Mina the Hollower has a secret ending, but good luck seeing it

To unlock the secret ending in Mina the Hollower, players must avoid specific actions that would lead the final boss, Lionel, to accuse Mina of wrongdoing. The prohibitions include: - Sealing the Duke in the crypt - Defeating the Mock Moon boss - Using the train outside of its initial visit to Coltrane Peak - Engaging in any activity that harms another character - Restoring the Hollower Guild - Viewing the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the game's start - Acquiring the fishing rod - Destroying lamps or candles Players must also complete certain tasks: - Requesting Cappy's companionship after the opening ship crash - Rescuing the three children in Septemburg - Providing bones to all beggars who seek assistance Successfully navigating these requirements leads to Lionel inviting Mina to join him on a new quest, unlocking the secret ending. It is recommended that players experience the main storyline fully before attempting to uncover the secret ending due to its difficulty and potential to miss rewarding side quests.

How PlayStation And PC Games Shape Reward Systems

PlayStation and PC gaming ecosystems both aim to make progress feel worthwhile through various rewards, including trophies, cosmetics, and seasonal items. PlayStation rewards are typically clear and straightforward, linking effort to outcomes, while PC rewards offer more choice and personalization, often involving community-created content. Cosmetics play a significant role on both platforms, allowing for personal expression without affecting gameplay balance. The trophy system on PlayStation fosters social interaction and is integral to the console experience, while PC rewards can create a vibrant market culture based on item rarity and demand. Battle passes are bridging the gap between the two systems by introducing seasonal content and objectives. Random rewards, which rely on chance, require careful navigation to ensure players maintain control over their spending. Effective reward systems are characterized by generosity, clarity, and fairness, guiding players toward goals without creating a sense of entrapment. The divide between PlayStation and PC rewards is narrowing, with both platforms increasingly adopting elements from each other to enhance the gaming experience.

Microsoft patches record 198 Windows bugs in June update – and 3 are zero days

Microsoft's latest Patch Tuesday addressed 198 security vulnerabilities, the most extensive update in recent memory. Among these, 32 flaws are classified as critical, and three are zero-day vulnerabilities. The updates are detailed in KB articles: KB5094126 for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2, KB5093998 for version 23H2, and KB5094127 for Windows 10. The updates will automatically download and install, but users must verify their installation status and reboot their computers for changes to take effect. The vulnerabilities addressed this month are attributed to advancements in artificial intelligence, with companies like Microsoft leveraging AI models to expedite the identification and resolution of security flaws. The three zero-day vulnerabilities include one that allows an attacker to gain Windows System privileges through a flaw in file link resolution, another that could facilitate a denial-of-service attack via an HTTP vulnerability, and a third related to a flaw in Windows BitLocker that could enable data capture from an unpatched PC. Additionally, the update introduces new features to Windows 11, including new Secure Boot certificates, a Low Latency Profile for enhanced performance, support for shared audio devices for multiple Bluetooth connections, webcam functionality across multiple applications, and the ability to assign a custom name to the user folder during setup.
