PCGamesN Saturday, October 14, 2023 11:55 AM  There's no stopping Vampire Survivors. The breakout indie game, which saw its full release in October 2022 following a period in early access, helped to define a wave of auto-attacking roguelite survival games and became one of the most popular games of the year. Since then, developer Poncle has released two pieces of DLC and is now celebrating yet another landmark achievement, as the game breaks a rather spectacular Steam milestone.

PCGamesN Saturday, October 14, 2023 10:35 AM  Finding any FPS games in this year's Steam Next Fest demos celebration has been a bit of a nightmare. It's one of the few genres that doesn't have a proper category, minus a rather vague first-person tag that applies to any videogame that uses the incredibly common perspective, and not shooters specifically. That's why we here at PCGamesN have put together the best FPS games at Steam Next Fest and beyond in October 2023, and I played eight different games that you should download while you still have the chance.

PCGamesN Saturday, October 14, 2023 10:18 AM  Of all the successful battle royale games on Steam, Naraka Bladepoint is hands-down the most stylish. Fortnite may be the most broad-reaching and Apex Legends has a delightful cast, but Naraka's fast-paced melee combat and platforming combined with its roster of gorgeous, fashionable characters make it one of the coolest games on PC period, and we've now been given a glimpse at what to expect from the imminent Naraka Bladepoint Season 10, including its next hero and a new melee weapon.

PCGamesN Saturday, October 14, 2023 7:57 AM  A rather bizarre Diablo 4 Season 2 video has been removed from Blizzard's social channels after several mistakes were spotted throughout. The developer, which is now part of Microsoft following the close of its deal with Activision Blizzard King, shared a video on Twitter/X detailing the various Season 2 changes coming with the launch of the Diablo IV Season of Blood. However, numerous inaccuracies in the video have since seen it pulled down.

PCGamesN Saturday, October 14, 2023 7:30 AM  I recently wrote a story about how Redfall has three players on Steam. Yes, really - you can't even fill a four-stack during certain times of the day because so few people are playing Arkane's vampiric FPS adventure. Yet, when I looked up the game's global search to get some extra context, Google's Keyword Planner spat out a number that genuinely shocked me. Redfall's global monthly search volume has sat at around an estimated 250,000 since July, which, while nothing compared to the likes of Diablo 4, Starfield, or fellow May release Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, is enough to make you take notice.

Just a few days after its introduction, alongside its work on the newly launched Counter-Strike 2, Valve is already busy with balance changes, releasing the first TF2 Zombie Infection patch notes with big buffs to almost every zombie class and nerfs to the human Engineer and Demoman.

PCGamesN Saturday, October 14, 2023 6:08 AM  It's been nine years between the original and rebooted Lords of the Fallen, and the soulslike game space has completely changed in that time. Not only has FromSoftware continued to refine its design up to the masterful Elden Ring, but many imitators have tried to carve out a space, and countless other games have had soulslike elements baked into their design too. The change has been so drastic that the initial player numbers for both the 2014 and 2023 versions of Lords of the Fallen have massively differing player peaks, with the newer game seeing five times the players of the original at launch.

A lot of romance manga can, well, feature a lot of drama. There'll be all sorts of rivals, characters can have misunderstandings, and it can be a lot. Sure, it gets the reader invested in a way. Especially when cliffhangers get involved. But sometimes the "will they or won't they" gets to be a lot. That's why I loved the execution of the first volume of The Ice Guy and the Cool Girl manga, as is a romance that is pleasantly free of things that can get exhausting about other series.
The Ice Guy and the Cool Girl is set in a world where supernatural beings exist. Himuro is descended from one of them. A yuki-onna is in his family, which means he also has some ice abilities influenced by his emotions. For example, if he gets nervous his whole body can become trapped in ice, and being really enthusiastic or happy about something can cause a snow storm inside or out. His coworker is Fuyutsuki, a woman who seems very cool and stoic, even though she's warm inside as well. The two are working together at the same company, and we get to watch short vignettes of their developing relationship.
What's so pleasant about The Ice Guy and the Cool Girl is that right away, it's a romance manga with very little ambiguity. We can tell Fuyutsuki cares about her coworker to some degree, even though they don't know each other terribly well yet. So much so that she notices things he likes or that bother him, and goes out of her way to make him happy or help him. Most chapters end with him blushing furiously, causing snow showers, and thinking about how wonderful she is in turn.
Likewise, Himuro is similarly considerate of and thinking of Fuyutsuki. We see him offer a gift to alleviate her potential discomfort from his condition. He pays attention to her and attempts to help do things she'd like or that would help bring them closer.
This means we have a series where the two leads are paying clear attention to each other. While they are nowhere near the "confession" stage in volume 1 of The Ice Guy and the Cool Girl, we can see the feelings develop from the first chapter to number 14. A comfort builds between the two of them, resulting in Fuyutsuki sort of teasing Himuro at one point and Himuro mustering the courage to offer an especially special gift.
It also seems like the relationship is one in which both may be helping to make each other better. Which again helps this feel like a more mature take on a romance manga. Fuyutsuki helps Himuro feel more comfortable about his condition. She also provides opportunities and motivation for him to go outside his comfort zone, in a way that might help him in general as well. With Fuyutsuki, the bonus story especially shows how she was considered "aloof" and "cool" before, which she worried distanced her, and the story shows the progression of her building a relationship and getting to be herself.
The whole execution of volume 1 of The Ice Guy and the Cool Girl makes me feel like it's a more mature romance manga. There are no rivals. There are no situations in the entire first entry that suggest drama. Characters are considerate of one another. While they aren't talking a lot yet, they're starting to communicate. It feels refreshing and I can't wait to read more.
Volume 1 of The Ice Guy and the Cool Girl manga is available via Square Enix. The anime adaptation is streaming on Crunchyroll as iThe Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Saturday, October 14, 2023 7:22 AM  Schrodinger III is a Starfield planet that is well liked due to its abundance of high level animals that won't really fight back. Many players use this planet to get a bunch of XP really fast, but you can easily miss it in-game. We'll let you know planet stats, where to find it, and how to use its XP trick below. Schrodinger III location in Starfield Screenshot: PC Invasion Screenshot: PC Invasion You can find Schrodinger III in Starfield as the third Planet in the Schrodinger star system. Schrodinger is found just under Kryx in your star map. If you are level one and want to get to Schrodinger, you need to warp to Lunara, then Alpha Marae, and then Schrodinger. That is the shortest path for low level players who just got the ship from Barret. If you are too low to fight pirates that appear, either quickly make it to the planet or quickly warp away and then back until random occurrences don't happen. Related: Best shi... |
