Reddit News, Tips, Tricks & Ideas

As the Helldivers 2 community continues its quest to smash bots, squish bugs, and spread Managed Democracy with our shiny new mechs in tow, it's been noted that some of the supposedly helpful Stratagems can actually be far more hassle than they're worth. In fact, some are convinced that certain Stratagems might not even be on our side.

Dragon's Dogma 2 publisher Capcom released the role-playing game's character creator two weeks before the full game launches and players are using it to recreate characters from the likes of Dune, Cyberpunk 2077, Game of Thrones, Elden Ring, God of War, and more.

The Dragon's Dogma 2 size has been revealed on Xbox Series X as the game's pre-load on Microsoft's console has gone live.

GTA 6 fans are raising eyebrows amid concerns about the potential involvement of Sweet Baby Inc, a narrative development and consultation studio, in shaping the upcoming game's storyline. The firm, known for its commitment to diversifying and enriching the video game industry, has faced criticism for creating what some gamers label as "woke" games.

Helldivers 2 doesn't have any melee weapons yet, but that hasn't stopped one democracy-spreader who's committed to punching every bug they come across.

A series constant, Final Fantasy's Moogle is a familiar sight to many, and along with the Chocobo, serves as a mascot of sorts for the franchise. But the busted-looking Moogle we got in the recently released Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has been rejected by a particular segment of the community, who are convinced the gritty redesign looks more like Matthew McConaughey playing a drug mule named Miguel than a fantastical portmanteau of mole and bat.

Rockstar Games has once again surprised its fan base, and this time, it's not within the virtual confines of the Wild West. While the anticipation for GTA 6 and the rumoured Red Dead Redemption 3 continues, fans were caught off guard by the unexpected return of Red Dead Redemption 2's protagonist, Arthur Morgan.

Helldivers 2 players worked hard to unlock mechs, liberating the planet of Tien Kwan. They were clearly very eager, as they accomplished the task much faster than the devs anticipated. Now, players can call down the Exo-45 Patriot Exosuit into battle, although they aren't finding them as powerful as expected.

Capcom released the incredibly intricate character creator for Dragon's Dogma 2 early and, naturally, players are already creating some wonderful and horrific things.

Helldivers 2 players are trying to figure out which aspects of the game have been buffed after developer Arrowhead Game Studios revealed that buffs were omitted from the patch notes.

A Dune fan has spotted a fascinating detail about the posters for both movies – and it's something that spoils a major part of the plot. Naturally, that means we'll be getting into spoilers below, so look away now if you're not up to speed on Dune: Part Two. 

Scarlet & Violet weren't the most celebrated Pokemon games ever due to their performance issues. However, they will live long in the memory of Pokemon fans for a few reasons. The first truly open-word Pokemon games, the introduction of more than 100 new Pokemon, and my favorite feature, Legendary Pokemon you can use to ride and fly around Paldea, Koraidon and Miraidon.

In the words of that one recurring Pokemon NPC, technology is incredible, but just in case you needed any convincing, this real-life recreation of Pokemon Violet's legendary mascot Miraidon as some sort of fancy prototype motorcycle might do the trick.

Today's Helldivers 2 update was huge, and it's a particularly exciting day for anyone who likes their Chargers extra crispy. Amongst the list of balance changes, the FLAM-40 Flamethrower has been given a significant buff, which has already proven to be highly effective against the shooter's foes. 

Shocking absolutely no one, Helldivers 2's game director has confirmed that developer Arrowhead Game Studios is not being acquired by Sony.

It's a new week, which means Elden Ring fans have discovered something about a game that is over two years old at this point. Elden Ring really is the gift that keeps on giving, as while we always think everything to learn about the game has already been well-documented, the director turns around and says there's "something small" still undiscovered, or a player does something absolutely nobody thought to do which yields interesting results.

Helldivers 2 can be a tricky game at the best of times, with soldiers constantly fighting back against hordes of Automatons and Terminids bigger than buses. There are some enemies out there that strike fear into the hearts of Helldivers more than others though, and you'll struggle to find a more hated enemy than the Charger.

According to a notorious Rocket League leaker on Twitter, SamLeakss, Rocket League fans can expect a crossover with ATLA (Avatar The Last Airbender) soon. This Rocket League x ATLA crossover has divided the player base. Some gamers are excited to see ATLA, an older franchise, receive a breath of fresh air. However, other players think Rocket League are relying too much on collaborations to stay relevant.

While it’s more commonly accepted now than it once was, the idea of the ‘Pay to Win’ (P2W) game remains controversial even in 2024. Playbest Limited is mounting a full-on assault on the concept with Twinworld Survivor, its upcoming Android title described as an “Anti-P2W game.”

Hollow Knight Silksong's community is reacting as normally as you'd expect at a supposed brand new Steam update, but the whole thing isn't as simple as it seems.

Helldivers 2 players are attempting to get others thinking more tactically about the ongoing Galactic War, in the face of the Automaton threat.

It’s finally happened. After six years, multiple seasons, and a spin-off, Rick and Michonne have reunited in The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live.

Helldivers 2 was compared to Starship Troopers when it was first released, but since then, the squad-based third-person shooter has become closer to the post-Judgment Day future in Terminator. While the first mission order, to retake territory from bugs called Terminids, was a success, things went downhill once the game introduced the Automatons, the much harder-to-kill robots that attack Super Earth planets.

Trading in depends heavily on Emeralds, but unfortunately, they’re hard to obtain in large quantities. However, by using world seeds to generate their custom worlds, players can ensure they have quick and easy access to this rare mineral. Emeralds can be obtained from many different sources, and you’ll need to use them all to start trading with Villagers and Wandering Traders.

Elden Ring, like all of FromSoftware's famously challenging action RPGs, has been trivialized in about a million different ways. Two Malenias at once, no-hit randomizer runs, literal mind games – the list goes on. Arguably the most popular way to absolutely flex on the denizens of the Lands Between is clearing the whole game without leveling up a single time, with Elden Ring now a major part of the OneBros Reddit community where unleveled FromSoft diehards gather. 

Great news: you can bonk in Dragon's Dogma 2. That's at least according to the ESRB age rating of the game, which says that Dragon's Dogma 2 is suited for players aged 17 and up.

The Starfield Shattered Space DLC could be revealed soon, judging from some recent activity on the Steam backend.

It’s time to head over to our favourite place – the complex, weird, and magical world of Reddit. This time, we’re gonna survey the chatbox landscape and attempt to uncover what Reddit thinks are the best games of all time. Remember, these entries are not based on one definitive Reddit list but collate various popular lists and users’ responses to these lists and see what pattern emerges. 

Helldivers, we have yet another problem. Despite their best efforts, some Helldivers 2 recruits – and I'm not just talking about new cadets, who get the benefit of the doubt – are really struggling with the escort missions currently dominating the Automaton warfront. I get it, they're hard. Arguably too hard on occasion, the occasion being, almost every single one on any remotely high difficulty. But the bugs and bots ain't going anywhere and neither are escort missions, so we're gonna have to get through this together. Luckily, the community's been hard at work sharing helpful tips for escorting civilians while keeping their insides inside at least 25% of the time. 

With the long awaited 1.6 update to Stardew Valley finally coming on March 19, fans have taken the opportunity to speculate about what’s to come, including what a little raccoon on the official image could mean. 

The team behind Helldivers 2, presumably fully aware that Steam Deck and PC players would go digging into the game's files, have left a funny little detail in there.

Star Wars fans are debating the best lightsaber duels in the saga – and the prequel trilogy is getting a lot of love.

FromSoftware director Hidetaka Miyazaki would love to make more games that are as big as Elden Ring, which is sure to be music to the ears of many fans.  

When the end of the world comes (and it will), I like to imagine that in the midst of all the rubble and chaos, people will still be playing Skyrim. There doesn’t seem to be any way that people won’t tinker with the game and in this instance, we get to see dead technology being revived in order to play TES5.

A Helldivers 2 player has drawn the ire of the community for friendly fire, but they're reportedly claiming to be innocent of slaying their squadmates.

One Baldur’s Gate 3 fan created the entire journey on one large map, which sounds impossible at first. But once you see it, you’ll be surprised just how compact these maps can look. After many weeks of hard work, this fan’s art has gone viral on Reddit.

Season of Discovery players have reported on Reddit that the new rewards have been added to the Waylaid Supply Faction vendors. Blizzard previously announced that these changes would be going live soon, and today seems to be that day.

Helldivers, we have a problem. Undemocratic bug fodder has infested the ranks of Helldivers 2, and the toxic behavior of these players is putting a damper on what should be a glorious campaign for Super Earth. 

Two years ago, EA announced Project Rene, AKA The Sims 5. So far, we know that it's "free to download" and, as per leaks, that the base game will have apartments. There's also the return of The Sims 3's colour wheel and a new multiplayer mode for collaboration with friends.

A Diablo 4 player obtained a bow that had a one in 175,616 chance of dropping, and declared that it's "still crap."

Forget the bugs and bots, Helldivers 2 players have a new enemy: Farmers.

Helldivers 2 is only a few weeks old and already players are kicking their teammates before games even get going because they’re not bringing so-called "meta" builds to the party.

One highly skilled artist has recently taken to social media to share his Pokemon fusion art of Skarmory and Duskull. This was his second known attempt at combining the two Pokemon to date, with both being high-effort, memorable, and creepy in their own way.

Artificial intelligence will become an important part of Reddit Inc.'s business, the company said Thursday in its long-awaited filing for an initial public offering — tapping into a revenue stream that could be both lucrative and controversial.

Reddit has become a go-to place for a lot of people who are looking for answers to something they find confusing. Sure, people can just go to Google and do the same, but the results sometimes vary.

In the U.S., Google's main app to manage finances and pay contactless is Google Pay and not Google Wallet. It always struck me as an odd choice because the rest of the world is using Google Wallet, but not the people in the U.S. Well, that is going to change soon as the company has announced the transition.

It’s a sad day in MOBA land as Paragon: The Overprime is being shut down…again. It would seem that a new developer and a slight name change weren’t enough to save the third-person MOBA from a second death.

We may or may not have just gotten confirmation that Borderlands 4 is on its way.

Helldivers 2 has received a patch which should help the game better deal with its server capacity issues.

The developer of literal cult roguelike Cult of the Lamb says that it would "love" to add multiplayer, but it's not a key focus right now.

Baldur's Gate 3 released Patch 6 a few days ago, dubbed the "kissing update" (that infamously missed Valentine's Day). But it didn't just add new smooching animations, it also added a bunch of new bugs.

One Marvel fan may have cracked a key part of Deadpool 3, based on a brief moment in the movie's trailer.

Helldivers 2 players are keeping their game open to avoid long queue times, but Arrowhead Game Studios could be adding an AFK timer.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is only an agonizingly short 10 days away, and we're getting to the point where we'll soon need to lock down our social media accounts for fear of spoilers. Key story details have reportedly already started making their way to TikTok, Twitter, and Reddit over the past week, seemingly because some people have already managed to get their hands on a physical copy of the game.

Just when you thought you know everything about this game, you’re proven wrong. One Baldur’s Gate 3 player realized that you can poison a keg in the Underdark, and then posted about it on Reddit.

A recent SteamDB listing seems to indicate that Dragon’s Dogma 2, the much-anticipated sequel to the best “recent” IP in Capcom’s catalog, might be getting a demo soon.

Augmented reality monster-catching game Pokémon Gois known for taking its players to strange new places, but one trainer found themselves in an especially bizarre situation.

When it comes to live service games such as Last Epoch, there are times when gameplay needs to be organized around maintenance and server downtime. With the game releasing fully on February 21, of course, there’s going to be maintenance, so here’s everything you need to know. 

Skyrim has received two updates in the past few months, and players hate it. Whenever Bethesda releases makes changes to the game like this, mods have to be updated. And when many players have a ridiculously long list of mods installed, waiting for all of them to be made compatible can take a while - if they're updated at all.

When it comes to the roster of Tekken 8, you'll struggle to find a character that stands out as much as Yoshimitsu does, and that's taking into account the bear and the panda. It probably has something to do with him being a space ninja, equipped with a distinctive set of armor that makes him look like he's been plucked straight out of a game like Elden Ring.

It’s always nice to have a way of discussing a game with its developers, and Last Epoch has provided a plethora of ways for fans to do just that. From Twitch Q&As to a thriving Discord, Eleventh Hour is always happy to talk to players, accept feedback and answer questions.

Palworld players can seem a little obsessed with the idea of breeding the perfect Pals; hundreds of cakes resulting in hundreds of Eggs to pass down the perfect Passive Traits for a chosen purpose. For the most part, these desired Passive Traits are ones that boost mount speed. 

One incredibly unfortunate Sea of Thieves player has shared their tragic encounter with the open-world adventure game's rarest item.

People who read my articles have exceptionally good taste, which is why I will assume you are already intimately familiar with Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. For those who are not and somehow got here by mistake, it will save me a lot of time if you go away and read them all. Oh fine, I will explain Hex. And also, if I have time, a real life man with ants in his computer.

The voice actor behind Adam Jensen in Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided claims Eidos asked him to stop talking about the character publicly several years ago.

February 14 arrives every year in a shower of roses, chocolates, and stacks of overpriced cards, but this year Palworld players have turned to the DIY approach in order to incorporate game-based puns into the yearly celebration of love. 

It seems that whenever something becomes popular, AliExpress isn’t far behind and knock-off merchandise can be ordered across the globe. Palworld, it seems, is no exception to this law of the internet and this has frankly terrifying consequences.

Palworld is a pretty fantastic game, all things considered, but it's definitely not the most polished one. That's mostly because the game is still in early access, and developer Pocket Pair is using the period to iron out game-breaking bugs, such as Lifmunk Effigies reducing your capture rate, before its full release later down the line.

Helldivers 2 has already become a huge success, with tons of soldiers ready to spread democracy across Super Earth. With such a heavy emphasis on co-op play, matchmaking issues are far worse than any bug or robot you could encounter. As is all too common these days, Helldivers 2 players have been experiencing some issues where matchmaking is failing to join lobbies. While we wait as developer Arrowhead works diligently on correcting the issue officially, there may be some tactics you can try to get yourself back into the action.

Presumably not ready to leave Attack on Titan behind after its anime finale, one Palworld player has recreated the series' iconic central city on a massive scale, purportedly without the use of any mods to make things easier.

Well, fellow Palworld pals, we had a good run, but it looks like the end is near: An absolute mad lad has bred 1,856 Relaxaurus in a bid to "destroy Palworld."
