  The new Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Tera Raid is here, and it's not doing any favors for this generation's reputation of bugs and glitches.When the new Tera Raid launched, players were still able to join the event even if they had not downloaded the 1.2.0 update. For anybody who popped in on an old version, you wouldn't see the new Walking Wake and Iron Leaves Legendaries - instead, there'd just be an egg. You could catch the egg, but catching the egg would lock you out of actually catching the n

  28-02-2023 23:30

That’s not surprising, though, considering the game’s combat director is Ryota Suzuki, a former Capcom developer with nearly 20 years of experience designing the action in games like Marvel vs. Cap

  28-02-2023 22:30
  
  After previewing Final Fantasy XVI for roughly two hours, which you can read about here, I’m left most interested in the different styles of combat happening throughout the game. Clive has his own style of Devil May Cry-esque combat, party members controlled by A.I. up the ante, Clive’s dog Torgal can attack enemies, Clive can fight Eikons, and there are even Eikon vs. Eikon fights. It’s a lot for one game to juggle, and after my relatively short preview, I feel that the team i

• Final Fantasy 16 Designers Discuss Why The Series Hasn’t Been Turn-Based For A While

  28-02-2023 20:00
  
  The Final Fantasy series’ numbered entries haven’t been turn-based RPGs for quite some time. With each new game, the series moves further away from its classic turn-based roots toward a more action-oriented combat system. Combat has never been further from being turn-based in a Final Fantasy game more so than in Final Fantasy XVI, which is the most action-based game in the mainline franchise yet. I recently played about two hours of the game to dive deeper into the combat system&rsqu

It's a spectacle, with the massive summon towering over me and all but eclipsing the stature of protagonist Clive Rosfield.
