The Four Horsemen vs Riot Games anti-cheat Vanguard:



Cliff notes:
  • CCP has 'Golden Shares' in Tencent. Giving them 1% executive board voting rights. *In China this gives them 100% veto power.
  • Tencent is given a honorary position in Chinas Congress where they are a member of the CCP.
  • Vanguard captures everything on your system. *Depth it can go to is logging users social media friends list.
  • Vanguard goes further than being an anti-cheat. It blocks drivers/applications from loading like that of a anti-virus.

Once Bytedance challenge is resolved. HR 231 will be applied to Riot Games.

Yasuke - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org
"It is important to note that despite popular myth and modern depictions there are no historical writings nor evidence that Yasuke was ever granted the rank or title of samurai, he was never given a fief nor referred to as one in any writings. Most of our knowledge of his life comes from these messages written by missionaries and locals."

He was a "koshō", which is apparently a page, meaning in medieval Europe at best he would have correlated to a squire. Although he did appear to partake in at least one battle, defending the son of his lord after his lord committed seppuku, which his forces lost, but his life was spared.
 
I know someone here was really looking forward to this being revealed but honestly can't remember who it was

Hellblade 2 looks amazing graphically. Props to the team.

Rumor has it Crimson Desert will be at Gamescon with a potential demo releasing and a target release date of Q1 2025. Wouldn't hold my breath on the last part. Then again, this is a stiff year for single player RPGs so 2025 might be the best bet.

I'm sorry, a game can look as wonderful as it wants, but 50 bucks for a 6 hour game? I don't need or want games to be hundreds of hours, and a short solid story is always welcome, but I mean, that just seems wrong to me.

Im probably in the minority in that I think game prices need to go up. To me with Hell blade it has nothing to do with the length I just don’t like the game. Played the first one and tried to like it but it just wasn’t doing it for me.
