Starfield's Pickpocketing Will Make Things Way More Intense by Playing Out in Real-Time

The Anno series has never had official mod support, but that hasn't stopped its community from producing hundreds of mods for Anno 1800 since its release in 2019. Ubisoft have seemingly noticed. They're now partnering with mod.io to add official mod support to the game.

Starfield is almost here, which means that a new Bethesda RPG game may finally overtake the likes of Skyrim from The Elder Scrolls series or even Fallout.

With Alan Wake 2, Remedy Entertainment is developing its first ever full-fledged survival horror game, and in an era where the genre and the studio both are flourishing perhaps more than they ever had, that’s an exciting prospect. Of course, given the massive critical and commercial success that the Resident Evil series has enjoyed, and how much Capcom’s franchise has been responsible for the genre’s revival, comparisons are inevitable for any new survival horror title- and that stands true for Alan Wake 2 as well.

Have you ever tried posting that memorable group picture from your college days, office party, or a family event to Instagram Stories? The first reaction of many is instant regret when they realize they will have to manually tag each of the 10-12 people in the picture. The problem only worsens when there are multiple group pictures to be uploaded. But now, Instagram may soon bring a new feature where you can tag your entire group with a single mention. This feature is still in the testing phase, but once it does roll out, it can be a massive time-saver.

As the Dark and Dark early access launch continues, Ironmace has confirmed already that the RPG game will feature microtransactions, and that it is deploying a range of fixes to help with stuttering issues.

If you’ve spent a while building and refining your Dark and Darker character, they might not be around forever.

Alan Wake 2's developers took inspiration from Capcom's Resident Evil series as it wanted players to feel "more vulnerable" while playing the sequel.

Remnant 2 players have it good, huh? A patch dropped earlier this week, fixing several issues its players were having with the game's economy, providing «more scrap overall» and nipping several other post-apocalyptic pain points in the bud.

As the video game community knows very well, there are times when video game developers and publishers set unrealistic expectations for their titles. They’ll set basic expectations about what they “need to sell,” which is usually fair. But then, some teams have “high expectations,” and when the game doesn’t reach them, they’ll say it “underperformed” even though it really didn’t. For the team at Larian Studios, they spent years with Baldur’s Gate 3 in Steam Early Access and had players helping them figure out what to fix and how to make the game better for when it finally launched.
