FF14’s new zone has a creepy backrooms void tucked just underneath it, filled with horrible milky ruins and what I deem to be far too many arms

Final Fantasy 14’s latest patch has dropped, and it’s introduced the North Horn—the next and final step in this expansion’s “exploration zone”, which has been a much-needed boon to the feeling of jolly cooperation I’m trying to get out of an MMO. This expansion is an entirely new map, filled with new Phantom Jobs to

The latest ugly-cool immersive sim is scratching my itch for new Deus Ex

There’s something defiant about the trend of deliberately ugly immersive sims. It is a statement: mechanics are king and beauty is a distraction, so here is something we scraped out of the vents on a PlayStation 1. I admire it. Not the graphics; the graphics look awful. I admire the sentiment. The latest in this

The next game on GOG’s preservation list would be your favourite ARPG if it hadn’t released the same year as Diablo 2, and it’s on sale now

Ah, NOX. Poor NOX. Westwood’s 2000 ARPG last graced our pages three years ago, as one of eight PC gaming classics that are still worth playing today, where Russell Adderson wrote that it “might have been everyone’s favorite ARPG” had it not, you know, come out in the year 2000—just a few months before Diablo

The Last of Us multiplayer mod has hit a ‘big milestone’ as it prepares for launch in September

One of the greatest tragedies in Sony’s live-service culls was the cancellation of The Last of Us Factions, the standalone sequel to the surprisingly great multiplayer mode from the original PS3 game. While Sony is still sending live-service games over the top despite the 180 in philosophy, this beloved multiplayer component is officially dead in

WoW Classic’s latest patch is terrorizing hardcore players with bugged piles of underground enemies, and it’s likely due to a decades-old quirk of Blizzard programming

If you’re a WoW Classic player, you might want to tread carefully if you’re leveling in certain parts of Kalimdor.

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

The PC is the best way to play the new Halo: Campaign Evolved remake, as well as almost every other Halo, except for one glaring flaw: no split-screen, for some reason. Xbox and PS5 get it, but PC is locked to online co-op only. Ten years ago, that’s an omission that might’ve gone unnoticed by

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. Thankfully, Pocketpair has been fairly quick in addressing bugs and persistent issues that have appeared post-launch.
