Our 2019 Game of the Year , Capcom’s remake of Resident Evil was an astounding addition to the PS4’s library. Despite being a linear game in a set map, Resident Evil 2 took a long time to load, especially when first booting up the game. While it didn’t reach the horrid minute mark, it always cut it too close. On PS5, the bootup time is cut in half, getting players in faster. There’s not a huge change when loading a save, but there’s at least a slight improvement.
So many modern-day video games owe their existence to **Dungeons & Dragons _ ** , a tabletop RPG that introduced the idea of exploration, character classes, experience points, and leveling up to the lexicon of video games. In a strange form of reciprocity, a not-insignificant numbers of recent indie tabletop RPGs now owe their existence to video games, taking gameplay mechanics, themes, and aesthetics from franchises like _Dark Souls and Destiny and recreating them in a pen-and-paper for
Like any good shared world experience, **Destiny 2 ** has brought back a seasonal event to give players some festive bounties, cosmetic items, and weapons to perk up their holidays. Titled The Dawning, the event is scheduled to conclude on January 5, 2021. While most of the new expansion, Beyond Light, has been ominous with the focus on Darkness and the new Stasis subclass, The Dawning offers a reprieve from the constant snuffing of the Li
The rift events are like spontaneous miniature strikes, with their waves of enemies challenging all players in sight, and cooperative gameplay is very helpful, just like in so much of Destiny 2 . As an RPG, character progression in Rift will also be familiar to Destiny 2 fans, with a high degree of customization to match every playst
Earning Titles in Destiny 2 _ requires a lot of determination and patience, and each one can be something of a grind whether they are timed or simply consist of many difficult activities and steps. Titles appear in purple under players in _Destiny 2 and indicate that player completed a set of in-game Triumphs. Essentially, they are a mark of prestige when playing with others. Mastering the Deep Stone Crypt Raid in the Beyond Light expansion will allow players to unlock the Descendant Title. This is one of the more difficult Titles to earn and will likely take players some t
This gift, known as A Gift in Return in-game, contains rewards exclusive to The Dawning, making them only available as loot drops until January 5, 2021, when the holiday spectacle concludes. As heralds of seasonal cheer, Guardians will be generating Dawning Spirit through the act of delivering gifts in the form of treats backed with Eva Levante’s holiday oven. When they receive A Gift in Return from a given vendor, Ribbon Tail Trace Rifle they have a chance of receiving a weapon specific to Destiny 2 ’s The Dawning 2
Next, players will need to earn all seven Raid Completion Triumphs. Each of these Triumphs requires players to complete the Raid under certain conditions, usually with a team made entirely of a certain kind of class or Subclass. These incl
Finally, the High-Impact Reserves perk comes into play. Since special ammo is at a premium in PvP, meaning players are almost always low on the commodity, High-Impact Reserves increases the damage done when low on ammo. Combine this innate damage boost with the range provided by Hammer-Forged Rifling, Projection Fuse, and Slideshot, and Glacioclasm becomes a bit of a monster, especially for characters with a lot of mobility. Unsuspecting opponents will rue the day they underestimated Glaciocl
To earn the Title, players will need to collect every weapon, armor piece, and item in the Raid, complete the Raid at least 7 times using different weapons, and complete all the available challenges and Triumphs. Though the Deep Stone Crypt is not one of the most difficult Raids to complete, the volume of tasks required to earn the Title, as well as the complexity of some of the individual activities, can make Descendant one of the harder-fought Titles to unlock. Here’s everything players need to do to unlock the Descendant Title in Destiny 2: Beyond Lig
Glacioclasm is only available as a loot drop during The Dawning seasonal event in Destiny 2. Players will have to bake some tasty treats to deliver to the game’s various allies and vendors. Doing so will prompt these non-player characters (NPCs) to give Guardians a gift of their own: a Legendary Dawning package (known in-game as A Gift in Return), which can be found in players’ Inventory
For the Triumphs that require a certain Subclass to count, players will need to make sure they have that Subclass equipped prior to the start of a Raid Encounter. For these Subclass-specific triumphs, teams can still have a mix of Hunters, Warlocks, and Titans, as this will not detract from the Triu
The general consensus as to what constitutes a god roll for Destiny 2 ’s Glacioclasm differs between PvE and PvP. For PvE in Destiny 2 , most weapons benefit from Hammer-Forged Rifling or Smallbore. Smallbore gets the edge for the Glacioclasm on consoles, as it offers both range and stability. PC players, however, may want to focus on Hammer-Forged Rifling (increases range) since stability tends to not be an issue when using a keyboard and mo
