But they're not really interested in filling the vacuum either because it's a really, really expensive thing to do and they've seen that the return on investment is kinda shit. For China, they're pretty much interested in securing their trade routes - that's it. They're not looking to be "world police" and they're more than willing to cut deals with nefarious characters to make that happen. Russia knows that it will never be a globally dominant force and they're totally OK with that. All Moscow wants is to ensure that there is no one dominant hyperpower but that the world has a bunch of major powers of which they are just one. And most importantly for Russia, they want a sphere of influence in Eastern Europe and the "Stans", but no global ambitions beyond that.

Since EA got the Star Wars license in 2013 they've: - Kinda/sorta kept a WoW clone barely above water - produced a pair of mildly interesting, quickly forgotten multiplayer FPS titles, one of which generated so much controversy that it's had a tangible impact on the industry both commercially and politically - canceled a high-profile single-player title that produced a whopping 10 seconds of gameplay footage of a guy walking and closed the studio that was developing it - vaguely discussed a title in development at Respawn Entertainment which will have a release date of Ares knows when Yeah, I'd imagine Disney/Lucasfilm must have had some informal discussions with other big publishers at this point.

In a story from Sweden's Di Digital that we've independently translated, over 40 employees have left the 400-people strong company in 2018, making that a departure of almost 10 percent of the company. The figure was gleaned from Linkedin but sources told Di Digital that 40 is on the low end of reported departures from the company.

Gaming Accessories What do you think of gaming chairs?

I would suggest looking at used high-quality office chairs such as Aerons. -
Offering a pro-EU stance, a humane approach to migration and clear positions on existential issues such as climate change, biodiversity and sustainability, Green parties in several countries are now polling higher nationally than the traditional centre-left.

PC Gamer - 90% Return of the Obra Dinn is a stunningly clever thing and one of the best puzzle games on PC. It not only presents you with a vast, complex, and interconnected mystery to solve, but trusts in your intelligence enough to let you do it yourself with almost no hints, markers, or guides interfering in the process. Few games have this much confidence in the player, and it’s a deeply satisfying experience as a result, even if I did occasionally feel like I’d hit a dead end.

Eurogamer - Recommended Those initial concerns I had about Thronebreaker have vanished. Thronebreaker has proven a card game can be gripping, entertaining and powerful in a way I hadn't realised was possible. It's CD Projekt Red going above and beyond again - pushing things to another level with lavish care, attention and talent. Thronebreaker isn't a blockbuster, but it has the heart of one. I am smitten.

Hicks said that for him, the major difference between Valve’s 30 percent and Microsoft or Sony’s 30 percent was in the level of personal support and care the companies provided. “Sony and Microsoft both provided me with personal contacts that I can pitch ideas to. They also provide contacts to pitch things regarding marketing [...] so if I have an idea for a cool promotion I can at least talk to someone about it,” Hicks explained. “Additionally, they do everything they can to provide each game with a nice chunk of store visibility at launch.” Now THAT is on Valve to improve.

Some of those issues -- especially those related to setting the regional pricing -- should be the developer's responsibility, not Valve's.

Kickstarter campaign page Official site Realms Beyond: Ashes of the Fallen is inspired by the classic RPGs of the 80s and 90s, taking the best elements of the beloved old classics and reforging them into something new in a powerful modern engine. In Realms Beyond, you will find the tactical turn-based combat of the Gold Box Games, Temple of Elemental Evil and Dark Sun, the world exploration and camp management of Realms of Arkania, the interactivity and living world of Ultima, the choice-driven quests and reactivity of Fallout and Arcanum, and the rich NPC interaction of Baldur’s Gate and Planescape Torment, along with fresh new features that haven’t been seen before in the genre.
