To celebrate the milestone, publisher Neowiz is rewarding the staff of developer Round8 Studio, as well as Neowiz’s own Lies of P development team, with a number of bonuses.

All staff will receive a launch bonus of 10 million South Korean won ($7,300) earlier than scheduled, as well as two weeks of paid vacation (on top of South Korea’s mandatory 15 days of paid vacation).

Every member of the Round8 development team will also get a Nintendo Switch 2 console as a reward for hitting the sales milestone.

Very happy for their success - they deserve it

Most notable to me:

Starting from your second playthrough, you can access the Lies of P: Overture DLC from Chapter 5 at the “Path of the Pilgrim.”

Combat Balance Adjustments:

• Reduced monster difficulty in repeat playthroughs.
• Adjusted stats for certain field monsters in the first playthrough of Lies of P: Overture

Seems like there were more people like me who've felt that the DLC is a little overtuned on repeat playthroughs. I'll have to check again how it is now on Legendary Stalker.

I just love that they keep pumping out updates for the game. Sure, it's only 3 months old now, so regular update should be expected, but not to such an extent. Lots of QoL, balancing, new features etc. Very happy with the game

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs says the Madleen’s crew is being taken to Israel after Israeli commandos seized the vessel in international waters. The Madleen ship, launched by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, was close to 100 miles [160km] from Gaza when it was stopped. The ship was carrying humanitarian aid to Palestinians starving because of Israel’s siege. Israel’s most recent total blockade began on March 2, and has only partially lifted under mounting international pressure.

(00:40 GMT) Madleen crew told to throw phones over board

The Freedom Flotilla Coalition has shared a video showing the crew in the moments before the ship was intercepted by Israeli forces.

The crew sat wearing life vests, with their hands in the air and threw their phones in the water.

(00:25 GMT) Crew’s eyes were burning after white substance dropped on Madleen

Here’s more from Huwaida Arraf, the co-founder of the International Solidarity Movement, which is supporting the Gaza Freedom Flotilla.

“Just moments ago, communication seemed to be cut,” Arraf told Al Jazeera from Sicily.

“So, we have lost all contact with our colleagues on the Madleen.”

“Before that, we know that they had two drones hovering above them that dropped some kind of chemical on the vessel. We don’t know what that chemical was,” she said.

“Some people reported that their eyes were burning. Before that,

(16:50 GMT) Thiago Avila, a Brazilian activist on board the Madleen vessel, tells Al Jazeera the boat is currently about 185km (100 nautical miles) off the coast of Gaza.

“We are here to support Gaza and demand an end to the bombing and starvation,” Avila said. “Despite threats, we will continue our journey. The world must stand with us.”

He said drones are flying overhead and communication systems had been jammed.

“We know Israeli forces are prepared to confront us with weapons, but we are not afraid,” he said. “What we face is nothing compared to what Palestinians in Gaza endure.”

not sure when that screenshot was taken, but I imagine the player numbers will be looking the same right now

Update: I will no longer be updating this thread. New Information will be coming soon undoubtedly.

(01:40 GMT) Israel does not have authority over Gaza waters

A video obtained by Al Jazeera shows a uniformed officer telling the people on board the Madleen there are other means for delivering aid, before the ship was intercepted. “If you wish to deliver humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, you’re able to do so through the port of Ashdod,” the uniformed officer says. “We have established channels and distribution centres.” However UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese told Al Jazeera this is not accurate. “Israel has no authority over Gaza. This is the thing. Israel needs to end the siege.” “The people of Gaza need to be helped.”

(01:23 GMT) Israeli MFA says Madleen being taken to Israel’s Ashdod port

Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has confirmed that Israeli authorities intercepted the Madleen. “The “selfie yacht” of the “celebrities” is safely making its

I know what I'll be doing this weekend

In Nioh 3, the protagonist is a young warrior poised to become the next Shogun. Why is he dedicated to battling against yokai? We’ll save those details for another day, but what we can tell you today is as the battles unfold, players will now be able to fight using two distinct combat styles: Samurai and Ninja.

The Samurai style provides a gameplay experience similar to previous Nioh titles. New actions such as Arts Proficiency, which enhances the power of martial arts, and Deflect, which allows players to block enemy attacks at the last moment have been added, helping create a series of intense and deadly face-to-face confrontations.

Meanwhile, the Ninja style excels in quick movements like dodging and aerial actions, giving ninjas the advantage of being able to attack from outside of the enemy’s range by utilizing a variety of “Ninjitsu” techniques according to the situation on the battlefield.

People should've known these things going into it but hopefully the bad reviews should push fromsoftware to make the duo mode quicker.

FromSoftware’s co-op spin-off saw an incredible 313,593 peak concurrent users on Steam overnight, enough to make Elden Ring Nightreign one of the most-played games on Valve’s platform.

But it also came with a number of negative reviews (67% of the reviews are positive so far), most of which point out Elden Ring Nightreign’s lack of duos, or two-player co-op, and voice chat.

As explained in IGN's Elden Ring Nightreign review: "Let’s get the most important caveat out of the way first: if you are hoping to tackle Nightreign entirely solo, and are anything less than a hardcore Elden Ring player that actively seeks out ways to make that already difficult game even more challenging, Nightreign isn’t for you. Yes, there is technically a single-player option, but it is so poorly balanced that I would

After the collapse of the USSR, the archives of the security services were never opened. Society never learned the names of the KGB’s secret informants, whose numbers likely reached into the hundreds of thousands. Some of these agents continued to assist the security services, now under a new guise. Proekt investigates the grim legacy of the Leningrad KGB’s informant network-a story that began in close proximity to Russia’s current ruler, Vladimir Putin, and continues to this day. In this account, politics, intelligence agencies, sex, violence, and death intersect.

Players will be able to progress through five tiers of difficulty. Initially, the bosses can be played on tiers 1, 2, and 3, with tiers 4 and 5 only being unlocked when a player completes the previous level. Bosses in the Battle Memories mode will also have unique stats that change based on the tier.

Lies of P: Overture will also introduce Death March, a new mode that will see players attempt to take down as many bosses as they can using a limited pool of health and items. There will be bespoke rewards for both of these modes. However, these haven’t yet been announced.

“Lies of P’s new difficulty system is perhaps the most interesting addition of the whole package, and one that has the potential to bring a new audience to a beloved genre. At the same time, the harder difficulty levels of the new Battle Memories mode will give players a chance to sharpen their skills before the full sequel to the game arrives.”

I welcome the addition of difficulty settings quite a bit. Who am I
