     Greedfall 2 is a beautiful fantasy RPG reminiscent of BioWare's heyday

Playing Baldur's Gate 3 was a nice reminder of how much I enjoy tactical RPGs. While the turn-based format is always welcome, however, I still have a craving for that particular brand of real-time action where you can pause at any time to direct each member of your party. So with the Greedfall 2 launch imminent, I sat down at Gamescom 2024 to try out a section of the early game, and it instantly took me back 15 years to Dragon Age: Origins, where BioWare emphatically reminded us just how fun that classic style of CRPG can be.

Good Saturday, friends! It's finally hitting Autumn, isn't that lovely? The leaves are doing that cool visual glitch where they look nice for once. All pretty and crunchy and satisfying. It's just a shame it only lasts a week or two before turning into mulch on the pavement. Reminds me of a Regina Spektor lyric: "Leaves become most beautiful when they're about to die". And now, inevitably whatever I write below this will be a lie, because I'll actually spend my weekend listening to old Regina Spektor songs, because she's just the best.

But for now at least, let's keep up the pretense that we're not all lying through our teeth every weekend with these posts. Here's what we're all (allegedly) clicking on this weekend!

oberon vortigern nendoroid

Good Smile Company has opened up pre-orders for a Nendoroid of Oberon Vortigern/Pretender from Fate/Grand Order. Pre-orders will close on October 23, 2024.

The Oberon Vortigern/Pretender Nendoroid from Fate/Grand Order will come out in March 2025 for those in Japan and it costs 6900 JPY. Meanwhile, those in North America can expect to see him some time in Q3 2025. The Nendoroid costs $44.99 if you purchase it from there. As a reminder, Good Smile Company can only send this to Canada or the United States due to geographical licensing restrictions.

Like all other Nendoroids, Oberon will come with three face plates. There's a blank expression, a scheming one, and a dumbfounded one. You can also pose him with a pill bug optional part, and there are various hand parts as well. As this Oberon Nendoroid depicts him in his third ascension, it is a spoiler for those who have not yet finished Avalon le Fae. Granted, Lasengle was pretty open with his swimsuit design as well, so most people have seen him in his third ascension.

Oberon is a major character in the Avalon le Fae chapter in Fate/Grand Order. He was also the first playable Pretender when he debuted as a Servant back in 2021. In terms of his capabilities in battle, Oberon is one of the best Servants to pull for due to his powerful skills.

Fate/Grand Order is readily available on mobile devices and the Oberon Nendoroid is open for pre-order until October 23, 2024.

yu yu hakusho art

The official account for the Yu Yu Hakusho anime has posted some new art to commemorate autumn. It depicts the main characters walking through a park.

Yusuke and Keiko are walking at the front of the group, with Keiko talking to Yusuke about something and Yusuke not even looking over at her. A little behind them are Yukina and Hiei. In a rather rare occasion, Hiei is wearing clothes that resemble what a normal human would wear. Kuwabara is making heart eyes at Yukina behind those two while Kurama is to the side on his own. Since it's still early autumn, they're not that bundled up and the girls are wearing dresses and long skirts that look like they're for spring.

Yu Yu Hakusho is a Japanese anime and manga series by Yoshihiro Togashi, and the original series ran from 1990 to 1994. There was also an anime adaptation for it (including an OVA in 2018) and a live-action adaptation on Netflix. The series is very popular and is one of the best-selling manga series of all time.

It follows Yusuke Urameshi, a teenage delinquent who dies after saving a kid from a truck. Since the Underworld didn't expect Yusuke to do such a heroic act, they weren't prepared for him and so revive him under the caveat that he work for the Spirit World as a detective. The series starts out quite episodic, as it follows Yusuke through his various cases, before becoming more combat-focused with the Dark Tournament Arc and Chapter Black Arc.

Yu Yu Hakusho is readily available on Crunchyroll. As for the manga, Viz licensed it for English release.

fist of the north star anime

Warner Bros Japan has revealed a key visual for the new Fist of the North Star anime in production. News of the project first appeared in 2023. [Thanks, 4Gamer!]

The key visual shows protagonist Kenshiro. However, you can only see him from behind, as he's facing down a horde of enemies. This is a commemorative project to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Fist of the North Star. Warner Bros Japan plans on using the latest animation technology and make a faithful animated adaptation that'll convey the charm and awesomeness of the original story. There will be a whole new staff and cast. More information on that, as well as the streaming platforms and release dates, will appear later.

Fist of the North Star is a highly influential and popular anime and manga series. It ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 1983 to 1988, and has been collected into a total of 27 tankobon volumes. It takes place in a post-apocalyptic Earth and follows Kenshiro, a warrior who can use the Hokuto Shinken martial art style. "Omae wa mou shindeiru" or "You're already dead" is a memetic scene that most people have likely seen online, even if they don't watch or read the series.

Fist of the North Star is in production and more information on it will appear in the future.
