Cyberpunk 2077 Reaches New Sales Milestone Following Edgerunners’ Success

1 year 7 months ago

CD PROJEKT RED has announced that Cyberpunk 2077 has officially sold 20 million copies since its release in December 2020.

This indicates a dramatic pick-up in sales over the past few months. 2 million, to be precise, as the publisher announced it had sold 18 million copies in April of this year.

For the uninitiated, Cyberpunk 2077 is a first-person action RPG inspired by the Cyberpunk tabletop game created by Mike Pondsmith in 1988. The game is set in the future where the lines between man and machine are blurred against the backdrop of the Blade Runner inspired Night City. Themes of identity, corporate greed, and much more are present within the game.

Where Is Yuta During the Events of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1? Explained

1 year 7 months ago

While Jujutsu Kaisen 0 is a solid film and a great addition to the Jujutsu Kaisen canon overall, it also raises plenty of questions. Key among them is a rather simple one, though its answer has major implications for the rest of the series proper: Where is Yuta during the events of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1, and why does it take him so long to reappear in the series proper? Fortunately, we’ve done some research and figured out why this Curse-slinging powerhouse hasn’t been in the equation.

Why Is Yuta Not in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1? Answered

The reason Yuta Okkotsu doesn’t show up in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 is simple: He’s currently off training with Miguel from Jujutsu Kaisen 0.

This is hinted at during the final scene of Jujutsu Kaisen 0, where Yuta meets Miguel in Africa following the events of the film.

Despite their being part of different factions during the Night of 100 Demons, they’re on good terms and Miguel welcomes Yuta for what seems to be an extended stay. Satoru Gojo then appears, hinting at the fact that he’s the one who set this series of events up in exchange for letting Miguel off the hook for his actions.

It’s a minor scene in the grand scheme of Jujutsu Kaisen 0’s plot, but carries a lot of importance for the wider series as a whole. Likewise, it properly connects Jujutsu Kaisen 0 to the plot of Jujutsu Kaisen proper, making all of the events of the film canon to the larger series.

Does Yuta Okkotsu Die in Jujutsu Kaisen 0?

This also clears up the matter of whether or not Okkotsu Yuta dies in Jujutsu Kaisen 0.

How to Get Deepwood Memories Artifact Set in Genshin Impact

1 year 7 months ago

Genshin Impact’s Deepwood Memories Artifact set was created to give Dendro damage a boost and works well with other elements. As is the case with most useful items, though, you’ll have to seek it out somewhere in the world if you want to use it with your various Dendro damage dealing characters. Here’s everything you need to know on how to get the Deepwood Memories Artifact set.

Genshin Impact Deepwood Memories Artifact Set Location

The Deepwood Memories Artifact set is in the Avidya forest as a reward for completing the Domain of Blessing: Seven Senses. Look for the Spire of Solitary Enlightenment once you enter the forest. The location of the spire is circled on the map below.

All the pieces of the Deepwood Memories Set in Genshin Impact: the Labyrinth Wayfarer, Scholar of Vines, A Time of Insight, Lamp of the Lost, and Laurel Coronet.

The Set is made up of these five pieces: the Labyrinth Wayfarer, Scholar of Vines, A Time of Insight, Lamp of the Lost, and Laurel Coronet.

How to Best Use Deepwood Memories Artifact Set

This set pushes Collei’s ability Trump-Card Kitty over the top when paired with other Elemental attacks. Try combining it with a Hydro and Pyro attack on a group of enemies for a devastating fast Bloom.

To maximize damage of combos like this, it’s best to collect the 5-star versions of the set pieces. Only four of the pieces are needed for a maximum bonus, so equip Collei with a 5th from a different set.

Where to Get Inactivated Fungal Nucleus, Dormant Fungal Nucleus and Robust Fungal Nucleus in Genshin Impact

1 year 7 months ago

Genshin Impact’s new Sumeru region is full of surprises: there are plenty of new artifacts, upgrade materials, and domains to complete. One of the new materials is Fungal Nucleus, which comes in Inactivated, Dormant, and Robust varieties. Here’s everything you need to get Inactivated Fungal Nucleus, Dormant Fungal Nucleus and Robust Fungal Nucleus in Genshin Impact.

How to Get All Fungal Nucleus Types in Genshin Impact, Explained

The process for collecting each type of Fungal Nucleus is the same, destroy Fungi around Sumeru. All levels of Fungi drop Inactivated Fungal Nucleus, while only level 40 or above drop Dormant Fungal Nucleus, and only level 60 and above drop Robust Fungal Nucleus — sometimes Fungi drop Fungal Spores instead so be patient.

There are a few areas with a dense concentration of Fungi to farm this material: in between Gandha Hill and The Chasm, northwest of Vanarana, and under Chinvat Ravine.

How to Fix ‘OBS Failed to Load Channel Information for Twitch’ Error

1 year 7 months ago

Seeing as OBS is such a big part of streaming on Twitch, there is a pretty significant issue if you can’t make it work with the stream you are trying to start. There are some pretty easy fixes, though something like this could also be a problem with Twitch itself. Here’s how to fix the OBS Failed to Load Channel Information for Twitch error.

At the moment there is a definite problem with Twitch, they just put out this recent tweet:

Likely if you are seeing this problem right now in OBS it is entirely a Twitch problem and not something you can correct yourself. However, there are still a couple of things you can do if you aren’t sure of the cause.

Cyno and Paimon Joke in New Genshin Impact Commercial

1 year 7 months ago

genshin impact commercials cyno

For the second anniversary of Genshin Impact, HoYoVerse has released six new commercials in Japanese. Most of them are very similar, barring one where Cyno and Paimon introduce Sumeru characters together. They feature narration from Aoi Koga (Paimon), Miyu Irino (Cyno), and Yukari Tamura (Nahida, Qiqi).

In "Introducing Genshin Friends Part 4," Cyno gives a very quick summary of the playable Sumeru characters prior to Version 3.0. For example, Tighnari is ‘Ranger Leader’ and Dori is ‘Greedy Merchant.’ However, when he introduces Paimon, he says ‘Kawaisa Ippaimon,’ which can translate to 'Pai-les of adorableness.'  The original is a pun on Paimon's name and 'ippai,' which means 'lots.' Though Paimon blushes, Cyno quickly laments that it wasn’t funny, to Paimon’s ire.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivLAtPHvwhQ

The other Genshin Impact second anniversary commercials focus on the game's story. They end with a phrase that loosely translates to "Beyond the emotions of an RPG." They are as follows:

Genshin Impact 2nd Anniversary”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZTfK_okF7g

“The Faraway Land”

Ryan Reynolds & Hugh Jackman “Explain” Wolverine in Deadpool 3/MCU

1 year 7 months ago

Yesterday, Ryan Reynolds broke the internet when he revealed the official release date for Deadpool 3, which is scheduled to arrive in theaters on September 6, 2024.

Not only will Reynolds reprise his role as the merc with the mouth, but the actor revealed that Hugh Jackman will appear as Wolverine after he retired from the role with 2017’s Logan.

While that’s all great to hear, many fans were wondering how Wolverine is alive after the events of Logan and how his appearance fits within the MCU’s timeline. Luckily, Reynolds released a video on YouTube where he and Jackman attempted to explain this.

In their video, Reynolds explains that Wolverine did die in Logan but Deadpool 3 won’t retcon the events established in the X-Men timeline. “Logan died in Logan. Not Touching that,” Reynolds says. He and Jackman then attempt to “discuss” what Deadpool 3 will be about. But, in typical Deadpool fashion, their synopsis for the movie is ruined as Wham’s “Wake Me Up, Before You Go-Go” is spliced over their rundown of the plot. The two then thank the president of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige.

The DioField Chronicle Review

1 year 7 months ago

It’s easy to draw lines between The DioField Chronicle’s sweeping story of war, magic, and shady politics and those of Game of Thrones or Fire Emblem. I'd have to write off the whole fantasy genre if borrowing were a deal-breaker, but they still have to figure out how to assemble those parts into something that stands alone. In this case, it ends up feeling like, at best, a generic version of its inspirations. And while its real-time combat system is an exciting twist, it's often difficult to work with the controls as you fight through its quick, engaging battles. Even the characters who end up having unexpected or interesting roles to play in the unfolding tale end up coming across a bit dull, though that's no fault of the veteran voice cast.

The world of DioField feels like anyone's first try making up a whole new setting for a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, complete with an evil empire trying to conquer everything and characters earnestly named things like "Fredret Lester." You have corrupt nobles scheming, a fanatical church, beast men – it's all well within the Big Book of Fantasy Tropes, but it's not entirely without charm. There is something homey about it all, even if it feels fairly predictable.

Terraria Update is a Big Surprise for the Community

1 year 7 months ago

Terraria just got a surprise update adding a whole bunch of new content despite claiming in 2020 that updates for the popular sim would end.

The Labor of Love update brings with it upside-down worlds, a melee overhaul, the ability to transform into a wolf, and plenty of new items among other cool additions to the game.

“This update is a love letter to all our fans,” reads the official patch notes. “Labor of Love contains many fan suggestions, while also tackling a lot of little things that we think everyone can relate to and will enjoy. As is tradition, we have left a few surprises behind for you to discover yourselves. Topping it off, we were able to get this out to everyone at the same time… for the first time, Terrarians everywhere can celebrate a brand new update together!”

Terraria’s Labor of Love update was released on September 28 and brings an extensive update to the game. Most notably, a new world seed brings upside-down worlds to the game.

“An idea first discussed during the release of Journey's End, Don't Dig Up turns the world of Terraria upside down - literally!” the patch notes reveal. “The player will begin their adventure in the depths of the underworld, complete with all new flora to help provide early resources.”

Ascending into “The Up” changes things up, however, with threats magnifying exponentially until players reach the Surface – a horrifying and inhospitable place that will test the mettle of even the most seasoned Terrarian.

How to Level Up Crafted Weapons Fast in Destiny 2

1 year 7 months ago

Craftable Weapons were introduced to Destiny 2 with the Witch Queen DLC back in February. The list of weapons you could craft in February was relatively small, but it has exponentially grown since then. We’ve already made several different guides discussing how to get these weapons, but one question remains: how do you level them up? So today, let’s discuss how to level up crafted weapons fast in Destiny 2.

How To Level Up Crafted Weapons Fast In Destiny 2

Once you acquire your crafted weapon, your next step is to level the gun up until you can choose what perks you want on it. Typically, you should aim for level 16, as nearly all enhanced perks can be unlocked by then, except a few that require beyond level 16. We’re going to go over a couple of places where you can quickly level them up.

Returnal for PC Seemingly Leaks, Includes DLSS and Ray-Traced Shadows

1 year 7 months ago

Footage of Returnal on PC appeared to leak earlier today, seemingly confirming that Housemarque's roguelite will be joining Sony's other first-party releases on the platform.

The leaked footage first appeared on Icon-Era after being uploaded to Youtube, showing off the options and customization of the PC version including ray-traced shadows, reflections, DLSS, and FSR. The footage was pulled by Sony not long after.

Assuming the footage is real, it shows that Returnal will receive significant enhancements over the PS5 release, which favored frame-rate over pure visual fidelity.

First released in 2021, Returnal was lauded for its originality and its actions. In our review we wrote that "the moment-to-moment gameplay of Returnal is sublime," and that it never drops the ball on the story, but that runs have a tendency to last too long. Housemarque has since released a number of improvements, including multiplayer co-op and the ability to save in the middle of runs.

Sony has yet to officially announce a PC version of Returnal, but it seems very likely given the recent pipeline that includes Spider-Man, God of War, and Horizon: Zero Dawn. It would be another showcase release for the Steam Deck, which we recently covered in a wide-ranging interview with Valve.

For now, Returnal's PC release date remains unknown, but if the footage is real, an announcement appears imminent.

Major Disney Dreamlight Valley Patch Featuring Scar Gets a Timing Update

1 year 7 months ago

Disney Dreamlight Valley’s upcoming patch is coming in about three weeks.

The update, which also adds The Lion King character, Scar, will be coming this fall, but Disney is yet to pin down an actual release date.

“The next bug fixes will be released as part of the first content update featuring Scar, this fall,” they confirmed via Twitter. “While we can't share exact timing yet, we are targeting a release in around 3 weeks.”

Although the developers didn’t give a definite date, they did confirm that this will be separate from the current Star Path end date. They also gave an update on what they consider to be priority issues in the game:

“Expect updates on the following in the coming weeks as we get closer to locking fixes: Preventing progress loss, Missing Founder's Pack rewards, Console crashes.”

As well as these priority issues, the patch will also include over 40 bug foxes, such as PS4 optimizations, Lightning VFX, two quest fixes, Switch audio distortion, and an issue where rain doesn't water crops.

Additionally, the patch will also add an improved photo mode and more avatar poses.

“We know it can be frustrating to run into bugs or issues, so we appreciate your patience,” they stated. “There are a ton of fixes coming and many are thanks to your helpful issue reports! Stay tuned for more status updates in the coming weeks and thanks again.”

Is Geto Stronger Than Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen? Explained (Spoilers)

1 year 7 months ago

If you’re like most Jujutsu Kaisen fans, the prospect of seeing Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto together in Jujutsu Kaisen 0 was likely a big selling point. After all, both are the powerhouses of their respective factions and prodigies of the Jujutsu Sorcerers, capable of leveling entire armies with their unique abilities. Seeing as how the two don’t face off directly during the film though, you wouldn’t be blamed for wondering: Is Geto stronger than Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen, or is it the other way around?

We were curious as to what the answer was ourselves, and after doing some research, we’ve found some potential answers. Do be warned, though, that we’ll be digging into material from the Flashback arc and the Shinjuku arc for information, meaning you’ll need to be up to at least the end of the Shinjuku arc if you don’t want to be spoiled by this article.

Is Gojo Stronger Than Geto in Jujutsu Kaisen 0?

It should be made clear right away that in almost every situation, Gojo would annihilate Geto in a straight-up fight in Jujutsu Kaisen.

This is because Satoru Gojo is basically a MacGuffin of a character. Hailed as the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer of all time, he’s capable of manipulating space however he sees fit through his Limitless Cursed Technique. He can keep enemies from ever getting close to him, manipulate an attack’s trajectory before it hits him, and otherwise control where any given object or matter is in relation to him.

Even if an enemy manages to damage him, he’s capable of healing himself using Reversed Cursed Energy. This is how he survived a mortal wound from Fushiguro Toji, and can bounce back from even the most deadly wound in an instant.

How To Farm Powerful Cabal In Destiny 2

1 year 7 months ago

Season of Plunder is beginning to reach the halfway point, and now in week six, a new seasonal challenge was released where players must venture out to defeat Powerful Cabal. Powerful Cabal are identified as any Cabal enemy with a Orange or Yellow health bar. Strikes would normally be a go to option for this situation, but we have other methods. So today, let’s discuss how to farm Powerful Cabal in Destiny 2.

Farming Powerful Cabal In Destiny 2

As mentioned before, while Strikes are a solid option to choose, there are other methods to help find and defeat Powerful Cabal fast and easy. Here’s a few:

How To Farm Powerful Cabal In Destiny 2

  1. Cabal Lost Sector

    Your first option would be to run some Cabal Lost Sectors. They’re easy to find and always have Powerful Cabal inside. On a good run, you can defeat upwards of 5-10 Powerful Cabal. And the best part is, you can immediately do it over again once you complete it. Simply run in and out of the Lost Sector to refresh it. A good choice would be The Quarry Lost Sector in the Sunken Isles of the EDZ.

How to Get the Lunulata-4b Bow in Destiny 2 & What the God Roll Is

1 year 7 months ago

With the full release of the light subclass reworks, players have been diving deep into the new ways they can build into the classic three elements: solar, void, and arc. This has left the one Darkness based subclass we have available, Stasis, to become somewhat of an overshadowed option. That is not to say that it isn’t viable, as it remains and incredibly strong option for crowd control in PvE activities and a great counter for close range combatants in PvP. Among the myriad of incredible weapons released with Season of the Haunted was the Lunulata-4b, a Lightweight Stasis bow with incredible potential. While not the strongest contender for PvP, that falling to this season’s Whistler’s Whim, is has incredible potential as a PvE powerhouse with some strong Stasis synergies. Here is how to get the Lunulata-4b bow in Destiny 2, and what god rolls you should be hunting.

Wild Arms & Shadow Hearts Spiritual Successors Armed Fantasia & Penny Blood Get New WIP Gameplay Videos & More

1 year 7 months ago

As their joint Kickstarter Campaign is about to sunset, Wild Bunch Productions and Yukikaze released new assets about their upcoming JRPGs Armed Fantasia and Penny Blood.

Speaking of Armed Fantasia, we learn of three new ARMS types unlocked via stretch goals, Gunblades, Whips, and Chainsaws. These will come with their own specific party roles, adding further depth to the battle system.

We also get the introduction of a group named the Iconocluster, described as follows:

“Meaning “destroyers of the sacred icon”. Much as the name would imply, they are a secret society of anti-Order insurgents.

They see the Order’s control over the world as domination and evil. However, while their sole target is the Order itself, their activities often result in destruction, affecting the lives of the general populace.

But to Iconocluster, it is for the greater good. They also claim to be the ones responsible for unlocking the future of Londenium.

Despite their numbers being far inferior to that of the Order, their possession of heretical technologies discovered in the ruins, combined with their penchant for guerilla warfare, makes them a force to be reckoned with.”

On top of new renders of the main heroes, we also take another look at the field with another WIP gameplay video, showing quite a bit of freedom of exploration and traversal.

How to Stepover Right in FIFA 23

1 year 7 months ago

Skill moves are a constantly-evolving yet ever-important part of the FIFA franchise. The latest installment is no exception, as mastering certain skill moves can make all the difference when it comes to getting the edge on your opponent. So in this guide, we’re going to break down how to stepover right in FIFA 23.

Stepover Right Guide for FIFA 23

To stepover right in FIFA 23, players simply need to roll the right joystick Forward to Right, as the instructions below indicate. That said, you may have to attempt the move more than once to make sure the animation goes through.

While the stepover can be utilized by any player with at least a two-star skill move rating, all players will have an opportunity to experiment with this move within the Kylian Mbappe Early Career Moments challenge.

There are two things to keep in mind here. For one, Mbappe can do just about anything he wants to while on the ball. Secondly, the difficulty for this particular challenge is set to amateur, which is very low. So, players won’t have much pressure while attempting to pull this off.

“WarnerMedia was improvidently concentrating its investments in streaming and ignoring its other business lines … [and] overstated the number of subscribers to HBO Max by as many as 10 million subscribers, by including as subscribers AT&T customers who had received bundled access to HBO Max, but had not signed onto the service.”

It also alleges that AT&T, Warner Bros.’s previous owner, overinvested in WarnerMedia entertainment content for “streaming without sufficient concern for return on investments,” claiming that Warner Media had a business model to increase its subscriber number “without regard to cost or profitability.”

The lawsuit names WBD, CEO David Zaslav, and CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels as defendants.

Who Is Nezarec in Destiny 2? Answered

1 year 6 months ago

The Witness is drawing ever closer in Destiny 2. This past year we learned the existence of not only The Witness himself but also his disciples. We first met Rhulk, the first disciple of The Witness, in the Vow of the Disciple Raid, then at the end of Season 17, we also learned that Calus has become a disciple as well. However, very recently in Season 18, another disciple of The Witness was revealed to us, Nezarec. So today, let’s discuss who is Nezarec in Destiny 2.

Nezarec’s Identity in Destiny 2 Explained

We’ve heard the name Nezarec a few times throughout the Destiny franchise. Examples would be the Exotic Helmet for Warlocks, Nezarec’s Sin, and then on the Vow of the Disciple Glaive, Nezarec’s whisper. Until now, we’ve only had hints or theories about what Nezarec was or could be. However, in Season 18, otherwise known as Season of Plunder, it was revealed in a cutscene that Nezarec was once a disciple of none other than The Witness. Although, we discover only what remained of him.

What Does FIFA Stand For? Answered

1 year 6 months ago

Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, despite not being the most popular sport in North America. Its international popularity demanded the creation of a governing body, which takes the form of FIFA. If you’re here you must be wondering what does FIFA mean? Here’s everything you need to know on what does FIFA stands for.

FIFA Meaning Explained

FIFA stands for Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA was founded in Paris), French for International Federation of Association Football. The organization makes events like the World Cup possible by enforcing consistent rules at every official event. In addition to the World Cup, FIFA has events like the FIFAe World Cup, Youth Cup, and Women’s World Cup to encourage diversity.

FIFA is run democratically, it has a Congress that votes on statutes, elects a president for the organization, and whether to admit national associations. FIFA Congress meets yearly but has extraordinary sessions, like when current FIFA president Gianni Infantino was elected.

Soccer isn’t as popular in the U.S., but American gamers play FIFA, the most popular sports video game in the world. FIFA 23 releases worldwide on Sept. 30, 2022, and finally features a female player on the cover. FIFA won’t be working with EA Sports for their official soccer video game after this year which may boost sales of the game.

That’s all we have on what the letters in FIFA stand for. Check out some of our other FIFA 23 content like the web and mobile app release date, how to roll a ball and how to check FUT server status.
