Random video game news... RNG is your friend!

Non-GPU griping news:

You can apparently now build an entire ship in No Man's Sky, walk around in it, use it as a mini-flying base (I guess?), and leap into space out of it.  I've downloaded the update but haven't turned it on yet. If one can build a decent mini-base sized ship that doesn't fly/handle/land like the Titanic, it'd be my dream. No need for a freighter then. It'd be nice if they put the build-station in Abandoned Mode too, but probably not. Hasn't happened yet, but by the time Light No Fire releases, NMS may/is gonna need a new PC to run it well/max.  

It's not really that deep a dive but if one wants to hear him talk about it a little.

Here is a quick 6 minute Bloodlines 2 gameplay video 

It seems okay, I will wait for final release to see how good this game really is. Im a little reassured but not much

Here is a more detailed gameplay video for Bloodlines 2, its 11 minutes and covers some more detailed mechanics like decapitating combat skills that certain clans have and different dialogue outcomes around your play style 

Its making the game look much better

The game does look interesting and good. But without a third-person mode option, I will have to pass on it.

This may be more the vampire game for me. Looks interesting, but I'll wait and see.

Age of Wonders 4 did a faction creation contest. They were going to pick three submissions to win stuff, have a fourth get a gift through community reactions, and a fifth by random draw. 

They apparently expected only some forum regulars to participate. They got a thread with 18 pages instead. So today they announced they'll do more winners.

That vampire game has some definite Witcher 1 vibes.

Unless you have a valid credit card. Steam have begun rolling out a requirement for all UK-based users to verify their ages, if they wish to access store pages for games rated mature. According to reports, debit cards are acceptable too.

The regulation follows the passing of the UK's Online Safety Act, which now requires a host of online platforms to impose age verification systems.
