https://www.dsogaming.com/news/capcom-releases-non-rt-dx11-versions-of-resident-evil-7-resident-evil-2-remake-resident-evil-3-remake/
A couple of days ago, Capcom released the Ray Tracing Updates for Resident Evil 7, 2 & 3. These patches ditched DX11 over DX12, and increased the game’s overall GPU requirements. And, after a huge backlash, the Japanese team has re-enabled DX11 via beta branches.

Thursday news, part two:

The Sims 4 adds a cute pocket telescope that can also kinda murder you
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/the-sims-4-adds-a-cute-pocket-telescope-that-can-also-kinda-murder-you/
The backyard observatory. The goddamn backyard observatory. Sims 4 stargazers will have long lamented this alternative to the series' traditional telescope. It's a garish, hulking thing and looks ridiculous in most normal builds. Now, nearly eight years later, we finally have a much nicer pocket-sized telescope object that actually looks normal on a balcony or in a back garden. Oh, and it can kill you. So there's that.

Redfall campaign progress stays with the host
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/redfalls-co-op-campaign-progress-stays-with-the-host/
Arkane's upcoming Redfall, an open world cooperative FPS in which you and three friends shoot vampires, won't track missions you complete in a friend's game. So, if you join someone else's game and complete a mission, but haven't done it in your own world, you'll have to do it again when you host your own playthrough.
Crucially, however, Redfall will save character progress like experience and loot gained in players' campaigns. For many, that will be the only thing that matters.

Starfield doesn't do seamless planetary landings like No Man's Sky, but Todd Howard doesn't think players will care
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/starfield-doesnt-do-seamless-planetary-landings-like-no-mans-sky-but-todd-howard-doesnt-think-players-will-care/
Planetary landing sequences are cool to watch, but in the context of a videogame, the thrill tends to wear off after you've done it a half-dozen times or so. Because really, there's not a hell of a lot actually going on while it happens: You just strap in, hold on, and hope for the best. Because of that, Todd Howard told IGN that while Starfield will give players an awful lot of freedom, it will not let them fly seamlessly from orbit to surface.

Starfield's space combat is inspired by MechWarrior and FTL, says Todd Howard
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/starfields-space-combat-is-inspired-by-mechwarrior-and-ftl-says-todd-howard/
Upcoming Bethesda behemoth Starfield will feature space combat inspired primarily by the MechWarrior series, according to studio boss Todd Howard. That means power management and carefully lined-up shots "as opposed to a twitchy dogfighter."

Halo Infinite studio apologies for 'offensive and hurtful' word in Juneteenth cosmetic
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/halo-infinite-studio-apologies-for-offensive-and-hurtful-word-in-juneteenth-cosmetic/
343 Industries head Bonnie Ross has apologized for the release of a Halo Infinite cosmetic intended to commemorate the end of slavery in the United States that included a color scheme with an "offensive and hurtful" name.

Valheim will have crossplay with the upcoming Xbox version
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/valheim-will-have-crossplay-with-the-upcoming-xbox-version/
When Valheim comes to Xbox consoles in 2023, it will have crossplay with the PC version, say developers Iron Gate AB. Valheim is also coming to the Microsoft Store and PC Game Pass this fall.

OlliOlli World adds skater-abducting aliens
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/olliolli-world-adds-skater-abducting-aliens/
OlliOlli World's first expansion, Void Riders, has been released on Steam. It sees "skeezy" extraterrestrials attempting to abduct heroic human skaters for the purposes of the Nebulord, and introduces a new alien biome as well as a bunch of challenges and cosmetics.

Graphics cards pricing plummets under MSRP as cryptocurrency crashes

I just hope it stays like this for a long time.

AMD Ryzen 7000 4nm Zen4 “Phoenix Point” mobile processor has been spotted with 8 cores

AMD Radeon GPUs Get Major Boost, Up To 55%, In OpenGL Graphics Performance With Soon To Launch Windows 11 22H2 Driver

This is more so them fixing their broken drivers than Fine Wne. But better late than never.

Forza Motorsport demo was captured on PC not XSX as stated in the trailer

https://www.neogaf.com/threads/forza-motorsport-demo-was-captured-on-pc-not-xsx-as-stated-in-the-trailer.1637991/

I figured that Ray Tracing part looked a tad too good for Series X.

AVX-512 & RPCS3 ‘PlayStation 3 Emulator’ Do Wonders Together, 30% Performance Boost Over CPUs With AVX2

After going 14 days without an update, the likely Steam page for Final Fantasy 7 Remake has randomly been updated a day before the FF7 event

https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLeaksAndRumours/comments/vdbxro/after_going_14_days_without_an_update_the_likely/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Come on SE you cucks, release it

I'd love for it to be true, but the headline is exagerating the situation, unlike the Tom's Hardware article they base this piece on: "Below MSRP and Only Getting Cheaper: The GPU Deluge Begins".

Retail prices have fallen, yes, but only a 2%. Where prices have fallen more is in the used market, where miners are trying to get rid of their parts before it's too late and they've dropped 10% in the last two weeks.

But yeah, miners, stores and AIBs will want to get rid of their stock before the new cards come so, this is just the beginning.

And this happens when Intel is getting rid of it.

By the way, PCGamer has an interesting article, about one thing we all knew from the start:
