PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 9:58 AM  Destiny 2 community manager DMG says that cases of harassment have "actively made it harder" for Bungie to speak with its fan community, and has called for more people to "stand against" harassment behaviour. As originally reported by Forbes, DMG's comments are sparked by a Destiny 2 player suggesting that Bungie host a weekly "PvP chat", where the developer takes questions and listens to feedback from the game's community. Though DMG does not respond to that suggestion directly, he does comment on the general relationship between game developers, and some aspects of their fan communities.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 9:05 AM  The latest World of Warcraft expansion, Dragonflight, is set to completely reshuffle the talent tree system. Earlier this month Blizzard showed off the new Hunter talent trees, which continued the design trend of injecting more creativity and choice into the speccing process. Under the new system, each class has five sets of abilities - their core class skills, shared by all specs; their class talents, unlocked through the core tree; and a separate tree for each spec. The new system also incorporates abilities previously only tied to Covenants and rare weapons. Having said that, Rome wasn't built in a day, and major changes are a process that involves incorporating player experiences. As such, Blizzard have announced a list of changes to be made to the Hunter trees following feedback. RELATED LINKS: Best MMORPGs on PC, The best WoW addons, WoW Classic leveling guide |
PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 9:03 AM  Minecraft is already a very clever game, but it could look better, right? There's one weird way people can redesign things with ease at the moment, and that's AI. Thanks to images from Dall-E running rampant around the internet, AI is a big thing at the moment, so it was only a matter of time until someone gave Minecraft the AI treatment.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 7:52 AM  The Intel Core i5 13600K may not be the most powerful Raptor Lake processor, but it could be the best gaming CPU for those who don't need the extra performance that comes with more premium i7 and i9 models. That said, new benchmarks indicate that it may be surprisingly performant for a mid-range chip, offering substantial gains over its 12th Gen counterpart.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 7:34 AM  Shotguns have been a big part of Fortnite this season. We get it, they make for some incredibly fun weapons, but it's still odd to see this singular focus.

It's pretty simple to set up and once you get started, you'll have a place to keep track of all your mods, whether that's tweaking your interface or spicing up your exploration.

If you do have the Java Edition, then Minecraft Forge is a fantastic tool for managing every single one of your compatible mods. When approaching it for the first time, it can be a little daunting.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 6:05 AM  Grand Theft Auto V is the ultimate playground for people who want to look smooth but play rough.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 9:49 AM  Looking for Genshin Impact codes? MiHoYo's charming open-world game is notoriously easy to lose yourself in, and if you're like us, you're constantly looking out for more Genshin Impact primogems and other handy consumables. Gathering currency in Genshin Impact can be quite the grind - while you can earn mora and primogems by completing quests such as daily commissions, an injection of extra funds will always be gratefully received. Fortunately, the developers MiHoYo occasionally send out free gifts in the form of Genshin Impact codes that can be redeemed online. These Genshin Impact codes are released periodically, frequently appearring in MiHoYo's special programs that reveal information about future updates coming to the game soon, but also to celebrate milestones or to coincide with new Genshin Impact events. Most codes also only work for a limited time - so it's a good idea to redeem them as soon as possible in case you miss out. Codes can only be redeemed once per account. Here are all the current Genshin Impact codes for July 2022, and how to redeem them.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 4:27 AM  Earlier in the week we reported on a strange World of Warcraft bug, in which a warlock's Felguard, the beefy Rinnrike, retained the buffs from a Torghast run even after leaving the roguelike dungeon. The player, hoping to avoid a suspension for using an exploit, made every effort to rid themselves of the unearned power-up, eventually successfully ridding themselves of the forbidden fruit via the Glyph of Wrathguard. Unfortunately, not all WoW players are quite so honourable. RELATED LINKS: Best MMORPGs on PC, The best WoW addons, WoW Classic leveling guide |
PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 6:00 AM  Nvidia RTX 4000 graphics cards will likely replace current-gen GeForce RTX 3000 GPUs later this year, and more information about the coveted components is emerging by the day as we get closer to launch. To help you navigate the convoluted waters of leaks and rumours, we've compiled everything we know so far about team green's next-generation pixel pushers. We expect that RTX 4000 will be available in three form factors: desktop GPUs, laptop graphics cards, and as part of the Nvidia GeForce Now streaming service. Each will probably release at different points, but they should all benefit from technologies like Nvidia DLSS and Nvidia Reflex. As much as RTX 4000 GPUs will undoubtedly offer a high level of performance, these next-generation graphics cards may face stiff competition from the likes of AMD RDNA 3 and Intel Arc Alchemist. Thankfully, we shouldn't have to wait much longer to find out how the RTX 4090, RTX 4080, RTX 4070, and RTX 4060 stack up against their rivals.

PCGamesN Monday, July 18, 2022 7:10 AM  What are the best horror games on PC? Horror games tend to turn traditional action concepts on their heads and force you to run and hide from your enemies. Scary games leave you feeling vulnerable rather than empowered, and more than most, they are the gaming experiences that haunt you long after you play. Of course, there is a lot more to the best horror games than jump scares and gore, too. So while we have included a few obvious picks like Outlast and Amnesia, you can also expect to find games that use different tactics to raise your heartbeat and get your palms sweating. Don't worry about this list getting out of date, either: we hop back into our lists regularly to add new scary games. Remember, as Roosevelt once said, "we have nothing to fear but that bit in FEAR where you're going up a ladder and Alma suddenly pops out and you are all like argh!" Here are the best horror games on PC you can play right now... if you dare. RELATED LINKS: Resident Evil 2 review, Resident Evil 2 system requirements, Resident Evil 2 Tyrant |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, July 18, 2022 9:45 AM  Well, this is a pleasant surprise. When I first sampled the tower defence deckbuilding delights of ORX a couple of months ago, I'd assumed that we'd be playing as the demo's medieval castle builders throughout. Today, however, devs Johnbell have announced a brand-new faction for the game, the sand-loving Dune Reavers. Even more intriguing, though, is that the Dune Reavers aren't actually big fans of building, you know, towers, favouring instead the brute force approach of their large armies. Can you still call it tower defence if there aren't any towers involved? Decide for yourself by watching the new gameplay trailer below. |

That feverish ferocity to see just one more episode is the best feeling.

Split perfectly into two chunks that cover three chapters each, it's a thrilling adventure that deserves a prime time slot in your evenings over the weekend. |

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, July 18, 2022 6:53 AM  The UK government has called for games companies to take greater responsibility in protecting children and young people from harm linked to loot boxes, including mental health issues and gambling problems. Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries said that games companies and platforms needed to ensure parental purchase controls and age restrictions were in place to let kids play without the risk of harm, and to put parents' minds at ease. Xbox's parental restrictions on loot box purchases for under-18s were singled out for praise, and the government now say they will legislate if the rest of the industry doesn't follow suit. |

Starting from the fourth episode of RWBY: Ice Queendom, the show will start to tell its own story. To reflect this, there is a new key visual and trailer. The trailer shows Shion Zaiden, who is a Nightmare Hunter exclusive to the anime version of RWBY. Episode 4 will air on July 24, 2022. [Thanks, Comic Natalie!] [gallery columns="1" ids="932295" link="file"] The trailer, which is just over a minute long and is the third for RWBY: Ice Queendom, shows Ruby, Blake, and Yang on a mission to save Weiss from a dream world. She is in the dream world because a Nightmare has trapped her in it, and the only way to get her out is to go inside of her mind to defeat it. After Shion sends them in, there are a few shots of Weiss fighting Blake on the basis of Blake being a Faunus. This seems to be based on a similar conflict between the two characters in the original show. You can watch the third RWBY: Ice Queendom trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVYqyoKAwVQ&t Hiroyuki Asada also provided the end card for episode 3. Asada is the Japanese manga artist behind Tegami Bachi, or Letter Bee. According to Asada, he felt that Shion is similar to his usual art style, and thus drew her.

Japanese actor and voice artist Jun Shison will portray Kurama in the live-action Netflix adaptation of Yu Yu Hakusho. This news comes a day after the initial reveal of live-action Yusuke, whom Takumi Kitamura of Tokyo Revengers will portray. An image released alongside the announcement gives us a look at what Kurama will look like in the show. We can see his signature red hair and Chinese-inspired outfit. [Thanks, Comic Natalie!] [gallery columns="1" ids="932289" link="file"] Previous live-action roles from Shison include Masa in The Way of the Househusband and Atsumu "Yukiatsu" Matsuyuki in Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day. He also voiced protagonist Hibiki in Bubble, starring alongside voice actor veterans such as Mamoru Miyano and Yuki Kaji. Shison states that he's been a fan of Yu Yu Hakusho since his student years and was surprised he got the part. While he is happy, he also feels immense pressure because of how many Kurama fans there are. He also states that he thinks the reason Yu Yu Hakusho remains so popular is because of the character dynamics. While everyone fights for their own reasons, they hold respect for each other and fight for each other, which is something everyone in any country or generation can relate to. Kurama is an immensely popular character from Yu Yu Hakusho, often appearing in the top 3 of popularity polls. In the show, Kurama is a demonic fox thief who escapes to the human world after a grievous injury. He then fuses with human Shuichi Minamino in the womb. He meets Yusuke on one of Yusuke's earlier jobs as a Spirit Detective and becomes friends after Yusuke helps him save his mother. The live-action Yu Yu Hakusho adaptation is in development and will air on Netflix worldwide in December 2023.

Pokemon nerds, listen up: The Pokemon Company is looking for an archivist to create an "internal The Pokemon Company International Company Archive and Museum." As the archivist, your job will be to develop a company archive to catalog all pieces of lore, both in-game and out. This will include all eight (nine, if you include Scarlet and Violet) generations of games and span around 1,000 species of Pokemon. [Thanks, Vice!] The Pokemon archivist will need to create both physical and digital archives. They will also need to provide a "descriptive metadata schema" so that others can search through them. This data bank will encompass the games, anime, movies, and trading card game. Since this is a "museum," the archivist will need to acquire "artifacts" such as cards. You likely will not need to include all of the Pokemon-related goods or jewelry that other companies have released. Lastly, you will have to create a security protocol. The annual pay for this position will be between $77,000 and $118,000. While it is not a requirement, the job listing does state that The Pokemon Company would prefer someone with a Bachelor's Degree in Library Science, Archives Management, Information Management, or another similar field. You will need 3-4 years of related professional experience, however. Those who are interested can apply for the position of Pokemon archivist online.
