I have completely missed it yesterday, but classic FFVII has been released on GOG https://www.gog.com/en/news/final_fantasy_vii_is_now_out_with_a_limitedtime_discount_alongside_classic_final_fantasy_deals

First one I noticed, is that whatever enchantment I chose for any weapon on my first run, remains locked to every subsequent run. I thought maybe when I found a new version of the weapon I'd get to change it on that one, but no. Not sure if this is a bug or meant to be this way. Since I messed around with weapons in the first run that I didn't plan on using, this means some are now locked to enchantments I wouldn't have chosen if I were actually going to utilize those weapons. Second is, around level 13 your companions abilities will be complete. However, they'll still accumulate points which means you have an big ol' exclamation mark on your abilities tab for the rest of the game because you can't spend those points. Not only that, if you don't turn off the 'Level Up Notification' setting, every now and then you'll get a pop up on your screen telling you that you have unspent ability points. For those of us that feel the need to clear the little exclamation points from all the tabs every time we open the character screen.. this will eventually drive us all insane.

I don't think anyone posted it yet but a big shakeup at the top of Obsidian's corporate overlord: Phil Spencer is retiring, Sarah Bond is leaving. Matt Booty is still there and gets to be a "chief content officer" while the new CEO job goes to Asha Sharma the president of Microsoft’s CoreAI product. Proof will be in the pudding, but her background doesn't inspire me with confidence. The VergeInside Microsoft’s big Xbox leadership shake-upMicrosoft has a new gaming CEO

I submitted my applications for the Obsidian sumer internship program but I haven't heard anything back at all. Does no email back to me mean I didn't make the cut or are they still deciding?

the raids came really late for me aswell. Maybe you have to finish the story before the raids are coming.

i have the same issue with the german (qwertz) layout. even switching to qwerty doensn't solve this problem.

I'm kind of itching for a mostly overpowered mage type game, vs over-gimped ones, that isn't from the 1990's. Tainted Grail was kinda like that by late game but already played that one. Sometimes I want mega-power-creep characters and screw any balance. Running around in MM7 spamming that Dark GM spell Souldrinker that covered a huge area was fun. Wish I could still get into that game - too many years ago tho.

Yeah I saw Daniel Owens vid re: those. Seems reasonable. The 1st game was pretty well optimized (imo) for the results at the time, was expecting similar. That engine they use seems pretty decent re: that stuff. The concept of a different upscaling offering is kinda interesting too, although nvidia users probably have no reason to use it over dlss.

AP NewsSupreme Court rules the Postal Service can't be sued, eve...A divided Supreme Court has ruled that Americans can’t sue the U.S. Postal Service, even when employees deliberately refuse to deliver mail.Shouldn't be using mail-in voting anymore: your post office would seem to be allowed to steal or destroy your mail without repercussion now.

I always thought it looked similar to malachite

Id love the priest class to return. There's just so much fun roleplay potential with that class.

Eh, the Jackster's going to shut up eventually, no worries. Keanu on the other hand, uh...

Hello! I am that kind of player who likes to play with a gamepad controller. On PC it is possible to play with a controller, but it needs a little extra. It could be really helpful if the CHARACTER MOVEMENTS could be assignable in the keymapping menu. Just the most necessary things: move UP, DOWN, RIGHT, LEFT. The auto following camera is an already helpful perfect addition for this kind of gameplay. What do you think, are the assignable movement commands doable?

obviously this is going to happen every time if google and microsoft already leaked all the data they stole multiple time so will everyone else

Romances tends to be very shallow. IMO, the unique game that did romances right is Mount & Blade. IE - is pure "political" and alliance based marriage among nobles.

https://fortune.com/2026/02/24/discord-peter-thiel-backed-persona-identity-verification-breach/ "In addition to verifying a user’s age, researchers found Persona performs 269 distinct verification checks, including screening for “adverse media” across 14 different categories such as terrorism and espionage. It then assigns risk and similarity scores to user information." So basically, what we expected to happen with the age verification crap is exactly what happened - in fact, it's even worse. They wouldn't just use your data for ai training, you also get put into a huge ICE / FinCEN / terror watchlist database. /Edit: Here is a video about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCi9Uq5GZ18 None of this is about protecting the children - if they wanted to do that, they would jail their pedophile elite.

Yeah I will be waiting for a discount as well, especially that from the reviews I expect to enjoy the sequel less then the original. It’s also not an in-house port this time around so I will be waiting for specs and more importantly Digital Foundry’s port breakdown as well. Edit. Specs are out: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/death-stranding-2s-system-requirements-have-washed-ashore-and-theyre-pretty-reasonable /Edit. In other news: https://www.pcgamer.com/gaming-industry/remedys-new-ceo-is-a-former-sports-betting-guy-and-ea-executive-who-aims-to-scale-remedy-in-a-way-that-builds-lasting-value/ I don’t like the sound of that, but with how financially unviable Remedy seems to be some form of downfall is inevitable. Not that being a successful studio saves anyone from being shut down these days I suppose. I hope Control: Resonant will be good. I really appreciate them as a studio, but I also feel they can be highly uneven in their output.

Finally! Was waiting so long. Didn't want to buy a PS5 for literally a single game, since everything that interests me nowadays comes to PC anyways. But 80€ ... I'm going to wait.

at least I dont have to worry what weapon type to use the whole game I wanted to do a swashbuckler sabre devoted, but not this time.
