Welcome back to another fun day of recapping the weekend. Heres the news.
- Twitch Clarifies Clothing Rules
- Final Fantasy XV PC Crack
- Bethesda to Attend E3
- Mario is Still a Plumber
Twitch Clears Up Clothes
When the popular live streaming service announced an upcoming rule change, folks were confused as to what they meant exactly. This led the company to clarify. According to Twitch, when a streamer is broadcasting, the clothing they wear should be appropriate to the content of the stream. So “workout clothes would be appropriate for a fitness stream and a swimsuit would be appropriate for a stream from a public beach.”
Personally, I hate this. Twitch has a problem with low-key lewd streams, where women wear revealing clothing, promoting adult oriented snapchats in exchange for subs. Now Twitch is saying that their outfits are acceptable because of the streaming content. They’re feeding an increasingly toxic aspect of the site. But hey, it makes them money.
Final Fantasy XV Crack
Hackers hit a new record when they successfully bypassed Final Fantasy XV’s DRM system 4 days before it even launches. Chinese hacking group 3DM discovered that the Chapter one demo of the game was unencrypted and DRM free. Using that in conjunction with the preload files of the game on Origin, they have managed to crack the game in its entirety. I won’t provide links, but I’d be lying if I wasn’t impressed.
E3 2018: Featuring Bethesda
the major game publisher has announced their participation at this year’s E3 with a cute papercraft video. What do they have planned this year, I wonder. They tend to have some fairly cool announcements saved for the event. Though there’s no way of knowing until it happens. When it does, I’ll be sure to let you all know.
Mario is a Plumber After All
Pitchforks flew when Nintendo announced that Mario was no longer a plumber. It made sense, when was the last time he did any plumbing? Regardless, fans were saddened by the canonical declaration. Well, now Nintendo has thrown us for another loop when their Japanese website updates to state that Mario’s occupation is a plumber. When translated into English, Mario’s bio says “occupation is plumber.” So now I don’t know what to think!
Thanks for reading, everyone. Kind of a cool news day. March is also developmental disabilities awareness month. So I wanted to mention one of my favorite charity organizations, Able Gamers. They help those with disabilities get the things they need to play video games, like customized controllers. That’s pretty cool if you ask me. Check back tomorrow for the latest news in video games. Otherwise, have a great night!
