No game wants to go down the hill and developers do try their best to keep it a joyful experience for the gamers. Baldur’s Gate 3 is among those games and it certainly has one of the longest early access periods in history. Though it was scheduled for September 2020, a bit of delay finally saw the early access release in the following month.
Launched to universal acclaim, the popular role-playing video game is set in a fantasy world setting called Forgotten Realms. The game bagged several Game of the Year awards, which certainly speaks of the work that went in there during the development.

Baldur’s Gate 3 has turned out to be one of the most successful games to have come out in the last decade. It has been celebrated and critically acclaimed in all aspects. And the composer behind the magical score of the game, too, does not stand back.
Until recently, Borislav Slavov was just the guy behind Baldur Gate 3’s music but the 2024 BAFTA Game Awards turned him into a celebrity. He stole many hearts with his heartfelt acceptance speech. He expressed his gratitude towards the team at Larian, who poured their heart into making the game and so did he. He explored new methods to approach the game’s score, considering its magnanimous scale.

The Elder Scrolls 6, the highly-anticipated squeal to Skyrim, has been a proverbial white whale for RPG fans since Bethesda first announced it back in 2018. While that reveal should’ve excited players that The Elder Scrolls 6 was coming soon, five years have passed with barely any new information.

The hype surrounding Spider-Man 2 leading up to the Game of the Year Awards in 2023 was immense. Marvel fans were blindly rooting for Spider-Man 2 to win, which was contesting against mega titles like Baldur’s Gate 3, Alan Wake 2, Resident Evil 4, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The popular Baldur’s Gate 3, developed by Larian Studios, was one of the best games of the year in 2023. Many Dungeons and Dragons fans believe this is the definitive title for the franchise.

From the top-down view of Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2 to the new 3D environment with a third-person perspective of Baldur’s Gate 3, it has kept players interested in the RPG genre.

In the "Futurama" episode "Calculon 2.0", the famously hammy acting robot Calculon (Maurice Lamarche) had been dead for years, having swallowed poison on stage in an attempt to make his death scene more realistic. He had been replaced on the soap opera "All My Circuits" with a new acting robot named Vextron, and fans hated the new actor. Fry (Billy West) and Bender (John Dimaggio) are so disgusted with Vextron that they resolve to exhume Calculon's mechanical husk and reunite it with his free-floating memory, stored in an ineffable cloud somewhere. The Robot Devil (Dan Castellaneta) hands over Calculon's "soul," and Professor Farnsworth (West) sets up a very, very scientific reactivation process to reunite Calculon with his body.
The process requires the Planet Express crew to wear protective, lead-lined "robes," and active five laser-connect wireless network hubs ... that just happen to form a pentagram. They have to reverse-install Calculon's programming, which...

Most of the time, Ethan Hawke is an indicator of quality -- or, if not that, then an ambition to make something meaningful. He's always taken the craft of acting seriously (something that spurred a good-natured war of attrition between him and Robin Williams while filming "Dead Poets Society"), but he's not haughty about it. He played a vampiric hematologist for The Spierig Brothers in 2009's "Daybreakers" and even joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe with his role as an Ammit-worshipping weirdo who pours glass shards in his shoes for "Moon Knight." Also, let's not forget that time he decked himself out in garish accessories to play the incredibly-named Jolly the Pimp in Luc Besson's eye-popping space opera "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" (a reminder that bad people can make spectacular art).

Baldur’s Gate 3 is more than just another RPG; it’s an ambitious storytelling marvel. Larian Studio’s Adam Smith knew the narrative stakes had to be earned through a complex, evolving story.
The decision to push beyond conventional RPG tropes was driven by the inherent power curve of Dungeons & Dragons (D&d) 5E.

From the outset, the team at Larian Studios faced a daunting challenge: creating a story that could sustain player engagement beyond the typical encounters with low-level enemies. Adam Smith acknowledged early on that having players “running around fighting goblins for 100 hours” would not suffice.

High fantasy isn’t the easiest genre to navigate, let alone completely own, but Baldur’s Gate 3 swooped in and became a fantastical force to be reckoned with. Not only did the game showcase a detailed narrative, but Larian also provided its players with the kind of options that aren’t found in other fantasy IPs.
This made the Dungeons and Dragons story stand out as a fresh entry, which begs the question why popular properties like Lord of the Rings haven’t fared as well in the realm of gaming.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a 2023 RPG game developed by Larian Studios, set in the incredible Dungeons and Dragons universe. In this game, players engage in turn-based combat, explore a richly detailed world, and make impactful choices that shape the overall narrative, all while unraveling a complex story.
The game features turns of captivating characters, but Astarion, the mischievous vampire spawn, has quickly become a fan-favorite for his engaging narrative, exceptional voice acting, and sassy flair.

The upcoming single-player spinoff of Dead by Daylight, titled The Casting of Frank Stone, has been generating buzz for its intriguing premise and the collaboration between Behaviour Interactive and Until Dawn and House of Ashes maker Supermassive Games. However, upon closer inspection of the devs’ latest revelations, the game’s plot bears some undeniable similarities to the 2011 Steven Spielberg-produced sci-fi thriller Super 8.
While the game promises to deliver a unique experience within the Dead by Daylight universe, the parallels between the two projects are hard to ignore!

Swen Vincke, CEO of Larian Studio, in an interview, said they already have a few plans and concepts in mind that they will work on and it might even dwarf Baldur’s Gate 3. However, Vincke, in his clarification, stated that he was heavily jetlagged and that his words were misconstrued.

Baldur’s Gate 3 had launched with immense excitement, and all players were ready to go back to the iconic world of Dungeons & Dragons. The rich storytelling, intricate gameplay mechanics, and a vibrant cast of characters awaited the players.
However, incorporating the new story with engaging and dynamic gameplay was a difficult task, but slotting older characters who were in both the original Baldur’s Gate games was a harder challenge in itself.

Dungeons and Dragons have withstood a strong fan following over the years after its debut as a fantasy role-playing game in 1974. Even though the original trilogy couldn’t add much magic to strengthen the franchise, many anticipated that Chris Pine’s Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves could potentially launch it.

Way back in 2019, Avengers: Endgame handed over the mantle of Captain America to Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson. Two years later, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier made the point canon and established the hero firmly into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which canonically was flaring up in tensions owing to the sudden re-emergence of the population that vanished and returned leading to mass displacement and worldwide chaos.

Baldur’s Gate 3 was one of the titles that proved that indie titles could compete with and sometimes even outclass Aaa titles. After a lengthy Early Access window, the game finally released and scooped multiple awards, including several Game of the Year awards.
Video game development is an iterative process, and various ideas and plans are discussed and trashed several times before the game is ready for release; Larian’s title was no exception. It has come to light that the game would have been vastly different had the studio not altered its plans.

Baldur’s Gate 3 surpassed everyone’s expectations in 2023 when it got the Game of the Year award, competing with some huge titles like Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Revealed during the 8th anniversary livestream, the surprise Dungeons & Dragons crossover Dlc is now available for Dead by Daylight on consoles and PC. The Dlc introduces a new Killer in Vecna—The Lich, a new Survivor in the Bard, Aestri Yazar, and is set in the new map, the crumbling Forgotten Ruins.
Vecna brings with him his Book of Vile Darkness, which contains four dark spells to terrorize and decimate Survivors:
Flight of the Damned conjures 5 flying spectral entities in a cone-shaped form, passing through obstacles and damaging any Survivor it hits. Fly elevates Vecna from the ground, making him move quickly in a forced-forward motion. While flying, he can pass through one Pallet or Vault, letting him quickly cover great distances. A well-known Dungeons & Dragons spell, Mage Hand creates a ghastly, phantasmic hand that can tag nearby Pallets. If the Pallet is lowered, the hand will raise it.

A live-action Dungeons & Dragons TV series was in development for Paramount+ and had even been given an eight-episode, straight-to-series order by the streaming service, but Deadline now reports that the project is no longer moving forward.
However, the Dungeons & Dragons series isn’t entirely dead, as Hasbro Entertainment will be shopping it to other potential buyers. It’s also said the series will receive a creative update which will be tackled by a new creative team. The version which was sold to Paramount+ was overseen by Rawson Marshall Thurber (Skyscraper), who wrote the pilot script and was going to direct the first episode. Drew Crevello (WeCrashed) was brought on to serve as executive producer and showrunner last year.
The report states that Hasbro remains committed to the Dungeons & Dragons TV series, meaning that it will likely be a matter of when, not if, the project emerges elsewhere.

Exclusive: Paramount+ has opted not to proceed with its live-action series based on Hasbro’s wildly popular Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game franchise.
The move comes almost a year and a half after the Paramount streamer in January 2023 gave the project an eight-episode, straight-to-series order. At the time, it was a co-production between Hasbro-owned eOne, which had developed the series, and Paramount Pictures.
Now shepherded by Hasbro’s in-house division Hasbro Entertainment following eOne’s December 2023 sale to Lionsgate, the project will undergo a creative update before being taken out to other potential buyers, both production partners and platforms, sources said.
The changes will include a new creative team. The version, which sold to Paramount+, was from creator Rawson Marshall Thurber, who wrote the pilot script and was set to direct the first episode. He was subsequently joined by Drew Crevello, who came on board in April 2023 as executive producer and showrunner.

Game development comes with its own set of hurdles, and even acclaimed titles like Baldur’s Gate 3 can’t avoid these hardships. This has become more apparent in the modern gaming landscape, considering how much more expensive developing games has gotten and the constant fear of whether or not the title will resonate with the audience.
Dungeons and Dragons is a massive franchise that many gamers are familiar with, but simultaneously, it’s still a niche brand that may not have connected well with mainstream players. And with a layered title like Larian Studios’ Game of the Year, there’s always the possibility of something going wrong.

Then, the spoiler-filled aftermath as experienced by the unwitting editor attacked by this week’s recommendation.
The Pitch: Scared of a Spider Bite Birthing a Thousand Spiders on Your Face? In ‘The Manitou,’ It’s Worse.
At a certain point in time, we lived in a world where we could wander into a movie playing on some random network (Rip Upn) and get sucked in with no knowledge of what it was, the behind-the-scenes stories it held, or even a whiff of IMDb trivia. It was a sad, bleak era. That is how I happened upon “The Manitou” one lazy summer Sunday. Everything about this oddball horror movie...

Hi, intrepid heroes! The season finale of indie streamer Dropout’s highly popular “Dungeons & Dragons” series “Dimension 20” drops Wednesday, bringing what creator and game master Brennan Lee Mulligan promises to be an epic conclusion to “Fantasy High: Junior Year.”
Ahead of the episode’s release on Dropout (which is also the name of the platform’s parent company that rebranded from College Humor last fall under CEO Sam Reich) Mulligan spoke with Variety about the success of the “Dimension 20” franchise, including the scheduled Jan. 24, 2025, live show’s almost-immediate sellout of Madison Square Garden last month, the fact the streaming series is not yet eligible to be submitted for an Emmy, and the next season of “Dimension 20’s” popular “Dungeons and Drag Queens” series.

There are a lot of streamers out there, but none quite like Dropout. “I’m a determined hipster,” jokes Dropout owner and CEO Sam Reich. “I can’t do anything that the rest of the industry is doing — I’m just too determined to be unique.”
Unique is not difficult to find on Dropout, which was created in 2018 as a subscription service for CollegeHumor content before CHMedia rebranded to Dropout in 2023. Take Game Changer, hosted by Reich, where the premise changes every episode and the contestants must learn the rules as they play. This season alone has seen an elaborate version of Simon Says, a parody of The Newlywed Game and a simple trivia game-turned-scavenger hunt where contestants need to search the studio for buzzers to answer questions.

Okay, the big Summer blockbusters are coming in “hot”, but there’s no reason for the offbeat “indies” to sit on the sidelines till the Fall. At least that must be the intent of the fine folks at A24, who are still basking in the box office of their biggest hit, Civil War. Ah, but this one is a true “test” for the studio’s fervent fans. It’s a truly “out there” ode to several small screen touchstones for ” 90’s kids”. In fact, you could probably have an interesting game of “checking off” winks and nods to some “cult faves”. Oh, but there’s much more happening in this exploration of suburban teen life as its young hero seems to be energized by the tube’s warmth as he swears that I Saw The TV Glow.

Dead by Daylight is on a bit of a streak right now. With great crossovers galore and frequent updates, it has slowly become one of the biggest multiplayer games at the moment, carving its niche within the industry.
Now, though, it seems that the game is ready to take things to the next level. Alongside its reveal of the latest set of crossovers and a single-player game set in the same universe that looks absolutely bonkers, the game is also finally bringing a much-awaited game mode to its player base.

Stranger Things is one of the most iconic pieces of sci-fi horror of this generation. The Netflix series quickly amassed a mass following after the first season, and the numbers kept climbing with every subsequent season. The end of the series in 2022 was a much-awaited event, and it spawned many collaborations with other pop culture franchises.
One of these was Dead by Daylight, the asymmetrical online multiplayer that allows players to become their favorite supernatural villains. Given the theme of the game, Stranger Things fits right into the mix, and we now have another addition from the series coming to the game.
Stranger Things’ Big Boss Comes to Dead by Daylight The worst monster from Stranger Things was inspired by Dungeons and Dragons.

Save for a couple of unfortunate attempts, Prime Video has really been on a streak of great adaptations in the 2020s so far. Apart from the more mainstream examples of that, the streamer released an animated TV show based on an iconic tabletop game franchise which, in many fans’ eyes, is the best adaptation of said game’s universe to date.
Misfit Adventurers to Return Later in 2024
Created by Critical Role, The Legend of Vox Machina is an epic animated series based on Dungeons & Dragons. It’s often dubbed as the best D&d adaptation out there even despite Honor Among Thieves’ existence. Like the latter, Vox Machina follows a group of misfit adventurers who are dragged into the whole “saving the world” business right from their favorite tavern.
First in The Washington Post article and then on Critical Role CEO Travis Willingham’s X account, the confirmations of Season 3 suddenly appeared.

What the Fog wasn’t the only new announcement during the 8th anniversary livestream for Dead by Daylight .

Meanwhile, a Bard, Aestri Yazar is the new Survivor. The new Chapter will also include a new map, Forgotten Ruins, taking players to a mysterious dungeon full of easter eggs for longtime D&d fans.

Before the backdrop of a magmatic cavern stand three adventurers: a warrior, a mage, and a trickster who, with a roll of the dice, are preparing to defeat a tentacled chthonic beast. Across the stage, the Dungeon Master smirks as he cues up the visuals that will soon appear on the massive LED screen behind him. The roll is a success, leading to the question every Dungeons & Dragons player longs to hear:

Dragons play a prominent role in many fantasy stories from The Hobbit to A Song of Ice and Fire to Dungeons & Dragons. They’re not as central to the plot of The Witcher, but they do help the main characters come to terms with their destiny in both the books by author Andrzej Sapkowski and the Netflix adaptation. Dragons are complicated creatures, so we’ll break down everything that’s been revealed about them.
Be warned: Spoilers for The Witcher are ahead.
What are the different types of dragons?
Gold dragons are so rare that most consider them a myth. Gold dragons, like witchers, are mutants and cannot reproduce naturally. However, they are shapeshifters, which allows them to walk freely among humans.
Green dragons are the most common, followed by red, black and white. Those names are somewhat misleading. Green dragons are actually greyish, red dragons are brick-red and...

When Jane Schoenbrun was in high school, they spent hours devouring Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Schoenbrun watched Sarah Michelle Gellar play Buffy, who over the course of seven seasons, figures out who she really is — a powerful woman chosen to fight evil forces. And Schoenbrun imagined how they might fit into the show. They saw themselves in everyone, from the wacky pal Xander to the broody vampire Angel to Willow and Tara, a pair of witches in love — gender be damned.

Review: (Note – Poolman Was Reviewed At TIFF 2023) In the fourteen years I’ve been covering TIFF, I’ve seen only a handful of movies that I’d say were shockingly bad. The Mickey Rourke/ Megan Fox/ Bill Murray dud Passion Play comes to mind. Poolman ranks with the worst movies I’ve ever reviewed at JoBlo. It’s a stunningly unfunny comic noir vanity project for star Chris Pine, who also directed and co-wrote the film. That it was made at all is a testament to the power of celebrity, as it has already become notorious at the festival for the amount of walkouts taking place at the screenings.
So why is Poolman so awful? It comes down to the screenplay and Pine’s grating lead performance as a kind of...
