Guy Beahm, better known as Dr Disrespect, tweeted from his personal account for the first time in 3 years to address the situation in the E3 bathroom that caused his Twitch account to be suspended for 2 weeks. The statement, posted in a TwitLonger, is brief, concise, and addresses the incident by taking responsibility for what happened and apologizing. The humility displayed by Beahm in this statement is diametrically opposed to the brash and unapologetic personality of Dr Disrespect; Beahm is clearly reinforcing the distinction between the character Dr Disrespect and the actor Guy Beahm....

Dragon Age 4 has a lot of loose plot-threads to tie up from previous games. The origins of the darkspawn, the true nature of red lyrium, the existence or non-existence of the Maker, and the fates of some major characters have yet to be revealed, leaving many fans hopeful that the next game in the long-running fantasy franchise will return with some answers. One major plot-thread which the Dragon Age series has yet to fully address is the Calling....

Players of Dungeons & Dragons tend to focus on their stats to ensure they can kill any dragon they stumble upon in any dungeon. However, more creative players of D&D know roleplaying their characters can help transform their game world into a living, breathing story. Moreover, unique personalities and quirks add much-needed spice to make any Player Character memorable to the rest of the party. Players might find it easier to make creative characters through the use of Backgrounds....

While many will no doubt know EA Motive for its work on last year’s Star Wars Squadrons, the team has been working on a much bigger project over the last six years. Codenamed “Gaia,” a trailer teasing the game at last summer’s EA Play claimed it was an “ambitious and innovative new game that puts the power and creativity in your hands.” Gaia was first shown to the world in 2015, with it being announced that former Assassin’s Creed and Watch Dogs developer Jade Raymond would be overseeing the project....

FromSoftware games tend to feature deep and intentionally confusing lore. Gamers and theorists are still trying to piece together the story and backstory of Dark Souls and Bloodborne, and Elden Ring continues that proud tradition by offering a narrative full of fascinating facts that are surprisingly easy to miss. Elden Ring‘s basic story is surprisingly straightforward: Players have to gather the Great Runes and reassemble the Elden Ring to become the next Elden Lord....

Last week, a trailer started circulating online of Elden Ring, the first one since its original announcement at 2019’s E3. Initially leaked to VGC, the leakers also told the publication that “production has been significantly hampered by remote working restrictions,” possibly hinting at another delay. Bloomberg confirmed the possibility of a delay but said that the game should be getting shown relatively soon. March was the initial reveal date set to coincide with a Microsoft presentation, but it seems that the presentation has either been put on hold or has been totally eclipsed by the Bethesda/Microsoft presentation that is rumored to be held tomorrow....

After several years of, let’s say, improved taste, the Emmy Awards backslid a bit last year. Sure, it was nice to see Fleabag get the recognition it deserved. But that recognition came along with a Game of Thrones final season onslaught that nobody asked for. With Thrones firmly in the rearview, the 2020 Emmy Awards have a chance to welcome in some new blood. And with an eclectic list of first-time nominees like The Mandalorian, The Morning Show, and Watchmen they may be able to do just that!...

A couple years ago, it would have seemed absurd to imagine that someone could become an instant millionaire by winning a competitive gaming tournament. A week ago, however, 5 Americans did exactly that, as Evil Geniuses walked away the champions at Valve’s annual The International Dota 2 tournament. The team persevered over many tournament favorites, taking home their share of the over $18 million prize pool. That kind of underdog story is something very familiar to fans of more traditional sports like baseball and football....

Ewan McGregor appears to be in high spirits concerning his highly anticipated return to the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi. The upcoming series based on his character from the Star Wars films is set to start shooting next year and McGregor says he’s excited for the show’s possibilities. The currently unnamed project was officially announced by Disney in 2019 to stream on Disney+, further confirming McGregor’s involvement shortly afterward. While Disney has given few plot details, McGregor has mentioned in interviews that it will be set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope....

With the release of the Wastelanders update, public perception has reversed on Fallout 76. What was once decried as the death of the series (and even Bethesda) is now being championed as a return to form. Not wishing to let that praise die down, Bethesda has announced the 2020 roadmap for the MMO-lite title and it promises a bunch of big changes. The largest addition has to be the introduction of season passes....

Color us confused. White Cat Project developer, Colopl, has announced that the mobile action RPG – also known as Shiro Neko Project – will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch in 2020. The confusing part? Colopl is the same company that Nintendo filed a lawsuit against in January of this year, citing five potential patent infringements. The announcement from Colopl came during the game’s 4th anniversary live stream, which raised eyebrows considering the impending lawsuit....

About a couple of weeks ago, the Japanese video game publisher and developer Capcom decided to provide Devil May Cry 5 fans with a better idea as to when they would be able to experience the action-adventure game’s free addition of the Bloody Palace as DLC. That day has finally arrived, with April 1, 2019 officially marking the moment as to when DMC5 players can finally walk through the game mode’s now-opened doors....

Diablo 4 was announced last year in November and fans are eager to return to their favorite hack-and-slash dungeon crawler series. So far, 3 classes for the next edition of Diablo have been unveiled with a decent amount of detail. 2 other classes have yet to be revealed for Diablo 4, but so far players are analyzing what they know. The Barbarian class had been a staple of the Diablo franchise since the beginning....

When Bandai Namco announced Digimon Survive a few years back, I, along with others who adored the series growing up, was totally thrilled at the prospect of a brand new style of adventure with our digital friends. Bandai Namco has had a good track record in the past few years with games such as Cyber Sleuth and Digimon World Next Order, so when it started to tease a game with a brand new theme altogether, people were thrilled....

Johnny Depp’s defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard made big news for much of 2020, and it doesn’t look like it’ll be getting less messy anytime soon. Deadline reports Heard has now submitted subpoenas to the Los Angeles Police Department as well as the Walt Disney Motion Picture Group, asking for any incriminating evidence they may have on her ex-husband. She’s even attempting to get a virtual deposition from Disney next month about anything they might find....

Players of Larian Studios’ Divinity: Original Sin will likely praise the game not just for its solid narrative, but dynamic combat offerings. After all, while the game series has its own turn-based combat system, both Original Sin and Divinity: Original Sin 2 allows players to use their characters’ abilities inside and outside of combat. Moreover, these abilities - called Skills - range from all things offensive, defensive, and even support abilities....

Glitches are bound to hit even the best of games, but some are far stranger than others. Recently, a group of gamers witnessed unusual kill capabilities in Tom Clancy’s The Division, in which multiple opponents were taken out with only a handful of shots. One player dug a little deeper and found a glitch in The Division that unlocked and showed active the entirety of the game’s talent list on one weapon....

Sony has been catching a lot of heat from gamers as of late for its exclusives, so why doesn’t Nintendo get the same treatment for doing what appears to be the same thing? The issue of platform exclusives is nothing new. However, it has reared its head in a major way over the course of the past month. It was revealed that Spider-Man will come to Marvel’s Avengers in 2021. However, he will only swing onto the screens of those who plan to play the game on PS4/PS5....

Most video game fans know just how influential the original Doom games were, not only to the first-person shooter genre, but to video games as a whole. As such, the Doom modding community is huge, often creating amazing mods for Doom and Doom 2 that completely change the game. Now, one modder going by the name Szuran has showcased another incredible Doom 2 mod called “He Came From Beyond.” What makes this Doom 2 mod really stand out is its art style, as the mod looks like it’s completely made out of sticky notes with hand-drawn graphite textures....
