A few hours with New Arc Line reminded me that setting doesn’t mean much in an RPG if the characters aren’t interesting

Hands on with the upcoming Steampunk CRPG When the trailer for steampunkRPGNew Arc Linereleased in April, I was immediately taken in by its premise. To my shame, I’ve never gotten around to the social tensions and magic-meets-technology world ofArcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. A newer, shinier journey to a similar setting sounded like just the ticket. After spending a few hours with the preview build, I do have at least one bit of very positive news to share: I’m definitely going to play Arcanum now, because despite some fetching environments and potentially interesting social systems, New Arc Line just isn’t doing it for me....

EA FC 25 review: ol' familiar football, even if it does encourage a different style

No matter what, I’ll be there Something feels off. I’ve brought an utterly improbable Champions League title to Aston Villa, built an enviable Ultimate Team and developed a formation that keeps at least outright humiliation at bay in online matches… And yet, my heart isn’t bursting with the joy of joga bonito. This must be how Guardiola feels, popping onto the pitch to celebrate his annual Prem title with the latest batch of ruthlessly efficient, lab-grown wonderkids and pushing down the feeling that this one doesn’t feel quite as special as the first....

Here’s eight minutes of new Death Stranding 2 scenes, posted chopped up and context free on social media as Kojima intended

In fact, thegame’s demomanaged to make me go “oooh” then “ah!” in three different ways before I’d even exited the starting elevator. It also made me go “ugh” once, because I opted against tank controls, despite the suggestion to use them with mouse and keyboard....
