The most deranged videogame challenge run I’ve seen: A no-hit playthrough of the ‘Unfair’ difficulty in a 100-hour RPG

Davey Gunface, a YouTuber, achieved a no-hit playthrough on the Unfair difficulty setting of Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. This game is known for its challenging nature, requiring skill and an understanding of build optimization. Gunface used a specific character build: Human Witch of the Veil 10 / Loremaster 9 / Rowdy Rogue 1, and employed strategies like sacrificing starter companions' builds to survive early levels. His journey includes notable characters like the Rowdy Rogue and Sabertooth Tiger pets. Gunface's full video documenting this achievement is three hours long and available on YouTube.

Star Citizen’s next update will switch focus to fixing its bug-riddled previous update, with bigger changes shunted to a later patch

Star Citizen's Alpha 4.8 update reset the game's universe and introduced new features but also caused a surge of bugs. Cloud Imperium Games (CIG) has reassessed its bug prioritization process, identifying nearly 100 critical issues affecting gameplay, with about 20% already addressed. The development team has temporarily paused work on some features to focus on stability, delaying the Siege of Orison event to update 4.10, scheduled for mid-August. The game has surpassed a billion in player funding, and the single-player component, Squadron 42, is set for a 2026 release.

Creative Assembly wants to know which factions you wish to play as in Total War: Medieval 3, but whatever you do, don’t ask to play as the Pope

Creative Assembly is developing Medieval 3, a new installment in the Total War series, which is currently in its early stages. The studio is engaging with fans through preproduction livestreams and a survey to gather input on which factions to include in the game. Key factors for faction inclusion are recognition, uniqueness of starting situation, and potential for distinctive gameplay mechanics. Certain factions, including England, France, the Holy Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, the Kingdom of Jerusalem, and the Sultanate of Rum, are confirmed, while feedback is sought for smaller factions like the Italian city-states, Scandinavian kingdoms, and notable Muslim nations. Factions that will not be included are the Russian Principalities, the Mongol Empire, and the Papal States, the latter being considered too unique in playstyle.
