Mod activates split-screen support in Halo: Campaign Evolved PC that’s just sitting there, unused

Latest Palworld patch keeps Victor & Shadowbeak from accidentally teleporting out of existence, prevents Panthalus from breaking everything

While its 1.0 launch has delivered impressive and continued success to the tune of a few million additional players, Palworld is still a bit squirrelly—particularly when it comes to bosses, who have presented some frustrating bugginess for multiplayer users.

I love the subreddit r/whatisit for a couple of reasons. It’s a fun way to let people use their extremely niche knowledge to identify the unusual items people come across, but mainly it’s chance to see paranoid parents and insecure partners snoop around in their loved ones’ stuff and find what they always assume are
