(Image credit: Veddge)It rules that we still don't know who made myhouse.wad. The surreal, unsettling Doom mod had a sort of ARG-lite element to it: The mod's original creator is said to have died, with Veddge, the uploader, either having expanded on something he left behind—or, more troublingly, having found the haunted map among the original creator's possessions.I love it as a bit of creepypasta storytelling, but what makes me...
Los Santos CustomsI'm modding GTA 5 every day in a quest to either transform it into a PC version of GTA 6 or break it entirely. Come back tomorrow to find out what new horrible thing I've done to Rockstar's baby, or check out what I got up to earlier.Disregard that other thing I said. Grand Theft Auto 5 no longer only launches in windowed mode. It now only launches...
Critical Role's 4th's campaign is in full swing, and this past episode we followed the schemer's table—for those not in the know, this campaign's a "West Marches" style adventure, where the stacked cast of 13 players split off into their own groups. The schemer's table, so named because of the political scheming it's involved in, just spent four and a half hours spinning out last week as the chickens came...
I was brought up with the mindset that when you start something you should see it through to the end, even if it gets a bit tricky. So perhaps that's why Resident Evil dropping its in-built Roman numerals irks me so. It all started with Resident Evil: 7 Biohazard where the Roman numerals for seven were shoved into the 'Evil' and then continued with Resident Evil: Village. So, in the...
Are you aware of Oh!Ware? I'm guessing not. The deckbuilder has been on Steam for about a week as of this writing, with a humble 23 reviews to its name so far. It caught my eye though, because the fundamental mechanic underneath the very 2026 trappings of a roguelike structure and marbles standing in for cards is mancala—a slightly older board game you probably played at some point in your...

Don't mind me: I'm just seething over not being able to actually hang out in Deadlock's occult New York for real. As Elie noted earlier today, Deadlock's latest update made its map even more arresting, fleshing out Valve's accursed big apple with new district stylings and reworked lanes.ValveValveValveDeadlock's world is so refreshingly flavorful that not being able to explore it in person almost feels like an injustice. I want to...
Deadlock's massive new update isn't a sign of an imminent public release, according to the MOBA's first proper development update. The invite-only game continues to grow in scope and polish, but Valve says there's still a lot of work to do."We think building a multiplayer game is very hard and risky, and the best way to minimize that risk [is] to make sure that we are able to have it...
Nivalis Nights Everyone's been waiting years for this cyberpunk "slice of life" and shop sim and I'm logging my nightly progress as my noodle bar empire begins. I enjoy a good shop sim, especially when there's decorating to do too. Nivalis Nights is moody and neon-drenched and has a deeper shop finances simulation than I was expecting. I may be sinking a lot of hours into this! Songs of Glimmerwick...
I kinda wish Deadlock wasn't a MOBA—not because I don't play MOBAs, you understand. I have a misspent youth of over 2,400 hours in Dota 2 and 340 of the suckers in Deadlock itself. I know ball. Rather, I think Deadlock's universe and characters are so damn charming that I'd love for more people to know about them, and the MOBA genre is kinda unassailable.And while the recent major Deadlock...
