Noted!

Highguard devs schedule

Valve changed Steam Community Awards, made their price even and they no longer grant any scores for the receiving party.

Kinde meh, how do I farm my clowns now?

The new Avatar DLC is probably the best thing Ubisoft delivered in ages. They made it 3rd person, removed fillers, created a worthy story, and fixed gameplay features.

One year after the original game and they turned it into a very impressive journey, that people actually liked.

Now the team behind it is being cut days after the release and after The Division 10th anniversary.

You can do a rendezook now by the way!

Be careful: some kind of fake "Artstation Support" threatening people: "pay or your account will be deleted".

I'm feeling sad that some people don't understand that this is SCAM. You don't have to pay, they are not from Artstation. Report and move on.

Stay safe!

Hytale has been released
(As an early access)

Wait, it's real: 5070 Ti 16GB and 5060 Ti 16GB are discontinued and at best you can aim for 5070 12GB.

The limit will last at least for Q1 of 2026, but could continue as long as the memory shortage will last. But Asus is saying "these models will likely never return".

Remember how they failed to make real system requirements for James Bond game? Now they kinda managed to provide something coherent.

One week to fix a JPEG a little bit.

Comic Con tried to allow AI (non-commercial only with clear warnings), so artists reached out to the company, suggested they can go fk themselves a bit, so a day later Comic Con bans AI.

For good!

Monster Hunter Wilds severe FPS drops were traced to a faulty DLC ownership check that constantly runs and heavily burdens the CPU. Testing showed the game runs terribly (20–25 FPS) on accounts with no DLC but smoothly (80+ FPS) on accounts with many DLC items. Bypassing the check dramatically improves performance, indicating an unintentional optimization bug.

https://www.reddit.com/r/MonsterHunter/comments/1qcy3hn/mh_wilds_bad_performance_mystery_solved/ — Digital Foundry reached out to the user and are now investigating the issue as well. Capcom literally failed the worst possible way.

You have been Rockstared!
- Leave the game to rot for ages
- Still prevent modding
