PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 12:47 PM  A new Skyrim mod inspired by the Stone Masks of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure turns the Dragon Priest masks into cursed JJBA cosplay. The overhaul to the RPG game system turns the masks from simple equippable pieces of armour into powerful, dangerous artifacts that bind to the wearer and imbue them with the spirits of the Dragon Priests themselves. The Curse of the Dragon Priests mod by creator grasscid takes inspiration from popular manga and anime series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - specifically the stone masks which appear in its first two parts. Much like the masks of JJBA, these new Skyrim masks cannot simply be equipped from your inventory. Instead, upon activation, the mask will forcibly bind itself to your face, "having the Dragon Priest possess and reshape your flesh entirely for himself." The longer you keep the mask on, the stronger its power will grow - reaching up to 4x its base potency and, in some cases, gaining additional effects. For example, Volsung's mask, which grants you additional carry weight, cheaper store prices, and underwater breathing, also adds the ability to walk on water from the third stage of growth onwards. Hevnoraak's mask, which makes the wearer immune to all forms of disease and poison, also ramps up your armour effectiveness as it gets stronger.

PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 12:46 PM  Looking for the best tower defense games on PC? For a time, the humble tower defense was one of the most popular genres out there. They may appear to be simple strategy games for more casual players, but fans would call them accessible tactical titles that require sharp reflexes, a sharper mind, and quick improvisation. The approachability of tower defense games stems from how deceptively straightforward they are - at least to begin with. A horde of enemies comes from specific directions across a small arena, and the player has to improvise a set of appropriate defenses - using scant resources - to deal with them. Enemies become tougher and more numerous as the game progresses, but the player gets access to better equipment to deal with them too. They're also highly addictive, which is why there remains a steady influx of tower defense titles - they even pop up in other genres too, such as the entertaining den defense minigame in Assassin's Creed Revelations. While the genre often veers towards smartphone and tablet gaming, there are still many fantastic tower defense games on PC right now. Here's the best of the best. |
PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 12:13 PM  The best management games are all about being the one in charge. Whether it's yelling at the England manager, cursing those clowns in Congress for doing it again (seriously, what a bunch of clowns), or laughing at Bryce Dallas Howard for running away from dinosaurs in high heels, we all think we could do better. This explains why management games have remained one of the most enduring and popular genres in PC gaming. It helps that managing balance sheets, planning cities, and bossing staff around is so easily translated to the keyboard and mouse. From the early days of city building in SimCity to refining tactics in Championship Manager, through to the more recent classics we've got below, the humble management sim accounts for some of the best PC games of all time - not to mention the most addictive. These management games will eat your life away like no other, but every hour spent laying electricity cables, tweaking prices, or adding extra toilets is time well spent, so read on for a roundup of the very finest.

PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 11:21 AM  A new report from loot box researcher Leon Y. Xiao states that Belgium's loot box laws banning the sale of the randomised microtransaction crates in games has not been properly enforced, with a majority of successful games among those available in the European country still implementing the systems. As reported by GamesIndustry.biz, the study, published by Xiao on July 28, found that 82 of the 100 highest-grossing Belgian iPhone games in May 2022 contained loot box features. This is despite a recommendation by the Belgian Gaming Commission in 2018 for criminal prosecution over the use of illegal loot boxes. Xiao's report says that the law has been circumvented easily by a number of different measures. As an example, the report states that in the case of Roblox, its publisher "did not explicitly require that user-generated loot boxes be blocked from purchase in Belgium." |

PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 10:51 AM  Looking for the best open world games on PC? From the early days of gaming, with Ultima and Lords of Midnight, open-world games have always been right at home on PC - indeed, those pesky consoles often couldn't handle it. Compare the ambitious early version of Halo to the final, more confined result, for example - and only the PC could hold sprawling regions in the very first Elder Scrolls games. Nevertheless, the leap into full 3D with Grand Theft Auto 3 and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind really brought the idea of open-world gaming to the masses. These days, open-world games are their own genre. You can find accurate depictions of real-life cities or countries, huge fictional expanses with their own landmarks, complete worlds to check out - or even entire galaxies, depending on where you want to go on your next adventure in one of the best open world games on PC. Given the genre's broader scope, the coolest thing about them is that they can come in various forms: the important feature is that they allow you to explore freely.

PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 8:26 AM  Diablo Immortal players are asking for one rather delightful addition to the RPG game - a Diablo 3 style pet system. While the free-to-play game has proven divisive, with some players unhappy with its microtransactions and forced warbands system, Diablo Immortal has continued to be successful, topping 30 million installs after its recent launch in China. Now, its fans are asking for a fun and useful addition to help with the Diablo Immortal leveling process. Diablo 3 features a range of class-based pets and minions, but the ones that Diablo Immortal players are interested in are the non-combat pets that follow your character around and automatically collect gold that drops nearby for you. Fellow action-RPG game Lost Ark also features a similar system where your pets grab dropped loot and also offer remote storage and mail access, as well as providing small buffs to the player character. Reddit user OK_Support9029 raised the idea on the official subreddit for the fantasy game. They say, "Nothing's more annoying than coming back for those 100-200 gold stacks that dropped after you moved onto the next group of mobs," suggesting that a gold-grabbing pet would be the perfect solution. "I'll always come back [to the game]," they continue, "but how much would the game experience improve if I had a little trash goblin by me?"

PCGamesN Friday, August 5, 2022 7:46 AM  Looking for a list of the best platform games on PC? Back in the '90s and early '00s, there were countless platformers for console gamers, while the PC had a reputation as a sort of wasteland for this one particular genre. Thankfully, this stigma has lessened since the days of Commander Keen, and we owe that in large part to the explosion of indie games that have flooded onto digital platforms over the past decade, meaning our fair platform is now bursting at the seams with solid platform games. The best platform games have garnered a reputation as requiring mechanical mastery and sublime timing to get into, but developers continue to push the genre forward by introducing gameplay elements from puzzle games and metroidvanias.

Camp Canyonwood is a camp counsellor sim, out now in early access, where you (an bird) look after a flock of demanding smaller birds.

They will also be available in the physical locations from August 11, 2022. [Thanks, Famitsu!] Each Pokemon plush will cost 4,400 JPY, which is around $33. You can order them from the Pokemon Center's Amazon page as well. This means that international customers will be able to purchase and get these items. However, the Pokemon Center website itself does not offer overseas shipping. The starter Pokemon of Pokemon Legends Arceus all originated from previous generations. Decidueye is from Sun/Moon, Typhlosion is from Gold/Silver, and Oshawott is from Black/White. Aside from the Hisuian forms looking different, they are also different types. For example, normal Decidueye is a Grass/Ghost type, whereas Hisuian Decidueye is Grass/Fighting. Here are some more pictures of the Decidueye, Typhlosion, and Samurott Pokemon plush toys: [gallery ids="933232,933233,933234" link="file"] As of the time of writing, the plushes are not on the Amazon storefront. They are also not on the Pokemon Center website, so their exact dimensions and sizes are unknown. The Decidueye, Typhlosion, and Samurott plushes will be available online from August 10 and in physical locations from August 11, 2022.

The arcade rhythm game series Beatmania IIDX will reach a new milestone with its upcoming thirtieth mainline iteration. Konami has launched a location test for Beatmania IIDX 30 Resident. The new entry will bring more quality-of-life improvements and new songs. Toby Fox is one of the composers contributing to the new tracks. Masaya "Camellia" Oya revealed on Twitter that he had collaborated with the Undertale creator to produce a new piece of game music titled "Summerblue." The song is available in the location test version. It will appear in the public arcade version after Konami updates the build to Resident. Konami will upgrade the arcade game's display resolution to Full HD (1080p) when it launches Resident. The new iteration will also have several quality-of-life improvements, such as a Notes Radar-based recommendation folder and a more detailed option to display the Fast and Slow input markers. Resident—revealed in 2022—will mark the 30th iteration milestone for Beatmania IIDX, but the series celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2019. While Konami has recently been releasing new iterations on a yearly basis, it used to release them twice a year during the series' early years. A location test for Beatmania IIDX 30 Resident is underway at Game Silk Hat Kawasaki Dice in Kanagawa, Japan until August 7, 2022. Konami will eventually replace the ongoing Japanese arcade game Beatmania IIDX 29 CastHour with the new version.

Toho Animation announced it is producing an anime adaptation of Kaiju No 8. A new teaser trailer gives fans a brief glimpse at how the anime adaptation may look and feel. Furthermore, a new official website, as well as an English Twitter account for the anime adaptation, has appeared. Toho Animation has not confirmed the animation studio for the adaptation. Kaiju No 8, also known as Monster #8, is a popular science-fiction kaiju manga series in Japan. The story follows Kafka Hibino, a member of a kaiju clean-up crew of sorts, who dreams of becoming a part of the Third Division defense force. After gaining the ability to shape-shift into a Kaiju, Kafka is determined to join the Third Division with the help of one of his childhood friends. https://twitter.com/KaijuNo8_O_EN/status/1555206933447163909?s=20&t=3dvOm-aP-3xfDqOZ-jxzDg The teaser trailer doesn't show any footage of the actual anime. Instead, it's a collection of black and white photos and animations of various streets in Tokyo, with audio hinting at some sort of Kaiju attack. The final seconds of the video reveal smoke clouds and a creature in the distance, before cutting to black. The manga series first appeared on the Shonen Jump + app for free in July 2020. As of writing, Kaiju No 8 has seven volumes in publication. The author of the series, Naoya Matsumoto, is a Shonen Jump veteran and has had his works serialized in the magazine since 2009. You can check out the Kaiju No 8 anime teaser trailer in the video below: https://youtu.be/-MaTda-Ws3Y Kaiju No 8 is available to read on Shonen Jump + for free in Japan.

Tactics Ogre: Reborn will be sold in both digital and physical forms overseas. However, it seems that Japanese buyers will have some extra goodies, like a Tactics Ogre Reborn Collector's Edition. They'll also have a chance at a special pre-order lottery. The Tactics Ogre Reborn Collector's Edition is exclusive to the Square Enix e-Store. As a physical package, it's also exclusive to the console editions of the game (PS4, PS5, and Switch). The package comes with the game itself, and several exclusive items. These include an art book with illustrations by Akihiko Yoshida and Tsubasa Masao, among others. There's also a three-volume script book set, containing dialog lines from all the story routes. Finally, a mini-soundtrack CD and set of tarot cards with a special bag and mat round out the offering. The package costs 22,000 Yen (about $165 USD). Check out some shots of the Tactics Ogre Reborn Collector's Edition in the gallery. [gallery columns="5" ids="933208,933209,933210,933211,933212" link="file"] Japanese fans who opt for the standard edition over the Tactics Ogre Reborn Collector's Edition won't miss out completely, though. All pre-orders for game placed through the Square Enix e-Store will be entered into a lottery for a replica Glass Pumpkin. Only 500 of the Glass Pumpkins will be produced. Lottery eligibility applies to physical pre-order of the game on consoles. Digital code pre-orders for the PC version are also eligible, since it doesn't have a physical edition. Glass Pumpkins are a rare item found throughout the Ogre Battle series (of which Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together is a part). They're coveted by the legendary witch Deneb. Deneb is a recurring Ogre Battle character, often seen running a secret item shop. She's also often recruitable as playable unit, though players usually need to accomplish some difficult or tedious feat. In the 2010 PSP game, players can sell Deneb 30 Glass Pumpkins (obtained through great effort in the optional Palace of the Dead dungeon) before recruiting her to unlock her unique class, Wicce. As a Wicce, Deneb is one of the most powerful magic-using units in the game. Tactics Ogre: Reborn will release globally on Nintendo Switch, PS4, and PS5 on November 11, 2022. It'll come out on PC on November 12, 2022. The post Tactics Ogre Reborn Collector's Edition and Glass Pumpkin Lottery Detailed appeared first on Siliconera. |

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, August 5, 2022 10:30 AM  There's usually something compelling about games that take influence from Hotline Miami's frantic neon-tinged, room-clearing violence. In my experience, the style doesn't fit well with first-person games for various reasons, although Animalistic does a few things to iron out some concerns. Animalistic is now available in Early Access, and has 13 of a planned 20 levels included for preview impressions. I shot my way through the first three, but had to stop due to photosensitivity issues I'll get into in a bit. Still, this is an interesting game with solid mechanics, especially if you want to violently decimate anthropomorphic animals. As should be clear from the Hotline Miami name drop in the previous paragraph, Animalistic sees you fighting your way through levels to get to the end without dying. Unlike Hotline Miami and most of the games that ape it, this one has the good sense to lose the one-shot-and-you're-dead ethos that can plague other first-p... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, August 5, 2022 9:30 AM  A little while back, Vampire Survivors received the 0.9 update, which made it seem like the 1.0 version laid right around the corner. As it turns out, though, developer poncle does not have the full version ready for Vampire Survivors players quite yet — update 0.10 has just been released. Those who expected the 1.0 version may feel disappointed by this news. But fret not, the new update, dubbed "The Not One," features quite a few new mechanics to mess around with. These come in the form of two additional characters, a new arcana, a new weapon, two new achievements, and a "secret menu option" for Vampire Survivors. At first, it may seem that the two new characters, Cosmo Pavone and Big Trousers, serve as the most substantial additions in the 0.10 update. But actually, the "secret menu option" is the star of the show this time. If you wish to bang your head against the wall and figure out this secret for yourself, then you can stop reading h... |

Back in the early days of online gaming, voice chats and chat wheels were nothing but a pipedream, and players could only really communicate through the in-game text chat (if the game even had one at all.)
