Any high-end PC gaming setup isn’t complete without a mechanical gaming keyboard, but with dozens of brands and seemingly endless options, it can be difficult to find just the right one. One brand that seems to consistently put out high quality PC gaming hardware is Corsair, and the company’s K68 mechanical keyboard is no exception, delivering just about everything one could want from a mechanical gaming keyboard. The K68 is a painless setup, with no additional software to install, unlike some other gaming keyboards on the market....

During E3 2017, BioWare announced its brand new IP, an RPG called Anthem. Almost as soon as the Anthem gameplay trailer had begun, people began to compare the game to Destiny 2. But could it really compete with Bungie’s first-person shooter? Looking at the way that BioWare itself describes Anthem, it’s little wonder why people say that the game is so similar to Destiny 2. Anthem is described as a “shared-world-action-RPG” that lets players take on the world as a “heroic team” and also promises “unique weapons and abilities” as well as “massive, world-altering” events that players can experience together....

Shrouded in mystery, the Dragon of the West known as uncle Iroh was an iconic character on Avatar: The Last Airbender. The sometimes chubby and always positive uncle was the foil to his nephew Zuko. Iroh loved to eat, drink tea, play Pai Sho, and relax — but when appropriate, he was a Firebending beast and expert strategist. Spouting off proverbs and words of wisdom, he lived what he taught. Iroh’s life wasn’t always tea and wise sayings, as he had a past which to this day is still mostly untold....

This week’s episode of Critical Role marked the 5 year anniversary of the beloved Dungeons & Dragons livestream. The episode featured a touching song from Sam, Fjord separating from his pact for good, Jester making an interesting decision, a celebration of peace, and Caleb hating hugs. These are some of the best moments from campaign 2 episode 99 of Critical Role. Warning: spoilers for Critical Role campaign 2 episode 99....

Cyberpunk 2077 has more than its fair share of problems. Not only is there a litany of random bugs that can draw players out of the experience, but the game is also plagued with instability and crashing issues, particularly on the base PS4 and Xbox One systems. PC players seem to be free from many of these issues, but a new one regarding crafting has just been discovered on all platforms that may cause Cyberpunk 2077 saves to become unreadable....

Cyberpunk 2077 often bombards players with choices, and this can be overwhelming at times. To make matters worse, some of these choices seem to be irrelevant, fizzling out after a short dialogue, while others may have far reaching consequences. This lends a level of anxiety to each decision made in the game, but fans can rest assured knowing that the choice between Angel or Skye isn’t so high stakes. As part of the main story of Cyberpunk 2077, players will enter Clouds in an effort to find Evelyn....

Update 1.2.2 for the free-to-play action role-playing game Dauntless has recently been released by developer Phoenix Labs, introducing a number of bug fixes as well as a Rogue Elements Hunt Pass.

The game Days Gone was released in early 2019 and received mixed reviews due to some technical issues that plagued the game at launch. However, if you return to the game today, you’ll find a game worthy of your time. It offers a rather lengthy story and some unique variations of zombies that haven’t been seen before. That’s not to say that the game doesn’t have it’s fair share of issues still....

With the launch of the PlayStation 5, the Demon’s Souls remake has arrived. The game is mostly a one-to-one remake of the original, with performance and visuals made for next-gen. But one fan seems to have found an easter egg in Demon’s Souls that proves that the developers did indeed add new content to the game, and now it’s up to the players to find out how to access it....

Penn Jillette reveals that notorious simulation title Desert Bus is going to receive a VR sequel, with Gearbox’s Randy Pitchford on board to help with development. Over the course of the year, a number of highly anticipated sequels to popular video games are being released. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is set to launch in April, whilst Gears of War 4 is also going to be released. Now, another sequel has been announced, but it’s hardly a follow-up to a gaming classic....

When Destiny first released, most saw the potential but were unsure if Bungie would ever be able to realize their full vision. Sure, the game has seen numerous patches since launch, but the changes were skewed mostly by Bungie’s ideas for how Destiny should be played not necessarily what players wanted. However, if we were to put a finger on one Destiny fix that players would love to see, it has to be the heavy ammo glitch....

At long last, Destiny: The Taken King arrives tomorrow, and Guardians are undoubtedly preparing themselves for all of the changes to come. With tons of alterations, amendments, and improvements being made with the Update 2.0 patch, Bungie is intent on making sure the expansion’s launch day goes off without a hitch. Ever since developers officially announced the release of the new content, the studio has made sure that fans are aware of the game’s refinements by assaulting them with an onslaught of video, press releases, and advertisements about the DLC....

Thorn is one of the most iconic weapons in Destiny’s history. Not only does the weapon have a unique aesthetic, but it also shaped entire Crucible metas during the first year of the original Destiny. Brought back in Season of the Drifter, Thorn takes the two-tapping potential of its pre-nerf state from the first game and ties it to its new Soul Devourer mechanic. Even without this buff, Thorn is one of the most consistent and easy-to-use 150 RPM Hand Cannons in the game and is a common pick in Trials of Osiris....

Earlier this week, Destiny 2 players banded together to discover the secret of the After the Nightfall Emblem, which had only been unlocked by 5 players prior. Because those players had been instructed by Bungie to keep the secret, players had to problem solve to figure it out, using stats, trackers, and more to piece all the information together. Now, they’ve discovered that there is a secret time trial for each Nightfall that will unlock the Emblem if each and every single of them have been met....

This week, Destiny 2 launched its latest DLC expansion, Warmind, which includes new gear to collect, new story missions, and a new patrol area on Mars to explore. With that new patrol area, comes a new public event, or at least a riff on a familiar public event from Destiny 1. Destiny veterans should recognize the Warsat that appears on Hellas Basin, but since the first game didn’t feature heroic public events there is some mystery involving how to trigger the harder challenge....

A term that Destiny 2 likes to throw around when describing the series’ deep lore is “paracausal,” or the concept of entities violating the concept of causality. Causality basically meaning that every occurrence has a cause and effect, and elements of the paracausal being causeless. For as much as humanity deals in absolutes, entities in the world of Destiny don’t always follow the principle of causality. One such entity that’s plagued many life forms across the cosmos is the Darkness, Destiny’s main antagonist....

From the days of unplugging ethernet cables to glitch Crota in Destiny 1 to using matchmaking exploits to host 12-man raids in Destiny 2: Beyond Light, the Destiny franchise is no stranger to bugs or glitches. While Bungie does its best to try and patch exploits and various bugs as quickly as it can, it is currently facing multiple issues in Destiny 2: Beyond Light. Bungie is currently working on a fix for issues affecting the Trials of Osiris game mode as well as an exploit that allows for 12-man Fireteams in raid encounters....

It’s a big day for Destiny 2 players as not only has season 5 kicked off, but Update 2.1.o has also arrived and brought with it a lot of much-needed adjustments. Some of the more inconsistent supers like the Hunter’s Spectral Blades and the Warlock’s Chaos Reach are getting fixed so that they can finally reach their full potential. The Crucible and Gambit game modes also received a number of fixes and balancing to the ranking systems....

It’s been an interesting two weeks for Destiny 2, with the community growing frustrated over recent discoveries within the game. Though Bungie has deactivated the most glaring issue, an XP cooldown for quick activities, the game continues to suffer from core problems like an over-reliance on reputation tokens to reward players, limited endgame content, and Crucible balance to name a few. Bungie has heard the community outcry and in an unexpected move, released a lengthy blog post this week giving fans a look behind the curtain at how the developer plans to fix the game, including better rewarding its most hardcore players....
