Along with a Steam pre-order for cartoony co-op FPS (first-person stabber) Mythforce if you pay-what-you-want enough Humble Bundle’s latest collection of good games for a good price and a good cause is a whopping instant library of classic Dungeons & DragonsCRPGs, including both original Baldur’s Gate games, some similarly legendary classics and some more modern additions to the genre.

That’s around 9% of The Witcher publisher’s workforce CD Projekt Red have announced another batch of layoffs, this time affecting “around 100” employees, or roughly 9% of the company’s total headcount. The redundancies won’t take place immediately, according to CDPR, as some employees won’t lose their jobs until early next year at the latest. “There’s no easy way to say this, but today we are overstaffed,” said CEO Adam Kiciński in an‘organisational update’posted to the company’s website....

Cantata is a turn-basedstrategy gamewith some production chain management thrown in for good measure, alongside the massive maps and base building. Take a look at the candy-coloured Dune-esque world below. Cantata takes place on the surreal planet of Shoal which is in the thick of a brutal robo-rebellion, despite its sticky sweet exterior....

Explore a new secret area in Chestnut Ridge Where is the cave in The Sims 4 Horse Ranch?From time to time,The Sims 4team like to keep us on our toes by including a secret area in the latest world added with a new expansion pack. The infrequent tradition makes a return inThe Sims 4Horse Ranch, although the “secret” of Dreadhorse Caverns didn’t stay secret for very long. Nevertheless, knowing that the secret cave exists and knowing how to find it are two very different things, since secret areas inThe Simsgames are often surprisingly hard to locate....

Understand the benefits of mini animal ownership and how to care for them in The Sims 4 Want to know where to get mini goats and mini sheep in The Sims 4 Horse Ranch?The Sims 4Horse Ranch adds more animal companions than the title might suggest, with mini goats and mini sheep an unexpected yet adorable first-time addition to the Sims' world. However, upon starting the game, it’s not entirely obvious how to expand your fuzzy family to include these cute mini ruminants....

Brain smooth Now thatDiablo 4’s new season has arrived, I thought I’d give the game another shot. So, in an evening spare of stuff to do, I booted the game up and created a druid called ANIMALS. After a few hours of pressing 1,3,2,4, in either the same pattern or different patterns, I’ve come to realise the game doesn’t make me feel anything. I bash some skeletons, I equip a staff, I exit to Windows, I couldn’t care less....

Indiescovery’s Season One Finale We begin this episode with a little bit of sad news: the Indiescovery podcast is going on hiatus, due to the fact that Rachel and I are both leaving Rock Paper Shotgun for pastures new.

The free-to-play game’s early access isn’t free, though In a somewhat convoluted twist, early access has been paywalled behind four different Founder’s Packs, depite the fact that the eventual 1.0 release will be free-to-play. The Founder’s Packs include the Base tier (£14), Initiate tier (£33), Awakened tier (£60), and the whopping Exalted tier (£99!). You can see what each pack gets you over on theofficial website. Spoilers: it’s mostly cosmetic sets with names like “Silo Firestarter Style....

Run and tarot that The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhoodis the next game from Deconstructeam, the folks behind gorgeous and pensive cyberpunk bartending gameThe Red Strings Club. Like that game, it looks to be a beautifully pixelly exploration of fate, wrapped up in the clicky satisfaction of a branching story game.After Rachel was left impressed by its mixture of the mystical and magical earlier this year, we’ll all be able to play it next month....

To rely so much on DLSS, FSR and XeSS misses their point Ideally, the story ofRemnant II’s launch would start and end with it being anambitious success of a shooty Soulslike. Sadly not: in aReddit postaddressing complaints of wonky performance, even on higher-end graphics cards, developers Gunfire Games admitted to having “designed the game with upscaling in mind.” Working the likes ofNvidia DLSS,AMD FSR, andIntel XeSSinto a game wouldn’t normally be a cause of incredulity....

That’s the noise my forks make too! In writing about games likeA Little To The Leftor currentRPS Game ClubpickUnpacking, I often have to point out that I am a weird little gremlin who loves puzzles and putting things in the right place in games, but not actually in real life. In real life, I write to you today from a desk covered in a weird detritus of work and life that wouldn’t quite see me on an exploitative reality TV show with the word hoarder somewhere in the title, but, you know… maybe give it 15 years....
