This JRPG sounded great, but then I learned how it was made, and now it sounds impossible
Lie of Caelum: Spirit recently bagged more than $100,000 in extra Kickstarter funds on the back of stellar art and music, and the promise of a "PSX-style sci-fi mecha JRPG" that was "inspired by Xenogears and Phantasy Star." This all sounds well and good, but my gast wasn't truly flabbered until I learned that this 3D mech game was made in RPG Maker. I don't know if you've ever played an RPG Maker game, but they don't normally look like this: https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/cMq2gy_u3Os

GTA 6 devs tried "not to jump on the bandwagon" of passing trends and instead created their "own slanted, overblown versions"
Creating a timely satire can be tough when development takes half a decade or more - it's the reason South Park's stuck with its crude art style for literal decades, but the developers of GTA 6 can't just replace their world-class tech with paper cutouts. Instead, the team simply tried to avoid trends that would become outdated come launch. Read more

Kingdom Come: Deliverance Dev Calls Out RPGs 'for Teenagers' That Just Focus on 'Power Fantasy'

The Warhorse Studios developer shared his thoughts about his least favorite kind of RPG during an interview with PC Gamer. Kingdom Come: Deliverance has received praise for straying from the beaten path in the past, and Klima's comments suggest that's no accident. He admitted that the role-playing genre is one he enjoys.

Gears of War: E-Day Runs Smoothly on Xbox Series S By Using SSD as RAM
While Gears of War: E-Day is a beautiful game, it's incredibly demanding, whether you're playing it on the Xbox Series X or on PC. But, The Coalition was able to work some magic on the Xbox Series S by tapping into the SSD to increase performance. The Coalition's studio technical director Kate Raynor talked to Digital Foundry and described tapping into the SSD while the Series S was out of memory. That's important for a game as demanding as Gears of War: E-Day, as the Xbox Series S only has 10

14 years later, Troy Baker is still embarrassed by his Mass Effect 3 role
Calling Mass Effect 3's legacy "controversial" would be an understatement. The ending, the DLC rollout, the decision to turn the Normandy's computer into a sexed-up fembot… the list goes on. But among all that, the villain Kai Leng might still be the most-hated part of both the game and the entire franchise. Even now, 14 years after launch, actor Troy Baker still seems embarrassed about helping bring Kai Leng to life. In a recent video with YouTube channel Partychat, Baker is presented with cli

WoW Forever fan beats Blizzard to punch, builds add-on that catches real-money trades
The potential for real-money trading in World of Warcraft: Forever has been a concern since the new MMO's reveal at BlizzCon 2026 – and despite Blizzard already taking action against alleged rule-breakers, fans are coming up with their own ways to deal with it. In case you missed it, Blizzard took $200 in gold from a streamer last week after players flagged it as having been accumulated through real-money trading.

The upcoming D&D interpretation of World of Warcraft sounds great, but don't expect it to work like the MMO does
So many of the questions in a press briefing for the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons: World of Warcraft book revolved around whether the 52-year-old tabletop game would bend out of shape to work like a massively multiplayer online game. But while the D&D translation of WoW does include races and dungeons and characters from Blizzard's famous game, it doesn't fundamentally alter what it is. Read more
