A huge catalog of all-time greats are just waiting to be played After years of being a skeptic about Microsoft’s overall strategy in the console and overall gaming realm, I’m now a true believer. The company took bold and unique steps with the Xbox One, after its struggles to gain a true foothold early in this generation’s console war against Sony’s PlayStation 4. Shifting away from the exclusives that were the focus of so many consoles while simultaneously changing the very definition of a “generation”; it all seemed so crazy....

If you have ever wanted a game to take pity on your terrible luck, then Genshin Impact has you covered. The free-to-play game contains a gacha system that gives you new characters, weapons, and other goodies. Rather than have you smack your head off a brick wall getting endless low rolls, the game will realize when you are having some poor luck and swing the odds in your favor. The overall view is that every 90 wishes will result in a guaranteed 5 Star, and every 10 wishes will guarantee a 4 Star....

The free-to-play platform fighter Brawlhalla makes it pretty tough to play with friends.

Instead, what you can do is change the priority of a job you want them to do, effectively assigning them to it....

While Quick Resume is one of the nicest features to come with the Xbox Series X|S, its functionality is really early still, so bugs are bound to happen.

That being said, there is a bug when playing Halo Infinite’s campaign that is attached to Quick Resume....

The Broodmother Lysrix is the first boss that players should look at summoning and defeating within The Island on their journey towards unraveling the mystery of their apparent prison. With simple dungeons to be cleared and a straightforward boss fight, Lysrix is a relatively easy means of introducing how boss progression works within ARK: Survival Evolved.

As you slaughter your way through Torghast in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, you’re bound to come across an Empowered Mawsworn Flametender (EMF). Unlike their non-empowered counterparts, this elite is an absolute chore to deal with if you’re not prepared. The EMF has the unfortunate (for you) ability to heal itself, potentially back to full health, with Inner Flames. It’s crucial for you to have something that can interrupt this cast. Priests can take advantage of Catharstick, which you can use to store up the damage you take before casting Shadow Word: Pain to unleash a massive hit....

Expect to farm a lot of Nargacuga in both the early and mid-game of Monster Hunter Rise, as their armor and weapons have some of the best stats for progression. Between early access to blue and white sharpness for your weapons and high-tier perks like Critical Eye, Evade Extender, and Evade Window, few equipment sets do quite as much quite so well. Specific Nargacuga gear is even a good option at endgame and meta levels, and it can carry you a good deal of the way there, to boot....
