PCGamesN Thursday, May 19, 2022 8:24 PM  Building a V Rising castle is one of the most important aspects of this vampiric survival game. After you've chosen your V Rising server and started your journey from frail undead to vampire lord, you'll find yourself out in the gorgeous Farbane Woods with a task to begin making your first home. So while it's relatively obvious that you'll need to chop down trees and mine stone, you're also going to need to gather some V Rising blood essence to get your bloodsucker's abode up and running. However, building a V Rising castle is just the easy part. You must maintain your castle heart at all times in order to keep your boundaries and walls from decaying. A little drop of the red stuff goes a long way, but if you don't take good care of your castle heart, your home - and all your hard-earned plunder - will become vulnerable to invaders. So to ensure that your V Rising castle doesn't fall into a state of disrepair, we'll go through the basics of what resources you need to build your vampiric pad and how to stop your castle heart from decaying.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 19, 2022 8:21 PM  If you're just starting out in this vampire game then you've probably seen the option to fill your base with V Rising servants coffins when interacting with your castle heart. Unfortunately, you'll have to make a serious amount of progress through the main questline in order to craft them, and then get even further to fill your coffins with enthralled humans. The good news is that despite the process being a bit long-winded, it's definitely worth it as you can build an army of nine V Rising servants to head out into the world and plunder on your behalf. Better still, no two V Rising servants are likely to be the same, so even when you've got some mindless minions under your spell, there's plenty more work to be done if you want to make them into a formidable fighting force. To help you get started on your path to server domination, we've assembled everything you need to know about recruiting V Rising servants, as well as some information on the different types of servants and how to improve them.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 19, 2022 5:15 PM  Shockingly, Stellaris is now six entire normal Earth years old. The space exploration grand strategy game has changed a lot over its journey, and to celebrate the occasion, Paradox is inviting everyone in to try conquering the galaxy this weekend. Now through May 23, Stellaris is free to try on Steam. For players who've been traveling among Stellaris celestial bodies since the start, there's more good news: a hotfix is out today for the most recent major update, which arrived alongside the new Overlord expansion. Game director Stephen Muray says this hotfix includes several updates that had initially been planned for a patch later in the month, thanks to the fact that "the team was absolutely on fire". There are some key updates and rebalances in version 3.4.3 that address issues players have run into since the launch of Overlord. Now you can declare war on a new country immediately when a planet revolts, rather than having to sit through a 10-year truce first, and revolts should no longer start and then immediately cancel.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 19, 2022 3:12 PM  A new Destiny 2 season is imminent, and today's This Week at Bungie post covers more of the changes that will be coming May 24 with its arrival. However, what may be the biggest news is tucked away in the patch notes section: Destiny 2 Vault space is finally increasing, although perhaps not quite as much as players had hoped. Vault space has been a bit of a pain point for Destiny 2 players for quite a while, and the problem has only gotten worse as new seasons and expansions have introduced new gear to the far-ranging MMO game. It's an engineering problem rather than an intentional design decision, however, and Bungie says it's working on ways to increase the amount of Vault space available to each player. For now, however, we can expect Vaults to expand by 100 slots, going from the current 500 slots to a somewhat roomier 600. "While we know this doesn't enable players to save every single piece of loot in the game, the team was able to pull some strings and get a little more space for your Vaults as they continue to investigate further solutions," Bungie senior community manager Dylan 'dmg04' Gafner writes in today's post.

Have you ever looked at a crossword and thought, "This makes me think, but not as much as I'd like?" Perhaps you played a few KenKen puzzles and considered it not your thing due to the use of numbers? Maybe you started getting into puzzle games with Wordle and want to move on to something new like it. Knotwords combines elements from all three into something that feels distinctly refreshing. It is familiar, but at the same time original. Not to mention it relies on someone being logical and tapping into their vocabulary to succeed. At its core, Knotwords looks a lot like a crossword and plays a lot like KenKen. There is a grid in front of you. You need to place words into it. Some will cross over into others vertically and/or horizontally, meaning they'll share letters. Like KenKen, certain squares in the grid are grouped together to form cages. In the upper left corner of the upper left square in a cage, you'll see all of the letters for that group. Each one can only be used once. Your goal is to use the information available to figure out every word in the puzzle. If you get it right, you see the filled-in word. Enter a wrong answer, and red scribbles show you that it is incorrect. Also, as you fill in letters, the remaining empty squares in a cage will show which remaining letters could fit there.
All Knotwords puzzles require deductive reasoning. For example, a good way to start is to fill in words with only two or three letters. The number of cages and letters available are a good way to narrow down options as well. This lets you lock in a few "guaranteed" words. After that, looking for uncommon letters can help. Have a word with a "Q" in it? You'll likely need a "U" after it. If you have a five-letter word that already is shown to start with an "O" and end with an "N" and "E," and see a letter in a cage that is part of it is "Z," then you've got yourself an "ozone." It can also help if you get a cage that covers a single line. So say you have a row of four squares all in one cage. "O," "S," "Y," and "R" are the options. The word that works is "rosy." The hint system is when another crossword element comes into play. When stumped, you can ask the Knotwords rabbit for a clue. You'll be able to pick a line in the puzzle to get a definition. So in one case, it might say, "Simple past tense and past participle of a four letter word," then elaborate to explain what that four letter word can be. In this way, even if you are having trouble working out the positions on your own, it takes a more traditional approach from another iconic puzzle. Depending on the mode, you'll either be limited to a certain number of hints or see each hint used add to your puzzle's overall time.
What's convenient is Knotwords is designed to be played both on a daily basis or in longer sessions. When you enter the game, you'll have Puzzlebooks for the month or Daily Puzzles to choose from. In the May 2022 Puzzlebooks, you'll have a full month to complete 30 Standard and 30 Tricky challenges. You'll have 6/6 hints to use in these puzzles, which carry over, and you'll earn one more hint to replenish used ones after each one. Standard puzzles will feature more typical words, while the Tricky ones will involve words someone might not be immediately familiar with. As for the dailies, there are Daily Mini, Daily Classic, and Daily Twist options available. All of these rely on a system in which hints add to your total time. The Daily Mini is the shortest, as you might expect. These tend to be easy, and you get one per day. You can even go back and check ones from past days on the calendar, if you missed the seven for the current week. The Daily Classics are slightly larger and more challenging. Again, the calendar lets you go back and select ones you missed.
The Daily Twist is a sprawling puzzle that adds nonogram elements. It is also the most satisfying of all Knotwords puzzles, in my opinion. Along the top and side of the puzzle are numbers. These tell you how many vowels are in that line overall. So you not only have to keep track of the letters in the cages to complete the task, but check to make sure the vowels match too. In a way, this makes things easier for you. You're being held accountable in an additional way. But at the same time, it can also force you to think a little harder about your choices. Because right away, it can rule out some of the first options that come to mind. What I love most about Knotwords is sometimes, figuring out the positions of all letters in one cage or one word in a puzzle can cause everything else to fall into place. It's like you found the right domino and tipped it over, and everything else makes sense when you do. Finishing a puzzle in under a minute with no hints is exhilarating. Another great thing is Knotwords is accessible. Yes, some puzzles can have longer words. But there are usually tons of smaller words that help you gradually suss out the more complex or unorthodox entries. You can stop and save at any time, then return to the game. If you get a hint, it will be quite detailed. The visual cues to show accidentally repeating a used letter, incorrect entries, highlighted squares, and suggestions are all clear and visible. It is also quite easy to play on a PC, with the natural progression of inputs not requiring you to go back and click each individual square.
In short, Knotwords is clever. It is the kind of game that regularly gives you a reason to return to it. There are minor variations to make it more challenging or accommodate people learning how to play. It's also rather accessible, in terms of the UI, offering hints, and visibility. It is definitely a game folks who enjoy Wordle, crossword, and KenKen puzzles should check out. Knotwords is available for PCs and both Android and Apple iOS devices.

It seems the June 2022 Final Fantasy VII 25th anniversary announcements could include something related to FFVII Remake Intergrade. A Japanese trademark appeared on May 20, 2022 related to the game. Square Enix first filed for them on May 12, 2022. As expected, it covers a number o fronts, like software. [Thanks, Gematsu!] There are a few situations a new FFVII Remake Intergrade trademark could apply to. This could perhaps relate to ports. The game first debuted on the PS4 in April 2020, before the Intergrade version showed up on the PS5 in June 2021. The PC iteration of it then showed up on the Epic Games Store in December 2021. Due to timing and exclusivity arrangements, this could mean an Xbox release is on the way. Or, since Square Enix did so with Kingdom Hearts, a Switch cloud version. The next round of FFVII announcements will come in June 2022. Tetsuya Nomura confirmed them during the second FFVII The First Soldier livestream. He didn't name any specific games that could appear. However, in addition to the remake and battle royale title, FFVII Ever Crisis is in development. There could also be news about the next part of the remake. Final Fantasy VII Remake is available for the PlayStation 4. FFVII Remake Intergrade is out on the PlayStation 5 and PC via Epic Games Store.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Thursday, May 19, 2022 7:45 PM  Announced earlier today, Marvel Snap is a fast-paced collectible card game for PC by developer Second Dinner studios. If that name doesn't sound familiar to you, the man behind it might if you have been in the digital card game community for a while. This studio is led by Ben Brode, former director of Hearthstone, and this is his studio's first big project. The team clearly has a lot of passion for the project, which we can see in the first Marvel Snap trailer and gameplay walkthrough that dropped today. Marvel Snap gameplay is focused on speed. Instead of the traditional alternating-turn structure of most card games, Marvel Snap features simultaneous turns like Teppen. This makes sure that both players are always in on the action. An even more unique feature is deckbuilding. Each deck only has 12 cards in it, and only one copy of each. It sounds crazy at first, but each game only lasts a maximum of three minutes. Matches end automatically after the sixth turn. In ranked mod... |
