28 years later, the most subversive RPG feels more relevant - Inverse
Find out more about Redfall at QuakeCon - EurogamerGames like Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VII have left a lasting mark on the game industry, but other RPGs have a more understated influence. Live A Live is a brilliant RPG that simply didn’t get the recognition it deserved in 1994, mainly because it never received a North American localization. But all these years later, Square Enix’s HD-2D remake finally brings the game into the limelight. Perhaps what’s most remarkable about Live A Live, however, is that it feels just as unique and subversive as ever, even by 2022’s standards.
Warcraft adventure game can now be played the way it was meant to - PCGamerBethesda has confirmed that Arkane's new vampire game, Redfall, will get a 30-minute slot at its upcoming QuakeCon event.

Are video games really more expensive? - GamesindustryWarcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans was a point-and-click adventure game cancelled by Blizzard in 1998, and how time flies. The game was lost for most of its history, only existing in a few old screenshots and videos that floated around the internet, but in 2016 the full game suddenly appeared as a download (opens in new tab). It was playable, near-complete including cinematics and voice acting, and the individual who leaked it said: "This is my gift for all Blizzard fans, old and new."
Insider: Deus Ex series will get a long-awaited sequel - GagadgetIn general, we like to think we know how much something is worth. The decision is based less on logic and more on emotion, an intangible gut feeling. When it comes to video games we know when a game is under, or in most cases, over-priced. Unfortunately, that aptness in designating price to value is disrupted by inflation.
A few months ago Square Enix publishing house decided to sell some of its Western studios, among which was Eidos Montreal - the creator of modern Deus Ex parts and the co-author of the latest Tomb Raider trilogy.
The new owner of the Canadian studio became the Swedish holding company Embracer Group. Immediately after the deal was announced, it was suggested that this move will allow the developers to return to the Deus Ex series, loved by millions of gamers. And it seems that this theory is not far from the truth.
The GamesRadar website published insider information from Jeff Grubb. He reported that Eidos Montreal is indeed planning to continue the Deus Ex franchise. In this case, game designers aim to create a high-class game, which will not repeat the mistakes similar in concept project Cyberpunk 2077 from the Polish studio CD Projekt RED.
Jeff Grubb didn't specify whether the protagonist of the last two parts, Adam Jensen, will be the main character, or gamers expect another character. However, the game itself is in such an early stage of development that it is too early to talk about the details of its plot.
