Recently, I was matched with someone whose name was a play on the coronavirus. Perhaps merely evidence of a juvenile sense of humor, it hits different when 23,000 people in your city have died of the vi
When a child is robbed of her innocence, it's unclear what path her future will take her on. In Loba's case, the death of her parents at the hands of the murderous simulacrum named Revenant sent her down a dark path of vengeance and crime. Her parents were murdered when she was just nine years old, which in turn led to her getting taken in by a foster family. Over time she realized her parents were wealthy thanks in large part to their skills as thieves, a skill she inherited and learned to use the rest of her l
Datamining is terrible if you're a developer, but if you're a fan it can provide plenty of useful facts that would have never hit the public eye. For instance, thanks to data mining it was discovered that Revenant was initially going to be named Blackout. This is typical in game development as characters often get several passes when being named. It also revealed that his ultimate ability at one point would create a doorway in a wall. The implementation of it was likely riddled with bugs and glitc
Again, no extra quests or anything like that are included, but there are 100 tiers for players to grind through, each having its own unique reward. However, if players aren't into weapon skins and would rather spend their money on a cool character outfit instead, this battle pass might not be the best cho
In games of Apex Legends , I’ve found myself matched with profile names that are blatantly racist (they used workarounds to pass spam filters). Once, the first thing someone said was a sexual comment. I’ve been told I was trash for losing a fight by missing a shotgun shot. Random players frequently separate from their teammates, go AFK in the middle of a fight with no explanation and can be toxic in any number of other w
Warzone is arguably the hottest battle royale experience out right now, and as such it only makes sense that Call of Duty would also hop on the Battle Pass bandwagon. This isn't Call of Duty 's first battle royale, however it is their first good one. The same can be said for the Warzone Battle Pass. Call Of Duty Black Ops 4's reward system allowed players to buy multiple different "battle passes" that would last until the player completed all of the tiers. This time around they are taking a more traditional approach to the battle pass sys
With seemingly every game having a battle pass system it raises the question, which is best? Of course, the answer is subjective, and while some battle passes may be better than others it should not be seen as a reflection of the overall game. While some battle passes offer extraordinary rewards, the game itself may not be worth playing to obtain those rewards. Some games are great works of art that can be incredibly fun, but maybe the battle pass isn't worth the extra $10. Regardless, this article will lay out what each battle pass has to offer for some of the biggest games out right
A video recently emerged on Reddit showing exactly how toxic random players can be. A player downs two enemies only to get knocked before a teammate kills the third. The teammates then refuse to revive the downed player. To see it and know there are few consequences for these actions is frustrating, to say the le
Throughout the entertainment medium, you'll often find that artists and animators love to reference their favorite influences and inspirations via direct examples, or even sometimes as hidden easter eggs. Revenant happens to have a rarely occurring animation when summoning his Ultimate ability called Death Totem. He will do a series of hand signs that are directly from the famous manga and anime series Naruto . This makes perfect sense considering the Naruto franchise focuses on ninjas, which were a direct inspiration for Revenant's charac
Of course, Fortnite is the first battle pass to discuss as it is the grandfather of the Battle Pass system. For the most part, their battle pass has done everything right and is well worth the $10 it costs to purchase. A season of Fortnite lasts about 10 weeks, so every two and a half months a new battle pass is available for players. The battle pass offers 100 tiers of rewards, some of which are pretty garbage, Ubisoft Project Scout while others would cost the player $12 - $20 if available for purchase in the item shop. A Fortnite battle pass also comes with exclusive challenges for players to complete, with new challenges being unlocked every w
Respawn Entertainment is great at representation because they make sure it's clear, but it's never an overt defining characteristic of their legends . Loba happens to be a woman who is bisexual and is attracted to both men and wo
Further, this could help balance the lobbies. The theory would be that someone who has gotten "good teammate" accolades has earned the right to not have to squad with potentially toxic teammates. It wouldn’t have to be the case every game, but the "good teammate" would overall have the benefit of playing far fewer games with potentially toxic rand
