https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-tells-switch-players-they-shouldnt-talk-about-mysterious-online-test/1100-6527119/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f

The mysterious Nintendo Switch Online test (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-launching-mysterious-switch-online-test-soon-heres-how-to-sign-up/1100-6527070/) that begins later this month comes with a warning for people chosen to participate: Please don't disclose or discuss it at all.User OatmealDome was invited to the test and shared a page from the disclosure form that says, "We request that you do not discuss or disclose content from either the Nintendo Switch Online: Playtest Program test software or website with others."Of course, this is the internet, so it's always possible--and actually likely--that some information about the test will slip out. Despite being referred to by some as an NDA, the agreement does not appear to be that strict. In any event, the message here is that Nintendo seemingly wants to keep things quiet, even if that may be an unrealistic expectation.Continue Reading at GameSpot (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-tells-switch-players-they-shouldnt-talk-about-mysterious-online-test/1100-6527119/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

Metaphor: ReFantazio Team Comps - Best Archetype Party Compositions
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/metaphor-refantazio-team-comps-best-archetype-party-compositions/1100-6527104/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f

Metaphor: ReFantazio (https://www.gamespot.com/games/metaphor-refantazio/) features a job system referred to as Archetypes, which allows you to swap any of your party members to any Archetype pretty freely. While there are some requirements to use the advanced Archetypes (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/metaphor-refantazio-all-advanced-archetypes-and-how-to-unlock-them/1100-6526963/), you will want to swap out Archetypes frequently. In some cases, like certain side dungeons, there are specific Archetypes that will be recommended based on the enemy weaknesses found there, but you can also ignore that if you like your setup. One of the most important factors for determining your team composition is the synthesis abilities that become available when you have specific Archetypes present in your party.Mage with Seeker, Healer, or MageThe Mage Archetype tree is incredibly powerful, especially early on, since it has access to fire, ice, and electric attacks, which allows you to target a variety of enemy weaknesses. However, the abilities the Mage and its advanced versions can use only targets a single enemy. If you want to use a version that can target all enemies at once, you will need to use the Synthesis version of these abilities, which only becomes available if you have another Mage, a Seeker, or a Healer present. Of those three options, the best to go with is the Healer since the Healer gets to use a light damage attack that targets all enemies if a Mage is present.Knight with back row damage dealersThe Knight is an excellent class that can fit into many team compositions since the Knight is a great tank. If you need to bring along multiple back-row damage dealers, like the Mage, Gunner, Healer, or Summoner, the Knight can get the attention of enemies to keep your squishy party members safe from danger. Even if the Knight's pierce damage isn't effective against the enemies you are fighting, focusing purely on defense can keep your party alive against tough enemies.Continue Reading at GameSpot (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/metaphor-refantazio-team-comps-best-archetype-party-compositions/1100-6527104/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

Genshin Impact 5.1 Update Is Missing English Voiceovers, Possibly Due To The SAG-AFTRA Strike
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/genshin-impact-5-1-update-is-missing-english-voiceovers-possibly-due-to-the-sag-aftra-strike/1100-6527103/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f

Developer HoYoverse has released the patch notes for the Genshin Impact 5.1 update, called "The Rainbow Destined to Burn," which is now available. Amidst the listed changes, one particular item warns players to expect some missing English voice-overs."Due to recording arrangements, some content in Version 5.1 does not have English voice-overs," the patch notes (https://genshin.hoyoverse.com/en/news/detail/126305) read. "We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused." Via IGN (https://www.ign.com/articles/genshin-impact-update-english-voice-over-voice-acting-strike), the assumption is that this is likely due to the ongoing video game voice actor strike under the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA.) As it stands, it's not confirmed that the missing voice-overs are directly related to the strike. Throughout the year, SAG-AFTRA approved AI voice acting (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/sag-aftra-approves-ai-voice-acting-for-video-games/1100-6520224/) for video games, while the union recently claimed that Formosa Interactive was guilty of committing "a flagrant violation of labor law" when the company allegedly tried to subvert the strike (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/sag-aftra-strikes-league-of-legends-due-to-secret-shell-company/1100-6526672/).Continue Reading at GameSpot (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/genshin-impact-5-1-update-is-missing-english-voiceovers-possibly-due-to-the-sag-aftra-strike/1100-6527103/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

This Helldivers 2 Competitor Is Out Today, Do You Want To Know More?
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/this-helldivers-2-competitor-is-out-today-do-you-want-to-know-more/1100-6527120/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f

There are plenty of high-profile releases out this month (https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/the-biggest-game-releases-of-october-2024/2900-5767/), but if you're looking to do your part in the ongoing war with bugs, you can now grab Starship Troopers: Extermination (https://www.gamespot.com/games/starship-troopers-extermination/) on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. It's launching in a post-Helldivers 2 gaming landscape, but if there's one thing that makes a bug hunt stand out in this game, it's that it allows for larger 16-person squads of Mobile Infantry grunts to be deployed and it makes use of a base-building gameplay mechanic."We're full 16-player, we have a different gameplay loop, we have building as a core component of our loop," game lead Peter Maurice said to GameSpot in an interview (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/starship-troopers-extermination-has-a-key-feature-helldivers-2-lacks/1100-6524448/). When you dig deeper, you pull that one layer off, you can see that there's two really distinct games: They kill bugs. We are the bug game."Both games do feature some similarities--like an ongoing galactic war metagame, cosmetics, and cheeky satire--but Helldivers 2 was inspired by Starship Troopers whereas Extermination is a licensed adaptation based on the IP made popular by the 1997 Paul Verhoeven-directed film.Continue Reading at GameSpot (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/this-helldivers-2-competitor-is-out-today-do-you-want-to-know-more/1100-6527120/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

Xbox Games Will Soon Be Sold In A New Place
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-games-will-soon-be-sold-in-a-new-place/1100-6527117/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f

In response to a recent court ruling, Microsoft has announced that Xbox fans will soon be able to purchase and play Xbox games directly from the Xbox app on Android.A judge ruled in the Epic v. Google case this week that Google will be forced to allow rival third-party app stores to exist within Google Play. This effort, spearheaded by Epic's Tim Sweeney, means Microsoft will sell Xbox games directly to consumers beginning November 1.The Fortnite studio convinced the court that Google made it very difficult for any rival store within Google Play to successfully compete in the market, and that's led to this decision being handed down. As The Verge (https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/10/24267339/microsoft-xbox-android-purchase-games-us-court-ruling) points out, it's unclear as to why Microsoft wasn't already selling Xbox games within its existing Android app. In any event, now that Microsoft can sell directly to consumers via its own store inside the Xbox app, it likely won't have to pay a fee to Google that it might have needed to otherwise.Continue Reading at GameSpot (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-games-will-soon-be-sold-in-a-new-place/1100-6527117/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

A group of developers who were initially tapped to work on the canceled sequel to Disco Elysium (https://www.gamespot.com/games/disco-elysium/) have announced the formation of a new development studio--Longdue Games--and a new game, which the studio describes as being "set in a game world conceived by the leads of the now-canceled Disco Elysium sequel."Longdue Games consists of about a dozen developers, many of whom either worked on Disco Elysium or were previously slated to work on its sequel before it was canceled. A number of legal disagreements (https://gamespot.com/articles/ousted-disco-elysium-devs-claim-fraud-studio-says-they-were-fired-over-misconduct/1100-6509090/) between the game's development studio/publisher ZA/UM and Disco Elysium game director Robert Kurvitz and art director Aleksander Rostov ultimately led to the sequel's cancellation, and although Longdue Games does describe its upcoming title as a "spiritual successor" to the original game, Kurvitz, Rostov, and ZA/UM have nothing to do with the project."Longdue’s debut project is developed with key creatives from the original Disco Elysium team and contributors to the unreleased sequel, carrying forward the thoughtful, narrative-first approach that defined its predecessor," Longdue said in a press release announcing both the studio's formation and the game itself. "The game explores the intricate relationship between mind and environment, offering players a story-driven experience where their choices shape both the world and its characters."Continue Reading at GameSpot (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/disco-elysium-devs-form-new-studio-currently-working-on-a-spiritual-successor-to-the-beloved-rpg/1100-6527108/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

Alongside Destiny 2 (https://www.gamespot.com/games/destiny-2/)'s Episode: Revenant (https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/destiny-2-the-final-shape-episode-revenant-season-pass-gear-and-exotics/2900-5847/) content drop comes Vesper's Host, a three-player dungeon that, like previous dungeons, is sure to offer some intense challenge to endgame players. That challenge is going to be more intense than usual for the first weekend of Vesper's Host, because for the first time, Bungie is running a world's first completion race similar to those it puts on for its raids. As players compete to be the first in the world to finish Vesper's Host, they'll have to deal with "contest mode," which amps up the difficulty of the activity to level the playing field.There's a lot going on with Vesper's Host, from its race to its new Exotic weapon (https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/destiny-2-revenant-every-new-exotic/2900-5854/), Ice Breaker, a returning favorite from the original Destiny. Here's everything you need to know about Vesper's Host, from when it launches, to race info and contest mode details, and more.Table of Contents [hide (https://www.gamespot.com/)]Vesper's Host trailer (https://www.gamespot.com/)Vesper's Host trailer First, check out Bungie's trailer for the dungeon, which gives a sense of what you'll face within it.
