — killing bad guys makes you entitled to swollen bags of treasure, some fish live in honey, and, before you catch them, all fish are cryptically invisible. The 12-year-old action-adventure sandbox game has mostly held on tight to these basic rules, but this week things changed. This week, its developer Re-Logic announced one major change in a forum thread: Terraria will soon have visible fish as part of its 1.4.5 update, to be released in 2024.
“We are not sure how the fish in Terraria stayed invisible all this time,” Re-Logic developer Loki wrote in the thread, “but now you can see what you might be reeling in while fishing!” A brief, looping GIF demonstrates what this looks like in action.
In the rain, a player approaches a blue body of water. He drops in his fishing line and, as his lure dangles on the water’s surface, several fish start to congregate. Through the water, you can see their assorted silhouettes compete for the bait until one relatively tall one wins out. The player yanks his line, and the screen announces he’s caught some bass.
Previously, the fishing experience was more secretive than that. Players would plop their lines into totally opaque pools of water, honey, and lava, and they will continue to do so after the 1.4.5 update. But they’d experience exactly zero indicators of whether or not they had snared a fish or garbage, or, if they had caught a fish, what kind it was. While sonar potions (8-minute-long buffs that announced names of hooked fish) provided temporary reprieves from fishing obscurity, Re-Logic’s new decision to make all fish permanently visible should help players perform the mini-game more effectively.
Otherwise, Re-Logic also teased a CRT-style Terraria filter as part of its forthcoming update. As for the rest of 2023, the developer notes that “things will start to wind down for the year once we get into the second half of December, but we are planning to finish the year strong in order to give us a ton of momentum as we head into 2024.”

Insomniac Games Has Made Just $567 off Sunset Overdrive
Insomniac Games has enjoyed commercial success on a level it had never seen before with its Marvel’s Spider-Man games, but not all of its titles in the last decade or so have seen eye-watering sales. In fact, specifically where Sunset Overdrive is concerned, the money the studio has made off it is quite negligible, to say the least.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth on PS5, PS4 Has SEGA Bass Fishing, SpikeOut, and Much More | Push Square
SEGA’s excellent Yakuza series is well-known for its minigames, but Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth looks to seriously expand upon the expectations of fans with an unprecedented number of side-activities and distractions. Chief among them is the inclusion of some fairly famous Model 3 arcade games, including SEGA Bass Fishing, SpikeOut, and Virtua Fighter 3tb. These are brand new ports, and it’s the first time SpikeOut has been playable on console since an iffy Xbox spin-off almost 20 years ago.
