While at the Worlds 2024 Grand Final, Riot co-founder and chief product officer Marc Merrill finally gave us something. It's a tad cryptic, but after hearing that the MMO was being "reset" we've had very little to go on since. So if you'd been worried about the future of the LoL MMO, don't be, because it's going well.

Siliconera Sunday, November 3, 2024 3:00 PM What's the Most Underrated Farming Sim or Cozy Game?       Cozy games are some of the best video games to play right now across all platforms. Whether it is a large budget experience like Animal Crossing: New Horizons or a smaller title like Moonstone Island, cozy games are the place to be. But what about the forgotten or misunderstood farming sims and cozy games? This is what we have to say about the most underrated farming sim and cozy game of all time. Image via NPC Studio Siliconera Speaks Up: Most Underrated Farming Sim and Cozy Game Setting aside the (deserved) fan favorites like Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing, and Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town, more people need to check out Trio of Towns and Harvestella. Trio of Towns is up there as the best in its series for me, with such a diverse landscape to explore, varying economies, and so many excellent characters. Meanwhile, Harvestella didn't get nearly the attention it deserved. It truly feels like Final Fantasy-meets-Story of Seasons in all the right ways. It was rough around the edges, especially on the Switch performance-wise, but the mix of story, dungeon-crawling, job classes, and farming could easily pave the way for a fantastic sequel. Finally, my last pick for this category is a much more recent entry. Ova Magica is an indie game that impressed me upon its release earlier this year. It certainly wears its inspirations on its sleeves, but I appreciate that. The charm of farming sim-meets-Pokemon works surprisingly well. Every aspect of the title, from the farming to romance to turn-based battles are terrific. It fares much better than other similar attempts to marry these genres in the past. It is only a shame it is in early access for now. The content is a bit too light at this time. -- Cody I wasn't immediately intrigued by Fields of Mistria, but after playing it I was really impressed by how quickly and unobtrusively it established the character of its townspeople. I also second Harvestella. That story didn't quite go where I was expecting but I loved it and would love to see more iterations on its ideas. -- Elliot The post What's the Most Underrated Farming Sim or Cozy Game? appeared first on Siliconera.

And why on Earth does everyone keep going crazy over phases of the Moon? Until we get our hands on the next Grand Theft Auto I'm afraid a lot of these questions will go unanswered.

It has all the satisfying ship-building elements I love from games like No Man's Sky and Starfield. But instead of forcing me to pootle around the stars myself, it lets me jump from location to location, engaging in interesting decision making and tactical combat reminiscent of the likes of the fantastic FTL.

PCGamesN Sunday, November 3, 2024 10:30 AM Black Ops 6's weirdest level is the reason I want to play Call of Duty       For me, videogames are about escaping into fantasy. I want to dive into sprawling realms as a pretty elven assassin or prowl the plains of Diablo 4's Sanctuary in search of Prime Evils and demonic entities. While I had a soft spot for life games like The Sims as a kid, I've never really cared for anything set in a recognizable version of our own world. Call of Duty has always fallen into that same category, not helped by my degrees in genocide history and war studies. I've never quite been able to divorce my logical mind from the fact that CoD is, indeed, a fictional videogame with a historical setting, versus a historical videogame with fictionalized elements. So while Black Ops 6's '90s backdrop piqued my interest, I was pretty happy to sit it out.

Firelink Shrine, Roundtable Hold, The Nexus, and Hunter's Dream all ooze atmosphere, and provide brief respite between getting your head stomped. My favorite has always been Dark Souls 2's Majula, though. The quaint village is bathed in calm sunlight, punctuated by sparse piano notes. It's a far cry from the challenges that await you, and becomes more welcoming each time you return. If you wish Elden Ring's Roundtable Hold was more like Majula, have I got just the mod for you.

As developer Eremite Games tests a new biome coming with the next update, you can hop into the experimental branch right now to try it out and offer feedback on how it works.

The 2006 original remains a classic of the genre, and one of the reasons it still stands out today is its distinctive class system, as you fuse two 'masteries' to create a huge number of potential combinations. Grimlore Games is building on this system for the sequel, and in a new blog post it explains exactly what to expect from Titan Quest 2 masteries when the early access launch arrives.

Two decades ago the G-Man left us with one of the biggest cliffhangers of all time, and we've been waiting for what comes next ever since. Sure, Half-Life Alyx played with our expectations, but the third game is still seemingly a twinkle in the corner of Valve's eye. Since Gordon Freeman's last adventure, the Steam maker has given us Counter-Strike 2, Deadlock, and even some huge Team Fortress 2 updates. Half-Life 3, by comparison, couldn't be more distant. That's until Project Borealis. This fan-made interpretation of what the Valve sequel could be recently showed new signs of life, and now it's closer than ever before.

After a glitch "occasionally limited" the amount of double XP awarded to some players, Treyarch has extended the 2XP offering.

Siliconera Sunday, November 3, 2024 9:00 AM Review: Potionomics: Masterwork Edition Feels Like a Better Deal       I love it when a game heads to a new platform and it turns out that's the best version you can get. That's the situation with Potionomics: Masterwork Edition, and I'm so glad the Switch version is the one I ended up beating. The experience feels more stronger, and choosing the new difficulty helps eliminate stress associated with the balancing and scheduling decisions in the original game if someone felt that got in the way of anyone's initial enjoyment. Potionomics: Masterwork Edition begins with Sylvia inheriting her dilapidated and in-debt uncle's potion shop in Rafta. That and a suspicious owl that happens to be living there that was allegedly Oswald's partner. Though she doesn't have her potion license yet, she's quickly thrust into the responsibilities of running the shop and entering tournaments to repair the owed money so she can stay in Rafta running the business. Oh, and maybe she also gets to romance the other people living there.  Image via XSEED I will say that while I appreciate the concept behind Potionomics: Masterwork Edition's story and like the character designs a lot, I'm not a big fan of the personalities. At least, initially. While there is depth to some of these characters, a lot of them involve these overly exaggerated personality traits that are very in-your-face. Considering a big part of the game is tied to the relationship building, I found the over-the-top nature of many of these folks to be a turn-off. But this is a very personal opinion, and some people might be okay with it given the general tone of the narrative. Though tone is an important point in general for Potionomics: Masterwork Edition, because going with the standard difficulty or harder one does bring up the dissonance again. This is an entertaining deckbuilder and potion-crafting simulator. Things start off fairly manageable. You need to brew potions, with certain specific ones needed for regular competitions to repay the loan your uncle took. That means getting ingredients from individuals in town, which you can also befriend and romance.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8YM8Iz-2uM&ab_channel=XSEEDgames You place those potions in the shop, then open to engage in the haggling battles with cards to get customers interested and drive up the price. However, customers' actions during these phases can stress you out, which can carry over and negatively affect future negotiations. So as you meet and get to know people, as well as progress the campaign, you earn cards. These can be added to your deck to shape your tactics and approach. So when you play three each turn, you can focus on buffs, debuffs, immediate assaults, or defense to ensure you maintain customer patience and maximize encounters. Since each day has multiple time period opportunities for brewing and vending, so you can have up to three packed into a single day.  The thing is that someone's opinion on said difficulty and pacing can vary. On the standard difficulty or higher, it very quickly gets stressful. There are so many materials you need, so little time between tournaments, and the types of demands that make the game feel downright stressful. People also might get put off by the difficulty spikes that come up when the tournaments happen, as the contents involving specific potions are quite demanding. So going as-is, with the experience Voracious Games intended it to be, might be a lot. Image via XSEED The good news is, Voracious Games took player feedback from the PC version of the game into account for Potionomics: Masterwork Edition. There are two notable changes for this release, and one addresses that disparity between the often bright, jovial, and optimistic tone and time-sensitive, sometimes punishing schedule. One pertains to difficulty. As I established, that can ramp up at certain points over the course of the game. When you start out, you can select a new "Cozy" option.  "Cozy" means you can visit people without wasting your in-game time, which is really efficient for shop management. The boss fights are easier (in a good and rebalanced way) as well. To be honest, I usually didn't mind the tournaments in the original game, but the timing is a real game-changer here. So I ended up going with that difficulty and not looking back, because it does make it easier to enjoy the relationship-building elements here. I would suggest trying normal difficulty first, then rolling back to Cozy if that doesn't work for you. Image via XSEED There is also an endless mode in Potionomics: Masterwork Edition. Which, again, is appreciated. I honestly enjoyed the deck-building and haggling card game most out of all the gameplay mechanics at work here. So… that basically let me do more of that? I really appreciated getting to change up and experiment with strategies in a way I couldn't when I was more focused on completing goals in the campaign. It really allows you to appreciate the good parts of the game in a relaxed way. Potionomics: Masterwork Edition makes me feel like someone coming to the Switch version is immediately getting access to the best version of the game. While there are some minor balancing issues remaining and someone might be as hit-or-miss on characters as I was, the changes and additions based on player feedback result in a markedly improved experience. It really makes it easier to appreciate Sylvia's adventures in capitalism. Potionomics: Masterwork Edition is available on the Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X, and the original version with new updates is on the PC.

Siliconera Saturday, November 2, 2024 6:45 PM Danganronpa V3's Controversial Ending Shouldn't Stop New Games       A long time has passed since a new mainline Danganronpa game has been released. Sadly, it doesn't look like one is happening anytime soon, either. With upcoming, similar titles from creator Kazutaka Kodaka like The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy on the horizon, it appears this series is indefinitely on hold. This is likely due to a number of factors, such as the infamous Danganronpa V3 ending, which shouldn't stop new Danganronpa games. I will try my best to avoid spoilers, but it is pretty much inevitable. As such, if you have yet to finish Danganronpa V3, this is your chance to walk away and come back later. Still here? Well, the ending is controversial for a reason. It upends this entire series in more ways than one, but namely because of the many lies. Image via Spike Chunsoft As we find out, pretty much everything we knew about the series was a blatant lie or at least somewhat fake. The characters existed and participated in these games, but with fake personas. It is an intriguing commentary on the fans and the series, and one I've grown to appreciate in the years since. But the ending seemed to put a cap on the series. After all, what is the point now that we know the truth? But I beg to differ. I feel like this series ended just as it was getting started. V3, and even the second game before it, did a lot to deconstruct and surprise players. Characters you might expect to be evil died while the more innocent "main characters" turned out to be killers. Despite these wonderful twists, such as the Kaede and Chiaki ones, there was still so much room for new turns. For instance, what if a new game didn't go the whole multiple survivors route? It would be a shock to have only the protagonist survive or, dare I say it, finish the final case by trying to get away with murder. This would be a fascinating twist on the courtroom sessions. Alternatively, what about a game with multiple endings? Here, you could make choices that determine what conclusion you get. Maybe befriending a possible killer in one route results in multiple survivors, while alienating that Nagito or Ouma-like person results in them pinning a murder on you and walking away as the winner. Or they could even finish you off as their victim. Image via Spike Chunsoft These are just a few options for a new Danganronpa. I'm not even bringing up the amazing character options. Think of all the Ultimates we haven't seen yet. There is almost limitless potential for where the series goes next. In fact, I think it is better to look at the V3 ending this way. For one, Spike Chunsoft and Kodaka (or a new team) could opt for a fresh reboot. Scratch the entire ending and start over with a new class and no expectations. Or, heck, set it in a new universe and move on to Ultimate university students. Another option would be to fill in the gaps between games. Spoiler warning once more, but we now know the most recent game is actually the 53rd game in the universe. That means there are about 50 different games we haven't played yet. That is an unbelievable amount of content to go back and look at. Could we see Rantaro's game, for example? Or just a fresh case without any strings attached. This would even be the chance for them to go ahead and call a game Danganronpa 4 and show the fourth game. Finally, there is the big one. What if we just got a direct sequel to Danganronpa V3? I know that sounds ridiculous with the ending, but there is nothing to hide now. The games can continue onward as they were. This time, though, we know the truth about the matter. Image via Spike Chunsoft This route gives a lot of possibilities for how Spike can play with the characters and story. We can have more deranged students, such as someone who keeps switching between their old personality and their new, fake one. We could get to know the people behind the actual broadcasted game, not the weird Junko despair mess. If anything, this gives the team a chance to avoid the pitfalls of the original trilogy. Instead of connecting all three games like before, just give us standalone experiences that are one and done death games. This leaves the room open for anything to happen. Whatever the case is, I sincerely Danganronpa V3 isn't the ending for this series and we do get new Danganronpa games at some point. Master Detective Archives: Rain Code was a solid distraction in 2023, but it fell just a tad short of what I want to see. And then there is The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. After how much I hated the unnecessary battles in a story-driven game like 13 Sentinels, I expect this to be a similar situation. These fun diversions are exciting to try out, but I hope Kodaka gives us a new Danganronpa game sooner rather than later. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is available for Android, iOS, Nintendo Switch, PS4, Vita, Xbox One, and PC.
