     Yoru is Valorant's worst agent, and even Riot can't save him

If there's one thing for sure, Valorant developer Riot knows how to make a stellar agent. All 20 Valorant agents on the protocol's payroll have unique personalities, signature abilities, and a style that puts the Kardashians to shame. But Yoru stands as a pariah, unable to conform to any role, be it duelist, initiator, or literally any other category within Riot's FPS game. Despite the developer's consistent efforts, the Radiant samurai remains on the Valorant sidelines, good for nothing.

     System Shock remake review – still just a rat in a maze

If there's one thing you should take away from this System Shock remake review, it's that this is the most playable version of the classic PC game. Both its 1994 original and the subsequent Enhanced Edition from 2015 suffer at the hands of a user interface with more in common with Excel spreadsheets than a first-person shooter. The System Shock remake from Nightdive Studios is far more game-like, but it's still perhaps a little too faithful to the source material.

As a hacker arrested for attempting to steal company secrets, you soon find yourself onboard a dilapidated space colony, festering with mutants, rogue robots, and humans turned into corrupted androids. Unfortunately, all of them are trying to kill you without provocation, presenting a slight hiccup in your interstellar journey. As it turns out, the ship is under the control of the now-sentient ship's ai: SHODAN, whose moral inhibitors you disabled not long before. As one of the last living people onboard the space colony, it's up to you to stop SHODAN's plans to exterminate the human race.

     Is Diablo 4 on Game Pass?

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. Microsoft and Activision have deals in place like the Xbox Series X and Diablo 4 bundle, but does that mean the game is coming to Game Pass?

We don't blame you for wanting to know if the upcoming RPG game is heading to Microsoft's subscription service - after all, that's at least $70 you could be saving. With the Diablo 4 release date approaching fast, you're going to want to get hands-on with the Diablo 4 classes right away to start building the best builds to reach the endgame content.

Today is another out of sync Bank Holiday for me. It's not one in Ireland, so I'm the only one rattling around in here at the moment. And it occurs to me that the vast, vast, vast majority of you will never have met me in real life. The evidence that I exist in physical space is comparatively minimal! How do you know I'm not an AI? An AI could probably replicate my writing style quite thoroughly, because there are at present many thousands of my - mine, my own - words on the internet, and they and everything else have and are being scraped by AI. This thought process is as a result of a few AI things intersecting with my workspace at once recently. Several of them are quite funny, and also not. If you think AI tools are actually good for writers then I have to assume you don't really think much about either.

Sometime before SHODAN's ethical constraints were removed and the rogue AI set about converting the people of Citadel Station into cyborgs, a researcher named Stacy Everson found a smoking gun hidden among the blinking servers of the spaceship's library. Not an assault rifle or mini-pistol, but a decades-old email chain between her TriOptimum bosses and a psychologist named Jeffrey Hammer. In the early stages of Citadel's construction, Hammer suggested that each level of the station be designed in such a way as to induce stress and anxiety, so that experts could study their impact on the human psyche during space travel.

"I always knew something was off about this place!", wrote Stacy to a colleague. "We are just rats in a maze."

The Oshi no Ko Manga Vol 2 Manga Showcases Aqua's Ambitions

With the first volume of the Oshi no Ko manga, we saw Aka Akasaka setting the stage. Aqua and Ruby, Ai Hoshino's children, definitely play major parts. But a lot of the focus is on ensuring we care as much about their idol mother Ai as they did, to help ensure we're invested in the story and things to come. With volume 2 of the Oshi no Ko manga, the kids don't need to share the spotlight anymore, and it especially starts setting the stage for Aqua to begin taking steps to find answers and work toward his new goal.

This isn't to say that Ruby doesn't also feature quite often in these chapters. Rather, it's more that Aqua is a driving force for many of the actions in the second volume of the Oshi no Ko manga. After all, it begins with him working behind the scenes to make Ruby believe she didn't make it through one idol audition. Only for it to show a page later that her brother faked it using the phone of his mentor, Director Taishi Gotanda. This moment is brief, but immediately pulls the attention away from her by showing exactly how the events of the first volume changed him irrevocably and that he's already willing to do terrible things in the name of his plans for revenge.

We immediately see a pattern as the story goes on. Ruby gets scouted by another idol group. Aqua then uses Ichigo Productions to talk to a performer who is already with that company to learn about what they're like. Ruby goes to a school catering to young adults in the entertainment industry. Even though he's smart enough to attend far better ones, he joins under their general education division. So for multiple chapters, we're seeing the efforts he's taking to try and achieve one goal, which is to keep his twin sister safe. Whether the actions are benign and underhanded, he's willing to do what it takes, helping to establish him as a character.
[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="965132" link="file"]
However, the second half of volume 2 of the Oshi no Ko manga focuses on Aqua getting closer to his more dangerous goal: finding their father. He's determined based on the events of the first volume that this person is directly tied to Ai's fate, and is going to use the entertainment industry to work out his identity. That means taking a job on the live-action adaptation of Sweet Today that doesn't have the best reputation to get close to someone who knew his mother and could provide a connection. It's fascinating to watch these calculated movements.

But even though Aqua is absolutely becoming the Oshi no Ko antihero in this volume, we're also seeing moments that show his calculating nature can be used in genuinely good ways. He gives Kana a chance to show exactly how good of an actress she is in Sweet Today. He also does so by seeing exactly what needs to be done to bring out the best in an actor who was hired for his looks and name, rather than his ability. This doesn't benefit him in any way. Rather, he does it because it would help Kana, someone he's also come to care about in his way.

In a way, the second volume of the Oshi no Ko manga is all about helping us understand Aqua. He experienced a major trauma in the first volume. This changed him and gave him a new sense of purpose for life. One is that he'll try and protect his sister Ruby and save her from Ai's fate. The other is that he'll do whatever it takes to avenge his mother. In each case, we're seeing that he'll do whatever it takes to make both of his goals happen.

Yen Press is handling the English localization of the Oshi no Ko manga. Volume 2 arrived on May 23, 2023. The anime is streaming on HIDIVE, and the original Japanese with English subtitles and an English dub are available as viewing options.

Elden Ring Gag Manga Perfectly Captures the Vibe

Even with the most serious games, there will be all sorts of memes and jokes surrounding them. They can involve absurdity of situations, play with the disconnect between an exceptionally silly kind of joke and serious situation, and highlight unintended implications that can arise from certain sorts of characters. What's wonderful about the Elden Ring: The Road to the Erdtree gag manga is that it keeps this loving tribute to the game and maintains a similar sort of dramatic artistic direction, while being completely bonkers and playing with what we know about characters. It hits these notes perfectly, without being too over-the-top.

For example, the Elden Ring manga stars a Tarnished named Aseo who would either be picked by an extremely skilled player or someone just going into the game for a laugh: The Wretch. Given the person's intelligence is quite low, even after Melina dumps points into the stat, it seems like the latter is the case. For almost the entire first volume, he's running around in a loincloth. Which means there's a running gag about where he even keeps his potion vials. As some reactions involve dashing in headfirst into danger or just dropping and preparing to die, we're definitely presented with one of the silliest protagonists who is failing upwards in the funniest ways.

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="965081" link="file"]

What helps make his portrayal even better is that Melina and Ranni are portrayed far more seriously. This isn't to say these characters can't also be funny. Both make some very good quips in the first volume. They aren't above stooping to the Tarnished's level either, though their instances are handled in a way that almost comes across as a more classy or "smarter" version of goofy responses. But their portrayals always look very refined and darkly elegant, with intelligent, reasonable dialogue. So often they react exactly the way you expect they would based on context from the game and their appearances.

However, I liked the manga best when we'd see one of its interpretations of a serious events. During these segments the characters may look as you expect, and sometimes even behave with the same sense of gravity. But then something happens to twist it all. In one chapter, Kale sends the Tarnished off to help Blaidd on a quest to find the Bloodhound Knight Darriwil. We get to see this encounter from another perspective. While it still follows some of the same beats, there are certain personality traits and motives inserted to add more levity to the situation. I really appreciated the way it all ended up handled.

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="965080" link="file"]

Especially since while that's going on, the depictions of Blaidd and Darriwil are so good. But then, that isn't isolated to just these characters. The same care is lent to everyone who appears in this first volume. Even though the Tarnished is generally the biggest "joke" here, when he isn't talking or engaging in idiocy, he can look just as refined.

In a way, reading the first volume of the Elden Ring: The Road to the Erdtree manga feels like watching someone play the game without being too serious about it. You'll see the Tarnished "die" a lot! You'll wonder about the nature of characters and think, "Yeah, I would be really suspicious about asking for their help too." You'll question people's decisions in-world and their attitude about things. You can feel the love for the source material while reading, and it makes the whole experience more enjoyable.

Elden Ring: The Road to the Erdtree volume one is now available to buy via Yen Press. You can also read it via the Famitsu special site. The game is available on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.

FFXIV Pandaemonium Anabaseios Unlock

The final set of Pandaemonium raids in FFXIV arrived via Anabaseios tier with Patch 6.4. A collection of four different raids, this offers a series of new, challenging fights for player to engage in as the Pandaemonium story wraps up in Final Fantasy XIV. In order to unlock the Anabaseios Pandaemonium raids, players will need to make sure a few prerequisites are met. Among these are completed content and required item levels.

To unlock Pandaemonium Anabaseios in FFXIV, players must have completed the Pandaemonium Abyssos raid tier. Once they have done this and are item level 615, they can dive into the raids. In order to unlock the raid series itself, they will need to accept the "Eater of Souls" quest in Labyrinthos at X:8.6, Y:27.5. To unlock the entire raid series, players will need to complete each tier. They can obtain one drop per week, which is distributed through a "roll" system, where they will need to roll against other players for the item they want.

Since this is the final raid tier Pandaemonium, this will conclude the story. Eventually, players can unlock the Savage version of the raids to obtain higher item level gear. This will appear in a future update patch.

Final Fantasy XIV is available for PC, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

FFXIV The Voidcast Dias Extreme Unlock

Final Fantasy XIV Patch 6.4 introduced another Extreme Trial, this in the form of The Voidcast Dias. Players will unlock the normal version of this Trial through completing Main Scenario Quests. It will be the last encounter of Patch 6.4 and will require players to be item level 615 at minimum. If players are not at the required level to complete The Voidcast Dias and unlock the Extreme Trial in FFXIV, they can either purchase weapons and armor from the market board or run The Aetherfront. The Aetherfront will be unlocked before The Voidcast Dias, so you can make up for any item level differences in a couple of runs.

After that, you can unlock The Voidcast Dias Extreme in FFXIV. Once you complete the Main Scenario Quests for Patch 6.4, go to Old Sharlayan and speak to The Wandering Minstrel at X:12.6,Y:14.2. You can teleport close to The Wandering Minstrel from the main Aetheryte to The Scholar's Harbor Aetheryte. Just head south and you'll see them.

[caption id="attachment_965395" align="alignnone" width="1200"]FFXIV The Voidcast Dias Extreme Unlock Screenshot by Siliconera[/caption]

However, before you can jump into The Voidcast Dias Extreme you will need to be item level 630. I found this can be achieved through purchasing gear from the market board as mentioned previously, or through previous raid tiers.

Final Fantasy XIV is immediately available on PC, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

Pocket Mirror Goldenertraum header

There's a certain je ne sais quoi about RPG Maker games--especially the horror ones--that make them incredibly memorable and impactful, and Pocket Mirror: GoldenerTraum is no exception. This is the definitive remaster of Pocket Mirror, which originally came out in 2016. Like its predecessors, such as The Witch's House, its retro appearance belies a thoughtful and meaningful message. The execution of it can be hit or miss, depending on how open you are to indirect storytelling.

Pocket Mirror: GoldenerTraum follows the story of an amnesiac girl who wakes up in a bizarre castle. As she wanders through it in search of her name, she meets a plethora of strange and hostile girls and entities. All of them seem to know more about her than she does, though none are willing to explain anything. Through these encounters, the girl discovers more about herself, her past, and just how she came to be. The story very rarely spells things out for you. In fact, some endings and routes never unravel the mystery of the protagonist's past. This adds to the overall replay value of the game, even if you're not trying to get all the endings. However, it can make the game a bizarre and surreal experience.

[caption id="attachment_965097" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]Pocket Mirror Goldenertraum Lisette Image via Siliconera[/caption]

The story starts to become clearer in Lisette and Enjel's sections, which are in the latter half of the game. This means that, until you're on your second playthrough, Fleta and Harpae's areas can feel narratively weak. At just around three hours of playtime, there's simply not enough time for all the characters and plot points to get as much development as they should. It really rewards players who explore all options and pay close attention to what's going on. Emotional moments didn't resonate with me personally, even when I knew the whole story. The protagonist's reactions to the various girls at the end of their sections made me think I should be feeling something. But it could get so difficult to connect with anyone because I wasn't always sure what something symbolized.

[caption id="attachment_965100" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]Pocket Mirror Goldenertraum Fleta Image via Siliconera[/caption]

Even if the story doesn't vibe with you, the aesthetic probably will. This game is one of the most visually pleasing games I've played in 2023. As a Sanrio fan, as well as a former Rozen Maiden and Puella Magi Madoka Magica girl, I really like the overall vibe of it. The cutesy art contrasts with the rampant violence in a super fun fashion. The sprites look amazing. The environments, which were already beautiful in 2016, are absolutely breathtaking in certain scenes. In particular, the moonlit corridor near the end of Harpae's section sticks out in my mind. In your NG+ (which is new to Pocket Mirror: GoldenerTraum), you can talk to blue pumpkins to read some developer diaries about the remaster. Even though I never played the original, it was still interesting to read about the changes.

[caption id="attachment_965096" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]Pocket Mirror Goldenertraum Aesthetic Image via Siliconera[/caption]

Pocket Mirror: GoldenerTraum is a beautiful blast to the past that hearkens back to the glory days of the indie RPG Maker scene. What makes it shine is in its cast of colorful characters and its heartwarming message. Though I commented that its vagueness is detrimental to emotionally connecting with the story, it does linger with you as you ponder upon its meaning. Video games are art, and Pocket Mirror: GoldenerTraum is one of those games that can prove it.

Pocket Mirror: GoldenerTraum is readily available on Windows PC via Steam.
