From the archives: This interview was originally published 10 years ago this month in PC Gamer #293 (UK, July 2016), and conducted not long after the release of Stardew Valley. You can see how developer Eric Barone was just realizing how life-changing Stardew would prove to be, and many of the game's now-beloved features, like multiplayer, were still to come in the future.Also check out out 2025 interview with Barone...
If Steam is struggling to load on your PC or phone, it's not just you. The store is currently struggling, with multiple issues shown on SteamStat.us. Currently the store and community pages are reflecting a "Very Slow" status, with several regional servers overloaded and Deadlock's multiplayer API reflecting an Internal Server Error. The Steam API itself seemns to be flickering between normal and offline. The store and community are also...
Back in 2013, EVE Online creator CCP Games attempted an ambitious FPS to tie in with its legendary galactic economics MMO. Dust 514 didn't end up having legs—not the least because it was a PS3 exclusive—but the developer, now known as Fenris Creations, didn't give up on the vision.Fenris' London office is carrying on the cherished (in certain circles) memory of Dust 514 with EVE Vanguard, whose developers hope to...
There are, somehow, those of us who still haven't played the hit 2023 RPG Baldur's Gate 3, and I know that because someone asked My Chemical Romance front man Gerard Way at a recent concert.As spotted by IGN, the question came via a large paper sign made by fan KatanaLuciana, who recorded the interaction for TikTok.

It took all of one day for Marvel Rivals to enrage players after the release of season 9 with a new, unasked for, and slightly confusing patch. It buffed tons of heroes some of which in no way needed a helping hand. "Our temporal scanners have been working overtime, analyzing battlefield telemetry and listening to chatter from you, the community," a blog post explains. "We've seen the meta shifting, and...
Earlier today I reported that Chinese memory makers, such as CXMT, are ramping up their production big time, and are set to run hot on the heels of Micron in output even by the end of this year. But hold up, don't get too excited, because the same research that produced those figures also predicts "the 2030 DRAM squeeze" matching the SK hynix CEO's warnings from earlier in the week.As...
Finding Ancient Bone in Palworld is rather tricky if you haven't clocked that each of the three ancient materials come from the wildlife sanctuaries dotted around the islands. These areas are easy to recognise because of the big shield domes protecting them, but that does mean you have to sneak about and avoid their protectors while doing your illicit mining.Only one of these sanctuaries contains Ancient Bone, though, so you'll...
Hot off the news that repair shops have gained access to leaked internal Nvidia tools to gather RTX 50-series hotspot data, CPUID's HWMonitor has added its own hotspot thermal tracking info in the latest update.Version 1.65 adds two hotspot sensor data rows within the graphics card column for RTX 50-series cards, right underneath the traditional GPU and memory average temperature data.

GOG is very good at two things: Bringing old games to modern PCs, and telling everyone that its games are DRM-free so you can do whatever you want with them. So I was not terribly shocked when GOG weighed in on Sony's decision to stop producing game discs in 2028 with a little note reminding its followers on X that they can just DIY this stuff if they want."Download the...
