     Diablo 4 has its first level 100 player

The first known player to hit the Diablo 4 max level cap is here. Diablo 4 Twitch streamer and YouTuber Rob 'Rob2628' has reached level 100 in the Blizzard RPG game after close to three days of almost non-stop blasting. His success makes him the first person to reach the milestone and publicly announce it, although the method by which he got there shows just how strong playing in a group is in Diablo 4.

     The System Shock remake's coolest bonus makes me wish I could smell it

The System Shock remake is finally upon us, and the immersive sim FPS game is an absolute blast from the past that endeavors to modernize a classic while staying true to what made it special in the first place. To that end, System Shock includes a somewhat hidden bonus that I absolutely love, and if you've missed the physical side of videogames in recent years, you're going to love this too.

     It's time for Valve to implement a 'DRM-free' Steam tag

Steam remains the primary place most people go for PC games, and for the most part the Valve storefront is fantastic. However, there's always room for improvement, and among an increasing number of the best PC games employing DRM tools such as Denuvo on Steam, one helpful addition to the feature tag system would be very welcome by users.

     The best Far Cry game is 70% off right now

There's something about Far Cry 2 that I just can't shake. It's a special kind of magic, a game that isn't afraid to make your life awkward in service of true immersion. The open-world playgrounds of Ubisoft's various Far Cry games are something I've long delighted in, with the FPS games always having incredible gameplay at their core even when the likes of Far Cry 6 fell a little short elsewhere. If, however, you're a player who missed out on the early entries then this Far Cry 2 Steam sale is a perfect opportunity to find out what makes it so beloved.

     Armored Core 6 was almost more like Elden Ring than you'd think

Armored Core 6 was almost going to be more like open-world game Elden Ring, according to developer FromSoftware. The longstanding mecha series might be coming back after From's decade-long focus on Souls games, but the team is sure that it doesn't need to emulate what makes those games a success to make this game work, as the Armored Core 6 release date gets closer.

Is Diablo 4 on Game Pass? There's been a lot of confusion regarding Diablo 4 appearing on Game Pass due to Microsoft's attempted acquisition of Activision Blizzard over the past year.

With the Diablo 4 release date finally here, check out what the devs say are the best Diablo 4 builds, as well as our definitive guide to the Diablo 4 classes, and our Diablo 4 review if you're still on the fence about the purchase.

     Best Diablo 4 settings and PC options

What are the best Diablo 4 settings? Equipping yourself with the ideal D4 PC settings will stave off any stutters and frame drops that make a demon out of any normally pious gamer. Blizzard's RPG is as stunning to look at as it is demanding on your PC, and our curated list of options provides a good balance of fidelity and performance for a more heavenly time while you're in hell.

As such, it's important to check what tier of the Diablo 4 system requirements your PC meets before leveraging optimal settings for an fps boost. Thankfully, there are some Diablo 4 settings you can tweak for a sizeable performance uplift without greatly impacting visuals. Outside of settings considerations, we've spent hours creating lists of the best Diablo 4 classes and best Diablo 4 builds so you can start your adventure on the right foot.

Bunhouse Switch

Take the satisfying botany of Harvest Moon or Stardew Valley, strip out the complexity, and make it bunnies. That's how you get Bunhouse, a rabbit themed indie game on the Switch and PC from one-man developer Reky Studios. Designed as a relaxing game to play with up to four players, Bunhouse sees you grow plants and upgrade a greenhouse while unlocking collectable hats and mustaches for your bunny avatar. It's honestly a great concept and one you can feel a lot of love went into, but it's unfortunately marred by wonky controls, fuzzy graphics, and a few frustrating mechanics.

The bulk of Bunhouse's gameplay revolves around planting in your greenhouse, watering, and changing up the soil to ensure good growth, then selling the matured plants for Carrots. Carrots are then used to upgrade your tools, expand the greenhouse, and buy more plant seeds, though these can also be used on cosmetic additions like paint and hanging vines. While waiting for your plants to grow, you can fish for extra carrots or eventually on dig around for buried goodies. It's a relaxing loop, or it would be if not for a few consistent annoyances.

[caption id="attachment_965737" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]Bunhouse Switch Screeshot via Siliconera[/caption]

Controlling your "Bun" is simple enough, but the sluggish and imprecise movement makes navigating the world a chore. Your can speed up your Bun with a surprisingly swift and satisfying bound, but in the enclosed space of your greenhouse it will catapult you forward and often past where you want to be. Combined with finicky object targeting, simply putting your plants down in the right pot can become frustrating. Your plants can also die quite quickly if they're without water, so if you plant several at once, you'll need to be careful. You can end up fighting the controls to get them all watered before they start drooping. Pipe and sprinkler upgrades make watering large numbers of plants more manageable, but they don't make arranging or planting them any easier.

The upgrades do, however, add a nice little sense of progress. You start out filling and refilling a handful of small pots, but soon have a veritable jungle of greenery, with tools to help water, fertilize, and generally care for them. Or you can keep to a small few and work to make a deliberate design for your greenhouse layout, rather than turn it into a lucrative plant assembly line. The options are there if you wish to expand, but Bunhouse never feels like it is railroading you towards them.

You also unlock more side activities as you play, starting with the simple fishing minigame, but later getting a shovel to dig for treasure or a lawnmower for keeping your lawn in check. Each of these is charming in their own way and can often supply you with extra Carrots, but don't they provide much more than a distraction while your plants grow. You can eventually get an aquarium to store your fish or get new seeds from digging, but the focus is always on the growing, and most of the upgrades tie into that.

Graphically, Bunhouse is quite basic. That in itself isn't an awful thing, as the game exudes a low fidelity charm so it doesn't end up being distracting. What is a problem happens to be the blurry fuzziness that covers everything. Whether it's a technical issue or an artistic choice I couldn't say, but with the tiny text size and font choice it makes simply looking at the screen a pain after a short while. There is also frequent pop in for objects and backgrounds, which ends up puncturing the scenic vibes more often than not.

[caption id="attachment_965738" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]Bunhouse Switch Screeshot via Siliconera[/caption]

It's the little touches in Bunhouse that really bring the charm. You can row a boat out onto the lake whilst a friend fishes off the side, and orders of plants and equipment are delivered by a pair of birds carrying a palette between them. Even as I grew more frustrated with the controls I was often brought back by a cute detail I hadn't noticed before. There's a good selection of fur patterns and plenty of hats or mustaches to unlock, but just as often it's things like the way your Buns push a lawnmower or do yoga in the sun.

It's a shame that the experience of actually playing Bunhouse feels so off, because it's a cute game with a lovely, laid back atmosphere and it's a clear labour of love from Reky Studios. It's just that for all the charm points and rabbits in hats, the simple things can bring you right out of the experience. Fighting unwieldy controls, a molasses slow camera, and unclear visuals makes the game often frustrating to play, rather than the relaxing experience that was intended.

Bunhouse is immediately available for Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. Ports for PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S are planned, but have no release date yet.
