It Happened To Me: I Messed Up My Baldur's Gate 3 Cross Saves

The Xbox release of Baldur’s Gate 3 has beennotoriously buggy, to the point where I wasputting off playing on console at all to avoid losing my save files. I gave in though, starting a new campaign with my partner for the new year, and I haven’t had issues with those save files so far – though I have a feeling that just by saying this, I may have cursed myself. God, I hope not....

Jaheira Was Almost A Romance Option In Baldur's Gate 3

Baldur’s Gate 3almost had another romance option: Jaheira. While she doesn’t make any advances towards players in the game, it turns out that the Harper was planned to be one of the many campmates that we could hook up with. This comes from an interview withIGN, where Baldur’s Gate 3 director Swen Vincke admits that Jaheira was discussed as a potential romance option. However, he says the team “ran out of time” to make this happen, leaving Jaheira (presumably) single after the events of the third game....

Palworld Could Be The Best Pokemon In Years

I fell out of love withPokemonten years ago when X and Y launched, exhausted by how each new release was painfully similar to the last, with the few noteworthy implements being little more than gimmicks. The novelty has run dry even as Pokemon branches out and tries new things, as with Scarlet & Violet’s more open world and Arceus’ real-time catching. There are so many more inventive and in-depth turn-based RPGs out there that, no matter the appeal of building up a bestiary of whacky creatures, I can’t bear the formula at its centre....

Reactor Collectible Guide: Modern Warfare 3

Quick Links Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3(2023) features a handful of open combat missions, campaign levels that replace scripted set pieces for more open-ended objectives and collectible items. It plays similarly to MW2’s DMZ mode or Warzone, although the addition of armor plates and killstreaks makes them considerably easier than your average CoD level, especially on Veteran difficulty. Reactor is the second open combat mission in the campaign and arguably the shortest of the bunch....

Remnant 2's First DLC Takes Us Back To Losomn

It feels as though we’ve barely had time to defeat the Root and uncover all of Remnant 2’s secrets, and it’s already time for a new adventure.
