PCGamesN Tuesday, February 14, 2023 3:33 PM  The Destiny 2 season 19 finale launched today, creating an emotional turning point in a storyline that drew together throughlines dating back as far as the original Destiny to culminate in one of the most memorable missions in the game's history. The finale, ominously titled Final Dawn, brings together the stories of humanity, the Eliksni, and the Awoken in a fight against time to face forces led by Eramis, an Eliksni leader who holds a vendetta against the Traveler for leaving her people when they needed it the most. Eramis is also the primary villain in Destiny 2 Beyond Light and is now working alongside The Witness, a many-faced creature players first saw at the finale of The Witch Queen campaign in the popular FPS game.

The developers of the sci-fi co-op game say they've been working on a variety of changes to the core system by which players earn new gear, and while some of the tweaks are pretty significant, players are still concerned about elements that are remaining largely untouched.

PCGamesN Tuesday, February 14, 2023 12:41 PM  Tracking down the Hogwarts Legacy Infamous Foes is one of many challenges you can complete in the open-world game, though they won't appear at first. Instead, you'll need to fly your broom or mount of choice reasonably close to each of their locations, indicated by a skull marker. This will remain on the in-game map, so don't fret too much about forgetting where they are once you've found them. Defeating Hogwarts Legacy Infamous Foes in combat will get you points towards completing your Hogwarts Legacy challenges and some valuable loot to equip or sell for more Hogwarts Legacy money. Be careful, though, as they're significantly more brutal than the regular foes, with a few easily reaching the Hogwarts Legacy max level. There are a total of 21 Infamous Foes in Hogwarts Legacy and around half of them are found in the open Hogwarts Legacy map, while the other half are in side quests that the RPG game offers. Note that you need to know how to unlock Hogwarts Legacy doors with Alohomora via finding the Demiguise Statues in order to take all of them on.

PCGamesN Tuesday, February 14, 2023 12:33 PM  The Minecraft archeology system was an exciting new mechanic first announced as part of the massive, but controversial, Caves and Cliffs update. A number of announcements made at the same time were eventually shelved, including bundles and archeology, while The Warden and its Deep Dark biome were delayed as part of the update being split in two. This was no bad thing, as it was due to so much more content being added than originally planned, and now, the archeology system is officially back in business. Thanks to the delays, changes, and disappointments of previous updates, Minecraft 1.20 is evolving a little differently, with no features being revealed until they are definite, and no official name. Both the community and development are shaping the update organically ahead of its full rollout. The latest reveal confirms that archeology is now officially one of the features coming with the Minecraft 1.20 release date, as confirmed by Mojang Studios. To refresh your memory on the mechanic, here's everything we know about the Minecraft archeology update.

PCGamesN Tuesday, February 14, 2023 12:17 PM  Is Quidditch in Hogwarts Legacy? The Quidditch World Cup game released back in 2003 remains a fan favourite, so if the sport fits within the timeline of Hogwarts Legacy, its inclusion seems like a no-brainer. We know that Hogwarts Legacy is based in the 1800s - long before the events of Harry Potter. Many well-known features remain though, such as Hogwarts Legacy Floo Flames and the Hogwarts Legacy common rooms, so where does this leave Quidditch? From Harry Potter lore, we know that the earlier incarnations of the game were recorded as far back as the 11th century, with other broomstick games dated even further back than that. So, while it would technically fit into the story of the RPG game, Warner Bros has confirmed that Quidditch is not playable in Hogwarts Legacy right now.

If you explore every nook and cranny of a dungeon, you may find a few gold coins scattered around, but it's not really the most efficient way to make galleons, the currency of the wizarding world. Money is handy for many things in Hogwarts Legacy, but you'll need a tidy sum to buy every possible upgrade. In addition, you can purchase recipes for items to conjure up in the Room of Requirement, brew new Hogwarts Legacy potions, or seeds to grow plants such as the Mandrake. These are a few get-rich schemes to make Hogwarts Legacy money in no time at all.

PCGamesN Tuesday, February 14, 2023 12:06 PM  Hogwarts Legacy Shrivelfig fruit sounds pretty tasty, but while you can't consume it raw, you do need it to make Thunderbrew potion, which damages opponents with a storm. Ok, maybe we wouldn't want to eat it. You first come across Shrivelfig fruit during one of Professor Sharp's assignments. The Hogwarts Legacy potions professor will task you with making Thunderbrew, and will reward you with the Diffindo spell, so of course you need to locate the necessary ingredients. As with other plants and fruits in Hogwarts Legacy, there's a specific Hogsmeade shopkeeper who can help you out, or you can grow your own Shrivelfig in the Hogwarts Legacy Room of Requirement.

As a fledgling wizard or witch, there's only so much you can learn in a single year, even if you are catching up on the curriculum by cramming in extra assignments. Most RPGs, such as this one, have a maximum level you can reach to prevent you from becoming overpowered, and Hogwarts Legacy is no exception. The main thing with the Hogwarts Legacy max level cap is that unwise decisions with every level up will have consequences. If you want to improve your Hogwarts Legacy spells or the potency of your Hogwarts Legacy potions, then you need to invest in them with talent points. The other area of the open-world game to keep an eye on is the enemy level caps in the regions of the Hogwarts Legacy map outside of school grounds.

Pick rates are determined by the percentage of players who choose a legend in any of the competitive modes in Apex Legends. The Apex Legends pick rates can change dramatically with each patch, as legends get their abilities buffed and nerfed in the FPS game. Wraith, for example, was notoriously overpowered in years gone by but took a nosedive in playtime when her abilities got decimated by a nerf. She has recently clawed her way back into the second spot, with players finding a decent use case for her niche kit in the free PC game.

PCGamesN Tuesday, February 14, 2023 12:00 PM  What are the best adventure games? From 1976's text-based Adventure – that gave the genre its name – through the point-and-click golden age of the '90s and up to more modern fare, few genres have endured quite so well as the adventure game. That multi-decade lifespan has produced some of the most astounding titles, so it is certainly a struggle to narrow down a list of the best adventure games. Adventure games have prospered thanks to a focus on story and character. That, and a few tricky brain teasers, as opposed to violence, set the genre apart. Characters usually get by through talking or thinking instead of resorting to fighting – though, Full Throttle protagonist Ben might have a few things to say about that.

In fairness, though, co-op adventure Blanc looks like it's going to be a lot lighter than games like Endling: Extinction is Forever and the notoriously upsetting Shelter series at first glance, but I've learned to never let my guard down around these kinds of games. Those cute art styles are almost always a front for a brutal sneak attack on your emotions. Blanc is very much aiming for your heartstrings with its adorable animal duo and picturesque snowy landscapes. The first half teases massive potential for a cutesy story with fun puzzle antics, but the game is majorly let down by a repetitive and often frustrating second half and lacklustre ending. After the promise of a warm, cosy adventure, I watched the end credits roll and couldn't help feeling like I'd been left out in the cold. |

A new gameplay trailer for Lies of P appeared on IGN's Twitter account. At around two minutes long, it gives an overview not only of the game's worldview, but also of Pinocchio traversing through its environments. Lies of P is an action adventure game in the vein of Dark Souls, drawing inspiration not only from the story of Pinocchio, but also the Belle Epoque era of French history. You can watch the trailer for Lies of P here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yDx7Px6yMU The trailer does not really give any concrete information on the plot. NEOWIZ West did post a story trailer for Lies of P about a year ago that gives more detail on what to expect. Since the game will be a souls-like, it will likely focus on dodging and blocking rather than a hack-n-slash combat system. In Lies of P, you play as Pinocchio, and you must fight through the violent city of Krat in order to find Geppetto. Since Pinocchio is a puppet just like in the original fairy tale, he will likely be able to upgrade his body to learn new skills or use new weapons. In the trailer, Pinocchio fires a beam from his left hand. Lies of P is in development for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Windows PC, and it will come out in 2023. More information on it will come out during IGN FanFest, which will be on February 17-18, 2023. The post Lies of P Gameplay Trailer Shows Off Pinocchio's Moves appeared first on Siliconera. |
