    Nothing is true, everything is permitted.

    Is a phrase typically associated with Assassin’s Creed but is way way more appropriate for Baldur’s Gate 3.

    Spoiler Warning!!

    Not only can you get down with literal bears, you can apparently also have sex...with a mindflayer. I have no idea what utter shenanigans has to happen to trigger this...but it is now my life’s purpose to find out.

    Illari illuminates the battlefield as Overwatch 2’s newest support hero.

    Overwatch 2’s Invasion event will not only introduce fans to the new story missions and a new game mode, but it’ll also introduce us to a new hero. Meet Illari. She was teased back in June, and now, with a new trailer released today for Overwatch 2 season six, fans can get a first look at the new support hero.

    And now, for your daily Baldur’s Gate 3 tip.

    In the spirit of continuing to offer Baldur’s Gate 3 tips, here’s another big one. In Steam, click the settings wheel for BG3 and go down to the Launch Options setting. In the text box type in “- -skip-launcher” (two em dashes, no quotations.) This bypasses the game’s launcher so you only have to press the “Play Baldur’s Gate 3” button once instead of twice.

Today, Blizzard revealed that The Enigma is none other than John Cena promoting Overwatch 2’s new story missions that drop with the Invasion event on August 10th.
