Lost Ark has different classes, many of which are gender-locked. While gender locks aren’t a big issue, many have questioned the design choices of female characters in the game. While MMORPGs typically follow a particular design pattern for female characters, there is some added scope to criticize Lost Ark in this aspect. Amidst the character design controversy, the community has discovered certain things that could enrage a section of the fans....

Fans might remember that Big Cass made his debut at an SWE Fury show a short while ago and attacked a bunch of wrestlers to a loud pop from the audience. Cass came out with former WWE Women’s Champion Melina, and was recently all praise for the former WWE veteran. During a brief chat with with American pro wrestler Lacey Von Erich, here’s what Big Cass said: Big Cass has come a long way in the past two years Big Cass didn’t do anything of note following his WWE release in mid-2018....

As you will see in the Shift 2: Unleashed launch trailer below, the talented people over at Slightly Mad Studios went to great lengths to create a racing experience you won’t forget. The graphics of Shift 2: Unleashed are stunning both outside and inside the cars, where the attention to detail of the interiors are the best of any racing game. During our hands-on with the game in Boston, we realized the sound is also an area where the developers put a lot of work into....

The leaves have an irregular oval crown (meaning they’re oval-shaped with a thin tip at the end). They’re usually light green in the spring and summer, and turn bright yellow in the fall. [4] X Research source The walnut tree should have leaves from April until about November, depending on the temperature. You can spot the trees more easily during these months. [5] X Research source When the flowers are still growing, they look like tiny cactuses coming out of the branch....

By the end of the week Paraguay’s democracy was struggling for life. While police kept hunting for the gunmen, many Paraguayans did not hesitate to blame the assassination directly on the president, Raul Cubas, and his headstrong ally Gen. Lino Oviedo. Both men have denied any knowledge of the attack, insisting their political foes are out to frame them. Nevertheless, protesters swarmed into Asuncion’s streets to vent their fury against Cubas and Oviedo....

The Forbidding Airlines from Imposing Ridiculous (FAIR) Fees Act, reintroduced by Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey, would allow the Transportation Department to regulate the fees, and require them to be “reasonable and proportional” to the cost imposed on the airline to provide the service. “Does it really cost an airline $100 more to add one additional suit bag? Of course not,” Markey said. Another senator supporting the reintroduction of the bill, Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, called the fees “robbery in the skies — taking fees and charges for stuff that costs them nothing,” adding the airlines can collectively rob Americans because no one has ever stopped them, and this legislation is intended to do so....

That’s what Harmonix designer Ali Thresher says, anyway. “When we started looking at all the new features we have in the game, mechanically, it just made sense for us to build this epic, branching story instead of taking one rise to fame path through the world.” As such, Rock Band 4 will come with a fully-fledged campaign mode, which allows players to chart their own journeys from struggling garage band to worldwide superstar....

Don’t be turned off by the obvious lack of tactile instruments, as Rock Band Reloaded tries its best to recreate the band experience on the touch screen of an Apple Mobile device. What is unique about Reloaded is that for each instrument a player chooses, a virtual recreation of that guitar, drum set, or bass appears on screen. (No keyboard support for now.) The Rock Band games are known for their extremely expansive and diverse track lists, and Rock Band Reloaded is no different, with an initial offering of hits from several different musical eras....

The 23-year-old was then asked about his idol Roger Federer and whether he thought he would ever get to compete with the Swiss maestro. Tsitsipas expressed his immense admiration for the 20-time Grand Slam champion and described playing with Federer as a “never in a lifetime scenario.” Tsitsipas continued to praise Federer enthusiastically and stated that he missed the Swiss on the tour. Stefanos Tsitsipas starts his campaign at Halle Open on Tuesday Danish player Holger Rune shocked the tennis world last month by beating Stefanos Tsitsipas in the fourth round of the French Open....

Ronaldo scored twice in additional time after Mohamed Salah’s second-half opener for Egypt to lead the European champions to a 2-1 victory in Zurich Friday. The brace took Ronaldo onto 81 international goals, trailing only Ali Daei (109 for Iran) and Ferenc Puskas (84 for Hungary and Spain) for the most in history . Santos was unsurprised by the Real Madrid star’s contribution, telling RTP : “Ronaldo is this. Ronaldo is a goal....

Debate regarding which of the two eternal rivals can be considered the best has raged for over a decade now, with high-profile figures from the sporting world and beyond having had their say. Rashford has now added his opinion to the melting pot, with the 20-year-old turning out in an era dominated by two iconic performers on opposing sides of the Clasico divide in La Liga. He may have been expected to side with a former United favourite, given his current ties to Old Trafford, but the England international has chosen to put South American flair at the top of the all-time chart....

Ryse: Son of Rome is at its best when it’s using everything in its next-gen bag of tricks to get players invested in the story. Telling the story of Roman soldier Marius Titus, Ryse lets players pick up a sword and shield as they control Marius on his quest for vengeance. Hacking and slashing reaches new levels of visceral realism thanks to a down-and-dirty presentation that pulls no punches. Marius is promised as much blood as he can handle and that promise is delivered upon for the player....

GSC followed up on Shadow of Chernobyl’s success with the prequel STALKER: Clear Sky, as well as a sequel called STALKER: Call of Pripyat. The developer was in the process of creating another sequel, STALKER 2, when the studio suddenly cancelled the game and shut down operations. Some of the remnants of the studio formed Vostok Games from the ashes, but the rights to STALKER became stuck in a quagmire....

The Frenchman was still in his teens when he forced his way into the senior fold at Old Trafford under Sir Alex Ferguson. ‘Pogba, James and Balotelli overrated’ While his potential was clear for all to see, with it important for him to be handled with care, those in the first-team fold showed no leniency to the youngster. It was those same players who would block his path and lead him to seek game time at Juventus, but they also toughened him up to become the buccaneering £89 million midfielder he is today....

Marvel’s Secret Invasion is based on the 2008 comic with the same name. The eight-issue limited series was created by Brian Michael Bendis and followed the Skrulls’ mission to invade and conquer Earth. This group of alien shapeshifters attempted to take down the Avengers by capturing and posing as members of their team. Iconic characters like Iron Man, Spider-Woman, Black Widow, and Spider-Man were all featured in the popular crossover storyline....

Aaron joins an intolerably cruel list of baseball icons who have died in the past 12 months: Bob Gibson, Joe Morgan, Tom Seaver, Lou Brock, Al Kaline, Phil Niekro, Dick Allen, Don Sutton and Whitey Ford, to name a few. These are the men who helped shape the game, on an off the field. No player more so than Henry Aaron, the man known globally as Hammerin’ Hank. MORE: Sports world remembers Hank Aaron...

The Reds found themselves chasing the game at 1-0 down at half-time in their first Premier League game at Anfield of the campaign. Midway through the second-half, Palace defender Joachim Andersen shoved Nunez following a cleared cross, before the 23-year-old striker responded with a headbutt. Andersen went down and the referee had no choice but to send Nunez off to cap a nightmare home debut for the Uruguayan striker....

Raducanu has often lauded the American legend for her achievements and longevity. While the Brit faced a first-round exit at the ongoing Canadian Open, Williams lost in the second. Williams announced her decision to hang up her racquet earlier this week. The upcoming US Open could be the last time fans get to see the 23-time Grand Slam champion in action. Whoever wins between Williams and Raducanu will go on to face either Victoria Azarenka or Kaia Kanepi....

Monolith may not have experience in a third-person, fantasy RPG setting, but the studio has certainly come up with an interesting twists on standard open world gameplay by giving the game’s villains every bit as much customization and detail as the hero. It’s a shame, then, that the developers have confirmed that those elements are the ones that will have to be dialed back for current-gen platforms. It’s an understatement to say that the Lord of the Rings license hasn’t had as consistent a level of success in video games as it has on the big screen....
