After a bit of a bumpy landing on PC, it looks like No Rest for the Wicked is finally finding its feet. The early access action-RPG launched with notable performance problems that developers Moon Studios promised they’d address, starting with several hotfixes over the last few weeks that managed to claw back some frames. The game’s first big patch goes a step further, seemingly boosting the game’s performance to a degree that its minimum and recommended hardware specs have been lowered as a result.
Family Guy Was Almost Cancelled By The Family Of One of Its Stars

While Family Guy fans are used to worrying over the show’s renewal over its long television run, a recent interview reveals the curious circumstances behind at least one of these attempts to get the show off the air for good.
Family Guyis a household name, and has garnered this notoriety for a whole litany of reasons, ranging from enjoyable television to controversial content over a broadcast lifespan of 25 years and counting.Fronted by talented vocal talent and voice actor Seth McFarlane, the show is a longrunning favorite with a lot of longstanding traditions, one of which Family Guy only broke recently after 19 years at the beginning of a new season. The show has always walked a razor’s edge by way of its edgy content and has come close to the brink of destruction on more than one occasion, making every season potentially its last from a fan perspective.
While Family Guy got a 2-season renewal alongside other shows at the start of 2023, the series still has a lot of detractors, including two very surprising longtime haters. In an interview with People, Family Guy star Patrick Warburton, who provides the voice of prominent supporting character Joe Swanson, revealed that his parents not only dislike his involvement with the show as a whole but also that his mother has gone so far as to take part in efforts to get the show banned, despite Warburton providing financial support for the family via his role on the show. This animosity towards the show isn’t new but has grown in recent times, with Warburton admitting that his parents "-hate the show even more today than they did twenty-five years ago." His mother seems to have taken a special interest in getting the show off the air as a member of the American Television Council, even trying to get Warburton himself on board.
She tried to get me to sign the petition [to cancel the show]. I said, 'Mom, if you don't think I'm going to talk about this publicly, this is the greatest irony. You're laundering money; you're laundering it to yourself.' They hate it more today.
While it’s hilarious to think that there’s a star on the show with parents who actively want it to fail, it’s worth admitting that Family Guy has often given fans and casual viewers some of the most divisive episodes of any beloved TV show in addition to occasionally missing the mark and producing universally controversial episodes as well. For their part, Warburton’s parents have never been the sort to abide by such programming, with the star himself saying of his mother, "[She] went around the neighborhood when I was 13 years old, passing out pamphlets on the sins of masturbation," while nothing, "[this] did not get me into the cool crowd." As for his father, Warburton shared, «My father

Huawei’s Pura 70 Ultra Teardown Reveals The Kirin 9010 Is Mass Produced On SMIC’s 7nm Process, The Same One Used For The Mate 60’s Kirin 9000S
The Pura 70 flagship series officially launched by Huawei also sports the company’s new Kirin 9010, a 12-core SoC that delivers a slew of improvements over its predecessor, the Kirin 9000S from last year.

We’re living in a golden age of Star Wars board games. Here are the best ones
Always in motion is the future of the Star Wars universe… at least when it comes to movies and television, where well more than half of the projects currently in development still have no publicly available release date. The world of Star Wars tabletop games, on the other hand, is a bit more predictable. Both this year and last, it seems like new releases have been coming down the Pyke just about every few months. Taken together with some excellent older titles still in print, it’s clear to me that we’re living in a golden age of Star Wars board games — especially if you roll in card games, TTRPGs, and miniatures games as well. Here are the very best ones.

The Fall Guy was its stunt team’s explosive dream come true
Simultaneously a stunt-filled action comedy and a return to big-budget romantic comedies, led by two irrepressibly charming actors (Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt), this week’s The Fall Guyis the kind of date-movie summer blockbuster that felt a lot more common just a decade or two ago. The movie follows a stunt man (Gosling) who’s coaxed out of retirement to work on the directorial debut of his ex-girlfriend (Blunt), then gets pulled into a conspiracy that threatens to shut the movie down.

Game of Thrones reportedly has an MMO in the works, nearly a decade after the last one was cancelled
It’s been five years since Game of Thrones ended and a good while since we had a decent video game based on George RR Martin’s fantasy writings that aren’t Elden Ring lore. Yet it seems that Game of Thrones’ cultural cachet still has enough draw to inspire new games of its own. And not just an arguably underrated-if-also-not-particularly-great action-adventure RPG or fairly okay Telltale adventure game, either, but a whole honest-to-goodness Game of Thrones MMO currently in development, according to new rumours.
