I mean it this time.” These are the words thatApex Legendsnarrative lead Ashley Reed (no relation to Ash) said to meall the way back in Augustwhen hinting at the narrative beats to come over Seasons 18 and 19. With the Kill Code arc now complete, we can look back and pick through the corpses to examine exactly what she meant....
Baldur’s Gate 3players say that theMinthararomance is broken, even after thelatest patch, making it so the relationship can end for seemingly no reason whatsoever. In other words, it makes it soyou massacred a camp full of tieflings for nothing, as everyone’s favourite drow wants nothing to do with players anymore. The bug appears to kick in during Act 3, with one player documenting that the relationship came to an end as soon as Minthara declared her love for their character....
Marvel Snapis filled with unique cards that alter the game, either by modifying the game board or changing your deck. Blob leans towards the latter, eating your entire deck and gaining the power of all the cards eaten. Do keep in mind that Blob gains their base power, not their abilities, so cards like Darkhawk will not give Blob any power. Speaking of Darkhawk, Blob works as a direct counter to him, since no matter how many rocks they send your way, Blob will eat them all....

It’s the thrill of turning a rickety old jalopy into a sleek, unstoppable machine, one resource cube at a time. But with so many titles revving their engines on the tabletop track, how do you know which ones are the Bugattis, and which are just the broken-down Beetles?...

When you’re building a new PC, your processor is among your most expensive parts. That makes it critical to know that you’re getting a processor worth having. But how can you pick with so many excellent options available? One issue that many people have is figuring out the different models, numbers, and identifiers among popular brands. In the CPU industry, AMD and Intel have amassed the majority of the market.

There are many different styles of DMing inDungeons & Dragons, but I aim for total control as much as possible. It’s not to hog the limelight, but in order to cast a brighter spotlight on the players. Knowing every detail of the world I have built, the branching pathways, where it leads next, and who in town knows what about what gives me the confidence to improv, to let the party go wherever without railroading, and to make room for the outlandish decisions my party makes....
Rocket Racing is one of the most recent additions to theFortniteecosystem of games. It smartly utilizes the blueprints created byRocket Leagueand adapts them into a package that works wonderfully as an arcade racer. It was made by the developers of RL and features cars that are shared between the two games, even if they weren’t in RL previously (we’ll get to that later). The game released with six car bodies in total, which are cosmetic only and give you no competitive advantage at all in the game....
