There are thousands of Skyrim mods out there, I’ve played a fair few myself, but one player has gone a step further and ported the entire vanilla game into Unreal Engine 5, completely changing the possibilities for future mods.Greg Coulthard released a video to their YouTube channel showing off how the 13-year-old game looks in Unreal Engine 5. To be honest, I don’t think it looks better or worse, per se, but it definitely looks more real. A visual enhancement isn’t what Coulthard is going for, though. The video’s description reads: “All assets are Vanilla. My goal wasn’t to upgrade graphics…

Blood of Dawnwalker devs explain how the vampire RPG’s “narrative sandbox” builds on what they were “known for crafting” in games like The Witcher 3
Former CD Projekt Red veterans have explained how their new vampiric RPG, made at a new studio Rebel Wolves, is building on their past work from games like The Witcher 3.The Witcher 3’s lead quest designer Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, who’s now the creative director on Blood of the Dawnwalker, explained the game’s “narrative sandbox” philosophy in an interview in the latest issue of PC Gamer Magazine. “It’s how we allow you, the player, to interact with it,” he said. “So the core of it is maximizing players’ agency and freedom of choice, while, at the same time delivering the high-quality narratives…
If you want Fallout: New Vegas to look a little more lived-in, these mods have you covered
Fallout: New Vegas was famously released in a bit of a state. While subsequent patches dealt with the worst of the quest-breaking bugs and stability issues, there was another problem with the Nevada Wasteland. A lot of it looked suspiciously empty, and not in a post-apocalyptic way. More of a “we didn’t have time to finish the clutter pass” kind of way.A series of recent mods from Qolore7 have been addressing that by adding furniture, garden planters, water towers, outhouses, cooking fires, posters, and rugs that really tie the room together to various locations. So far Qolore7 is responsible for…
However, the surprising success of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands and the Borderlands 4 team’s early promise to go bigger and better in every way with this game certainly suggests that they are aware of this franchise’s need to grow (and perhaps change a little bit). Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Platforms: Nintendo Switch, Windows PC, PlayStation 4 With a mix of classic 2D and 3D style games, fans of classic Capcom arcade-style games have a lot to look forward to with Capcom Fighting Collection 2. Including titles such as Capcom vs. SNK, Capcom vs. SNK 2, Power Stone, Power Stone 2, Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper, and more,…
Summary First-person RPG combat has evolved from spell-slinging to looter-shooter mechanics, each offering immersive gameplay. Games like BioShock and Cyberpunk 2077 prove that a first-person perspective can enhance RPG thrills and intensity. Innovations in first-person zombie combat, intricate sword-fighting mechanics, and medieval warfare settings redefine RPG experiences. Now that Avowed has been released, the gaming world’s focus is back on the big-budget first-person RPG and how it has evolved and changed in its decades-long lifespan. Though it can be janky, it’s hard to deny how immersive it can be when done right, even resulting in some of the most satisfying…
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s director says ‘I respect the modding community’ and uses mods himself, though he still thinks we shouldn’t use ones that ‘detract from the intended game experience’
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s director Naoki Hamaguchi caused a stir last December when he asked modders “not to create or install anything offensive or inappropriate” for the second part of the RPG’s remake, which just launched on PC. While he didn’t specify what was “offensive or inappropriate”, such a broad statement would certainly cover nude mods, which are as inevitable in PC gaming as fiddling with your graphics settings.Naturally, the PC gaming community responded “Sure, bro” before continuing to put, as one redditor so eloquently put it “a massive hog on Cait”. Hamaguchi recently returned to the subject when asked…
I recently decided to watch What We Do in the Shadows, Taiki Waititi’s bizarre vampire mockmentary. It was the logical next step in my ‘things to watch/play while I wait for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2’ journey, and I regret absolutely nothing. Yet, I know that, by the end of it all, the streets of Seattle will likely still be shrouded in shadows; I’m Transylvania dreaming of a release date, but it just isn’t here yet. Swooping in to save me, however, is Cabernet, a stylish 2D vampire RPG that just dropped on Steam – and it’s been on…
There are few things funnier than a guy being confidently wrong. It gave us Danny McBride’s Kenny Powers, Steve Carell’s Michael Scott, Ben Stiller’s White Goodman, and Will Ferrell’s… well, a whole lot of Will Ferrell’s characters. That unearned confidence is the attribute that led Ron Burgundy to claim that “diversity is an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War-era” and Ricky Bobby to take “If you ain’t first, you’re last” as his creed. Dudes loudly saying made-up stuff is a comedy archetype I grew up loving and Henry, the good-hearted lad at the center of…
