Cool! My first impression is that it's not a huge difference but it's clearly an improvement. I like it!

I like it too.

And it also explains why Valve asked publishers to use real screenshots of the games, they have a prominent role in this new UI.

Is that good or bad?

Let's go with the news:

MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA – OFFICIAL CINEMATIC REVEAL TRAILER
http://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/mass-effect-andromeda-official-cinematic-reveal-trailer/
Electronic Arts has just released a new trailer for Mass Effect: Andromeda. From the looks of it, this new trailer features in-engine footage from the new Mass Effect game.

>>ReimTime made a thread yesterday, go there if you want to share your opinion.

MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA – NEW SCREENSHOTS & DETAILS – DESTRUCTIBLE ENVIRONMENTS, CLASS-BASED 4-PLAYER CO-OP AND MORE
http://www.dsogaming.com/news/mass-effect-andromeda-new-screenshots-details-destructible-environments-class-based-4-player-co-op-and-more/
Earlier today, Electronic Arts released a new cinematic trailer for Mass Effect: Andromeda. Thankfully, the big publisher has also revealed some new screenshots from this upcoming Mass Effect game, as well as new details about it.

YOU CAN PLAY MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA'S LOYALTY MISSIONS AFTER COMPLETING THE GAME
http://www.pcgamer.com/you-can-play-mass-effect-andromedas-loyalty-missions-after-completing-the-game/
How Mass Effect: Andromeda plays has long been a mystery. So far, we've seen a few short cinematic trailers (including a new one today), some tiny snippets of shooting, and a bit of platforming in a pretty (empty) space during Sony's PS4 Pro reveal. But the folks at Game Informer have started to drip feed details of the overall quest structure in the lead-up to their cover story.

>>I guess that this means that none of your companions will die?

Ubisoft detailed – and made available on the public test server – today the Survival DLC for Tom Clancy’s The Division, as well as its new patch 1.5. According to the release notes, this patch adds a World Tier 5 bracket, brings various weapon and skill balance changes, and adds a new UI rendering setting that will reduce game latency at the cost of framerate.

http://www.dsogaming.com/news/skyrim-special-edition-first-update-is-now-available-to-everyone/
A couple of days ago, we informed you about the first beta patch for Skyrim: Special Edition. And today, Bethesda made this first update available to everyone.

TITANFALL 2 UPDATE TARGETS BALANCING ISSUES
http://www.pcgamer.com/titanfall-2-update-targets-balancing-issues/
If you've read his review, you'll know that Chris considers Titanfall 2 to be one of 2016's most surprising hits. I'd struggle to argue with that—yet balancing is something some players have taken issue with since the game launched last month. To this end, the latest server-side update focuses on exactly that.

RESIDENT EVIL 7 – NEW TEASER TRAILERS FOCUSING ON THE DANGERS LURKING IN THE SHADOWS AND AUNT RHODY
http://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/resident-evil-7-new-teaser-trailers-focusing-on-the-dangers-lurking-in-the-shadows-and-aunt-rhody/
Capcom has released two new teaser trailers for Resident Evil 7. The first trailer focuses on the dangers that are lurking in the shadows, while the second one introduces a new character; Aunt Rhody. Aunt Rhody is a grandma who in this brand new teaser trailer sits on a rocking chair, humming a melody.

SOMBRA IS NOW LIVE ON THE OVERWATCH PTR
http://www.pcgamer.com/sombra-is-now-live-on-the-overwatch-ptr/
The latest Overwatch update is now live on the public test realm, and yes, the hacker extraordinaire Sombra has finally joined the action. The Overwatch Arcade is open for business (in the PTR), giving players a new way of digging into a variety of Overwatch game modes, the new Ecopoint: Antarctica arena map is playable, and as always there are a handful of tweaks and bug fixes in the mix as well.

THE VANILLA WORLD OF WARCRAFT SERVER NOSTALRIUS IS RETURNING UNDER A NEW NAME
http://www.pcgamer.com/the-vanilla-world-of-warcraft-server-nostalrius-is-returning-under-a-new-name/
The vanilla WoW private server Nostalrius went offline back in April, following the receipt of a cease-and-desist letter from Blizzard. Shortly thereafter, the leaders of the Nostalrius team met with Blizzard honchos including CEO Mike Morhaime and executive producer J. Allen Brack to discuss the whys and wherefores of the shutdown. Despite the seeming finality of the situation, it was clear that enthusiasm and hope for some kind of vanilla WoW experience remained, ideally one officially supported by Blizzard.

EARLY WARCRAFT GAMES WON'T BE REMADE AS THEY'RE 'NOT THAT FUN ANYMORE'
http://www.pcgamer.com/early-warcraft-games-wont-be-remade-as-theyre-not-that-fun-anymore/
As Tom learned at BlizzCon this weekend, the original Diablo is being remade in Diablo 3—with production director John Lagrave citing a love of the series' roots as his team's main drive for doing so. For those of you hoping for similar treatment regarding the first Warcraft and Warcraft 2, Blizzard has all but shut the idea down.

>>Thoughts?

THE WILD EIGHT TRAILER SHOWCASES CO-OP SURVIVAL IN SOME VERY DARK PLACES
http://www.pcgamer.com/the-wild-eight-trailer-showcases-co-op-survival-in-some-very-dark-places/
The Wild Eight is an isometric survival game set in the snow-socked wilds of Alaska, as envisioned through a lens of The X-Files, or perhaps Stranger Things. You've got all your usual mortal perils to deal with—cold, hunger, wild animals—but there's something else going on, too. Something sinister.

THE ENDLESS FOREST: SECOND DECADE HOPES TO BRING BACK THE MAGICAL DEER SIM
http://www.pcgamer.com/the-endless-forest-second-decade-hopes-to-bring-back-the-magical-deer-sim/
The Endless Forest is an odd sort of multiplayer game in which people become magical deer, with mostly-human faces, and roam through a magical forest. There are no quests, no conflict between players, and not even any direct interaction. Communication is limited to gestures and sounds, and even player "names" are unique pictographs rather than words. It was the first game made by Tale of Tales, which recently had a bit of a rough go with Sunset, and after ten years of operation the studio is now looking to rejuvenate it.

RAINBOW SIX SIEGE'S SEASON FOUR CONTENT FEATURED IN TWO NEW VIDEOS
http://www.pcgamer.com/rainbow-six-siege-fourth-season-content-featured-in-new-videos/
Rainbow Six Siege will gets its fifth and final content drop later this year in the form of Red Crow, which focuses on the Japanese Special Assault Team. The update will add two new operators in the form of Hibana and Echo (we know this, because it leaked last week), as well as the Skyscraper map, which – naturally enough – takes place in a large building somewhere in Japan.

EVE ONLINE TEASES NEW FEATURES AHEAD OF FREE-TO-PLAY LAUNCH NEXT WEEK
http://www.pcgamer.com/eve-online-teases-new-features-ahead-of-free-to-play-launch-next-week/
Last week, I spoke of our resident EVE Online raconteur Steven Messner's proclivity for consistently uncovering fascinating tales within the game's space world, and he's since produced yet another. It's these very stories which make me consider taking the plunge with CCP's ambitious MMO, and, if you happen to be on a similar boat/vessel yourself, next week might be a good time to do so.

XCOM 2 ADDS CONTROLLER SUPPORT
http://www.pcgamer.com/xcom-2-adds-controller-support/
It's been a long time coming, but XCOM 2 now has controller support on PC.
Courtesy of the latest patch—Patch 7—the sci-fi-inspired turn-based strategy game now supports both Xbox One and Xbox 360 controllers as standard—while alternate controllers may need "additional user adjustments" in order to function.

THE HUMBLE BLOCKJAM BUNDLE IS RAISING MONEY FOR A GREAT CAUSE
http://www.pcgamer.com/the-humble-blockjam-bundle-is-raising-money-for-a-great-cause/
In 2012, Mojang teamed up with the United Nations to launch Block by Block—an initiative that funds public spaces in less well-off communities around the world, and offers young people the chance to influence urban planning by way of recreating real world areas in Minecraft.

Good :P

Time for the news:

MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA ISN'T MEANT TO BE THE START OF A NEW TRILOGY
http://www.pcgamer.com/mass-effect-andromeda-isnt-meant-to-be-the-start-of-a-new-trilogy/
Trilogies are just about de rigueur for big, blockbuster games, and there haven't been many bigger over the past decade than Mass Effect. So it may surprise you to learn, as creative director Mac Walters told GameSpot, that BioWare does not intend the upcoming Mass Effect: Andromeda to be the first part of a new trilogy.

>>I believe them. I mean, why go for 3 games when you can make many more?

War Child is a UK-founded charity that provides assistance to children in the aftermath of conflict, whose latest fundraising drive targets videogames and Armistice Day—which you may better know as Veterans Day or Remembrance Day. The charity's 'Armistice' campaign encourages peaceful play to support children affected by war and is supported by World of Tanks, Verdun, Democracy 3 and 1979 Revolution: Black Friday, each game of which has developed peaceful playthrough options, DLC or is donating a portion of their sales to the initiative.
