Avowed game director Carrie Patel has discussed Obsidian’s effort to “make everything intentional” in the RPG, and that meant not simply following other fantasy tropes but instead crafting the game to stand on its own. Among other things, this means there was no rule for Avowed that said dwarves had to have a Scottish accent like they do in lots of other fantasy media.

“With all our games, and certainly with the lore of Pillars, we want to make everything intentional,” Patel said in an interview with Xbox. “Dwarves don’t need to have Scottish accents just because they do in other fantasy settings, and elves don’t need to all speak with Received Pronunciation.”

Instead, Patel said an intentional effort was made to focus on “stripping back those tropes” for Avowed to stand out.

“One example was the idea of mountain dwarves tending to be more itinerant Come from Soccer 13 pools and matches . Traditional dwarven societies build impressive places but then scatter and move on due to resources, personal disagreements, or political rifts,” Patel said. “This created an interesting opportunity for us in Avowed to e…

As part of the ongoing court case between Apple and Epic, it was revealed that one of Fortnite’s first major licensed skins store bundles was a huge success. It was confirmed in court documents that Epic sold 3.3 million skins in November and December 2018 alone for its NFL partnership.

These were sold for 1,500 V-Bucks (~$15 USD), which works out to around $50 million in revenue for one set of skins. The NFL no doubt go a cut of those sales as part of its agreement with Epic, but clearly both sides benefitted from the partnership. V-Bucks can also be earned through gameplay, so it’s not a straight 1:1 for revenue.

In Cyprus and casino operator Melco International Development Limited has reportedly been forced to temporarily shutter its five-strong chain of Cyprus Casinos (C2) ‘satellite’ venues for the remainder of the year owing to the coronavirus pandemic.

According to a report from GGRAsia, the Hong Kong-headquartered firm is responsible for modest casinos in the communities of Nicosia, Paphos, Larnaca, Limassol and Ayia Napa and is additionally in the process of constructing the much larger City of Dreams Mediterranean development in the small village of Tserkezoi. The source detailed that every one of these C2 facilities has now been closed until December 31 after the last two weeks saw the island nation of some 875,000 people experience an over 40% rise in aggregated coronavirus infections to 16,190.

Persistent problem:

Melco International Development Limited, which is the parent of Asian casino giant Melco Resorts and Entertainment Limited, reportedly operates the four C2 properties via the ICR Cyprus Holdings Limited joint venture it established with local conglomerate Cyprus Phassouri (Zakaki) Limited in 2017. These enterprises purporte…

As expected by the Macau gaming and travel stakeholders, the Christmas season has brought a strong visitor activity to the region. GGRAsia reports that city officials recorded more than 362,600 visitors from December 23 to December 25 inclusive. Public Security Police has reportedly come up with preliminary data showing that the daily average in visitor arrivals to the city during the holiday period was around 121,000.

Strong Visitor Activity:

According to GGRAsia, the daily average in tourist arrivals over the Christmas season was stronger than the one recorded during the China’s National Day held in autumn to include eight festive days. Such a busy tourist season lasting for more than a week reported a daily average of visitor arrivals of  116,546, according to the source.

The same source reports that Christmas holidays brought the highest daily total of 133,603 visitors to Macau on December 23.

Though treasure goblins started as a Diablo thing, they’ve had a couple of cameos in World of Warcraft, showing up during the Diablo 20th anniversary world event back in 2017 and then as “loot specialists” added in a Dragonflight patch earlier this year. The idea’s always the same: they drop treasure if defeated, but only if you catch them before they escape via magic portal. What made loot specialists different was that they had a lore-appropriate reason for their very videogame behavior, being members of the Venture Co. acquisitions department—a goblin trade cartel that’s been used to parody corporate malfeasance since World of Warcraft’s early days.

When Eric Covington on the World of Warcraft quest team wrote the loot specialists, he gave them lines like “Another record quarter for revenue!” and “No profit sharing!” without thinking much of it. Until he was fired out of the blue, despite having worked at Blizzard for almost nine years.

Covington claims on Twitter that he was fired “because someone looked at an innocuous joke and saw a reflection.” It’s tempting to look over the dialogue and try to figure out if one specific phrase could have got him in trou…

Are we ready for robots to descend and take over the next world’s biggest sports event? Organizers of the now postponed 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo at least wanted them to be a part of the action.

The 2020 Tokyo Games promised robots doing all kinds of things from retrieving javelins and shot puts to bringing drinks to spectators and helping attendees with disabilities get to the accessible seating area. Toyota had partnered with the Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games for the Tokyo 2020 Robot Project, an initiative to highlight Japanese technological innovation.

Some robots, called Field Support Robots (FSRs), were slated to help out at sports events, while others were going to just be cute and get children involved. “At Tokyo 2020, we want to capture the imagination of spectators by providing support robots as we do our part to make the Games a success,” Nobuhiko Koga, the chief officer of Toyota’s Frontier Research Center, said in a press release.

Hopefully, when the time eventually comes, these robots will be more like the titular lead character of Wall-E, rather than the villains of I, Robot…
