The sessionable Khajiiti stimulant, Skooma, has effectively gotten a huge buff. The effects of Skooma now stack up to 22 times as compared to the original game's eight.In Oblivion, the fantasy drug temporarily boosts your speed...

A lockpick gives you a chance to open a lock on a chest or door via successful completion of an instance of the lockpicking minigame. The lockpicking system can be tricky; if you make mistakes, it’s easy to burn through several lockpicks on a single lock. As...

“Pilgrimage” is a side quest in The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered that requires you to look for nine shrines across the map to pray at. Praying at these shrines will help determine if you’re worthy of becoming a knight. While this quest doesn’t have any rewards, it opens up several other future ones, including “The Shrine of the Crusader” and “Wisdom of the Ages.” Each shrine also increases certain...
With all the hubbub about Donkey Kong’s new look in Donkey Kong Bananza, one artist took it upon themselves to reimagine what the King of Swing might have looked like in the upcoming Switch 2 game if Nintendo had stuck with previous design. “I don’t like how they portray DK in Bananza, so I edited some of his most weirder faces and made them more faithful to Rare’s design,” Felipe...
There’s a lot of injustice in The Last of Us. The Cordyceps outbreak doesn’t play favorites (outside of Ellie’s immunity, of course), so people are constantly ripped away from their loved ones; the fight between human factions for the few remaining supplies tears families apart right and left, and the survivors are always left to pick up the pieces and continue on with their lives as best they can. But...
This week we’re talking emotions. I know what you’re thinking: Isn’t that the lifeblood of so much of TV and movies? Sure! But the throughline between the new premieres and finales is Big Stakes and Big Feelings. Whether it’s the end of the world (The Eternaut, The Walking Dead: Dead City) or it just feels like it (The Four Seasons, or how I will feel without The Righteous Gemstones), there’s...

It is the year 2025 and Bethesda wants you to tell it how to improve Oblivion. Such is the strange and rich new world we've been plunged into by last week's release of Oblivion Remastered, which fixed some parts of the original game's jank, lovingly preserved others, and introduced some entirely new bits of its own.Now Bethesda is calling on players to suggest where it (or at least, where developer...
Look, I'm not even going to mess around with a creative intro on this one. The world's largest zip manufacturer, YKK, has made a remote-controlled, motorised, self-propelled zip, and it's glorious.See how it connects a pair of 16-foot membrane sheets together in seconds (via The Verge). Marvel at it zipping up two halves of an industrial-sized tent. Wonder, at least momentarily, as to whether it'll ever be miniaturised down to...
