Take the lead singer of an LA punk band who made his way to the other wise peaceful region of Yosemite National Park and allegedly spent the day tearing shit up in a very un-punk way.

     FF14 director Naoki Yoshida is

The FF14 Dawntrail story puts the focus on newer characters as it attempts to reset the balance of power after Endwalker, placing its beloved Scions into more background roles. Most of the MMORPG's beloved cast members have already had their moment to shine, and so at Gamescom 2024 I ask game director Naoki Yoshida, best known as 'Yoshi-P,' whether he sees the likes of Thancred, Urianger, and the twins getting all-new story arcs in the future or if he's happy to let them be.

     Free Monopoly Go dice links September 2024

September 1, 2024: We've added two new Monopoly Go dice links for free dice rolls.

How can I get Monopoly Go free dice links? The household favorite board game has been reimagined as a free-to-play app on smartphones, allowing everyone to experience the thrills of Monopoly on practically any device. Everything that makes the board game special is here in Monopoly Go, so you'll be collecting properties and building hotels as you go around the board, and there are a variety of multiplayer minigames to get through along the way.

There are ways to earn additional dice rolls, including logging into the game every day to collect daily bonuses, progressing further in the game, and inviting friends to try Monopoly Go. While you can also spend real money to unlock more dice rolls, you may want to give our list of Monopoly Go dice links a try instead, especially if you're waiting for the next Monopoly Go Golden Blitz event.

Review: WitchSpring R Can Be Both Delightful and Deep

The WitchSpring games always surprise me. The blend of character training, a relaxed pace, and shockingly deep lore tend to enthrall me. WitchSpring R, a major remake of the original game, fleshes out the original game even further while ensuring this version of the game looks and plays even more smoothly than the original.

Pieberry is a young woman and a witch. She doesn't remember much about herself or her past! She knows she loves pies and berries, hence the name she gave herself. She also knows she's pretty much stuck in the forest where she lives, due to a golem and all. However, there's more to her, and the world around her, than she realizes. And since humans have been on a crusade against witches ever since, she'll soon find herself leaving her safe space and going to the Springs around Vavelia, reviving them and learning who she is.

Now, as I mentioned earlier, WitchSpring R ends up being quite a dramatic and dark game. The witch hunts are no joke. Bad things happen to good people. There are times we see characters we care about broken. But at the same time, it's also a very touching story! There are happy moments scattered throughout, and the nature of it means plenty of times it does feel downright cozy.  Pieberry herself is a fun, though perhaps a bit too naive, character. This version of the game and story stands out due to the extra attention given to supporting cast members. However, while I do appreciate the larger plot beats and lore surrounding witches and the world, there are some moments that feel a little… dumb. Like situations might be too obvious or ridiculous, spoilers aside. 

Like all other WitchSpring entries, WitchSpring R involves building up Pieberry's magical repertoire via getting new spells, acquiring pets to help in and out of battles, taking part in turn-based fights, crafting, and training the witch. The general gameplay loop doesn't change all that much between the original game and remaster. While the original version of this game also involved a time-limit, it takes a queue from other games and the Atelier series for a more relaxed approach that allows Pieberry to complete her objectives at your leisure. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIXI_Dla3MA

These are all introduced in a gradual way, to help you ease into the new responsibilities. So much so that it might feel a little overbearing or like your hand is being held too tightly. Even though you can right away see certain areas and opportunities to explore, Kiwiwalks determines when you get to encounter new items, gain access to new areas, and learn how to train or use certain features. While in a way, it makes sense since they show up when the story demands Pieberry need them. However, I wish it got through these elements a bit quicker so we could really let loose.

Which is funny, because WitchSpring R is good at respecting your time in other ways. Anti-grinding features such as easily avoidable enemies, frequently replenished material sources, and the game outright telling you that you won't get EXP for redoing enemy encounters keeps you from wasting time going through certain routines. I honestly felt like I was strong enough to handle anything even when I raced through it for the sake of the review. I'd say in general the pacing is fine, once the tutorials are all done. It's just the introduction and certain moments later on that get a bit bogged down, especially when it feels like there's limited freedom when it comes to what you can do "next." 

I honestly wouldn't have minded more excuses to fight. The battle system and mechanics surrounding it are quite fun. When training Pieberry through scheduled classes, you determine her specializations. So you could make her a physical bruiser or lean heavy into magic. Having pets act as additional party members and traversal methods makes them feel more important, especially since you can bond with them with food to make them more powerful. The battle system clearly telegraphs the turn order, to allow you to plot things out and keep situations from getting overwhelming. Using magic first can strengthen and affect physical attacks after. Not to mention you can trigger bonus hits. Also, the magic system really lets you customize Pieberry's spells via choosing the elements like the type of slab and magic circle to determine the effects, MP cost, critical hit chances, boosts, and power. If you want to go overboard making her a major powerhouse, you can! But also, the nature of it means you could take a more relaxed approach and still see her succeed.

But what makes WitchSpring R feel so much more worthwhile is how it differs from that original mobile release. The graphics, the character designs, the story, the overworld… it all is so much grander than it was before. It's such a substantial series of changes that it feels like a new, fresh game that just so happened to pull from the ideas and concepts in the original. The systems and mechanics feel much stronger, even though you can see the inspirations and roots from that first release.

While I played it on the Switch and loved it there, I did experience one odd issue with Pieberry herself in the first few hours. This happened during the first Pudding Cave dungeon, after I unlocked the teleportation function there. After going through the tutorial and using it to teleport out to restock potions, I headed back in and teleported to the newly unlocked point. Even though it seemed to have worked and the game took me to the new area, I didn't see her character model. Quitting, reloading, and retrying fixed it, and I didn't encounter the problem again. So it is possible by the time you read this review, a patch rectified whatever that issue was and you won't have to deal with it.

WitchSpring R feels like it is the comfort food of JRPGs. It isn't too taxing. There are some typical JRPG story elements. Its turn-based battle system is sound. The story starts a bit slow, due to a tutorial holding your hand through every gameplay element. However, there's some fun stuff happening with the lore and Pieberry's story can be entertaining.

WitchSpring R is available on the Switch, PS5, and PC. An Xbox One version is in development.

Tiger Won't Eat the Dragon Yet Volume 2 Gets More Into Lore

The Tiger Won't Eat the Dragon Yet is an interesting manga series, given it is filled with humans who can shape-shift into animal counterparts and a legend that involves the benefits of eating dragons. Much of the first volume focuses on the developing relationship between Hekidou the dragon and the white tiger Hakurei. With the second, we're learning more about these legends and how much truth there is to them, especially since Hachi Inaba introduces a second dragon named Shinsui and her avian companions Kokuran and Misumi. It ends up being fascinating to compare the two dragons, as well as find out more truths about exactly how much of the legend is real.

Editor's Note: There are some mild spoilers for the first half of volume 2 of The Tiger Won't Eat the Dragon Yet manga below.

Right away, The Tiger Won't Eat the Dragon Yet volume 2 starts with the other dragon Hekidou is fleeing from and doesn't want to meet, with the introduction revealing she travels alongside sibling birds named Kokuran and Misumi. We get a better impression of how mercurial Shinsui from the outset, based on her interactions with the snake that Hekidou and Hakurei dealt with at the end of the previous volume. In a flashback, we see how the temperaments of the two dragons compared. It's then that Misumi and Kokuran appear. While this interlude is brief, it immediately sets the tone for the relationship. 

While the Hakurei and Hekidou get along well, are comfortable with one another, and there's clear affection, there's a marked detachment between Shinsui and the two birds. Kokuran and Misumi are deferential to her, referring to her with an honorific "lady." There's a hesitation in Misumi's reply, perhaps out of fear. It's clearly a relationship in which the dragon is the "superior" and the siblings are under her in some sort of forced commitment, rather than the natural, affectionate, and mutually beneficial partnership between the other duo.

From there, we get more valuable insights into both the lore tied to dragons and interactions between them and other species. Hakurei and Hekidou decide to head off on a journey to find a way to prolong her life. Since he's a long-lived species, he's already older than he looks and will outlive her. This brings them to a group of monkeys. 

This leads to the first hint that something is awry and about the myth regarding dragons. From what the head monkey they speak to says, eating a dragon's heart doesn't make the person who ate it immortal. There are multiple examples in which doing so seemed to kill whoever consumed it, with the victims appeared to have been poisoned. Of course, there's no concrete evidence just yet. The monkey is going off of hearsay. However, it's the first account that seems to involve actual examples, rather than rumors or urban legends.

For the sake of avoiding spoilers, I'll avoid heading further into the revelations found in volume 2, but this latest entry in The Tiger Won't Eat the Dragon Yet offers many insights into the nature of dragons in the manga. The segments involving Hekidou and Shinsui offer us an opportunity to see how dragon dispositions can vary among individuals, as well as how they may treat those around them. We're also starting to really see what happens to people who do dare to eat a dragon, and the contradictions between myths and reality. It's fascinating and left me wondering if there really is some way to grant Hakurei a longer life after all.

Volumes 1 and 2 of The Tiger Won't Eat the Dragon Yet manga are available via Yen Press, and there's no release window for the third volume yet. The series is still running in Japan.

Even though I'm still a Sprout 400 hours in, I know Final Fantasy 14 would benefit from more quality-of-life features.

     Snag Yakuza's Kiryu arc for an astonishingly low price if you're quick

What's the best story in gaming? The Witcher, Metal Gear Solid, Baldur's Gate, Mass Effect, Red Dead Redemption - the list goes on, and you'll find different answers at every turn. But for me, it's tough to top the Yakuza games. The series has adopted the Japanese 'Like a Dragon' moniker since Yakuza 7, but prior to that we got a full seven-game series (including the masterful Yakuza 0) covering the extensive career of Kazuma Kiryu, one of the most eminently lovable protagonists in anything. If you've yet to experience his tale, now is the perfect time, as you can grab the full thing at a huge discount if you're fast.

Of all the many new PC games I saw at Gamescom 2024, Ambulance Life: A Paramedic Simulator is among those that surprised me most. Following on from developer Aesir Interactive's Police Simulator, the upcoming simulation game shifts across to another essential emergency service - the rapid response life of an ambulance paramedic. You're in charge of answering calls, diagnosing the situation, providing initial treatment, and making sure to get the patient back to hospital in time to give them the best chance of survival, and it's a remarkably compelling experience, especially as the stakes rack up.

I've been enamored with Avowed ever since developer Obsidian released its first piece of key art. Adorned in swatches of color that wouldn't be out of place on my favorite tattoo artist's Instagram page, The Outer Worlds studio's take on medieval tales ditches the distilled gray and steel tones of Skyrim for something altogether different.

Square Enix and Hyte announced that the company's two FFXIV PC cases based on the Dawntrail Pictomancer and Viper jobs showed up at PAX West 2024. Both were at the Square Enix booth at the event. There's no word on a release date for them yet.

Both the FFXIV Pictomancer and Viper PC cases use the Hyte Y40 model. Each one features official art of the classes on both the front and side panels. The front panel also features the Dawntrail expansion logo across the bottom. We've seen both of the designs on the front of the cases in the Illustrations section of the Media section on the official site before.

Here's the official announcement showing off both of the designs:

Eiyuden Chronicle Marisa DLC Delayed With No New Release Date

Rabbit and Bear took to Kickstarter to announce that the Eiyuden Chronicle Marisa DLC scenario, which originally had an August 2024 launch window, is delayed. There is no new release date or window for it, which means that the roadmap released in May 2024 is now outdated.

The developer noted this wasn't due to actual work being done on the DLC. Instead, it cited a distribution issue as the cause for the add-on not being released as expected. It noted that people who crowdfunded Eiyuden Chronicle would be getting the Marisa DLC story for free. So in order to get and send those codes, it was delayed for everyone. The announcement also noted these codes will be sent out before a "general release." 

There are three campaigns total planned. The first is Marisa's. Her tale will be followed by one looking at Seign's side of the story. His campaign initially had a September 2024 launch window. After that, the Elden Magicks Markus campaign that won a vote from players will appear. We'll have to wait and see if it appears in October 2024 as initially planned, following this latest delay.

Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is available on the Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC, and there's no updated release window for the delayed Marisa DLC campaign.

Final Fantasy XIV Chat Bubble, Strategy Board Features Being Tested

During the PAX West 2024 Final Fantasy XIV "Putting the 'U' in UI" panel, chat bubble and Strategy Board features were teased. Global Community Producer Toshio "Foxclon" Murouchi and Lead UI Designer Kei Odagiri showed first screenshots of both in the testing phase. The former would offer an additional communication option, while the later would help with strategizing for fights.

The first screenshot showed three different chat bubble examples in Final Fantasy XIV. So in addition to seeing the messages in chat in the lower right bottom of the screen, you would see chat bubbles over every player's head. Odagiri mentioned that Director and Producer Naoki Yoshida had been hinting at the possibility of this feature appearing in-game prior to this latest reveal, but also said that there are still "hurdles" before it could show up.

As for the Strategy Board Final Fantasy XIV screenshot, it is confirmed as an upcoming 7.X patch update. Once in-game, people can arrange icons and brainstorm strategies for certain fights and raids on a map. The image in particular showed the "editing" screen, which allows people to arrange icons, AOE attacks, and other planning icons.

Here are both of those screenshots. Odagiri noted the localized version of the Strategy Board one didn't show up, as it was added at the last minute.

You can watch the full Final Fantasy XIV panel below, with the portion discussing the possible chat bubble addition comes up at the 47 minute mark and the White Board Editing after it.

New The Legend of Zelda Timeline Is at Nintendo Live 2024

Nintendo Live is being held in Sydney, Australia between August 31, 2024 and September 1, 2024, and a newly updated The Legend of Zelda timeline appeared going over the series' in-game history. As pointed out by  Vooks, it changes the position of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. [Thanks, Vooks and Wario64!]

The change this time is that Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are now in their own segregated area outside of the existing The Legend of Zelda games in this new timeline. They both appear in a section behind "The Hero is Triumphant" timeline in the lower half of the Nintendo infographic, but are cordoned off from the games in the Child Era and Adult Era timelines. 

Here's the tweet from Wario64 showing the new The Legend of Zelda History and timeline.

https://twitter.com/Wario64/status/1829703963794624594

All of the other games remain in their existing spots in the timeline. So The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword remains the very first entry, which is followed by The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. After Ocarina of Time, the timeline splits into "The Hero is Defeated" and "The Hero is Triumphant" branches. "The Hero is Triumphant" part of the timeline then further splits into the Child Era and Adult Era.

The next The Legend of Zelda game, which is Echoes of Wisdom, doesn't appear on the board. This means following its September 2024 release, we will likely see the timeline updated again.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will come to the Nintendo Switch on September 26, 2024.
