Tekken 8 devs promise better after latest patch, but fans are in full doom mode

Players of Tekken 8 are expressing dissatisfaction with the game's recent developments, particularly regarding the Season 3 balance patch. Reactions on the game's subreddit indicate widespread discontent, with players feeling that Bandai Namco has not adequately addressed existing issues. Recent Steam reviews show only 24% positivity, leading to a "Mostly Negative" rating and an overall "Mixed" rating. Bandai Namco has issued an apology, acknowledging that the battle experience has not met player expectations and promising to create a balanced experience centered around the Heat system. An emergency patch is planned to address critical bugs, but significant balance adjustments are not expected until mid-April or late spring. The developers' approach to rolling out fixes sequentially has led to a lack of confidence among players, and the mention of balancing around the controversial Heat system may be seen as tone-deaf.

Microsoft woll allow to pause Windows updates

Microsoft is changing its update management policy for the Windows operating system to give users more control over when and how updates are installed. This shift comes after years of user dissatisfaction with the automatic update model implemented in 2015, which often led to unexpected system restarts and disruptions. The new policy allows users to pause updates indefinitely and choose when to install them, improving predictability and convenience. Additionally, Microsoft plans to enhance transparency by providing detailed notifications about updates before installation. While users generally welcome these changes, experts warn that delaying updates could increase vulnerability to cyber threats. Microsoft is also refining Windows 11 to improve speed and user interface, including updates to the integration of Copilot and restoring taskbar customization options.

Toby Fox says ‘most of the development team has moved on’ from Deltarune’s fifth chapter, as focus moves to bug fixes and translation

Toby Fox announced that professional testers are currently familiarizing themselves with Deltarune's Chapter 5, with formal testing starting on April 1st. The quality assurance for the Japanese translation is expected to finish in April. Most of the development team is currently focused on fixing bugs and translation issues rather than developing Chapter 5. The testing phase will last an unspecified duration, requiring console approvals and additional preparations before release. The gap between the first and second chapters was three years, and the wait for the dual release of chapters three and four was nearly four years, but the timeline for Chapter 5's release is expected to be shorter. It is speculated that there may be seven chapters in total. The first two chapters are available for free on Steam.

I Tested Crimson Desert on Every Recommended Graphics Card

Developers have increasingly used upscaling technologies like Nvidia’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR in PC gaming, but Crimson Desert has reasonable system requirements and does not always rely on upscaling. Testing showed that while lower-end graphics cards struggle, enabling FSR can improve frame rates significantly. The minimum specification for Crimson Desert includes an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060, and the game requires 16GB of memory across all configurations. The game performs well on various hardware, with the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT averaging 65 fps at Medium settings and the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT reaching 62 fps at Ultra in native 4K. The RTX 5090 achieved 95 fps at 4K without DLSS, and 338 fps with DLSS and Frame Generation. Crimson Desert is compatible with the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X, which has similar requirements to the GTX 1060, and it performs well on this handheld device. The game is noted for its optimization, allowing most modern graphics cards to run it effectively without upscaling, although it does have some bugs.

Crimson Desert is “too much in the best and worst ways,” and that’s exactly why it’s unforgettable

Crimson Desert, developed by Pearl Abyss, is set to release on March 19, 2026, priced at .99, and will be available on PC (Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. The game offers nearly 100 hours of gameplay and features a vast world with diverse activities, including competitive archery, outlaw tracking, investment banking, and brawling. Players can encounter nearly 100 different creatures, 34 crafting manuals, and 28 factions. Traveling the map can take about four hours on foot, but there are 28 different mounts to enhance exploration. The combat system includes around 30 attack combinations across melee, ranged, and magical options. Performance on Windows PCs is commendable, running smoothly on mid-range and high-end graphics cards, though some features may challenge lower-end systems. The character-swapping mechanic allows players to switch between characters for different missions, but it may feel underdeveloped. The narrative evolves from a tale of vengeance into a more intricate story with engaging set pieces and well-crafted dialogue.

Crimson Desert review – a beautiful, shallow world

Crimson Desert features a vast and visually stunning world but struggles with a conventional narrative framework. The combat system can feel cumbersome, especially during challenging boss encounters, leading to a sense of unfulfilled potential in exploration. The game follows a protagonist named Kliff Greymane, who seeks revenge against an antagonist, but after 50 hours, the main adversary remains elusive, and players engage in mundane tasks. Exploration is initially enticing, but it becomes constrained, with limited interactions and repetitive tasks. Combat mechanics blend elements from various genres, but boss battles introduce a significant difficulty spike that can frustrate players. Promotional materials promise thrilling gameplay elements, but the actual experience often falls short. While moments of joy can be found in exploring the Abyss network, the connection to the character Kliff is lacking, and the narrative becomes convoluted over time. Despite its vibrant world and visual splendor, the game may leave players wanting more due to restricted exploration and busywork.

Microsoft Won’t Auto-Install Microsoft 365 Copilot App on Windows 11 Anymore After Backlash

Microsoft has decided against the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot App on Windows 11 by default, influenced by user feedback. The automatic installation, planned for December 2025, is temporarily disabled, while existing installations remain unaffected. Admins can still deploy the app through other methods. The Microsoft 365 Copilot App is a rebranded version of the Microsoft 365 / Office Hub, which was initially intended to be automatically installed alongside the regular Copilot App. This decision faced backlash from users who preferred an opt-in option rather than automatic installations. In response, Microsoft is focusing on resolving existing bugs and enhancing core features in Windows 11, indicating a shift from its previous "AI-everywhere" strategy.
