The premiere of latest products is all the time an enormous event. Last 12 months, PS5 owners had the chance to get acquainted with the newest installment of the cult series of RPG games from Square Enix,and now PC gamers are finally getting in on the motion. — and that two extensions— finally released on Steam on September 17, meaning PC gamers have had loads of time to try the medieval fantasy epic. Here’s what people think.

Overall, reactions to the sport on PC aren’t much different from the praise the sport received upon its 2023 release. The real-time combat is successful, as is Valisthea’s stunning scenery, which is rendered with stunning fidelity. The story that’s -inspired the romance of betrayal and war became an enormous hit amongst PC gamers, as did the exceptional soundtrack by composer Masayoshi Soken. Of course, reactions should not unanimous, and the identical features that some players love also irritate others. As has happened with every match since in 2001, there have been cries that it was “not a real game”, whatever which means. Some see similarities to The combat and story feel like a cheat, in addition to the reliance on long cutscenes and lack of open areas to explore, are also big hurdles for some players. Still, despite this criticism, the sport is rated as mostly positive on Steam and has over 5,000 reviews.

While reactions to the story and gameplay are largely subjective, the PC version has also received criticism due to its commonality technical issues and lack of PC optimization (although some issues at launch were fixed inside just a few weeks). Look through reviews and you may find loads of negative posts from players complaining in regards to the inclusion of anti-piracy software Denuvowhich seems to be affecting the sport’s performance. Players are reporting wildly variable frame rates, with some being particularly annoyed by the undeniable fact that cutscenes are locked at 30 FPS (although there’s mod to fix it).

The Steam review for FF16 reads: J̶o̶n̶ S̶n̶o̶w̶ Clive Rosfield, brother of the heir W̶i̶n̶t̶e̶r̶f̶e̶l̶l̶ Rosaria, enjoys a simple life with his sibling-like royal ward, T̶h̶o̶n̶ Jill, and a terrible mother figure who resents him . He renounces that he is m̶a̶n̶ o̶f̶ t̶h̶e̶ b̶l̶a̶c̶k̶k̶k̶k̶k̶, but then his too honest and decent father, n̶e̶d̶ elwin, gets a haircut that falls into the event movement of our great sword-wielding hero. The twin kingdoms of W̶e̶s̶t̶e̶r̶o̶s̶ Storm and E̶s̶o̶s̶ Ash are complicated by the politics of war, the treatment of s̶l̶a̶v̶e̶s̶ carriers, the rare and destructive power of d̶r̶a̶g̶o̶n̶s̶eikon and g̶r̶e ̶y ̶s̶c̶a̶l̶e̶ the curse of the crystal. To make matters worse, there are ruthless enemies such as I̶r̶o̶n̶b̶o̶r̶n̶ The iron-blooded, inbred blonde royal mother, C̶e̶r̶s̶e̶i̶ Annabella, and her annoying son, Prince J̶o̶f̶f̶r̶e̶y̶er. Swear words. Northern accents. Nude scenes. The decline of storytelling. This is G̶a̶m̶e̶ o̶f̶ T̶h̶r̶o̶n̶e̶s̶ Final Fantasy XVI.

Steam review of FF16 which reads: Final Fantasy XVI: A Disappointing Departure from Tradition As a long-time fan of the Final Fantasy series, I have been eagerly awaiting the release of Final Fantasy XVI. I remember the excitement of exploring new worlds, engaging in strategic turn-based battles, and getting lost in complex character-driven stories. Unfortunately, my experience with this part left me feeling a bit frustrated and discouraged.

Waiting at Battlefield 6 will no longer be with full disclosure this summer

The concept shows the upcoming Battlefield game.

We are actually almost 4 years from restless launch Making it the longest gap between latest entries within the history of a multiplayer franchise. But Electronic Arts guarantees that fans will not need to wonder what will occur next for the longer term much longer. It was published by March 2026, the publisher confirmed on Tuesday.

“Looking to the future, we are sure of our ability to perform a deep pipeline – leading this summer with a very expected disclosure, a key step in providing our next generation Blockbuster Entertainment,” said CEO Andrew Wilson today in a press release. In addition to the upcoming business card, he confirmed that the sport would be available this financial yr, a window that has grow to be way more open because it was pushed back to May 2026.

Wilson earlier suggested that Juggernaut Rockstar Games was a think about the account from the starting window. “We think that the game will be great and ready at this time, but if we approached this time frame and believed that it will not be a great window for us, we are looking at how it could be an alternative window that would give us the right time, energy and player’s acquisition, so that all that must be necessary.

Is it possible that now we see that the game arrives earlier than expected and goes to the head with the next autumn? And will we see the next stick to the current point of 70 USD or jump on Microsoft’s fashion and aim $ 80 with some other editions this holiday season? These will be some of the questions that EA faces when he tries to restore her former glory after a series of errors in recent entries.

So far the noise is positive. Players’ tests and ongoing leaks in the next are longtime fans, excited that the franchise can find its position again, and also return to their roots. It would be nice to have a back in a mixture for many players, even if the live service market is becoming more competitive than ever.

Tom Cruise promises the underwater sequence “Unlike any other” in the mission: Impossible – final settlement

Tom Cruise thinks about the being.

From speeds to trains to flying motorcycles, Tom Cruise was still attempting to float with each subsequent movie bone breaking during the process. So what could he do to boost the bar? Well, hanging on the side of the plane again Apparently it isn’t the only thing. The aging Hollywood icon is now promising an underwater stuntman, unlike any fans.

“Since 1985 I have been studying and shot underwater sequences for over 40 years”, Cruise Posted on X on Monday. “We have always tried to move our creation of movies to a higher level. In this McQ movie and we saw the opportunity to create an underwater sequence as opposed to any other. We are glad that we can share with you.”

He also published a brief clip from behind the backstage in the production of the film, which incorporates his scenes floating through something that appears to be a fallen submarine in which AI called the essence threatens the world from 2023. It seems that Christopher Mcquarrie, which he directed, and likewise had an entire a part of the interior, was recreated for the scenes. We hope that in addition to the recent ways in which Cruise states that his insurance agents have developed, the sequence isn’t based on special post -production effects to influence.

This isn’t the first principal water feat. I saw a cruise hold your breath for six minutes In the scene where his character, Ethan Hunt, needed to unlock the manhole, spinning around the giant server cooling tank. And this scene took place only after the Cruise was filmed, for which Mcquarrie helped write a script, which ends along with his diving character under the water under the Louvre Pyramid in Paris to kill an enormous aliens.

He hits theaters in just just a few weeks on May 23 and brings many questions whether a cruise and franchise still have recent tricks in the sleeves. First of all, the query arises how the film can be good at many calls with previous entries in the irritated franchise in trailers, and what’s going to tell us about how Hunt joined the IMF, first, the story of the story. The biggest query, nonetheless, is whether or not it should be the last Cruise movie. Given his obsession with movies, Hollywood and his heritage at the ticket office, I doubt it in some way. At least so long as higher than his predecessor.
