PCGamesN Monday, December 12, 2022 4:02 PM  Destiny 2 recycled content is becoming an issue. Players have pointed out that stagnant seasonal activities, reissued weapons, guns that look similar to precursors, and even map areas that resemble previously-used assets make it feel as though the Bungie team is taking shortcuts with its content development process. Destiny 2 content repurposing is nothing new. The recent Destiny 2 King's Fall raid is a reworked version of the original version of the raid, which appeared in the original Destiny's The Taken King. This season, players who engage in the FPS game's competitive Crucible can earn Rose, a hand cannon also reprised from the first Destiny game. This season's Iron Banner armour set is also a reissue of a popular set from Destiny.

Armored Core VI: Fires Of Rubicon marks the return of the mechs they used to make before Demon's Souls set them on a different, swordier path, and IGN have just published a big interview that pokes into what bearing the Soulsbourne lineage might have on a game about flying mechs with guns and missiles.
Armored Core director (and Sekiro lead designer) Masaru Yamamura welcomed Sekiro comparisons, while FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki was keen to stress they're treating it as an Armored Core game rather than a Soulsborne game.

The first male character is about to debut in Them's Fightin' Herds, as the Texas DLC will drop on December 19, 2022. People will be able to get him alone for $4.99. However, if they have $19.99 Season 1 Pass, they will already get the character when he debuts. Texas might already be a familiar character to people playing Them's Fightin' Herds.

When people get his add-on, they also get a lobby avatar and his Caravan Cattledome stage. Here's the newest character DLC trailer for Them's Fightin' Herds. Texas is voiced by Patrick Seitz. People may recognize him as the voice of Jeritza in Fire Emblem games like Three Houses, Victor in Soul Hackers 2, and Ladiva in Granblue Fantasy Versus. Texas is the second DLC to show up for Them's Fightin' Herds so far. The last one was Shanty, a pirate goat. Likewise, her add-on also included a lobby avatar and additional stage. Them's Fightin' Herds is available for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. The Texas DLC will appear on December 19, 2022. Three more characters are planned to appear in the Season 1 Pass. The post New Them's Fightin' Herds DLC character Texas Stomps in Next Week appeared first on Siliconera. |

But Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive clearly we're going to let sleeping marines lie. A year later, and they delivered again with the first Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 gameplay trailer. Hacking? Slashing? Oh, we have that. In Space Marine 2, Lieutenant Titus returns in his quest to secure the highest kill count on Orks.

Here's our guide on Altaria's weaknesses and best counters in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Note: For more information about the game, check out our Pokémon Scarlet and Violet guides and features hub. Altaria weaknesses and best counters in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Altaria's strong Dragon and Flying typing combined with its impressive bulk make it a tricky matchup for the unprepared. Thankfully, due to the absence of Mega Evolution in Scarlet and Violet, Altaria's superior form cannot be used. Its regular form is still strong, but Altaria is held back by its 4x weakness to Ice along with its 2x weakness to Dragon, Fairy, and Rock. Despite having a 4x weakness to Ice, it isn't always a good idea to use Ice types against Altaria. Many of Altaria...

It's been a while since Convoy mode came to American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2. Now, SCS Software is enhancing the multiplayer experience. Brought on by high user demand, this new feature will provide more flexibility with conducting a multiplayer session via dedicated servers in either American Truck Simulator or Euro Truck Simulator 2. As SCS outlines in its official blog post about the feature rollout, the ability for players to host dedicated servers will allow them to leave the server running continuously, regardless of whether anyone's online.

Border crossings in Euro Truck Simulator 2 are nothing new. After all, the game features a wide variety of different countries already. But, with the West Balkans expansion featuring such a plethora of new countries within of itself, and the fact that not all of them are EU members, the border crossings here are a little more complex.
