Speaking of Red Flags in gaming, Starfield is 9 months away and the latest updates for the game are just concept are.We still have seen no gameplay, no information really about this game at all and it's out in like 200 days. Where are the trailers? Are they using the same engine from Fallout 76? If not why are they not showing it off? If they are then there is a good reason why this game is still in fucking hidding.

It'll have spaceships! You can visit any planet in the universe and have unique quality content on each one! It'll be almost completely bug free upon lauch!

Don't worry, just trust Todd Howard. Everything will be a-okay! Hardcore!

Fuck off, Tencent!

You know what would have been fairer? An actual new Dead Space game. :(
Yesh i dont know why they wasted budget on this. The original dead space looks fine and they could have easily just done an HD remaster of all three games and released it as a collection instead.

I have the same thought about people wanting a bloodborne remake. The game isnt even 10 years old and it looks fine. There is no reason to remake it.

No reason to remake it? Money

Too many people keep buying 100 different editions of the same game. That's why you can run Skyrim on a toaster now

Look up a game called Negative Atmosphere. The game is not out yet, and still in development, but it's made from the remnants of Visceral Games. There's your spiritual sequel to Dead Space.

Xbox seems to be a vacuum of fucking nothing when it comes to gaming. They buy up all these names, and produce nothing because nobody sticks around. Wha the fuck is even happening at Microsoft Studios? How has the company overheads not looked at the gaming division and asked "what the fuck?"

They did, and slapped Game Pass on it. Microsoft has essentially turned their gaming division into a glorified rental service.

Hey, remember when Ubisoft said NFTs were gonna be the next big thing?
Well when you have anyone with a brain and a conscience willing to publicly proclaim that they’re bullshit it kinda helps. It also helps if they are a big name in the industry like Gaben.

Set in the late 1800s, so most of the characters form the novels will be there. The overall castle design looks like from the movies, which is really interesting. Because IIRC, the design of the school is different between the movies and the books.

The overall gameplay feels like Bully, only set in HP universe and not as mean. Riding Hippogriff or broomstick to travel around the world sounds amazing.

The music sounds great.. It's that hint of familiarity yet something new. Like, it can be mistaken for unreleased ost from the movies.

The combat looks alright I guess. I feel like everyone is jst standing there slamming spells at each other. There is a dodge roll, but that's all I see in terms of movement.

AND it's NOT a multiplayer? At least it doesn't mention any multiplayer elements. Thank god, because I would hate to see something like GTAO in this game, with mtx everywhere.

This is it: the final update to SFV. It's been a terrible to good run. Start of better next time Capcom. You can do it.

Nonono, don't you do this to us, Mizayaki. Not now, not like this. Don't you fucking dare!

If you've been running around the Lands Between, confident you've successfully whacked every potential illusory wall, I have bad news - it turns out that at least one secret opening requires you to strike it at least 50 times.

According to this outrageously patient player on Reddit (thanks, PC Gamer), there's seemingly an illusory wall in Volcano Manor that will only disappear once you've hit it 50 times.

"This video is the greatest and most heinous iteration of 'hidden path ahead'," wrote one player. "Now instead of hitting every wall once, I have to go hit every wall 50 times."

"You know we have to go back through the entire game and check every wall now, right," added another. The OP just calls the discovery "disturbing".

Interestingly, it's sparked discussion in the comments about whether this is a true illusory wall or is, in fact, a "normal" wall that the player was able to destroy through beating down its HP. As it doesn't lead anywhere particularly exciting - or secret - and it's near another fake wall and doesn't quite have the same audio cues, some think it's just a glitch.

Many of the NPCs in Elden Ring wear masks or hoods, but one dataminer has now uncovered their real faces.

Zullie the Witch, a well-known Souls YouTuber, has been able to unmask Elden Ring NPCs by uncovering their specific values in the character creator.

I know He said there are no mimic chest, but due to my anxiety from past games I find myself hitting chests all the time.

I'm surprised there aren't any ladder mimics or site of grace mimic yet
