Some of her quality-of-life stuff is clunky Overwatch‘s increasing presence inHeroes of the Stormhas been met with jubilation and tepidness alike. Personally I love that the series is doing well enough to warrant frequent crossovers, and the characters are interesting enough to justify their existence in multiple projects. That, and theHeroesteam does a bang-up job of converting their FPS kits to a MOBA. D.Va is yet another hero that’s been ported over to near-perfection — at least in terms of the way she works mechanically....
Despite the fact thatRagedoesn’t release for another few months, you may’t silence id Software’s John Carmack. Not even when he wants to delve into sequel talk. GameSpot has quoted the technical director as saying “yes,” the studio is planning a follow-up to its post-apocalyptic shooterRage. “We haven’t got a formal, official announcement, but we’re certainly headed in that direction.” “I am working on next-generation engine technology and what we’ll be doing with graphics when we start really rethinking it....
Not only did Sony and Capcom just announce thatStreet Fighter X Tekkenis coming to the Playstation Vita, but they’ve also just told us that Cole McGrath from theInFAMOUSseries will be appearing in game as a playable fighter. It’s incredible to see a very Western character like Cole get a Japanese art direction overhaul. I had very little interest in the character before, but seeing him with these new exaggerated animations and beefy, badass moves has definitely caught my attention....
In Yoshida I trust TheFinal Fantasy XVIcombat system is surely going to be polarizing when it arrives, even if it nails the action blueprint it’s trying to accomplish. Producer Naoki “Yoshi P” Yoshida knows this, and recentlyspoke to Famitsu(as translated by VGC) on the matter, providing some interesting insight into why the series will continue down an action-oriented path. Yoshida says the decision on where to takeFinal Fantasy XVIcombat is a multi-faceted issue, citing “the past decade” of some users questioning command-based video games, the opinions of younger audiences who don’t play RPGs, and the sheer march of time and technology....
PC gamers were probably disheartened to learn that, much like all previous Rockstar games,Grand Theft Auto 6would be arriving a little later on Windows. But according to a former Rockstar developer, the decision to go console-first mostly has to do with marketing. According to former Rockstar developer Mike York (who’s previously worked onGTA 5andRed Dead Redemption 2and discussed this ina YouTube video) the company always prioritizes “what sells.” “One of the main things I want to touch on is that the reason why a PC port comes later and not the first thing that comes out is because they want to prioritize what sells,” he explained....

Star Wars: The Old Republicwill definitely turn all of your children gay, according to right-wing Christian lunatic group, the Family Research Council. FRC president Tony Perkins recently criticized BioWare’s MMO for being full of homosexual activism that will “Star Warp” impressionable young minds with its promise of same-sex relationships. “In a newStar Warsgame, the biggest threat to the empire may be homosexual activists,” he said.“… Since the announcement, homosexuals have been celebrating the news, but parents sure aren’t....
A franchise that almost never happened Apparently development staff and evenHarvest Moonfans didn’t see the need to add combat to the farming formula. Marvelous AQ Executive Officer/CCO Yoshifumi Hashimoto shared at a panel this morning that he didn’t have many allies when developingHarvest Moonspin-off seriesRune Factory. I’m personally surprised it still happened given resistance even among establishedHarvest Moonfans, but the series has gone on to find success. “Initially it wasn’tHarvest Moonfans who were following our information releases about the game....
