The new trailers, which can be watched below, focus on Midas Felgreed and Nina Deforges. While the trailers don’t feature much gameplay, they show some slightly improved facial animations, which is a welcome improvement over past showing, considering how the character models themselves are far from being the best we have seen these past few years. Midas Felgreed – Midas Felgreed is one of the most brilliant semiomancers and engineers in all of the Aucerian Kingdom....

Now, Valve is aware of how controversial this new measure on Steam might be. However, they make the case that the reason behind this measure is to keep logos visible to players. According to them, some game logos have become so small that it’s hard for players to tell the game’s name. In other cases, graphical asset images are so cluttered with award logos and ratings that it is distracting and hard to read....

Reddit user Dacvak recently shared on the Steam Deck subreddit a new report which highlights how setting any framerate limitation with the new option introduces input latency. The game used for the test is Rogue Legacy 2. Dacvak also tested running a game on Steam Deck with a built-in framerate cap such as Rocket League. In this case, there was no additional input latency. As such, using built-in framerate caps seems the way to go as of now, even if it may lead to uneven frame pacing or screen tearing when internal fps and screen refresh rate do not sync....

According to numerous reports from players who got early access to Stranger of Paradise, even those with very capable PCs are struggling to achieve any sort of consistent performance, even when running the game on low-ish settings. Here’s a typical example from Twitter (many more can be found on the Stranger of Paradise subreddit). Running an i7 9700k, 32gb’s of RAM and a RTX 2080 SUPER 8gb. Minimum 1080p settings the game runs sub 60 FPS for me, burst attacks crash the fps entirely, and it 100%s CPU AND GPU....

Right from its official unveiling, it looked like Street Fighter 6 would address most of the criticism aimed at the previous entry. The goal is to create a fighting game that could be very enjoyable for casual players that primarily enjoy single-player content and competitive players aiming to climb the ladder and become the best. While we still do not know how good the single-player World Tour mode will be, we now have a good idea of how the game generally plays, thanks to the closed beta held between October 7th and October 10th....

Over 4.3 million joined the Closed Beta, with the Sniper class proving to be most popular, whereas the Shotgun Master was the least popular. The most commonly used weapons were assault rifles, though, such as the M416S, AKM, and MP5SD.

Director Seong Gon Park said: Wonder People will see the following improvements:...

Disgruntled Dogecoin (DOGE) investors have now come up with a seemingly easy fix to the tanking value of their investment portfolios by launching a high-profile lawsuit against Elon Musk, the self-proclaimed Dogefather, as well as Tesla and SpaceX. The lawsuit, aptly titled Johnson v Musk, seeks $258 billion in punitive damages from Musk and the companies he controls. Interestingly, these damages are roughly equal to Musk’s entire net worth. For the uninitiated, Dogecoin is merge-mined with Litecoin using AuxPoW or Auxiliary Proof-of-Work, where one blockchain trusts and accepts the work done on another blockchain....

Solana (SOL), a decentralized blockchain platform that promises a very fast transaction throughput, has seen its native SOL coin plunge over 28 percent in the past 7 days, as the sentiment around the nascent crypto project was hammered by ongoing malaise in the wider crypto sphere as well as internal network congestion leading to inevitable delays in transaction processing. While the market-wide panic that is currently ensconced in the crypto sphere is expected to continue to act as a dampener, we view the growing instances of network congestion on Solana as a bullish factor, provided that the underlying constraints are tackled effectively via timely updates....

Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) shares are tanking in early trading today as the prolific short-seller, Hindenburg Research, is now out with a hard-hitting report on Elon Musk’s takeover gambit. Hindenburg Research is perhaps best known for knocking down Nikola Motors from its lofty perch back in 2021. Given the research house’s respectable credentials, it is hardly surprising that Twitter shares are currently down nearly 4 percent in today’s regular trading session. Before going into the specifics of Hindenburg’s assertions, let’s go over the key financial conditions that currently underpin Musk’s Twitter takeover gambit....

In the 10-minute-long footage, the Korean game developer and publisher showed new locations and scenes while also revealing some fresh details about the game. To begin with, producer Ahn Jong-ok talked about the implication of a completely seamless world (dungeons included). The world, which has no boundaries, is the foundation that allows players to connect with one another. It allows for endless ways to interact. Take for example an underground dungeon, with a separate entrance and main area....

Buyers are certainly encouraged by the floundering stock price. While today Ubisoft shares are up 4.74% (likely on the heels of these rumors), the stock fell over 40% in the last year, leading to a market cap of €4.8 billion. Other potential suitors include Microsoft and Sony, even though the former is already busy enduring regulatory scrutiny on the massive acquisition deal for Activision Blizzard, while the latter is closing the deal to acquire Bungie....

Developed by Big Bad Wolf, the French team behind The Council, Swansong is a narrative RPG that sticks relatively close to the beloved tabletop’s fifth edition. Players will get to fill their character sheets, choosing how to distribute physical, social, and mental attributes, which in turn influence Skills like Rhetoric, Intimidation, Persuasion, and Psychology (Dialogue); Security and Technology (Exploration); Deduction and Education (Knowledge). That’s just the tip of the iceberg, anyway, as Disciplines are the real vampiric powers, and they will be unique to each playable character....
