The technology behind Half-Life, known as GoldSrc, is a modified version of the Quake engine, and remnants of Quake code are present in Valve's Source 2. A modder named KleskBY is developing a project called Libre-life, which aims to port elements from Half-Life into Quake source ports, particularly focusing on the Zircon Engine. KleskBY believes that older engines like GoldSrc have limitations that hinder creativity and prefers using Quake source ports over Xash3D, arguing that they offer capabilities that Xash does not. Libre-life is in early development, with progress including the reimplementation of all weapons from Half-Life 1. KleskBY uses AI extensively in the project, despite expressing strong negative opinions about AI's broader implications.

Players of Path of Exile 2 experienced frequent game freezes every 20 minutes since the early access launch, causing frustration and concern about character loss. A temporary workaround involved adjusting settings that reduced visual quality. Game director Jonathan Rogers identified a bug in the Nvidia driver as the root cause, which required specific reproduction steps. The release of NVIDIA Game Ready Driver 610.88 provided a fix for the long pauses during gameplay in DX12 mode, marking a resolution to the issue. This update allows developers to focus on optimizing other performance problems. The community is hopeful for a smoother experience leading up to the official 1.0 release later this year.
