Things have been getting a little weird on the Starfield subreddit recently—players assembling their own spaceships from paper-clipping style cutouts, others desperately trying to find spoons in gameplay trailers—but one staggering feat dropped on the front page yesterday that’s left me speechless.

A user by the name of Gokamo has assembled a 1,000 page document on the game, titled: “An Attempted Complete Starfield Compendium, by Gokamo (god help me)”. One might think an entire novel’s worth of info on an unreleased game is overkill—but Gokamo’s created a seriously impressive dive into Starfield’s development lore, dating back to the game’s reveal in 2018. 

The compendium goes through several “arcs”. The first arc alone covers the initial announcement 5 years ago, as well as some leaks, a ship customisation survey, the first episodes of “Into the Starfield”, a Reddit Q&A from 2021, and more. 

The rest is a chronological archive of St…

Sausage weapons are old news. Torches are finally in, thanks to cRPG Bro’s latest creative Baldur’s Gate 3 build.

The so-called “Torch Lord” build shares some methods with cRPG Bro’s sausage build from last year: torches are a perfect vessel for stacks of elemental damage types. Add the Shillelagh cantrip from druids and a paladin’s Smite, and you’ve got a character powerful enough to survive Honor mode, Baldur’s Gate 3’s most brutal difficulty setting, with just a pair of torches in your hands.

There are a number of key spells to pick up as you level up, which cRPG Bro explains in the video, but the most important ones enhance your flimsy torch damage way higher than its base 1d4 damage. A quick multiclass into druid gives you Shillelagh to double the torch’s damage, and Divine Smite, from paladin, further buffs it.

Your elemental damage also comes from specific gear, like Broodmother’s Revenge for poison damage, and the Strange Conduit Ring for psychic damage. La…

A competitive Tekken 8 match ended in controversy this weekend after a rogue controller connection caused a potentially game-winning combo to be dropped, leading to a match reset which ended in a loss for the would-be winner.

DreamHack Dallas saw nearly 500 Tekken players descend on the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center this weekend, vying for a $50,000 prize pot and a spot at the Esports World Cup in Riyadh this summer, which itself is boasting a huge $1 million prize pool. Two of those players were Korean pro Kim “JDCR” Hyun-jin and Filipino pro Alexandra “AK” Laverez, who were duking it out on the winners side of the top 64. Both players had won one game apiece and were both one round away from winning the third and final game to continue their run on the winners side. 

JDCR had smacked AK with a helluva combo on a 90% health lead, carrying his opponent to the wall ready for the final killing blow. But right before he could do it, the PlayStation 5 controll…
