It’s not an ‘or’; it’s not ‘do you want it pretty or fast,’ it’s, you get pretty and fast.” “Our engine has matured, and our team is matured, the hardware is matured – we are in a really good sweet spot; the s

World of Warcraft Classic is officially live and servers are already being tested by the incredibly high number of people joining in to play the vanilla version of the MMO.

It’s where the quality-of-life-improvements are best demonstrated, and where the lessons Techland has learned since Dying Light launched in 2015 are best reflected. The notion that it has an open world four times the size of the one seen in Dying Light sounds impressive in writing, but it doesn’t really do the reality of what is inside of Dying Light 2 justice. Dying Light 2 is a game that I’m gladly going to get lost in
