Potential Building Nerfs Send Fortnite Fans into a Frenzy

Epic’s recent comments on the possibility of putting a cap on building has left Fortnite communities worried and divided. Yesterday, a blog post detailing Epic’s future plans on counterplay and late game play styles briefly mentioned “uncapped building” as a dominant play style alongside the advantages of shotguns and rockets. Building is a unique feature Fortnite brings to the battle royale genre and fans aren’t taking too well with the idea that materials could be capped or harder to seek out. Fortnite communities on YouTube, Reddit, and the official Fortnite forums have already voiced their concerns. On Twitter, @Nadeshot expressed his love for Fortnite and the Epic team but said that “catering towards the casual player in hopes of creating longevity for newer players is usually the quickest way to destroy the player base.” Continue reading…

The Catcher Was a Spy Review

The opening title cards for The Catcher Was a Spy, directed by Please Stand By’s Ben Lewin, lays out a plot tailor-made for something like Drunk History: It’s the year 1944 and the O.S.S. is worried that Germany might have the means to craft an atom bomb. So America sent a Jewish baseball player for the Boston Red Sox — who also frequents gay bars on the down low — to assassinate the Nazis’ physicist, Werner Heisenberg. Can’t you just imagine the likes of Drew Droege or Tiffany Haddish narrating this one, while slurring the phrase Office of Strategic Services? The thing is, The Catcher Was a Spy isn’t as fun as that logline makes it sound. It isn’t what Lewin seems to be going for, despite presence of Ant-Man’s Paul Rudd. Instead, it’s the kind of movie where government operatives like to don herringbone suits and fedoras to conspire in the shadows of shady cobblestone streets. It’s the kind of movie where citrine lamp lights desaturate an already misty night, the same sort of color palette for Fury or Bridge of Spies or The Imitation Game. It’s the kind of movie where an unlikely hero, typically reserved for a Tom Hanks or a Benedict Cumberbatch during awards season, ends up changing the course of history. Continue reading…

A History of Game Industry Screwups

The game industry never goes without a controversy for long. The latest one concerns Bethesda is suing Westworld game developer Behaviour Interactive and publisher Warner Bros, claiming Behaviour stole its designs, artwork, and coding, and used them in the mobile app. Bethesda goes as far as to claim that bugs appear in the Westworld mobile game which were evident in the early development of Fallout Shelter. This is just one of the many times in gaming history that a company has unceremoniously dropped the ball. The industry’s most popular names all made mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes spelled doom. Others were just bumps in the road. We packed together the biggest blunders of the biggest game publishers past and present to see just how they bounced back— or didn’t. Continue reading…
