Later, though, he also participated in a roundtable Q&A with Game Directors Corinne Busche and John Epler where various colleagues from the press were able to ask their questions. One of the most interesting answers came on the topic of companions, which are the very focus of Dragon Age: The Veilguard and even prompted the title change from Dreadwolf. When asked when they decided companions wouldn't […]

As a reminder, Dragon Age: The Veilguard will launch on October 31, almost ten years after the previous installment's release. It will be available for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. I know you are taking a different approach as far as levels go. Rather than trying to […]

Only recently, Beeper Mini’s iMessage feature for Android phones stopped working, with the assumption being that Apple was behind this move.

Google has been pushing Apple to adopt RCS for years, and the Cupertino giant has resisted the idea.

Apple is known for its walled garden of an ecosystem where one device compliments the other in a way that leaves no room for competitors.

Even the messages app on Apple products is different and only compatible with other Apple products. The green-bubble-blue-bubble war between Apple and the competition is as old as iMessage. Nothing has introduced its iMessage-compatible app, Nothing Chat, which will support most of the functionality. Carl Pei announces Nothing Chat […]
Google is gunning for iMessage as the advertising giant wishes Apple’s service to fall under the umbrella of the ‘core platform service.’ To help bring its plan to fruition, the company has partnered with several European telecom companies to push the European Commission to force Apple to make iMessage a cross-platform messaging service with other apps such as Google Messages and more. Several telecom companies and Google have sent a letter to the European Union stating that iMessage meets the new Digital Markets Act’s conditions A paywalled report from Financial Times that was spotted by Android Authority states that in […]
