Subnautica 2 creative development lead Anthony Gallegos knows some people are pirating the underwater survival game sequel, which developer Unknown Worlds trudged through mucky legal swamps for a year to finally release in early access May 14, and it pains him. He’d feel better if they just bought it and returned it.Gallegos writes in a launch day message to the Subnautica Discord, that soon also spread throughout the game’s subreddit, that he knows “pirates are gonna do their thing,” but “I would much rather people buy the game, try it for an hour, and return it than go play it…

A new poster for the final episode of The Boys has arrived… and it’s got fans (me) thinking a bit more positively about what’s to come in the series finale.The poster sees Butcher walking up to the White House, while Homelander and dozens of Supes are flying overhead. This is a recreation of a panel from The Boys issue #65 titled, ‘Over The Hill With The Swords Of A Thousand Men.’ In the panel, Butcher is walking up to the White House, with Supes (sans Homelander) flying overhead, and saying, “He ain’t gonna find no fuckin’ superhero waitin. He gonna…

The effective onboarding of curious yet noncommitted first-time EVE Online players is a conundrum that developers Fenris Creations, formerly CCP Games, have been trying to solve for decades. Many are enticed by the MMORPG’s purely player-spun tales of espionage and military adventure, only to bounce off its dense hull of complex economic spacemaths and a sandbox occupied by oft-unpunished pirates and con artists. Perhaps the game’s next big expansion, Cradle of War, will have more luck when it launches on June 9th.

The final day has come for World of Warcraft private server network Turtle WoW. Nearly eight years since it opened its doors to lost players looking for an alternative option, the fan-operated group has now officially shut down its servers for good. One month ago, WoW maker Blizzard Entertainment settled a lengthy legal battle to deliver a cease and desist order to the Turtle WoW team, and with the deadline now upon us, the remaining community has gathered together for a traditional ‘end of an MMORPG’ sendoff. Along with more traditional old-school World of Warcraft experiences, many of the group’s…

Something bloody, damp, and decidedly retro has been darkening the doorsteps of card game sickos for a few weeks now. Forbidden Solitaire, a “card-slashing horror game” anchored to “the contents of a cryptic 1995 CD-ROM” launched on Steam (and GOG and Itch) on April 30, and has had such a profound effect on humanity’s collective consciousness that it’s already crossed 1,100 overwhelmingly positive Steam reviews, much to the surprise of Jake Birkett, owner of co-developer Grey Alien Games.Forbidden Solitaire is currently sitting at 1,104 Steam user reviews averaging 96% positive, putting it in the upper echelons of the entire year…

“I, Lee Sang-hyeok, man of may word, am going to confess my uncontrollable feelings to her.” Faker grabs Karina’s hand as cherry blossoms fall, floating gently as their eyes meet. The lighting is warm; the music romantic. It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for. Smash cut to a Google Play convention. Faker tears through the halls with a somewhat perplexed Karina at his side, a smile on his face – somewhat disarming, the League of Legends icon is notably emotionless. “For Ji-min [Yu, Karina’s full name], who wants more rewards,” he continues. As he chills in the Google Play…

A new PS5 Welcome Hub widget currently in beta testing reveals top and trending games by region, bringing a new layer of Steam-like player analytics to the notoriously opaque console space.YouTuber Mystic flagged the PS5 widget in a recent video, showing several examples of details shared with beta program participants (per Radec). Two settings are available: one shows the top 10 most popular PS5 games of the week, and the other shows games that are “trending now,” selected based on “which games and modes are surging in popularity right now.” Both settings use country-specific data rather than global stats, expanding…

When you reach the endgame in Subnautica 2, there shouldn’t really be much that surprises you. Leviathans, magma, and even really small bullet-shaped fish are now a common occurrence. That is, until you reach the glowing area – you’ll know what we mean when you see it. Troilite is easily the rarest resource we found in Subnautica 2, and as far as early access goes, it’s only used for one, very specific repair. That repair happens to be super important, however, so if you want to press on in the survival game, then you’re going to have to roll up…

Cheo Hodari Coker, creator of Netflix’s Luke Cage TV show, says The Punisher: One Last Kill suffers from its short runtime.”The problem with One Last Kill is it’s too short,” Coker wrote on Twitter. “That’s who Frank Castle is. No mercy. Very much like the comics. It needed more space to breathe. But Bernthal is the best Punisher by far and RMG did a great job directing. About to watch it again.”The Punisher: One Last Kill, directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and co-written by Jon Bernthal, follows a PTSD-stricken Frank Castle who has all but completely lost touch with reality.…

Once you have become reasonably self-sufficient in Subnautica 2, you’ll find that regular resources found in your environment just won’t cut it anymore. More advanced equipment requires more refined ingredients, with strong acid being a component of many recipes and in many tools. Refining resources in this survival game requires knowledge and time, but they can be a game-changer once you know what you’re doing. Strong acid is something that can only be crafted when you’re outside of the starting area, but if you’re forging ahead in Subnautica 2, then it won’t be long before you need this resource. Here’s…
