     How to win Solium Infernum – tips and tricks

How do you win Solium Infernum? As with most strategy games, there are myriad ways to win, and most all can be thwarted by someone else's schemes. With that in mind, it's essential to have a good game plan in mind.

You wouldn't be playing Solium Infernum if you didn't want to win, and with the Machiavellian mind of a demon, you can achieve victory by any number of deceitful tactics. Whether you overpower your opponents with brute strength, cheat and lie your way to the throne, or simply claim the city of Pandaemonium for yourself, make sure you're controlling one of the best Solium Infernum Archfiends, and have plan A and B ready to go in the strategy game. And read our Solium Infernum review to see if and how we won, and which techniques we explored playing as golden-haired fallen angel Andromalius.

     Solium Infernum review – the best new strategy game in years

Every strategy game - or RTS, city builder, 4X, or management game - eventually destabilizes and malforms into an idle repetition of clicks. In the early game, your decisions feel crucial, tactile - with meager resources and a small, incipient society under your precarious control, diplomacy, the economy, the military, production, and culture and research must all be carefully steered. Civilization 6, Age of Empires, and Cities Skylines 2, for example, are their most interesting during this initial phase. But by the midgame and certainly towards the final third, you have created - due to these games' focus on exponential, colonial growth - so many units, cities, construction projects, and frontlines that you detach from the intellectual or emotional possibilities of the strategy experience. You've disengaged from the intricacies or forensics of leadership. Your 'strategy' has blurred and bloated into an abstract, gamified generality - you don't care about your cities or your people any more, only producing more soldiers, more research, more money, or whatever resource will most expeditiously achieve a victory condition.

     Modders double Nvidia RTX 2080 VRAM, boost min FPS by 1400%

The modding community is great at finding ways to extend the life expectancy of aging tech, and recently, an optimistic group of Brazilian modders attempted an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 VRAM upgrade. Their goal was to double the VRAM to 16GB, hopefully allowing the non-super RTX 2080 to perform better in modern games.

At the time of its release, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 was among the best graphics cards available, but that was all the way back in 2018. Games are now becoming far more memory-hungry, so there's plenty of reason to hope that an RTX 2080 VRAM upgrade will greatly extend the otherwise still capable card's life, and it appears that early results show promising results.

Zero Two Darling in the Franxx Nendoroid pilot suit

There's another Studio Trigger series character getting a Nendoroid, as a new Darling in the Franxx Zero Two figure is on the way. She'll debut in Japan in August 2024 for ¥6,100, but her US release is set for Q1 2025 for $38.99.

This version of Zero Two is a little more basic than her past ones. She's wearing her pilot suit for when she heads into Strelizia. In addition to extra hands, she comes with a gun she can wield. Her three face plates, which are different from past ones released for the character, show her looking smug, smiling with her tongue licking her lips, and going berserk.

Here's how that Nendoroid will look:

As a reminder, this is now one of three different Darling in the Franxx figure options for Zero Two in this line. The first is a standard one that debuted in December 2018 and reappeared in September 2021. The second was a version of her as a child.

The Darling in the Franxx Zero Two pilot suit Nendoroid will be out in August 2024 in Japan and Q1 2025 in North America. Pre-orders end on March 28, 2024. The anime is on Crunchyroll, while Seven Seas handled the manga.

     Last Epoch PowerSlaying monsters and saving the world might just need a little bit more than a mouse click. Does Last Epoch feature controller support? Continue reading to find out! Can you play Last Epoch with controllers? Now that Last Epoch has finally left Early Access, and with many players who enjoy action role-playing games and dungeon crawlers willing to give it a try, one of the main issues that may pop out in gameplay is the full or partial support of controllers. While many play with the mouse and keyboard combination, there is a case for controllers being the best way to play this type of gaming genre. If you take a look at the official Last Epoch Steam page, you will notice that they advertise Partial Controller Support, which can sound troubling. However, after playing the game for a bit, I'm pleased to say that Last Epoch does feature controller support, and a very decent one as well.

Spellblade Instead of casting spells from afar, the Spellblade Mastery has you deal close-range magic attacks with your sharp weapons. I wouldn't call it the best, simply because the skills just aren't as powerful as the other two Masteries. Your one skill Shatter Strike can deal with a sweeping melee attack which also deals cold damage. Then there's Flame Reave, cleaving through enemies in front of you with fire damage. You can even use Enchant Weapon to enhance your weapon with elemental powers. All of this just doesn't compare to some of the devastating att...
