But the developer behind the online character shooter also warned PC players to stop using a popular piece of software, as it believes it is "cheating." |

PCGamesN Friday, February 21, 2025 7:08 PM  With its retro visuals and auto battler combat, you may perceive He is Coming to be a rather basic, simple experience that will fill your headphones with some nostalgic, old-timer sound effects as you idly watch encounters unfold. Well, you'd be wrong. The next exciting project from indie publisher Hooded Horse, He is Coming weaves in roguelite elements to create unpredictable playthroughs, 30 challenging bosses, and hundreds of items.

PCGamesN Friday, February 21, 2025 5:16 PM  More than six years on from Obsidian's last Pillars of Eternity game, Avowed has finally landed, transporting us back to Eora with your choice of a third-person or first-person perspective. Some revere it as another brilliant Obsidian RPG with scintillating combat and exploration, while others are more critical of its main storyline and forgettable companions. No matter where on that scale you sit, it certainly hasn't been the total flop that many doomsayers predicted it would be. In fact, Obsidian is rather happy with its post-launch reception, and in a new interview, the game's top dev says that the studio would "love to do more with it," which could pave the way for some Avowed DLC - and maybe even a sequel.

In a recent interview, the FFXIV developers that worked on the first part of the Echoes of Vana'diel FFXI Aliance Raid said that development for the second part of the raid series has started. [Thanks, Famitsu!]
When asked about what Warriors of Light can expect from the second part of the raid, Lead Battle Content Designer Masaki Nakagawa confirmed that development for the new Aliance Raid has already begun. Additionally, Nakawaga continued by saying that the second part of the Echoes of Vana'diel Aliance Raid in FFXIV is being done by a different team from that who worked on the first part.
Nakagawa said that this new raid is going to be full of surprises and he himself is looking forward to it, and the developer added that the new raid series is still a bit far-off. Furthermore, the scenario team said that the first part of the story in Echoes of Vana'diel mainly introduced Prishe and the world of Vana'diel, and starting from the second part players will be able to see what Prishe and Alxaal will accomplish with their journey through the world of FFXIV.
Final Fantasy XIV is available on the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and Final Fantasy XI is available on PCs.

If you've played Kingdom Come long enough, it's pretty evident that Henry is a hit with the ladies. But that's not always the case. You can romance the smooth-voiced Black Bartosch in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and here's how.
You can romance Black Bartosch during the story mission, For Victory! He's one of two romance options at the feast that takes place later in the mission. Once you're finished speaking with Hans Capon and maybe playing a bit of a prank on a nobleman at the party, you can meet Bartosch to cap off the night.
Meet with Black Bartosch at the training grounds
Before the feast, you should go and meet with Black Bartosch down by the soldiers' training grounds. If you relayed your concerns with Sir Otto von Bergow after the story mission Back in the Saddle, he would have asked Henry to meet with Bartosch for a reward at the start of the following mission, For Victory!
You can find Bartosch in the southwestern section of Trosky Castle near the training arena.
 
Normally, Bartosch is available as a trainer after completing the story mission For Whom the Bell Tolls. However, your dialogue options are limited to asking him for training or to play a game of dice. Around the time you reach For Victory, the options should be expanded.
Speak with him and check to see if you can ask about why he's at Trosky. You may need to finish all the dialogue options ahead of the feast for the romance to work. After you're done talking with him, complete whatever tasks you have remaining before the feast, or wait until evening.
How to romance Black Bartosch - Meet again during the feast
After the feast begins, look for Black Bartosch standing guard near the window behind Otto von Bergow's table.
He looks bored watching over the party, so head on over and strike up a conversation. You're given multiple dialogue options that mostly consist of small talk.
To romance Black Bartosch, pick the option: "What about the local girls?" Bartosch makes an excuse and says he'd rather have a drink with Henry instead.
Henry gets the subtext. Reply to Bartosch with "I reckon I know what you're getting at." The reply works if your Impression skill is high enough.
Bartosch invites Henry to his chambers for a "nightcap," but the latter doesn't agree right away. Pick the option "Alright, but maybe later?" Henry will return to the party, giving you a chance to wrap up any other optional tasks.
Once you're ready for that nightcap, return to Black Bartosh and pick the dialogue choice: "Shall we spend the rest of the evening alone?" Doing so ends the night, so be sure you've finished everything you want to do at the feast.
As mentioned, Black Bartosch isn't the only character you can romance in Kingdom Come 2. Be sure to check out our guides on how to romance Klara and Doubravka.

Henry finds himself pulled into a cheeky joke during a party, but his involvement takes a bit of work. During a story mission, you're tasked with finding Florian's ring and pull off a prank in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Here's how to do it with style.
During the story mission For Victory, Henry is roped into a prank initiated by a noble with a chip on his shoulder. The sub-objective is completely optional, but it's a fun distraction from the banal feast. To start, wait until the feast begins and then approach Knight Hermann Littlehead. You can find him near the end of the table opposite the one with Otto von Bergow.
Littlehead calls out to Henry as you approach. Pick the "Talk" option and then "Tell me more" when he brings up the feud with Knight Florian of Lomnitz, who's also at the party. Agree to help him with a prank. Littlehead tells Henry to find and retrieve a ring from Florian's chest, which is next to his bed "at the very top of Crone Tower."
Where to find Florian's ring at Trosky Castle
Check your map for the objective marker, which is at the southernmost tower of Trosky Castle.
To get there, exit the room via the green door on the western wall and travel along the upper pathway to the other side.
Walk into the room at the end of the path and enter the door in the far corner next to the bench.
Go up the stairs past the door and keep climbing until you reach the top of the tower. You'll know you made it when you reach an attic-like room with slanted wooden walls.
Now that you're here, be sure to take off any equipment that can make noise. This includes armor and extra clothing. Wear nothing but a shirt, pants, and shoes for this next part, as you need to be as quiet as possible.
Climb the short stairs and stop before the door. Beyond is a restricted area; you'll be asked to leave if you're caught. A guard patrols the rooms in this area, but luckily his route is easy to understand. The one you need to worry about is the guard who goes up and down the staircase past the door and stops in one of the rooms before going back down to pause and look out the window.
Note: Using a torch makes you more visible. If you're having trouble seeing, a Nighthawk potion can help.
Open the door to peer inside. You can either wait for the guard to stop at the window across the way or follow him up the stairs.
Either way, you must enter the area and climb the stairs to the left. Crouch-walk to avoid noise. Climb the second set of stairs and enter the door on the right once you reach the top.
Florian's chest is under the window near the corner of the room.
The chest is locked with an easy lock, so you should be able to crack it even if you don't have a high lockpicking skill. Get the chest open and take Florian's Silver Ring near the bottom of the list. Leave the room quickly before the guard returns. He checks Florian's room on occasion, which means you need to be out of there before he arrives.
Return to the party, where the next step begins.
How to finish the prank with Florian's ring
Go back to Littlehead at the feast and tell him you have the ring. Your new task is to hand it to the young woman to Florian's right.
She's the one wearing red at the end of the table with Otto von Bergow.
Talk with her, and Henry will mention he's there with a gift. You have three dialogue options for your reply:
If you pick the first or third option, the jig will be up and Florian challenges you to a duel. You can accept the duel if you wish. But if your Persuasion skill is high enough, you can convince Florian to cancel the duel.
To complete the objective, pick 'A shy friend'. Florian's lady will accuse him of cheating and storm off, leaving many folks confused and uncomfortable. You take a small Reputation hit, but it was all worth it.
Return to Knight Littlehead, who thanks you for being a good sport. You're rewarded with:
The prank is a nice distraction from the boorish party, but getting the Skill Book should be worth it in the end. Skill Books are hard to find and often pricey, so it's a great reward.

Your skill with a sword can take you far in your adventures as Henry, but some situations may call for a more devious approach. For that, you'll want to learn how to find and use poison in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Poison concoctions can be purchased from specific herbalists or brewed at an Alchemy Bench in Kingdom Come 2. Naturally, you'll need a recipe if you want to craft poisons. Thankfully, said herbalists do carry recipes you can purchase.
Where to find poison in Kingdom Come 2
Bottles of poison can be found occasionally in the world or purchased from certain herbalists. For example, hidden in the woods north of Trosky Castle is Herbalist Barnaby, who is more than willing to provide for your poison needs.
You can find Barnaby caring for his herb garden at his house. Ask him about trade and he'll give you a list of potions for sale. Scroll down to the Poisons section for his selection of less-than-healthy brews.
Here are the three poisons you can find, purchase, or brew in the game:
You can also purchase the recipes for Lullaby and Dollmaker poisons for a hefty fee. Read the recipes to unlock them in your alchemy book.
To the west is another herbalist who can sell you poisons and poison recipes. Head to the Nomad camp and speak with Aranka, the wife of the Voivode (camp leader). You may need to help the camp with its problems first, however.
Aranka sells both Bane and Dollmaker poison and the recipe for Bane poison. It's a good idea to visit her if you didn't get everything you need from Barnaby.
How to use poison in Kingdom Come 2
Poison concoctions can be used to poison food in Kingdom Come 2. To poison food or drink, approach a pot of stew or a barrel of wine and hold the appropriate button or key for the "Pour potion" option that appears on your HUD: the E key for PC users; the A button on the Xbox pad; or the X on a PlayStation controller. Choose the poison you want from the menu that pops up and Henry will pour it in. You can also poison the food you have in your inventory and drop it on the ground.
While it won't make Henry an unofficial Witcher, you can also apply poison to weapons in the game. To do so, look for the poison in your inventory. Highlight the poison and press the E key (or A button/X button) for "Apply." This opens up a window showing you everything that can be poisoned. Pick a weapon and press "Confirm" to apply the poison.
Poison can be useful in a multitude of ways. Applying it to your weapon can make you even deadlier during combat. You can also poison enemy camps by spiking their food. I imagine it should also work well for hunting animals or culling a dangerous wolf pack. Whatever you do, try not to eat anything you've poisoned. Poor Henry has enough on his plate already.
