How to Conquer Bastion Remnants in Minecraft? | Esports News – The Times of India

Venturing into the Nether in Minecraft after the 1.16 update introduces Bastion Remnants, which contain hidden lava pits, aggressive Piglins, and treasures like Netherite Scraps and the Pigstep music disc. Players need to prepare with Netherite or Diamond Armor, a Golden Armor piece, a shield, and regeneration supplies. Bastions primarily spawn in the Nether Wastes and Crimson Forests, and players should avoid Basalt Deltas. Combat tactics include identifying Piglin Brutes, using a bottleneck strategy, and distracting regular Piglins with gold ingots. Players should avoid mining gold blocks or opening chests without securing the area first. Key loot includes Netherite Scraps, enchanted books, and the Pigstep disc. Advanced tactics involve using Respawn Anchors, managing Hoglins, and creating escape routes with blocks.

From an Aztez god to Minecraft star. Why does Mexico love the axolotl so much?

The axolotl, scientifically known as Ambystoma mexicanum, is a critically endangered amphibian that serves as a symbol of identity and resilience for the native people of Mexico. It is particularly significant in the context of the chinampas, ancient floating gardens in Xochimilco. The axolotl has gained international fame through popular culture, including its inclusion in the video game Minecraft and its depiction on the 50-peso bill by the Central Bank. In Mesoamerican mythology, the axolotl is linked to the god Xólotl and the myth of the Fifth Sun. Biologically, the axolotl can regenerate parts of its heart, spinal cord, and brain, and has dual breathing capabilities through gills and skin. It can live up to 15-20 years in captivity, compared to a few years in the wild due to habitat degradation. The health of the axolotl is closely tied to the condition of its habitat, which faces pollution and urbanization threats. Conservation efforts are essential for both the axolotl and the chinampas, highlighting the importance of community involvement in preserving these cultural and ecological treasures.

10 biggest console-exclusive games that make me wish I wasn’t a PC gamer

PC gaming has a vast library, but exclusivity still attracts gamers. Several acclaimed games remain unavailable on PC due to various reasons. 1. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - High odds of being released; originally a PlayStation title, known for its exploration and iconic protagonist. 2. God Hand - Practically none; a 2006 PlayStation 2 exclusive with a unique combat system. 3. Mega Man Legends & Legends 2 - Basically zero; dormant series with a passionate fanbase but poor sales. 4. Silent Hill - Possible, but unlikely; a hallmark of survival horror with no modern platform release yet. 5. Pokémon Conquest - Absolutely not; a Nintendo DS exclusive with ties to Nobunaga's Ambition. 6. The Last Guardian - Not likely, but a chance exists; known for its emotional narrative and visuals. 7. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo doesn’t have to; successful on the Switch, likely to remain exclusive. 8. Super Mario Party Jamboree - Less than zero; relies on motion controls, making a PC adaptation unlikely. 9. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots - Higher than you might think, but not great; technical challenges hinder potential releases. 10. Bloodborne - Definitely coming soon (maybe, probably not though); ongoing rumors about a potential PC release.

It’s been a decade since Endless Legend, the 4X genre’s most inventive weirdo and the closest thing we’ve got to a modern Alpha Centauri, launched—we’re long overdue another one

The 4X genre remains popular among gamers, with Endless Legend, released a decade ago by Amplitude Studios, being a standout title that combines sci-fi and fantasy elements. It is set on the diverse planet Auriga, featuring various factions and unique fauna. Recent games like Humankind and Old World have prompted discussions about the genre's evolution, with Humankind being criticized for its derivative nature and Old World praised for its innovation. Amplitude Studios recently parted ways with Sega, raising uncertainty about a potential sequel to Endless Legend. The game is currently available at a discount, priced just over £5, with the entire Endless series (excluding Endless Dungeon) available for under £20.
