The sad saga of LEGO Universe's dong detection

Shuttered MMO LEGO Universe was in constant conflict with a mighty opponent: the human impulse to draw dicks. One of my friends has this odd little electronic notepad he keeps in his glove box.

Nobody knows whether it's some sort of hardwired biological imperative or the product of centuries of phallocentric culture, but toilet walls everywhere attest to the simple fact that a lot of people like to draw dicks, if they think they can get away with it.

Putting together top-tier Venti team comps in Genshin Impact is a bit different from building teams around other characters. Venti is designed to work with almost every other character. His Skill and Burst pull enemies in and makes clearing mobs and bosses much easier thanks to the Elemental Absorption and Swirl effects they create, making it possible to trigger a nearly endless stream of Reactions such as Freeze, Melt, and Vaporize.

The Witcher 3: Ladies of the Wood

The Witcher 3 enters murky territory in Ladies of the Wood. Following Wandering in the Dark, follow the path out of the cave and use the Eye to dispel the illusion masking the exit. Have a last chat with Keira, unlocking the secondary quest An Invitation from Keira Metz if you also completed Magic Lamp.

Cyberpunk 2077’s patches are far more than just small fixes – they’re an increasingly impressive overhaul

As Cyberpunk 2077 has been repeatedly updated, the focus has primarily been on the improvements made to the performance of CD Projekt RED’s open-world adventure, especially on console where – let’s be fair – it launched as more than a bit of a pig. But returning to Night City, I’m stunned by the depth of these updates. And I am surprised they’ve not been talked about more.
