     Destiny 2 sparrow speed won't get faster anytime soon, dev confirms

A Destiny 2 sparrow speed bug that makes the vehicle faster than all others has deeper underlying development issues that render it impractical to apply to more sparrows, a Bungie community manager has confirmed.

Some time ago, players noted the Always on Time Exotic sparrow was faster than other sparrows in the game, which max out at 160 speed. Always on Time is also listed as 160, but due to the bug, it's significantly faster than other sparrows in the space game.

     The Steam Deck is missing an important element – exclusives

The Steam Deck is an utterly incredible device. It's basically a tiny PC that can play most of the huge triple-A games in addition to your standard indie games, but its party trick is that you can choose to take it on the go in handheld mode or plug it into the best Steam Deck dock and use it as a full Linux desktop. Yet there's something that's been bugging me about the device, something I couldn't quite put my finger on until very recently.

Hello! VidBud Liam here. You may recognise me from those videos that autoplay on every page. Or not. It depends on how quickly you scroll past, I suppose.

I joined team Arpus all the way back in February, and to say the last 11 months have been a whirlwind is a bit of an understatement. In less than a year I've made just under 90 videos covering a wide range of topics from major releases to international gaming events and brand-new hardware. My first year at RPS has been busy, basically. So when Katharine asked me to pull together a few of my personal highlights, I was kind of stumped. It's hard to pick favourites! It's even harder to celebrate my own achievements, but that's beside the point.

Don't look at me, I'm just the hardware guy. But I do recommend looking at these, my favourite also-ran games that weren't quite team-impressing enough to win a spot on the RPS Advent Calendar 2022. Out of everything I played this year, these are the avatars of adequacy, the sultans of satisfactory. The prime ministers of pretty good.

I'd probably also tip a hat to Warhammer 40K: Darktide, but Alice0 already nabbed it for her honourable mentions, and frankly there's enough shootybang stuff here as it is. But, also: toilet build quality testing, pushing Nazis into cement pits, and more than a hint of 70s funk. Check 'em out.

siliconera xbox game of the year 2022

Microsoft's collection of Xbox studios has been growing and growing, and the success of Game Pass means larger audiences for its signature titles. What have been 2022's best, though? It's a tougher question, but we did our best. Here's our pick for Xbox Game of the Year 2022.

These awards represent the consensus of the Siliconera staff. For more of the year's award selections, check out our Game of the Year 2022 archive.

siliconera 2022 xbox game of the year pentiment

Winner: Pentiment

While it may seem at first like a departure for developer Obsidian Entertainment, Pentiment proves to have all the narrative focus and world-building we've come to love from the studio. It presents itself in a different way, sure, but one with a compelling art style and a room for customization that really helps players feel like a part of the story.

tunic

Tunic

It was a long time coming, but Tunic's action-adventure gameplay made us think of another of 2022's hot releases. It gives you the freedom to explore in your own way, without the handholding of most modern experiences. Oh, and did we mention that it's darn cute? Because it is.

two point campus

Two Point Campus

This follow-up to Two Point Hospital moves the action from medicine to academia. The whimsical approach tends to work better here, we think, than the more serious subject matter of its predecessor, and Campus benefits from moving into a more original, modern approach than the spiritual-successor Hospital. The game's inclusion in Game Pass certainly didn't hurt, but what earns Two Point Campus a nod here the most? Just how naturally it controls on a console. That's always been hard to accomplish, and here it focuses a lot of the interface and makes it easier to play without dumbing down the game itself.

What are your Xbox Game of the Year 2022 selections? Let us know in the comments! And stay tuned for more of Siliconera's GotY 2022 awards.

Honkai Impact 3rd Herrscher of Truth Moveset Detailed

When the 6.3 update arrives for Honkai Impact 3rd, it will bring with it the Bronya Herrscher of Truth S-rank battlesuit. To help people better understand what to expect, HoYoVerse went over its moveset. It explained what that IMG-type, ice DMG-dealing unit can do in both of its two forms.

Here is the full list of attacks and abilities in the Herrscher of Truth Extremum and Continuation moveset in Honkai Impact 3rd. This Extremum form is essentially Bronya without any sort of extra armor, wielding her lance. Continuation form is more mech-like with ranged attacks.

  • Basic Attack: Silver Wolf's Echoes can result in a four-hit combo in Extremum and three-hit one in Continuation. In Extremum, the fourth hit unlocks a mecha weapon. With Continuation, it increases her Mech Propulsion and SP.
  • Combo Attack: Chariot of Nizhny Tagil will include Project Bunny to deal Ice DMG and unlock a mecha weapon in Extremum. In Continuation, it can hit multiple enemies and grant Echo of the World.
  • Ultimate: Narrative of Infinite Truth will shift Bronya to Continuation form from Extremum form and, the first time it happens, cast Salvo to restore SP. In Continuation form, it will deal Ice DMG to enemies and give all Fire and Lightning DMG allies the Elemental Breach buff.

Honkai Impact 3rd is available for the PC and mobile devices. The 6.3 Symphony of Truth update is expected to arrive in January 2023. When it does, it will add Herrscher of Truth as a playable Bronya battlesuit in Honkai Impact 3rd.

While there's no release date for the NieR Automata anime yet, Aniplex and Crunchyroll both briefly noted a possible one.

Hololive Valkyrie Connect Event Will Return Next Year

The original Hololive Valkyrie Connect event will be coming back to the game. This means people will once again see Laplus Darkness, Ninomae Ina'nis, Takanashi Kiara, and Usada Pekora in-game again. This is described as a "mini collab," rather than a full-fledged rerun, and is in honor of all four getting their "awakening" to power the units up. The event will begin on January 10, 2023.

Awakening a character in Valkyrie Connect is essentially a means of powering them up. To do so, you need to completely build up a character. You then need to get materials like Awakening Runes, Awakening Rune Shards, Soul Crystals, and Soul Shards for them.

There is also a contest leading up to the awakening. People can retweet a contest tweet to get a metallic art print of the four Hololive Vtubers in their game costumes.

The original crossover began back in May 2022. Ateam also teased a second Hololive event for the game. However, details about it haven't come up yet.

Valkyrie Connect is available on iOS and Android devices, as well as PC via Steam. The Hololive event will be back in Valkyrie Connect between January 10-31, 2023.

genshin impact genius invokation

Version 3.3 of Genshin Impact brought with it Genius Invokation TCG as a permanent fixture of the game. Though once a piece of lore that popped up in dialog or flavor text every once in a while, players can now engage in exciting card game action and collecting fun. You can play against NPCs (with rewards the first time you win against them) or against friends. It's a surprisingly addicting feature that, in its current format, feels balanced in its simplicity.

What is Genius Invokation TCG?

For those who have not yet experienced Genius Invokation TCG firsthand, here is a very simple breakdown of the rules and flow. Your deck must have 3 character cards, as well as 30 other ones. Those 30 cards can consist of Event Cards, Location Cards, and such. At the start of each round, you roll your Elemental Dice and then pull two cards. You can play as many cards as you want per turn, so long as you have the Elemental Dice to expend, and attacking with your characters require you to pay Dice as well. You win when you defeat all of your opponent's Character Cards.

Despite all the Yu-Gi-Oh references, the Genshin Impact Genius Invokation TCG honestly feels a bit more like a mix of Hearthstone and a poor man's Magic: The Gathering. It uses the same elemental reaction system in actual Genshin Impact combat. However, there are some alterations for the card game format. Overloaded, for example, will cause damage and then forcibly switch your opponent's Character Card. There are so many deck possibilities to run that it reminds me of when Genshin Impact first came out in 2020. It has been too long since I felt the excitement of discovering various character combinations and elemental reactions, and Genius Invokation is responsible for reviving that spark.

[gallery columns="2" ids="944393,944394" link="file"]

So Far, the Genshin Impact TCG Feels Balanced and Fair

I've seen some players claim that the game is "broken." because of cards that can make you draw more per turn (like Liyue Harbor Wharf or Strategize) or grant you more Elemental Dice (like Paimon). However, there are no search cards in this game. If you get those cards, then it's the luck of the draw. You can also have two of the same card in your deck to increase your chances of getting them. If you know exactly what is missing from your deck, you can always just purchase the necessary cards from Prince. Though the current "meta" seems to focus on Yoimiya and Ayaka, running that combination does not always guarantee a win. So much of Genius Invokation TCG falls onto your resource management and tactics.

Prior to the Genius Invokation TCG update in Genshin Impact, I spent quite a bit of time playing Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel. I have played Yu-Gi-Oh since the early 2000s and have seen it transform as Konami introduced new summoning methods and archetypes. While it was never a particular slow-paced game, it was nothing like it is now. Each turn drags on forever as you summon and sacrifice a veritable horde of monsters, rifling through your deck to get the perfect Spell Card you need to complete your combo. My love for how simple Genius Invokation TCG is might be due to the mind-boggling mess that modern Yu-Gi-Oh now is.

However, time will tell if Genius Invokation TCG can retain its game balance in Genshin Impact. So long as all players have access to the same pool of cards, then it should remain fair. Hopefully, HoYoVerse focuses on introducing more Character Cards for now. I think that adding more powerful Action Cards could easily topple over the balance it has achieved.

Genshin Impact is readily available for the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. You can play Genius Invokation TCG at the Cat's Tail in Mondstadt.

Chainsaw Man Finale, Makima, and Power Anime Trailers Appear

Leading up to the Chainsaw Man anime finale on December 27, 2022, a number of character trailers appeared, and the Makima and Power ones were the final two. Each video helps remind people what the characters were up to earlier in the season. Meanwhile, the finale teaser focuses on the build-up and fight against the Katana Devil.

Editor's Note: The Chainsaw Man Power and Makima trailers and finale teaser feature spoilers if someone hasn't been keeping up with the anime and manga.

First, here's the Chainsaw Man Power trailer. It begins by introducing her in a very vocal way. Then, we see what her daily life sharing a home with Aki and Denji is like. Due to her "nature," she doesn't believe in things like eating vegetables or proper hygiene. We also see her meeting her cat, Meowy, and living out in the wild.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUA2Evb8pHw&ab_channel=MAPPACHANNEL

Next is the Makima Chainsaw Man trailer. It begins with her first meeting with Denji. She happens upon him after he transformed into Chainsaw Man for the first time. Upon seeing him, she hugs him. The ensuing scenes show her both acting as the Public Safety Devil Hunter Special Division 4 head and teasing Denji in various ways.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOsl9kTJK6k&ab_channel=MAPPACHANNEL

Finally, here is the Chainsaw Man finale teaser. While it is only 15 seconds long, it shows folks like Denji, Power, and Aki as they prepare for the Katana Devil confrontation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYJvBnWxzTc&ab_channel=MAPPACHANNEL

As a reminder, leading up to the last episode PVs appeared for Aki, Himeno, Kobeni, and Pochita as well.

Build a Bear finally launched the last Pokemon Eevee evolution plush of Sylveon online, with a retail debut set for January 2023.

Finally, Build-a-Bear released its last Eevee evolution in its Pokemon plush line: Sylveon. The stuffed toy is now available online both in the US and UK. At the moment, it is only available in bundles on the storyfront. That means it costs $72/£57. However, retail debuts are on the way. The North American announcement noted it will show up in stores on January 5, 2023.

As is usual with the online bundle, it nets people the new Build-a-Bear Pokemon plush and some outfits. People get Sylveon with a five-in-one sound chip with its various cries. They also get two outfits for it. One is a pink cape with Poke Balls all over it and a fake white fur lining. The other is a pink pair of pajamas that, again, features a Poke Ball print.

Here's a full gallery showing Sylveon with and without its bundle outfits, as well as the cape and pajamas alone.
[gallery columns="4" size="full" ids="945019,945020,945021,945022" link="file"]

While people can only get the full bundle, the site did note individual prices for items. So when people find a Sylveon in a Build-a-Bear store, it will cost $46/£36.

It took quite some time for this Sylveon Eevee evolution plush to appear. For reference, the last one in this line was Leafeon, and it debuted back in March 2022.

The Build-a-Bear Sylveon plush is available online immediately and will be in stores in the US on January 5, 2023.

     Intel Canceling Meteor LakeA recent rumor suggests that Intel could be canceling its Meteor Lake-S CPU for desktops. This was first spotted after @OneRaichu on Twitter spoke about it in a very short tweet. And it's important to take this information with a pinch of salt for now. But there's seemingly a fair bit of evidence and logic behind the decision to cancel Meteor Lake-S. For those who don't know, Meteor Lake is the name of Intel's next-generation lineup of CPUs. Intel's current CPUs on the market are part of the Raptor Lake generation. But, if the rumors are to be believed, Intel is canceling Meteor Lake's desktop release. This is supposedly due to clock speeds falling behind Raptor Lake. Which wouldn't look good for the next-generation lineup. However, Meteor Lake is still reportedly on its way to mobile platforms. Ultimately this means that Intel CPUs could look a bit strange for a while. MTL-S seems maybe canceled.? — Raichu (@OneRaichu) December 23, 2022...

     When Where Does It Rain Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Sliggoo EvolutionRain is an important weather mechanic in Pokémon, as it's tied to both the strength of certain moves and specific evolutions. Those looking to complete the Pokédex or to acquire specific Pokémon will eventually need rain to do so. Here's our guide on when and where does it rain in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Note: For more information about the game, check out our Pokémon Scarlet and Violet guides and features hub. When and where does it rain in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet? The main reason most players want it to rain is to evolve Sliggoo. The slimy snail Pokémon can evolve into the mighty dragon that is Goodra at level 50. However, triggering this evolution requires the overworld to be either rainy or foggy. Unfortunately, there is no way to predict or control rain in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
