However, this is the first indication that he will even appear in the upcoming game, which sparks some wild speculations among fans. In an interview with Fall Damage, Cockle confirmed Geralt’s involvement in Polaris but withheld any specifics. He added, “I can not say anything about [Polaris].”…

The community is reacting negatively to Arrowhead Game Studios, the developer of Helldivers 2, for nerfing fire damage weapons just days before the release of Freedom’s Flame, a premium war bond with a pyromaniac theme. This week’s Escalation of Freedom update brought balance modifications, including several adjustments to the fire damage mechanism of the game to make flame-spewing weaponry act “more realistically.” Social media has been used by some irate community members to voice their displeasure about the update’s drastic nerfing of fire-based weapons like the flamethrower, which was before seen to be a powerful countermeasure against armored determined charges.…

Helldivers 2 has committed to maintaining player engagement, which appears to be working so far. It is time for their major initial expansion now. Level 10 difficulty, a new kind of swamp environment, new adversaries from the…
Being a fan of independent games in the early 2010s was fantastic, as titles like Super Meat Boy, Bastion, and Limbo set the standard for later titles. The original Volgarr the Viking, a 2D platformer inspired by the ways the genre had changed during the 1990s, is one of my faves from that era. It plays and looks like a 16-bit Sega Genesis game. It was extremely enjoyable to surpass its trials because it was brutally challenging but always fair, with careful balance. I hate to say it, but Volgarr the Viking 2, the 2024 sequel, completely throws that balance…
