Escape From Tarkov got a new wipe today, and it's not going down too well.The community is in open revolt in reaction to today's Hardcore Wipe, a sweeping patch that upends the extraction shooter's economy, format, and progression in a bid to slow things down. At least, that's how players are reading the decision to disable all maps but two, limit ammo crafting, and make core features like insurance wildly...

Two years after taking the reins as CEO of Twitter—now known as X—Linda Yaccarino has announced that she is stepping down. While Yaccarino did not share a reason for her surprise resignation, it comes less than 24 hours after X's AI-powered chatbot Grok posted messages including praise for Adolf Hitler and descriptions of violent rape."When @elonmusk and I first spoke of his vision for X, I knew it would be...

If you have, at any point, attempted to wrestle the PC version of Nier: Automata into submission, odds are you've downloaded and installed Special K, a graphics and performance enhancement suite that you can plug into all manner of games (both Niers, Elden Ring, Persona 4, and plenty else besides) to hopefully get them running a little smoother. It's been supplanted by other mods—at least for some games—over the years,...

PC Gamer recently dispatched Robert Zak to chat with the senior developers behind Deus Ex, in order to mark the 25th anniversary of a true classic. Among the many nuggets are that the initial pitch for the game starred Jake Shooter, supercop, and that the team never really thought that one of the most political games you could imagine was political at all.The story of Deus Ex's development is also...

The humble health bar is not made to be remembered.

I had a great time with Round 8 Studio and Neowiz's "puppet bloodborne"—not exceptional, but great.Lies of P did a lot of things I liked, but showed its smaller scope on occasion, which is no crime. Overall, I found it to be a really solid entry...

The fun thing about videogame patches—and I'm using "fun" in the definitely-ironic sense here—is that sometimes they'll cause new, interesting, and entirely unanticipated problems: Fix this, break that, it's the circle of life.
