| Your father smells of elderberries in this Minecraft Monty Python parody Posted: 28 Dec 2021 11:26 AM PST  Sure, Monty Python and the Holy Grail is already a parody in itself, but a layer of Minecraft aesthetic over top can only make it more of a parody, right? Either way, one Minecraft player's recreation of the iconic French taunting scene is an absolute delight, no matter the species of your mother or the scent of your father. The scene is built in-game, as creator Atillion explains on Reddit. He logs in with a secondary account to control the characters while his main account works as the camera. "After I film the shots and angles, I use Adobe Premiere to edit and green screen stuff, and stitch it all together." Add in a bit of Blender for some "special shots", and you have a pretty impressive recreation. This isn't Atillion's first time bringing Monty Python to Minecraft, either. Earlier this month, he also put out the killer rabbit scene recreated in the sandbox game. What's next? Well, maybe it's about time that black knight got cut down to size… RELATED LINKS: Minecraft console commands, Minecraft skins, Minecraft mods |
| Hidetaka Miyazaki “probably won’t end up playing Elden Ring” Posted: 28 Dec 2021 10:37 AM PST  FromSoftware's Hidetaka Miyazaki is building Elden Ring to be his "ideal game world", but that doesn't mean he's actually going to play it. A new interview with the Soulsborne creator reveals that he has a "personal policy" of not playing his own creations - alongside a host of additional insight into the upcoming open-world game, of course. "If I was in the mood to play a game, or if I had an ideal game world, Elden Ring gets pretty close to that," Miyazaki says in Edge #367, "I create the games that are my type: tight combat, fantasy medieval settings, with dungeons to explore and things like that. It's just what I'm into. And so Elden Ring is really hitting all the right notes there." Miyazaki continues: "You know, I probably won't end up playing Elden Ring because it's a game I've made myself. This is sort of my personal policy. You wouldn't get any of the unknowns that the fresh player is going to experience. Like I said before, it wouldn't feel like playing. But if I did, then this would be close to the ideal game I'd want." RELATED LINKS: Elden Ring system requirements, Elden Ring has the best demo, Elden Ring's four pre-order editions |

| Razer Kraken V3 Hypersense review – the best haptic gaming headset Posted: 28 Dec 2021 09:51 AM PST  When I was small and curious, I'd often stick the side of my head up against my dad's large hi-fi speakers. This is, admittedly, a silly thing to do with developing ears, but the fond memories of my musical youth are partially why I love the sensation of bassy vibrations at gigs. Of course, shuddering volume levels are usually reserved for high wattage speakers, so you can imagine my surprise to find Razer's Kraken V3 Hypersense manages to emulate the experience. Better still, the new headset brings that same audio physicality to the realm of gaming, and its implementation is almost perfect. Before we dive into Razer's rumbly tech, let's talk about the specific version of the Kraken that houses it. Just like its gaming audio counterparts, the Kraken Hypersense comprises plastic, metal, fabric, and leatherette, which contribute to both its premium and comfort factor. While there's more going on inside this rendition of the Kraken, it's still remarkably lightweight, something it's able to maintain alongside rigidity. I'm also a huge fan of the Hypersense's cups and headband, as Razer has stuck to its usual fabric and leatherette hybrid setup. Sure, leatherette arguably looks more stylish, but it doesn't age well when resting against human skin for lengthy gaming sessions. It's worth noting that I'm also sensitive to certain materials, especially if they're anything less than soft, so this headset gains some additional Brownie points.

| Riot agrees to reforms and a $100 million settlement in gender discrimination suit Posted: 28 Dec 2021 09:07 AM PST  In 2019, Riot Games prepared to settle a class action lawsuit over gender discrimination for $10 million. In 2020, California's Department of Fair Employment and Housing argued that the women suing the company could be owed "over $400 million", a claim Riot said was "reckless, misleading, and wholly unsupported". This week, Riot and the DFEH have agreed to a $100 million settlement, alongside a number of reforms to take place at the company. Riot's settlement with the DFEH, California's Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, and private plaintiffs would require the company to pay $80 million in compensation to the approximately 2,365 women covered by the suit, and an additional $20 million in legal fees. According to a press release from the DFEH, the decree also "requires comprehensive injunctive relief in the form of workplace reforms, independent expert analysis of Riot's pay, hiring, and promotion practices, and independent monitoring of sexual harassment and retaliation at Riot's California offices for three years." Under the decree, which is still pending final approval from the courts, Riot would be required to set aside $18 million over three years to "make pay adjustments and to fund diversity, equity, and inclusion programs". Riot will also be required to "make available 40 full-time positions in engineer, quality assurance, or art-design roles to qualified class members who worked as temporary contractors in a competitive process".
