According to a recent Q&A, players will generally be able to kill most non-player characters (NPCs) in the game. While there are exceptions – some NPCs are protected to maintain the story’s flow – the developers intentionally allowed for widespread NPC deaths. The game will react to these actions, offering varied outcomes and different endings depending on who lives or dies. This feature was a significant topic of debate during development, with the team considering whether it aligned with the creative vision of the game’s inspiration.

As a big fan, I was really excited to hear Valve’s Steve Cardinali talk about the Steam Deck! He mentioned it doesn’t use RAM, which actually makes it simpler for them to get out the door. They’re feeling prepared for launch and were hoping to have enough units for everyone who wants one, but honestly, it sounds like demand might be way higher than they even thought – which is awesome, but also a little nerve-wracking as a fan hoping to snag one!

On May 5th, PlayStation Plus is adding three new games: EA Sports FC 26, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, and Nine Sols. All three will be available to download on PS5, and EA Sports FC 26 and Nine Sols can also be played on PS4. These games will be available on PS Plus until June 2nd, when they’ll be replaced with a new selection of games that haven’t been announced yet.

These short videos are advertisements for McDonald’s, using popular characters from the movie, including Derpy and the Saja Boys. The newest video, featuring KPop Demon Hunters, revisits the main conflict from the Netflix film and points out a key issue the upcoming sequel needs to resolve. Luckily, the filmmakers have time to work on it and several options for how to proceed.

Good news for fans! The classic 90s sitcom Kenan & Kel is now fully available on Paramount+. After initially only having the first two seasons, all 65 episodes are now streaming as of April 29th. The show, which originally aired on Nickelodeon from 1996 to 2001, follows the funny and often disastrous adventures of two teenage friends in Chicago. Kenan always tries to make money quickly, but his plans usually fall apart thanks to his goofy, orange soda-loving best friend, Kel.

As a PlayStation fan, I’m really excited about the new PS Plus games coming in May 2026!

So, what’s the deal with this free campaign? Well, the studio head, Paul Neurath – you might know him from the classic Thief games – said it’s all about letting players jump into the world of Thick As Thieves and giving us a good, solid experience to make us want to come back for more. Basically, a free demo to hook us in, and it sounds pretty good!

Wilson observed that shared difficult experiences can sometimes strengthen bonds between people. However, he noted that many feel ashamed or hesitant to discuss those experiences, often avoiding any mention of their involvement in the project or workplace where the trauma occurred.

Rick Veitch’s work on Swamp Thing in 1982 was interrupted when he wrote a story where the character traveled through time and encountered Jesus Christ. DC Comics considered the story too controversial and refused to publish it. Now, after 37 years, this unreleased comic is finally available. Veitch’s original idea is now a reality, and it turns out the comic isn’t nearly as shocking as DC originally thought. Swamp Thing 1989 #1, the first of a four-issue series, has officially been released.

As a player, I’ve noticed that building a character focused on healing in D&D isn’t quite the same as building a traditional support character. Support builds usually offer different kinds of benefits – things that give you a mechanical edge or extra bonuses – rather than just restoring health. When I think of a ‘healer,’ I expect someone who can really keep people going, letting them take more punishment. And it’s not always about big, permanent heals, either. A good healing build can also focus on preventing damage or lessening the blows that do get through – it’s all about keeping everyone alive!
