Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Starfield 2 is going to be one hell of a game, according to a former Bethesda designer who worked on The Elder Scrolls and Fallout series, as it will address much of the original game's criticism. Speaking with VideoGamer, Bruce Nesmith commented on the franchise, which was launched last year, highlighting how it has the chance to reach the same heights as The Elder Scrolls series over time. When the studio built Skyrim, they had the "tremendous advantage" of Oblivion, which, in turn, had the advantage of Morrowind. All the team had to do was continue to improve the formula […]

Back in 2006, Bethesda released its first piece of downloadable content on console for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It was armor for horses and it cost $2.50. Players were outraged, but Bethesda made bank. “That was kind of a head shaker for us: you...
The new locations introduced in the Starfield Shattered Space expansion look really good, but they can be made to look much better with some choice mods, as showcased by a new video shared online today. The video put together by Digital Dreams shows how stunning the new locations of the first expansion released for Bethesda's latest role-playing game can look with ReShade ray tracing and over 300 mods, including some Star Wars mods that are quite apt, given the game's space exploration mechanics. Unfortunately, visuals are the only remarkable feature of the Starfield Shattered Space expansion, as the expansion doesn't […]
Ever since mass layoffs at Halo maker 343 Industries, fans have wondered what the future will hold for the famed sci-fi shooter. It turns out Microsoft still has big plans for Master Chief, and they involve multiple upcoming projects as well as the fra...
Starfield is, without a doubt, one of the most controversial games ever made by Bethesda. While it is undoubtedly a solid role-playing game that offers a vast world to explore and some gripping stories, it suffers from a certain lack of focus, evident in some of its elements, such as subpar exploration and traversal, the procedurally generated elements which end up being very repetitive, and a generally dated feel mostly represented by the loading screens that separate different areas. While I still generally enjoy the experience, my opinion of Starfield has soured a bit in the past year or so. […]
The next Starfield DLC expansion will provide a continuation of the Constellation and Artifact storyline, according to rumors circulating online. As reported by @Odah_SFA, the next expansion, which should be named "Starborn," will be about the disappearance of Constellation's founder, Sebastian Banks, providing a continuation of the organization and the Artifact storyline, which makes up much of the base game's story. OK. So, I've heard some gossip that #Starfield 's next Expansion titled "Starborn" will be about the disappearance of Sebastian Banks, Founder of Constellation and the continuation of the Artefact story. Will post more info once I know more #Starborn […]
Don't expect to find reviews for Starfield: Shattered Space when the sci-fi action RPG's first expansion launches on September 30. According to IGN's Dan Stapleton, review codes won't be released to any member of the press or any content creator ahead of that date. Usually, this would cause some concern about the expansion's quality, but Bethesda is not new to such practices. For example, 2016's DOOM reboot also did not offer review codes before launch, which was an excellent game. It earned an 8.6 score here on Wccftech from Dave Aubrey and sold millions of copies, securing the development of […]
A new Starfield beta patch is now live on PC, introducing performance and lighting improvements and much more. The main addition of the 1.14.68 patch in terms of features is a new Creation Kit feature, an automated process for creating models for distant LOD. The new beta patch also brings quite a bit in terms of improvements and fixes, such as general performance and stability improvements, lighting enhancements throughout the game, visual improvements for weapon models, improved player head tracking when exiting dialogue, and more. The new Starfield patch also brings some gameplay, quests, locations, ships, vehicle, UI and audio […]
Starfield’s first expansion, Shattered Space, is nearly here. And ahead of the DLC’s release later this month, Bethesda has released a new, detail-filled 9-minute video showing off the alien world where the expansion takes place, as well as its inhabit...
A new Starfield mod brings significant visual improvements by overhauling interior lighting, effects, and ambient light. The Enhanced Lights and FX, whose beta version can be downloaded for free from Nexus Mods, aims to create more atmospheric and realistic lighting by overhauling, as mentioned above, interior lighting, effects, and ambient light. This is achieved by making all interior light sources actually emit light, removing lights being cast from nowhere, increasing the use of reflection probes to improve reflections and indirect lighting, tweaking fog, redesigning light to make it more atmospheric, and more. Needless to say, the end results, even in […]

I started playing Overwatch in 2019. By the time I was pushing payloads and getting Play of the Game with a well-placed Tactical Visor, a lot of the old hero kits and team compositions that were infamous when the hero shooter launched in 2016 were more...
