The popularity of Baldur’s Gate gave rise to a number of CRPGs in its heyday, with a bunch of modern titles also — knowingly or otherwise — taking inspiration from this series to make their world feel more reactive and important for the player. So, any gamer who wishes to relive the golden age of role-playing would definitely be interested in the following titles, all of which have replicated the formula of Baldur’s Gate (or, at least, some aspects of it) to great success....

• Police have confirmed that at least 10 people have been killed and at least 30 have been injured. • Police announced at a press conference that there was one person in custody and that they have “ruled out” reports of multiple shooters, but with the caveat that this assessment could change as the investigation continues. • Reports of gunfire occurred at a Walmart near the Cielo Vista Mall. Some media reports have indicated that other gunfire was heard at the mall itself, though the El Paso police have not confirmed it....

Now, as if the lawsuit and the public outcry following it weren’t enough for Blizzard to deal with, the company’s investors have decided to add fuel to the fire. Said investors have decided to file a class-action lawsuit against Blizzard, employing Rosen Law Firm to speak on their behalf, the same company that sued CD Projekt Red over the disastrous launch of Cyberpunk. And considering the current state of affairs Blizzard finds itself dealing with, the lawsuit has a very good chance of succeeding....

The gaming giant has been engrossed in toxic culture allegations in recent times, particularly around how Activision Blizzard’s management handled sexual harassment and discrimination issues. Most notably, this includes CEO Bobby Kotick’s controversial conduct around the whole ordeal and who now stands to earn a massive $15 million payout following the Microsoft buyout. But while the company currently looks to complete the $69 billion Microsoft deal, reports of its toxic culture continue to draw more attention....

The patent in question is named “Systems and methods for creating and maintaining real money tournaments for video game” and it was originally published on April 20, 2017. The concept itself is surprisingly simple. It describes a player being invited to a match and evaluated to ensure it meets certain requirements for eligibility. If the player is both eligible for the price based on their account characteristics and wins the in-game match then they receive a pre-determined prize....

Judging by the comments on the trailer, all the negative reaction to Infinite Warfare is coming from the fact that the game takes place in a far-future setting, which includes environments in space and other planets. Today, Activision responded to those adverse reactions. On an earnings call Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg tried to be positive when asked about all the hate being thrown at the latest Call of Duty:...

Omooba’s casting in the play, which was to be produced by the Birmingham Hippodrome and the Curve Theatre in Leicester, was announced on March 14. The next day, Hamilton star Aaron Lee Lambert posted a screenshot of a Facebook post from Omooba, in which she wrote in part “I do not believe you can be born gay and i do not believe homosexuality is right, though the law of this land has made it legal doesn’t mean its right....

Acuna, who had hit leadoff homers in the last three games and homered in five straight overall, didn’t get a chance to extend the streak. Jose Urena plunked him on the left elbow with a fastball on his first pitch of the day, triggering a melee. Benches and bullpens for both teams emptied onto the field twice after the pitch. No punches were thrown. Urena and Braves manager Brian Snitker were ejected....

The gradual loss of kidney function is referred to as chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is typically caused by a long-term condition like diabetes or high blood pressure. In some people, CKD can lead to end-stage renal disease, in which the kidneys completely cease functioning. Because the treatment of AKI and CKD differ, it is important to identify the underlying cause based on a review of your symptoms and medical history and a panel of lab and imaging tests....

This will be All Elite Wrestling’s third event in the Revolution chronology, and so far it’s looking to be the best of the bunch. Lots of intriguing matches will be part of this show, but none will be bigger than the AEW World Championship match pitting former friends and Bullet Club stablemates Adam Cole and Hangman Adam Page against one another. This should be a great contest for a number of reasons....

Kinzinger and Greene represent rival factions within the Republican Party. While Greene is staunchly supportive of former President Donald Trump and continues to push baseless conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, Kinzinger has repeatedly slammed Trump and Republicans who remain loyal to the former president. The Illinois congressman has constantly pushed back against their false claims and criticized Trump and other Republicans for inflaming the GOP base with lies and conspiracies....

The Illinois congressman—one of just 10 members of his party who voted alongside Democrats when the House of Representatives first impeached Trump in January—acknowledged criticisms of the trial, but ultimately held the former president responsible for the legislative proceeding and actions that led to it. “To those who have argued that the impeachment was rushed or that impeachment will further divide us, we must remember that former President Trump put all of us—Congress and the American people—in this lose-lose situation,” said Kinzinger in a statement, which his office released shortly after Trump’s second impeachment trial concluded in the Senate....

On Monday, Stroh, 23, posted a video on TikTok that quickly went viral, in which the model and influencer claimed she had a year-long affair with the frontman of Maroon 5. She also shared screenshots of messages that she claimed were from Levine, including one in which he asked if he could name his third child after her.

But that’s all beside the point. What we’re focusing here is Adam Levine, the lead singer of Maroon 5, who went through several articles of clothing throughout his halftime performance. By the end of the show, he was without a shirt, exposing a shocking amount of body tattoos. Before we got to that point, however, Levine discarded several layers of apparel, which we will now rank.

WATCH: Depay scores from half-way line The 33-year-old Togo international had not found the net since February 2016 when he signed for the Turkish Super Lig club in January, but he opened his account within 55 minutes of making his first start against Konyaspor, scoring with a header from point-blank range. Basaksehir are second in the league table, one point behind leaders Besiktas, and if they win the title Adebayor could lift his third trophy at club level after being part of the Real Madrid side that won the Copa del Rey in 2011 and the Manchester City team that won the Community Shield in 2013....
