Threads is getting group chats as messaging rolls out to the EU

Instagram Threads has introduced group chats, allowing users to connect with up to 50 people. This feature is now available worldwide, including in the EU, where its launch was previously delayed. Users aged 18 and older can share content such as text posts, videos, GIFs, and emojis in these group chats. However, group chats are not encrypted. To start a group chat, users must follow the person who wants to add them, enhancing user comfort and reducing unwanted interactions. Users can name their group chats and will soon be able to invite others via a shared link. Over a third of daily Threads users follow fewer than half the accounts they follow on Instagram.

Final Fantasy Tactics – The Ivalice Chronicles director is a big PC gamer, and says he was ‘very particular’ about making sure they got the new UI just right

The remaster of The Ivalice Chronicles received a 91% review score and is now available on PC. Square Enix faced challenges in reviving the game due to the lack of the original source code. Director Kazutoyo Maehiro emphasized the importance of user comfort and optimizing the interface for PC players, while producer Shoichi Matsuzawa noted the scrutiny of minor details like scrolling speed. The game is compatible with the Steam Deck but is rated "Playable" instead of "Verified" due to text size issues. The script for Final Fantasy Tactics was updated to include new voice acting while maintaining its political commentary.
