Our World of Warcraft Forever hype is dampened by $30 elves: New Skyborne race locked behind expansion-tier purchase

World of Warcraft: Forever will include a significant portion of content with a standard WoW subscription, but the new Skyborne Elf race and its starter zone will cost an additional .99 through the Skyborne Hero Pack. This pack includes the elf race, a mount, cosmetics, housing decorations, and early name reservation. The pricing strategy aligns with industry standards, but some community members find it steep compared to other games. Historically, expansion packs have been priced around .99, while the most recent WoW expansion was priced at .99. Future classes in Forever may adopt a similar monetization strategy, which raises concerns among long-time fans about diverging from classic WoW principles.

Ashly Burch, voice of Horizon’s Aloy and star of Mythic Quest, is currently obsessed with Slay the Spire 2 and thinks videogames have too many stoic characters: ‘I want more sh*tty little b*tches’

Ashly Burch began her gaming journey with a Donkey Kong knockoff on her mother's typing practice computer and was significantly influenced by LucasArts' Day of the Tentacle. She gained recognition through the online sketch show Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin' and is known for her voice roles as Tiny Tina in Borderlands 2, Chloe in Life is Strange, Parvati Holcomb in The Outer Worlds, and Aloy in Guerrilla Games' Horizon series. Burch is currently working on a YouTube comedy series called I'm Happy You're Here, which aims to make mental health discussions more accessible. She is currently playing The Incident at Galley House, a detective game, and has uninstalled Fields of Mistria after spending many hours on it. Her Steam Deck still has Kentucky Route Zero installed, a game she hasn't finished due to its abstract nature. Burch has logged 270 hours in Slay the Spire and considers League of Legends, especially its ARAM mode, a game she will never uninstall. She uses Audacity for voice auditions and maintains a tidy desktop to support her creative process.

I’ve Been Gaming On Linux For Five Years – Is It Ready To Replace Windows?

Steam Deck debuted in early 2022 with SteamOS, a Linux-based operating system that uses the Wine-based Proton compatibility layer to run Windows games. This development has significantly advanced Linux gaming, with approximately 95% of games functioning well on Linux. Steam's Verified program lists nearly 9,000 Verified games, and around 30,000 playable titles, with only about 1% of popular games failing to run entirely. Anti-cheat systems remain a major limitation, preventing popular titles like "Fortnite" and "League of Legends" from being playable on Linux. Game streaming services like NVIDIA GeForce NOW offer alternatives for playing anti-cheat games on Linux. Linux distributions provide better controller support compared to Windows, particularly for handhelds and living room PCs. Accessing non-Steam games can be cumbersome, though tools like Heroic Launcher help. Compatibility issues with proprietary standards, such as HDMI 2.1 support, persist in Linux gaming.

PS5, Xbox, and PC AAA launch to shutdown after less than 1 year as mass community outrage ensues

Riot Games announced that support for its game 2XKO will conclude in December 2026, although servers will remain operational. A final update will introduce two new champions and address existing bugs, with refunds for any purchases made. The decision has sparked backlash from the community, with criticisms aimed at the company's focus on immediate profitability and a history of discontinuing projects. 2XKO joins other canceled titles like Hytale and 'Project F'. The upcoming MMORPG set in the League of Legends universe is scheduled for release in 2028 after being rebooted in 2024, but concerns about its potential fate persist.

Гас Поёт не прошёл отбор по документам: кто из кандидатов на временного главного тренера сборной Южной Кореи наиболее вероятен? — внимание сосредоточено на «испанской тройке»: Морено, Каса и Торрент.

The documentary selection for the interim head coach position of the South Korean national football team has concluded, with Gas Poiet not passing the selection process. The Korea Football Association announced the completion of the documentary selection on the 17th, noting that several coaches applied, but Poiet did not meet the requirements. Other candidates include former Spain national team head coach Roberto Moreno, Domenec Torrent, and Jesus Casa. The Korea Football Association plans to conduct online interviews with candidates who passed the documentary selection, although it remains unclear who those candidates are. The head coach position is currently vacant following the resignation of Hong Myung-bo after the team's performance at the 2026 World Cup. The association aims to appoint a permanent head coach by September to October of this year.
