Manga Deal - Hellsing's Superb Deluxe Editions Are Steeply Discounted

When you think of Dracula, you're usually thinking of a dapper bloodsucker who has an aversion to sunlight and often finds himself eating the worst kind of stake by the time his tale ends.

Lies Of P Co-Op And NPC Summons Explained

Lies Of P Co-Op And NPC Summons Explained

One of the most useful features in many Soulslike titles is the addition of co-op, allowing friends or strangers to join up with you temporarily for difficult areas or bosses. But in the case of Lies of P, you won't be able to summon any real people into your game. That doesn't mean you have to face off against bosses entirely solo, though. Here's how summoning works in Lies of P. There is no co-op in Lies of P, but you can summon spectres Whereas many Soulslike games' summoning methods are surprisingly cryptic, Lies of P simplifies the process quite a lot. You can only summon a spectre before boss fights to assist you with that single fight--meaning that they'll disappear once either they or the boss dies. In order to summon one of these spectres, you'll need to use a Star Fragment on the glowing blue chalice that can always be found right outside of any boss arena. Once you enter into the boss fight, the spectre will appear and help you tackle the fight using a variety of attacks--and they'll also frequently keep the enemy's focus on them, allowing you to dish out damage more safely.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Disney Dreamlight Valley: How To Get Red Roses

Disney Dreamlight Valley: How To Get Red Roses

There are a lot of flowers to find and collect in Disney Dreamlight Valley, but there's a popular one missing from the initial selection--roses. That all changes once you bring Beast to your village and spend some time leveling him up, though. In this guide, we'll tell you how to befriend Beast and add Red Roses to your valley. How to get Red Roses in Disney Dreamlight Valley The first step to getting Red Roses in your valley is to befriend Beast and get him to friendship level 10. This will unlock his final quest called "A Gift in Crimson." In this quest, Beast wants to work alongside you to bring roses to Dreamlight Valley, but he'll need a greenhouse to get things started. To craft Beast's Greenhouse, you'll need to round up the following items: * Glass x20 * Dry Wood x10 * Gold Ingot x5 * Crystal x3 * Soil x30 With all of that collected, head to a crafting station and combine the materials with the Greenhouse Base that was given to you by Beast to craft Beast's Greenhouse. However, a greenhouse is no good without flowers to grow within it. As such, Beast asks you to return to his Realm and grab some cuttings from the roses there, so go ahead and use fast travel to return to the Beauty and the Beast Realm.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Netflix Renews One Piece For Season 2

Netflix's One Piece live-action adaptation has become a surprise hit and has officially been renewed for Season 2. One Piece creator and illustrator Eiichiro Oda confirmed the news today in this special video via Transponder Snail. Oda said that the renewal was signed on almost instantly. “To the Straw Hat Grand Fleet: What did you think of Season 1 of the live-action ONE PIECE?

You Can Not Pet The Cat In Lies Of P

You Can Not Pet The Cat In Lies Of P

There is a cat in upcoming Souls-like Lies of P and you cannot pet it. But it's not exactly because petting is not a feature. It's because the cat won't let you pet it. In a post on Twitter/X from PlayStation UK, a video shows the titular P reaching out to pet a cat on a table. As his hand gets closer, the cat hisses. Surprised, P pulls back his hand and the cat hisses again. Lies of P has a central safe hub where you can meet characters, upgrade weapons, and recuperate before heading out into a hostile world. Like in Dark Souls though, not all the NPCs you will encounter there are friendly. Yes you can pet the cat in Lies of P... oh wait nevermind pic.twitter.com/ozpIesmgaE — PlayStation UK (@PlayStationUK) September 14, 2023 Unlike other Souls games however, Lies of P has an element of social choice, where P can lie or tell the truth to affect the story. Perhaps it will be possible to win over this hostile cat, but you'll have to play the game to find out. Even if the cat grows to tolerate you, that certainly doesn't mean you can pet it.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Star Wars Jedi Boss Stig Asmussen Leaves EA

Star Wars Jedi Boss Stig Asmussen Leaves EA

Game director Stig Asmussen, known for his work on God Of War and later EA's Star Wars Jedi games, has announced that he will be leaving Respawn to pursue other opportunities, Bloomberg reports. Under his leadership, the single-player Star Wars Jedi titles helped to revitalise EA's slate of Star Wars games, with both games achieving critical and commercial success. "After careful thought and consideration, Stig Asmussen has decided to leave Respawn to pursue other adventures, and we wish him the best of luck," an EA spokesperson said on the announcement. "Veteran Respawn leaders will be stepping up to guide the team as they continue their work on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor." Jedi: Survivor launched this April, and continues to get updates for performance and quality of life. Asmussen said before Survivor's launch that the team went into developing the game with plans for a sequel in mind, with an insider reporting developers at Respawn assumed there would be a third Jedi game provided Survivor performed well. With all reports referring to the broader Star Wars: Jedi team, it's possible that a third game could still go ahead without Asmussen in the lead.Continue Reading at GameSpot

James Wan Wants To Bury Those Aquaman Sequel Rumors At Sea

James Wan Wants To Bury Those Aquaman Sequel Rumors At Sea

Fans are just one day away from the anticipated Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom trailer dropping this Thursday, but director James Wan wants to set a few things straight about the production. It's been five years since the first Aquaman movie--starring Jason Momoa donning the golden scales of the Atlantian hero--became the first DC movie to cross that $1 billion mark, but a lot of things have happened internally as well. We've seen the removal of Walter Hamada, and the ascension of James Gunn and Peter Safran as co-heads of DC Films and have a long-term plan in store, with Momoa's Aquaman no longer having a place among that schedule. Wan recently spoke to Entertainment Weekly about many of the rumors concerning the DC blockbuster sequel. The tentpole has been troubled by various reports about a disastrous post-production that allegedly included three rounds of reshoots. The film was also at the center of the power transfer to Gunn and Safran. "The tricky thing early on was not knowing whether Aquaman would come out first or come out after [The Flash]. So, we just had to be prepared," Wan said. "At the end of the day, the best thing I would say about this movie is that it is not connected in any way to any of those films. That's the bottom line."Continue Reading at GameSpot

The Last Of Us: Craig Mazin Talks Backlash To Season 1

The Last Of Us: Craig Mazin Talks Backlash To Season 1

The Last of Us showrunner and writer Craig Mazin has discussed the backlash to the first season's third episode, which focused on the story of Bill (Murray Bartlett) and Frank (Nick Offerman). Speaking to IndieWire, Mazin said the love story in "Long, Long Time" upset some people, as did a belief that the episode was only "filler." "Some people didn't like Episode 3 because, you know, gay stuff," Mazin said. "And then they kind of retroactively try and come up with a [different and inoffensive] reason why." The episode tells the story of how Bill met Frank, their unlikely, long-lasting romance, and how it all ended in heartbreaking fashion. Mazin doesn't agree that this episode was merely filler.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Amber Heard Once Commissioned A Mercy Cosplay To Wear For Elon Musk

Amber Heard Once Commissioned A Mercy Cosplay To Wear For Elon Musk

A new tell-all biography about Elon Musk written by author Walter Isaacson may be telling a little too much, including the possibility that Musk engaged in sexy Overwatch roleplay with ex Amber Heard. After Musk told her that she reminded him of Overwatch healer Mercy, Heard reportedly spent two months putting together a cosplay she could wear for him, as picked up by Kotaku. Elon Musk dated Amber Heard on and off through 2017 and 2018, reportedly first taking interest in the actress as early as 2013 after seeing her in Machete Kills. The cosplay anecdote took place in 2017, after Musk flew out to Australia to see Heard while she was filming Aquaman. There, Musk told her she reminded him of Mercy, who was his favorite Overwatch character, and "she spent two months designing and commissioning a head-to-toe costume so she could role-play for him." Speaking to Isaacson for the biography, Heard says she was fascinated by Musk's work at the time, saying, "I guess I could be called a geek for someone who can also be called a hot chick."Continue Reading at GameSpot

Xbox's Sarah Bond Discusses Being On Stage At E3 And Being Warned About Trolls

Xbox's head of creator experience and ecosystem Sarah Bond has reflected on her 2019 E3 appearance in a recent interview, naming it as the most meaningful thing she's done in her time at Microsoft. Speaking to Inverse, Bond recalls being warned about trolls, interactions backstage, and crying as she walked off the stage. "I'd argue that wasn't my best actual showcase performance, but that one was the most meaningful," Bond explained. "We had never had a Black woman come up on stage before. Xbox wanted me to do it, but they were setting my expectations that it may be very rough. There's days of rehearsals before the live show. At one point, someone who had worked on that show for 20 years told me, 'We never thought we would see this. We're so proud of you.'" The games industry is known to struggle with diversity, especially when it comes to the people who are represented on stage at the biggest presentations and events. Bond explains how she was galvanized to do her part to change that perception by speaking at E3, then one of the biggest events in the industry's calendar.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Ubisoft's XDefiant Could Launch In September Or October

Ubisoft's XDefiant may not have an official release date yet, but it could be very close to release. In a new blog post, executive producer Mark Rubin has pulled back the curtain on what goes into a game's release, explaining exactly where XDefiant is at in that process. The blog goes into some detail on the submission process required to get games onto platforms like PlayStation or Xbox, with Rubin warning that "sometimes full transparency is like drinking from a firehose so hope you all are thirsty!" Put simply, developers are required to submit a copy of their game to parties like Xbox and Sony, so their teams can check that the game is working properly from a platform perspective. After a game gets the green light through this process, it generally takes another week or two to get it ready for release. While XDefiant was submitted through this process in the end of July, it initially didn't pass compliance.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Persona 5 Tactica Both Celebrates And Reinvigorates P5's Combat, Adding More Strategy And Adorable Art

Persona 5 Tactica Both Celebrates And Reinvigorates P5's Combat, Adding More Strategy And Adorable Art

The Persona series is no stranger to spin-off games. You could even argue spin-offs are in its DNA, as the property itself began as a spin-off to developer Atlus' long-running Shin Megami Tensei series. In the nearly 30 years since then, the studio has explored a handful of different genres using the series' memorable characters and storylines. But while we've seen our protagonists and their ragtag band of misfits duke it out, dance all night, dungeon-crawl, and take on hordes of enemies in a Musou-style hack-and-slash, we've yet to see them venture onto the gridded field of a tactics-style game. Persona 5 Tactica, however, is here to remedy that. I recently got the chance to play about half an hour of Persona 5 Tactica, and in that short time, I was sold on Atlus' vision for a strategy RPG. Gameplay was not only a lot of fun but felt like such a natural extension of the series. I found myself repeatedly impressed by how well thought out its tactical challenges were and how much of the original game's spirit came through in its style and mechanics. Whereas many spin-off titles can feel like pseudo-experimental ways for a studio to rake in more cash using an established IP, I walked away from Persona 5 Tactica feeling confident the game can justify bringing back the Phantom Thieves for another round of vigilante justice. In Persona 5 Tactica, you get the chance to experience a new Phantom Thieves' story as the gang gets pulled into some supernatural drama following the disappearance of a National Diet member. While my time with the game didn't dig too deep into its background politics, it's clear something is up. The team then finds themselves not in the Metaverse--the name given to the cerebral universe they take on baddies in in Persona 5--but rather a new, alternate world they've yet to nail down. In this world (or at least in this portion of the world), the charming-yet-short-tempered Lady Marie rules with an iron first and an army of Legionaries. Joker and the team quickly find themselves on the outs with this Queen-of-Hearts-esque dictator, and join up with a revolutionary named Erina to help take her down.Continue Reading at GameSpot

First Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom Teaser Trailer Has Arrived, And It's Very High Stakes

DC has released the first teaser trailer for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, which has Black Manta on the warpath after failing to defeat Aquaman in the first movie. The full trailer, meanwhile, is coming this Thursday, September 14. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II reprises his role from the first film as Black Manta, and he's stopping at nothing to take down Aquaman (Jason Momoa) and avenge his father's death. Black Manta says in the trailer, "I'm going to kill Aquaman and destroy everything he holds dear." The footage then cuts to a home on fire, potentially the home of Aquaman's father from the first movie, with Aquaman arriving on the scene with a pained look on his face. In The Lost Kingdom, Black Panta has the power of the Black Trident weapon, which "unleashes an ancient and malevolent force." Aquaman needs help to fight Black Manta, so he turns to his half-brother and former king of Atlantis, Orm, who is played by Patrick Wilson.Continue Reading at GameSpot

After years of easily shredded tanktops and black leather, Deadpool 3 is finally putting Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman in the mutant's signature blue and yellow costume. Minus the blue underwear--on the outside at least--Wolverine's big screen costume is a faithful adaptation of the classic spandex that Canada's finest export has worn in comic books and in animated series over the years.

Starfield Surpasses Skyrim's Concurrent Player Record On Steam

Starfield Surpasses Skyrim's Concurrent Player Record On Steam

Dragons apparently can't compete with the final frontier, as Starfield has eclipsed Skyrim's concurrent player record on Steam. The space-RPG saw almost 40,000 more people Sunday than The Elder Scrolls V had at its peak over 12 years ago. VGC reported that Starfield hit 330,723 players September 10, per SteamDB. That easily tops Skyrim's peak of 287,411 people back when the game launched in 2011. However, this isn't a Bethesda Game Studios record on Steam, as Fallout 4 saw over 470,000 players eight years ago. Keep in mind for Starfield that Steam players paid for the full game, since those numbers don't include Game Pass subscribers. In fact, a lot of people spent a premium to check out Starfield early on Steam. The spacefaring RPG saw over 230,000 on the service within 24 hours of launching in the five-day early access period.Continue Reading at GameSpot

COVID And Working From Home Made Starfield Development "Very, Very Slow," Todd Howard Says

Starfield game director Todd Howard has commented on how the global COVID-19 pandemic impacted the development of the sci-fi RPG. Speaking to The Washington Post, Howard said when developers shifted to a work-from-home setup in early 2020, this made production on Starfield "very, very slow." Not only were the team members crafting Starfield the game, but also the new technology underpinning it. Starfield was originally set for release in November 2022, but the game later got pushed to September 2023. Howard said when the team chose the November 2022 date, it did so knowing they had "lots of buffer" built into it. However, Howard acknowledged that, "As things moved on, we were off by a percentage, and a percentage when it comes to the scale of this game turns out to be a lot of time." Of the delay to September 2023, Howard said, "We felt it was the right thing to do to give us the time we required."Continue Reading at GameSpot

It hasn't seen many price cuts since launching in April 2022, but right now you can snag the game and its unique leg strap accessory for just $37.50 (down from $50). See at Amazon This is among the best prices we’ve seen all year, with the game typically listed for $50 still. Best of all, this deal includes the leg strap accessory used during the soccer minigame. Nintendo Switch Sports included the following activities: * Soccer * Volleyball * Bowling * Tennis * Badminton * Chambara (Swordplay) * Golf Each of the seven sports makes full use of the Joy-Con’s motion controls, allowing you to perform different actions by swinging your arms--or in the case of soccer, kicking your leg. It’s quite similar to the iconic Wii Sports, though it benefits from enhanced graphics, great multiplayer (both online and locally), and improved motion controls thanks to advancements in tech.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Viral Steam Game Only Up Has Been Removed, Dev Says It Was Too Stressful

The developer of one of 2023's most popular and viral Steam games has removed it because of the stressed it caused.

One Piece Season 2 Could Be Ready In A Year, If Renewed

One Piece Season 2 Could Be Ready In A Year, If Renewed

Netflix's One Piece live action adaptation has become a surprise hit since it finished airing, though it hasn't yet been renewed for a second season. The producers say scripts for season 2 are already done, and the next season could be ready to air 12 to 18 months after production starts. Though live action anime adaptations have almost as bad a track record as video game movies, One Piece has been the surprising exception, begging the question of where the series goes from here. In an interview with Variety, the leadership of One Piece production studio Tomorrow Studios talked about their plans for it. "We've got scripts ready," said CEO Marty Adelstein. "Realistically, hopefully, a year away, if we move very quickly, and that is a possibility. Somewhere between a year and 18 months, we could be ready for air," President Becky Clements added, though noting that the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike could delay that estimation further.Continue Reading at GameSpot

How WoW: Dragonflight's 2023 Content Roadmap Has Helped "Reinvent" Blizzard's MMORPG

How WoW: Dragonflight's 2023 Content Roadmap Has Helped "Reinvent" Blizzard's MMORPG

World of Warcraft: Dragonflight's update cadence has been a game-changer, both for the playerbase and the development team. Comparing the game's ongoing Dragonflight expansion to its most-recent predecessor is like comparing night and day. Shadowlands was dark and gloomy. Dragonflight is bright and hopeful. Content updates were few and far between in Shadowlands, but Dragonflight's are fast and frequent. Where Shadowlands forced players to abide by restrictive systems, Dragonflight is largely content to let players do and play how they want. In an interview with GameSpot, WoW game director Ion Hazzikostas and executive producer and vice president Holly Longdale made clear that the team at Blizzard has learned a lot in the past few years.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Samuel L. Jackson May Play President In Movie With An Incredible-Sounding Concept

Samuel L. Jackson is reportedly in talks to play the President of the United States in a new film that has an incredible-sounding concept. Deadline reports that Jackson will play the Commander in Chief in a film called The Beast, which will also star Suicide Squad's Joel Kinnaman. According to the report, The Beast is now in pre-production and has secured an interim agreement from SAG-AFTRA to move forward amid the ongoing Hollywood strikes. The Beast focuses on a presidential limo called "The Beast," which is filled with grenades, shotguns, armor plates, and other systems to keep the people inside safe.

Tokyo Ghoul Manga Box Sets Receive Massive Price Cuts At Amazon

Tokyo Ghoul Manga Box Sets Receive Massive Price Cuts At Amazon

In the mood for a series about a flesh-eating species trying to blend in with humanity? Then you'll want to check out Tokyo Ghoul, specifically the manga box sets that have been heavily discounted at Amazon. Sure, the "manga was better than the anime" argument can be polarizing, but when it comes to Tokyo Ghoul, the fanbase generally considers the source material to be superior to the adaptation. See Tokyo Ghoul box set See Tokyo Ghoul:re box set At Amazon, you can grab the first 14 volumes of the Tokyo Ghoul manga for $85.49 (normally $150) and all 16 volumes of Tokyo Ghoul:re for $101.40 (normally $170). The original run of Tokyo Ghoul--which centers around college human-ghoul hybrid Ken Kaneki--comes inside a striking slipcase and includes an exclusive double-sided poster. The Tokyo Ghoul:re box set also comes with an exclusive double-sided poster, and both of these editions feature the same-sized manga format that makes them easy to digest, as long as you can get used to the traditional right to left reading format of Japanese manga. * Tokyo Ghoul volumes 1-14 -- $85.49 ($150) * Tokyo Ghoul: Re volumes 1-16 -- $101.40 ($170) The first Tokyo Ghoul series, written and illustrated by Sui Ishida, is a terrific dark fantasy set in an alternate version of Tokyo where Ghouls secretly coexist with humans. Kaneki, who is transformed into a half-ghoul after an encounter with one of them, finds himself becoming a bridge between both societies while he deals with adversaries on both sides. Ishida's art heightens the dark nature of this series, and just in case you were thinking of picking this up for the younger manga fans in your household, just be aware that this series regularly has violent and disturbing imagery throughout its tragic tale.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Mortal Kombat 1 Copies Leak Early, Spoilers And Final Characters Are Out There

Mortal Kombat 1 is a week away, with early access for those who preordered the deluxe editions beginning September 14. However, it seems some physical copies have made their way into the wild already, so take this post as fair warning: There are spoilers abound. A Reddit post titled "Mortal Kombat 1 switch fps [sic]" appeared on the official Mortal Kombat subreddit on the evening of September 5, which showed the opening cutscene from the game's campaign on a handheld Switch console. The same user who posted the video also posted screenshots of the character select screen, as well as the Kameo Fighter select screen, on a separate subreddit (beware of spoilers!) dedicated to MK leaks. While the opening cutscene of the campaign isn't new--multiple outlets got to go hands-on with the campaign late last month--the playable character select screens does have two faces who have yet to be officially revealed. One of them has surfaced a few times if you've paid close attention, while the other is a name we've not officially heard in any capacity yet.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Baldur's Gate 3's Biggest Shortcoming Is Delivering A Purely Evil Experience

Baldur's Gate 3's Biggest Shortcoming Is Delivering A Purely Evil Experience

Picture this: You see a crowd milling about, entertained by a character playing a musical instrument, all while another party member pickpockets them. Dastardly, right? In another instance, you might whisper sweet nothings to a companion, only to sleep with someone else so you can break your other companion's heart. Sounds vile, no? Indeed, Baldur's Gate 3 offers many opportunities for misdeeds and general assholery. Unfortunately, it also fails to deliver on a purely evil experience, at least one where you aren't severely punished. Don't get me wrong: Baldur's Gate 3 is an amazing game--the reactivity and multiple outcomes are overwhelming and impressive. Well-written dialogue, character personalities, and memorable quests kept me engaged for roughly 270 hours, from early access until the present. Although I did start out as an evil character (via the Dark Urge origin), I approached the campaign as a redemption arc of sorts. With countless backups for save-scumming, I was able to check different results based on key decisions throughout the campaign. That's when I realized how being purely evil in Baldur's Gate 3 didn’t just mean dealing with the harsher consequences of my actions, but also how there’s very little to gain in return. In effect, what could’ve been an interesting or compelling role-playing hook leads to a rather unrewarding conclusion. Also, it goes without saying that this article contains major spoilers.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III has been officially announced, and one addition to the formula this year are what's called "Open Combat Missions" for the campaign.

What are Open Combat Missions? In addition to the more cinematic, linear, and focused missions that fans have come to know and expect from Call of Duty, Modern Warfare III has Open Combat Missions that give players more freedom. Players will have "numerous additional choices" for how to complete a mission, Activision said in a blog post. "For example, if you prefer to use stealth techniques, you may wish to undertake an OCM with a lights-out approach, using night-vision goggles and suppressed weapons and complete your objectives without your adversaries knowing you were even there," the company said. "However, if loud explosions and reckless abandon are part of your repertoire, strap extra armor plates onto your torso and hit those targets head-on."Continue Reading at GameSpot

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Tips For Family And Victims

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is every bit as unforgiving and brutal as its 1974 inspiration, so whether you're on the family team comprised of several sadistic killers or the victim team made up of a few young adults bleeding all over the place, it pays to have a plan and stick to it. We've already put in dozens of hours with the asymmetrical multiplayer horror game, so we come offering tips for either side of a match. Use these pointers to either make it out alive or finish preparing your dinner. Texas Chain Saw Massacre tips for playing as the family Use these tips when you're on the killers' side of a match to round up all victims and prevent any Final Girls or Guys from making it to the sequel. Have either the Hitchhiker or Sissy in a match Every round as the killers is made a little easier if one person plays as either Sissy or the Hitckhiker. The reason for this is they are the only two killers who can crouch and enter small spaces like the victims can. While victims may use a crawlspace or crack in the wall to gain distance on Leatherface, Johnny, or the Cook, these more slender sadists can follow right behind them.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The Last Of Us co-creator and showrunner Craig Mazin has talked about the future of the show in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, confirming there are still multiple seasons left for the Emmy-nominated adaptation. Mazin also hinted that the show has already found its Abby, though casting announcements have been put on hold by the strike. When asked whether season two will be going back to ten episodes, or following the first season in only having nine, Mazin says "neither," elaborating that: "We've laid out our vision to HBO for how this series should lay out across not one season, but multiple seasons." Having previously mentioned the idea of a fourth season in passing, Mazin is asked whether four seasons is the current plan for The Last Of Us. "You never know," he answers. "It can end up being three or five. But four seems like a good number. Some seasons, because of the story we’re telling, will need fewer episodes and some will need more."Continue Reading at GameSpot

Baldur's Gate 3 Speedrunners Turn Their Attention To Getting Laid Fast

Baldur's Gate 3 Speedrunners Turn Their Attention To Getting Laid Fast

Baldur's Gate 3 is a monumentally broad and detailed game that should take most players numerous hours to complete. We've already seen just how quickly you can beat it with the current fastest completion time at just under 10 minutes, but with a game packed with all the varied content that Baldur's Gate 3 has to offer, racing to the credits seems a little boring. That could be why challenging yourself to see how fast you can get your character laid is now a new fun speedrunner challenge (via IGN), which has now become official in the Sex% category for the game's speedrunning community. The current record sits at just below eight minutes, with runner Mae (who also managed to beat the game in a hair over 10 minutes) achieving the feat but utilizing some clutch mage skills and the steely determination to get to bed in the evening as quickly as possible. The run, which you can see here, shows Mae guiding their level one human wizard through the game's prologue and avoiding as much combat as possible, making intelligent use of Enhanced Leap to get around skirmishes and keep pushing for glory. Said glory is an introduction to Lae'zel, which happens near the end of the run and during the only forced combat scenario. Mae uses this to their advantage too, tricking one of the tieflings in the Grove to bow down to Lae'zel. This is enough to convince Lae'zel to invite Mae's wizard over for a different kind of skirmish at night, which Mae quickly initiates once getting back to camp.Continue Reading at GameSpot
