I didn’t expect this massive game to underline the PS5 Pro’s one weakness compared to PC

The Blood of Dawnwalker is developed by Rebel Wolves, a studio with seasoned developers who previously worked on The Witcher 3. The game was launched in early September and has received positive feedback, particularly from players using high-performance PCs, like the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, due to potential performance issues on consoles. Players take on the role of Coen, a young man in a 14th-century valley ruled by a vampire warlord, the Vrakhir, who demands blood donations from villagers. Coen's journey begins when he discovers his family has been abducted and he has been transformed into a semi-vampire, allowing him to switch between human and Vrakhir forms, leading to a narrative filled with intrigue and conflict.

Wardogs players are actively avoiding one team in particular: ‘They are literally the dumbest people on the planet’

Players in the game Wardogs exhibit a strong aversion to the Blue faction, Lonestar, often chanting “Anything but blue” during team selection. This sentiment is reflected in community discussions, with humorous posts highlighting Lonestar's sparse player roster and rebranding factions based on difficulty levels. Anecdotal evidence suggests that players actively avoid joining Blue, resulting in delays for matches to start. In matches played as Lonestar, players report overwhelming defeats, with opposing teams quickly establishing fortified positions. Theories explaining Lonestar's negative reputation include its conspicuous blue attire, a strategic disadvantage due to its starting position, and a self-fulfilling prophecy where negative experiences lead to fewer players choosing Blue.
