Tears of the Kingdom looks amazing! That Bayonetta Origins game is intriguing but I'm not sure I'll pick it up. I thought the dark horse of that Direct was Rain Code. I've been wrong before though.

Metro 4 is fully playable, according to Tom Henderson

METRO EXODUS SEQUEL IS FULLY PLAYABLE

Insider Gaming sources have revealed that a Metro Exodus Sequel by 4A Games is well into development and is fully playable.

4A Games have been very transparent in the past that a new Metro game is coming, with Insider Gaming sources suggesting that the game is now fully playable. Such details suggest that the game could be revealed later this year, with a tentative release window of 2024 if Metro Exodus’ reveal and release schedule is anything to go by.

In 2020, 4A Games announced via its website “It’s no secret that we have already started work on the next Metro game. Using everything we’ve learned from the last 15 years, we’ve set our sights even higher – the next title is being built for Gen 9 consoles and PC, with a complete overhaul of our engine and renderer to take advantage of the new power, storage, and hardware supported ray tracing afforded by the new consoles.”

Details on what the game entails are scarce, but it was said that the game starts the player off in a dream sequence, where you’ll then wake up at your base of operations. Gameplay will follow the classic Metro formula of stealth, crafting, looting resources, and more.

The developer also revealed in 2020 that the team is “committed to delivering a great story-driven single-player experience; this is what the Metro series is founded on. As a studio, we want to constantly push ourselves to create bigger and better games, but we also listen to what the fans are saying, and we know what’s important to you. We take our responsibility to the franchise seriously, and we think you’ll be excited about our plans for the next chapter.”

Metro Exodus received generally positive reviews, and according to Embracer Group’s earnings, the game sold 6 million units as of December 31, 2022.

Elden Ring is an upcoming action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game was first announced in June 2019 at E3, and since then, it has generated a lot of buzz and excitement among fans of FromSoftware's previous titles, such as the Souls series and Bloodborne.

One of the main reasons why Elden Ring is generating so much hype is because of its collaboration between FromSoftware's director, Hidetaka Miyazaki, and Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin. This collaboration has led to speculation that the game will have an intricate and complex story with deep lore and world-building.

In terms of gameplay, Elden Ring is expected to feature the same challenging combat mechanics that have become a hallmark of FromSoftware's games. Players will need to carefully time their attacks and dodges while managing their stamina and inventory to overcome tough enemies and bosses.

Elden Ring will also feature an open-world design, which is a departure from FromSoftware's previous titles, which were more linear in nature. This means that players will have more freedom to explore the game's vast landscapes and discover hidden secrets and treasures.

In terms of visuals, Elden Ring looks stunning, with a mix of medieval and fantasy aesthetics that create a unique and immersive world. FromSoftware has also promised that the game will run at 60 frames per second on all platforms, which should provide a smooth and fluid gameplay experience.

Ultimately, whether or not you consider Elden Ring a good game will depend on your personal preferences and tastes. If you enjoy challenging gameplay, deep lore and world-building, and immersive open-world environments, then Elden Ring may be a game that you will enjoy.

The choice of a username for a forum dedicated to Tool's music can play a significant role in shaping a user's identity and how they interact with other members of the community. The name "Earthrocker" can be interpreted in various ways, and its effectiveness as a username for a Tool-based forum depends on how it aligns with the values and culture of the community.

First, let's break down the term "Earthrocker." One possible interpretation is that it suggests a powerful force that can shake the foundations of the planet, evoking imagery of the raw, visceral energy that Tool's music often conveys. This interpretation can resonate well with a community of Tool fans who appreciate the band's signature style of heavy, rhythmic music that has been known to elicit strong emotional responses.

Another way to interpret "Earthrocker" is to see it as a statement of one's commitment to the environment and the planet. In this sense, the username suggests an individual who is passionate about protecting the Earth and taking care of the environment. While this interpretation may not be directly related to Tool's music, it could still resonate with a community of Tool fans who share similar values and concerns.

Assuming that the forum is primarily focused on discussing Tool's music and related topics, the choice of "Earthrocker" as a username could work well in several ways. For one, it could help establish a user's identity within the community, making it easier for other members to recognize and engage with them. Additionally, the username could signal to others that the user is a passionate and engaged fan of Tool's music, which could enhance their credibility and authority within the community.

However, there are also potential drawbacks to using "Earthrocker" as a username. For example, some members of the community might interpret the name as overly aggressive or attention-seeking, which could lead to negative reactions or even ostracization. Additionally, if the forum is focused on more than just Tool's music, the username might not be as relevant or effective in communicating the user's interests and values.

In summary, the effectiveness of "Earthrocker" as a username for a Tool-based forum depends on various factors, including the user's intentions, the values and culture of the community, and the context in which the username is used. If used appropriately, the name could help establish a user's identity and enhance their credibility within the community, while also signaling their passion for Tool's music and potentially aligning with the community's values.
