Shadow of Mordor’s Nemesis system signals the true beginning of this generation

MAKE YOUR CHOICE It’s bad enough dying a humiliating death at the hands of some random orc, but “Azdush the Dung Collector?” Really? He couldn’t have been “Azdush the Shield Breaker” or “Azdush the Invincible?” I could have taken a bit of consolation dying to someone with a straight-up badass name like that. ButThe Dung Collector? I knew I’d never live it down, and his constanttauntingcertainly made sure of that....

Armed with all the free Boosters available, I found myself unlocking new worlds much faster, so I recommend the same to you!...

I hope it stays interesting that whole time The jury is still out onSonic Frontiers, as an array of takes are swirling from folks who have played it. For now, we can look at some facts. TheSonic Frontierslength is looking like “20-30 hours” according to director Morio Kishimoto (who spoke to IGN). Naturally, that length is variable. Kishimoto also claims that it’ll take “double” that length to clear everything and go for 100%, and a “character progression” system (which involves a skill tree and leveling) is supposed to keep people playing through that journey....

STALKER 2 dev shares important A-Life, mod-kit details

I might’ve been a tad too pessimistic in my belief thatSTALKER 2: Heart of Chornobylmight have problems maintaining a modding scene. Notably, a recent interview has revealed that GSC has changed up Unreal Engine 5 significantly to supportSTALKER 2, and A-Life is a part of it.
