Batora, the game I picked some time ago on sale, is the most "Californian writing" example ever (maybe the second place after Forspoken or the third one after the last Saints Row).

Why do they even do it? No one talks like that...

It's also a fairly competent isometric combat game with two different states to fight physical and mental enemies.

But only approximately 52% of people made it 10 minutes into the story to obtain both powers. That number must be at least 80% for a healthy game. And people apparently dropped it right away.

People found out that Steam Controller can occasionally do a Wilhelm scream when dropped.

I'm not even sure if it's true and meme by Valve or a meme by the community and Mandela effect.

The creators of Outbound tried to make a person to remove his negative review. Which as you may have guessed, led to the opposite results...

BestBuy сonfirmed that GTA VI preorders will be available from May 18 for just a few days. Ironically, up until May 21, when Take-Two will have to make a financial report.

I can't explain you this story since it feels like April Fools, but:

Ubisoft and Unsolved Hunts are making a separate "game" to support Black Flag Resynced. Participants can win by finding a $500K priced skull, hidden in the Caribbean. They have to complete a 10-hour-long prologue and solve 15 puzzles which will take... about five years.

You just need to buy a 35 (digital) or up to 200 Euro (physical premium box) pass to participate in the hunt. Different editions are packed with extra board games.

So, a $500K crystal skull which is not gonna be easily sellable and you may get it if you build a team to solve all puzzles in about five years. And in the meantime you have riddles and board games for up to 4 players?

There's apparently a whole market for such games but it looks like an overcomplicated lottery.

The most unhinged private message a solo developer can get...

Embark sold 16 million copies of Arc Raiders in half a year, but the steam is steamingly wearing out.

Only 2 million were sold from February and until now. There's simply not many people left to buy it further.

They are making Fortnite x Overwatch collab
