The increasing popularity of the Persona series in the West has been a wonderful if slow-burning thing to behold, ramping up over the last decade to the point where Persona 5 was a Very Big Video Game Release, and re-releases of older games are now headline news.

The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall is important for any number of reasons, for its pioneering place in a series that would go on to include Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim to the fact it was a Game of the Year winner in its own right. The thing is, the game is a 3D adventure from 1996, and trying to play it in 2022 sucks.

     The new Final Fantasy XIV free login event wants you back in Eorzea

Just when you thought you were out, the latest FFXIV free login event is here to drag you back into Eorzea. The free login campaign is meant to bring lapsed subscribers back into the MMO game's fold, and, as you'd expect from the name, it costs you nothing – for a (very) limited time, at least. The latest FFXIV free login campaign went live early on June 15 and runs until June 30 at 7:59 a.m. PDT/10:59 a.m. EDT/3:59 p.m. BST, but you only actually get four days of free service. Those four days start once you log in, so if you're planning on taking advantage of the event, make sure you can get the most out of it.

     Lost Ark maintenance makes up for queue times with reward extensions

The Lost Ark maintenance for June 16 is shaping up to be a round of general fixes and not the long-awaited June update, but seeing as there's not actually much June left to go, it does at least give us a fairly solid idea of when to expect the next infusion of classes, raids, and more. Smilegate posted a brief update on the MMO game's official forums outlining what to expect and what's coming to the game once the servers go back online. The latest scheduled maintenance for Lost Ark begins June 16 at 3 a.m. EST/12 a.m. PST/8 a.m. BST and will last for four hours.

     The Genshin Impact soundtrack used to sound a lot like NieR

The main Genshin Impact soundtrack theme, Dream Aria, used to sound quite different in the action RPG's early days. Prominent Genshin leaker Ubatcha  reportedly found a version of the song present in several of the game's pre-release builds that contained lyrics. They posted it on Reddit and YouTube, though as with all leaks from the game, the pre-release theme is technically unofficial. The lyrics can't be translated, though, since it seems HoYoMix composer Yu Peng Chen opted to use a made-up language for the lyrics, similar to what we hear in NieR Automata and NieR Replicant's so-called "Chaos Language" – strings of words inspired by different existing languages but with no real meaning.

ffvii remake cloud

The FFVII Remake Twitter account posted a few pictures and comments abour how the development team created Cloud's 3D model. This is part of the account's unofficial series on what goes on behind the scenes of the game. Previously, it shared content about the Honeybee Inn, Aerith's dress, and Biggs' gun.

According to the tweet, the FFVII Remake development team created the 3D model for Cloud first. However, the model went through a very long adjustment period in order to make him look realistic. They focused on his bone structure, texture, and hair. One example noted was that the thickness of Cloud's arms are different in the final product from the teaser trailer.

As well, scratches on his equipment are there for narrative purposes. It is so Cloud looks more like a seasoned Soldier and mercenary when his uniform and Buster Sword are not in perfect condition. A lot of the pictures focus on these imperfections, as you can see scratches on his armor and weapon. In one of them, there is a close-up of Cloud's arm and you can even see his veins underneath the skin.

Final Fantasy VII Remake is available for the PlayStation 4. Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is available on the PlayStation 5 and Windows PC.

     Shredder's Revenge Review 1Growing up, Turtles in Time was easily one of my favorite games. I played it again and again on the SNES. I played it in the arcade when I could. And I even repeatedly played the sort-of inferior Sega Genesis semi-port, The Hyperstone Heist. Over the years, it has remained an important part of my gaming memories. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge succeeds because it's perfectly aware of that legacy. The game is undoubtedly light on content considering its price tag. But getting what amounts to a full-fledged Turtles in Time sequel — that actually improves upon its predecessor — makes the game a welcome treat. Storywise, Shredder's Revenge doesn't try and go far beyond Konami's TMNT beat 'em ups. Shredder and his lackeys are threatening to give the Statue of Liberty an evil makeover. The Turtles, along with Splinter and April O'Neil, set out to stop him. Naturally, this sees them repeatedly run into major names from...
