Let me share some positive news for a change: Despite all the gloomy headlines today, my understanding is that there are multiple paths actively being explored that would save Arkane Lyon. Anything can happen during negotiations, but at this point I'd be surprised if the studio is shut down.

If you ever wondered why the first Dragon Age took over 6 years to develop (and almost got canceled), this article goes into partly why: the team couldn't agree on what *kind* of fantasy our new fantasy game was going to be. Yes, there's an alternate universe out there where it was more Conan. 😉

"Sexy sorceresses" and "bare-chested fighters": Dragon Age's original artists wanted to base it on Conan the Barbarian, much to the outrage of the designers https://bit.ly/4i5lW9Z

I’ve been playing both Control Resonant and Gears of War: E-Day this weekend. Really enjoying both. Along with all the hours I’ve put into Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave, I’m going to be pretty much shelving everything else until at least two of these are beaten.

"The problem is that taken together, none of this feels like strategy, and it certainly doesn't feel like a vision of what Xbox is actually going to be once this reset completes." 🎯

The Xbox reset doesn't have an end date, says Rob Fahey. Originally announced as spanning the "next hundred days", the reorganisation has now stretched past that with no end in sight, and no coherent vision of what comes next https://bit.ly/4rtxN6d

I saw the statement from Kojima Productions today — it doesn’t dispute any of our reporting so I don’t have much to add there. But I will add that (as I said a couple weeks ago), the Physint cancellation came after several months of negotiations between KoPro and Sony. Wasn’t exactly out of nowhere

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC, with DLSS 5 RenoDX mods enabled. With the right settings, it looks way better than the base game. But also, the latest mods help with some of the performance issues.
