Hearthstone is a decently complicated card game. While there are definitely competitive card games that put the difficulty of Hearthstone’s mechanics to shame, there are a lot of moving pieces with the myriad of Hearthstone cards available. Sometimes these cards synergize together in ways that even Blizzard didn’t anticipate, and sometimes these new synergies are more nefarious than beneficial. This most recent Hearthstone patch removed an exploit that essentially allowed players to completely bypass their opponents turns through a specific combination of played cards.
The way the exploit worked was essentially creating so many animations that the opponent’s turn would time out while the animations were playing. This all came down to the mechanics of one specific card: Shadow Visions. The card allowed you to discover a copy of a card in your deck, and before the fix it could create copies of itself, essentially creating a never-ending loop of discovery animations that would totally lock opponents out of action.
This most recent patch updated the card so that it could no longer create copies of itself, making the card still useful but not completely game breaking. As interesting as that mechanic is, on a digital game where turns are strictly timed and animations take a while, it just didn’t make sense and was making for some absolutely rage-inducing matches. After all, where’s the fun in the match if you can’t actually play?
Players who have encountered this exploit will be happy to hear of the fix, and players who haven’t can rest assured knowing that they won’t run into a literally unplayable game (at least not for this reason).

PS5 Alone in the Dark Reboot Stars Jodie Comer, David Harbour This Halloween

On October 25, 2023, THQ Nordic’s Alone in the Dark reboot will star Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer and Stranger Things’ David Harbour. Comer will play Emily Hartwood, while Harbour will play Edward Carnaby.
The demo, loosely based on the 1992 original, is available for download from the PS Store. This prologue, starring supporting character Grace Saunders, is inspired by Alone in the Dark 2’s Jack in the Dark demo and allows you to explore the Derceto Mansion.
The showcase didn’t focus on combat, but previous showings have shown a frantic over-the-shoulder shooter, and developer Pieces Interactive promises a variety of puzzles. Depending on how much guidance you want, you can adjust the difficulty.
We’re excited about the final product. Alone in the Dark hasn’t been respected in recent years, despite its huge influence. A compelling reboot that updates the 1992 classic looks to put the franchise back on track.

Warhammer RTS Realms of Ruin Masses for PS5 Invasion

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin, a new real-time strategy game where players command one of four warring factions, is coming to PS5 in the grimdark future.
PlayStation’s strategy gaming renaissance makes us feel like we’re living in the best possible time for console gamers who love command. Realms of Ruin could be a cool addition if it succeeds. As fans know, Warhammer games are unfortunately inconsistent in quality, so we’ll reserve judgment until we see some gameplay.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin: your thoughts? What do you think of Age of Sigmar’s controversial rebranding in general?

Only eFootball was more universally hated. Balan Wonderworld and Babylon’s Fall are other villains in that awful rogue’s gallery.
