PCGamesN Friday, March 3, 2023 9:43 AM  Destiny 2 Terminal Overload is a new activity on Neomuna, similar to The Blind Well or Nightmare Containments. Completing these activities can grant some sweet Neomuna weapons, but you must first earn keys to unlock special end-of-activity chests. If you're hungry to see all the weaponry those Cloud Striders have to offer, here's what you need to know about completing Terminal Overload and obtaining these keys. You won't be able to earn Terminal Overload keys until you complete every mission on the Destiny 2 Lightfall mission list.

PCGamesN Friday, March 3, 2023 7:41 AM  The best sandbox games are difficult to nail down, as the sandbox style is spread across countless genres with disparate mechanics and settings. But all sandboxes share a common trait: freedom. Whether it's creating a whole world or building up a gang of criminals across a city, sandbox games leave most of the agency up to the player. They are universes to be experienced at a pace not dictated by developers. Some of the best PC games of all time are those which allow total player freedom, but there needs to be a bit of clarity when looking at what makes a great sandbox game. They have, since the days of Elite and Ultima, referred to open-world games filled with choice and diversions. But revisionist history would describe them as "games like Minecraft". For the purposes of this exploration of the best of the bunch, we're taking a look at them all. We support sandbox egalitarianism. So, from the mean streets of Los Santos through the ruthless missions of Agent 47 and the stunning expanse of Eve's universe, these are the very best sandbox games on PC.

However, Elden Ring dungeons house some vitally important gear, from healing items and Elden Ring weapons to key items required to unlock new areas.

PCGamesN Friday, March 3, 2023 7:58 AM  Discovering how to respec in Elden Ring is crucial if you're eager to switch from a dual-wielding melee maestro to a spell-slinging wizard on the fly. We've also got some advice for you if you're doing the Sellen quest and suddenly realise that the person you go to in order to respec your character is suddenly missing - don't panic, things may not be as bad as you think. One of the great things about FromSoftware's soulslike game is that it doesn't lock you into your chosen Elden Ring build. Changing your stats to effectively experiment with different Elden Ring classes is perfectly possible, provided you have some Larval Tears.

These seeds are codes that Minecraft uses to generate worlds for you, so even though new worlds are randomly generated, you can rebuild in the same ones over and over again. Of course you can leave your world generation completely up to fate, but if you're unlucky, you could spend hours looking for a Minecraft ancient city, desert temples, your favourite Minecraft biomes, and other desirable features.

PCGamesN Friday, March 3, 2023 6:05 AM  Want to know who the best Overwatch 2 tank heroes are? There's a lot to consider when it comes to picking the best tank hero, especially since the PvP format made the switch from 6v6 to 5v5. Though all tank characters are reasonable picks with the right surrounding team comp, our selection makes it easy to pick up a strong hero that can hold their own no matter what situation they're in, which is important if you solo queue a lot. Tanks now occupy just one spot on a team and they're arguably the most influential member. Players no longer have an off-tank to cover mistakes or pair abilities with, and as the FPS game shifts to a more messy, dive-based meta, picking the right tank hero is a major decision.

What's next, a title screen review? A lengthy personal essay about an attract mode clip? Can my cat get a review? First off, yes. Captain Waffles is a visceral tour-de-force that no fan of the genre should miss. 10/10. Secondly, you should know that Immortal Empires is, as far as Total War: Warhammer goes, the game mode. More importantly, this ridiculously expansive, years-spanning grand-strategy project exists as tangible proof that sometimes, the limitless hubris of man is actually rad as hell, despite what the ancient Greeks said.

The film doesn't have any talent attached right now, but the two companies are currently looking for a director and a screenwriter.

The latest skin reveal from the upcoming crossover event between hit manga One-Punch man and Overwatch dresses Kiriko as Terrible Tornado. Blizzard previewed the skin via a post on the official Overwatch 2 social media accounts, as well as a blog post on the Xbox Wire site. The crossover event launches on March 7, 2023. The new skin will land as part of the Overwatch 2 and One-Punch Man crossover. It'll be unlockable as part of a bundle that costs 2,100 coins in the in-game store. Purchasing it unlocks the legendary-rarity skin, a pose for Kiriko called "Terribly Impressive", and a Terrible Tornado namecard. The bundle will be available for purchase until April 6, 2023. [gallery columns="2" size="medium" ids="953676,953677" link="file"] Blizzard also shared some concept art and screenshots of Kiriko wearing the skin. Speaking about the design process for Kiriko's skin, Overwatch 2 Art Director Dion Rogers noted that Kiriko's silhouette was a fit to Terrible Tornado's, making her compatible with the character. He also noted that skins like the One-Punch Man crossovers are treated as a form of cosplay, meaning that the characters don't necessarily sacrifice their visual identity to inhabit the look of the character. Some differences would also naturally emerge, considering that Kiriko is much taller than Terrible Tornado is. Terrible Tornado (a.k.a. Tatsumaki), is one of One-Punch Man's professional heroes. A monstrously powerful telekinetic, Tornado is 2nd-rank S-Class hero, making her the second-strongest officially recognized hero in the One-Punch Man world. She's also the elder sister of Hellish Blizzard, the 1st-rank B-Class hero. Though she's 28 years old, her petite build often leads others to mistake her for a child. Overwatch 2 is readily available on the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC. The One-Punch Man crossover event runs from March 7, 2023 to April 6, 2023.

March 3rd is an auspicious day of the Chinese calendar. It was initially held to celebrate the flowering period of peach trees.

Parties are held, and traditional dishes like Chirashi Sushi, strawberry daifuku, sakura mochi, and traditional sweets of a similar type to the PlayStation Candy.

At the moment, further orders for the Fathom FFVII Tifa apparel are paused, but will resume once stock is arranged.

The memo is titled "Notification of Changes in the Representative Director of the Company and a Consolidated Subsidiary." In this case the "Company" referred to is Square Enix Holdings Co., Ltd, the multinational holding company that represents Square Enix and its various subsidiaries. The "Consolidated Subsidiary" is Square Enix, Co., Ltd. The current Square Enix President and Representative Director, Yosuke Matsuda, will be replaced by Takashi Kiryu. He is is a Board Member at Square Enix and former Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) for Square Enix Holdings, as well as Chairman of Square Enix China.

The memo also outlined the reason for the change, citing the need to "reshape the management team." Here's the full quote:
Yosuke Matsuda began his tenure as Square Enix President in 2013, when he replaced Yoichi Wada. Wada was the President of Square when it merged with Enix in 2003 to become Square Enix. During Matsuda's time as president, Square Enix saw major restructuring and consolidation of Square Enix's western studios. Eventually, the studios were sold in May 2022. Matsuda also made headlines over the past couple of years for leading the company's push into blockchain- and NFT-related business ventures. In his 2022 New Year's Letter to shareholders, Matsuda expressed enthusiasm about NFTs, blockchain-based gaming, and "the Metaverse", expressing the belief that the so-called "play-to-earn" gaming space could change how the economy of games worked globally. He reiterated Square Enix's commitment to exploring the space as late as January 2023. The post Square Enix President Matsuda Will Be Replaced in June 2023 appeared first on Siliconera. |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, March 3, 2023 7:50 AM  While grabbing items in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, you'll no doubt come across Golden Cicada shells — or husks. These are scattered around and you'll find them all throughout the game. The problem is, the game doesn't tell you what you're supposed to do with them. They might seem important, but the truth is they're not that big of a deal. However, you'll probably still want to turn them in as you might like what they offer in return for your efforts, even if the rewards certainly could have been better. Read on to find out what to do with the Golden Cicada shells in Wo Long. In the hidden village, you'll notice a tall tower with walkable vines on its side. If you can't spot it, it's the one in the above picture. Head towards it and then climb it to meet a hermit at the top. He'll ask you to bring him Golden Cicada shells, so you'll need to go and chat with him any time you want to trade them in. But what do you get ... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, March 3, 2023 7:40 AM  Early on in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, you'll meet a blacksmith named Zhu Xia in one of the game's levels. You may be expecting her to pop up in each level, but you won't see her showing up in the field again. If you want to make use of her services, you're going to need to go and see her on her home turf. After all, you can't upgrade your gear or embed new traits on them without her help, so it's understandable that you might be wondering where she's hiding in the rest of the game. Turns out she isn't far at all. Here's how to find the blacksmith so you can upgrade your gear in Wo Long. Related: How to change your appearance and your stats in Wo Long. Where to find the blacksmith After doing the game's intro, you'll be able to visit the hidden village via the "other" category on the travel menu. Once there, you'll find yourself near a flag.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, March 3, 2023 7:30 AM  One of the toughest parts of highly customizable games is having to commit to your appearance and stat distribution. That goes double for tough games where making the wrong choice can have dire consequences for dozens of hours. You might be worrying that that's the case in Wo Long, but you can not only reset your stats freely, you can even change any aspect of your appearance that you're unhappy with. Doing this is extremely easy, so you don't need to worry about getting stuck with anything for the duration of the game. Nothing is really set in stone. An NPC in Wo Long is responsible for allowing you to reset your stats and change your appearance. You can find him inside the nearest building when you travel to the hidden village. His name is Zuo Ci, and you can find him sitting at a table. Simply approach him and speak to him via the prompt that appears once you get close and he'll provide a list of options. These options include both a stat reset and the ab... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, March 3, 2023 7:20 AM  If you weren't aware, not only does Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty have a plethora of side missions, but you can freely replay missions you've already completed with ease. You can always move elsewhere or return somewhere you've previously been if you want to farm for essence or just grind out some gear to salvage for upgrades. You can also go back and plant any flags you may have missed the first time around. The game's side missions are fairly short, though, and can sometimes be completed in just a few minutes, but they offer a good change of pace from the more intense main missions. Here's how to do side missions and replay main quests in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. To play side missions or replay previous missions, you only need to rest at a planted flag. From there, you'll notice an option that says "travel." Select this and you'll then see the game's missions divided by chapter. You can scroll through each chapter and look at all... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Friday, March 3, 2023 7:10 AM  After the first Lu Bu fight, you got treated to two levels in a row with easy bosses. If you were hoping for another one, this fight certainly dashed those dreams to tiny pieces. Dong Zhuo is a fairly tough Wo Long boss fight that's honestly fairly unlike any boss battle you've done in the game previously. He's honestly not that hard. Oh, except for the fact that he likes to spam a grab that's almost certain to kill you if it hits you. Oh, and it can be borderline impossible to escape from if he happens to use it when he's close to you. Right. Anyway, if you're running into issues, then read on to find out how to beat Dong Zhuo in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Steps to beat Dong Zhuo in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty The fight against Dong Zhuo begins with you walking through a set of doors and immediately getting a bunch of knives thrown out you. You typically wouldn't know this when you first fight him, so you're likely going to take them to ... |
