Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin, the recently released new version of Dark Souls 2, is not an easy game by any means. Dying repeatedly is absolutely normal and, at times, even needed to learn more about the dangers of the game’s world and finally be able to overcome them. Unfortunately Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin is way more difficult than intended, due to a bug that doubles the speed with which weapons degrade after use. This is a really huge issue that damages the whole experience, as the weapons become useless once their durability reaches zero.

Luckily, From Software has finally acknowledged the issue and has confirmed through the game’s publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment that it will soon be fixed with an upcoming update. Other fixes included in the next calibration patch will include fixes for summoning signs still appearing in areas where bosses have already been defeated, blood stains not displaying properly and several online mode issues. You can check out the full patch notes on the Bandai Namco Entertainment Tumblr profile.

Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin is the updated version of the original Dark Souls 2, released last year on consoles and PC in all regions. The new version of the game introduces several changes that can surprise even those who have mastered the original release of the brutally challenging action role playing developed by From Software such as remixed enemy placements and more. The new version of the game also include new characters, improved online matchmaking functionality, expanded item description and more gameplay tweaks. Also included in the new release are the three excellent DLC packs developed for the game, the Crown of the Sunken King, Crown of the Old Iron King and Crown of the Ivory King packs.

Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin is now available on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC. The release date for the new patch fixing a variety of issues has yet to be confirmed but we will definitely hear more about it very soon.

Fear not; for those worried about potential censorship issues with the PS5-exclusive Stellar Blade, set to release on April 26th, Sony has got you covered. ShiftUp, the developer, proudly assures players that the game will maintain its uncensored content across all regions, including Japan.

We have to admit, we didn’t anticipate this as a potential issue or a potential selling point. The main character, Eve, and her revealing costumes have been heavily showcased in the game’s pre-release marketing. Nevertheless, it is pleasing to witness ShiftUp’s evident enthusiasm as their vision prepares to reach the hands of a vast number of players.

Regarding Stellar Blade, Yoko Taro believes it surpasses NieR: Automata, and we were pleased to learn that the game will be considerate of your PS5 storage capacity. The demo is now available for you to try, and it has nearly doubled the daily active users of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. This is quite impressive, especially considering it is the game’s first console showing.

Will you be there to experience Stellar Blade on its release day? It’s certainly a relief to witness the game remaining uncensored until the last moment. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

Sony is reportedly engaged in discussions to form a partnership for a potential bid on Paramount

There hasn’t been much buzz lately about any new acquisitions in the world of video game intellectual property. According to a recent report, Sony is currently engaged in discussions with a well-funded partner to potentially acquire the renowned film studio Paramount, along with all the exciting possibilities that come with such a merger.

As reported in the New York Times (thanks, ResetEra), Sony Picture Entertainment is reportedly in discussions with Apollo Global Management, an investment firm, as per two sources familiar with the matter. In the past, Apollo had made an offer to acquire Paramount for a minimum of $26 billion, but their bid was ultimately turned down.

The terms of the joint bid are currently under discussion, and there is a chance that the two parties may decide against making a formal offer. Unnamed sources have revealed that Paramount is currently in exclusive discussions with Skydance, preventing any official offer from being made at this time. Investor opposition to the recent deal that Skydance brought seems to have been significant.

The potential impact of such an acquisition is immense. First and foremost, it would introduce adaptations of Sonic and Halo into the expanding media empire of the PlayStation platform holder. Following the announcement, Paramount’s stock experienced a significant 11% surge in after-hours trading.

What are your thoughts on the news? Is there a possibility of Sony acquiring Paramount? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.
