I had the chance to try out an early version of the game, and after playing for many hours over the past few weeks, I’m really impressed. Not only does Where Winds Meet have a lot of great content, but it often offers more than you’d expect from a free-to-play game – it’s expansive without feeling rushed or low-quality. Overall, it’s exceeded my expectations, although there are a few minor issues I’ll mention later.
Dedicated fans have already gotten a taste of Starsand Island thanks to a demo released on Steam from October 8th to 21st. Even though it was just a small part of the unfinished game, players generally liked the ability to customize things and the anime-style graphics, though many wished the demo had included more content.
I’ve noticed a shift on Crunchyroll lately. While One Piece used to dominate the ratings, Solo Leveling has taken the lead – and it’s done so with only 25 episodes! A lot of people are now calling Solo Leveling the top anime on the platform, but even though it’s incredibly popular, One Piece is still a much larger phenomenon overall. It’s still the most illegally downloaded anime, and the manga continues to be the best-selling worldwide.
The team has long-term plans for supporting Battlefield 6, and the first season is already in progress. A major update is scheduled for November 18th, with another coming on December 9th. As an online game that’s regularly updated, Battlefield 6’s player numbers are expected to change. However, many players might be surprised by just how much the player count has fallen since its peak last month.
To switch to exploration mode or third-person view in Anno 117: Pax Romana, press these keys:
It began with @0xCryptoCobie yelling “$1B sold!” like a crypto Cassandra. Then Rachid Wynn echoed it, because nothing says “trust” like repeating rumors. 🚨
We recently overlooked some changes to the drop rate for items from Security Lockers. The team at ARC Raiders knows this impacts players focusing on that particular skill tree, and community lead Ossen shared on Discord that they’re looking into adding a way to reset skills. Players have been requesting a skill reset feature since the game launched, and it sounds like it might finally be happening.
In Anno 117: Pax Romana, each island allows players to support only one patron deity. The more faith the population has in a deity, the stronger that deity’s overall impact will be. To get the most out of your deities, players should choose ones that complement each island’s strengths and how it produces goods.
The Department of Justice (or as some call it, the folks with the big gavel) said Ford, a sprightly 36 years old, will spend 60 months behind bars, and he’s also on the hook for over a million bucks, plus a small mountain of restitution. All this because he led an investment scheme that duped 2,800 folks of their savings from January to August of 2023-more than a few lost their shirts, boots, and probably their patience.
When you start playing Ashes of the Damned, prioritize getting ‘Critical Kills’ – eliminate zombies with headshots. These earn you 115 Essence (points) each, which is 25 more than a standard kill. Once you’ve collected 1,250 Essence, go south of where you spawned to Janus Towers Plaza and unlock the Server Room. Inside, look for a grate on the floor in the southwest corner. Break it open with a melee attack to reveal T.E.D.D.’s Head. Pick it up and take it to Ol’ Tessie, the truck parked outside the Server Room. Interacting with Ol’ Tessie while you have T.E.D.D.’s Head will activate her as a drivable vehicle. Ol’ Tessie is crucial for navigating this map, so stick close to her!
