Minecraft Dungeons – Essential Tips And Tricks For Starting

Minecraft Dungeons is the latest adventure from Minecraft creator Mojang, and introduces a new spin on the classic Minecraft formula. Instead of tasking you with crafting structures from a variety of block types in first person, it asks you to roam a variety of dungeons in third-person view, defeating enemies along the way in order to reach the nefarious Arch-Illager’s castle and take him down once and for all.

Although Minecraft Dungeons is not the most difficult game, there are definitely some things you should take on board before booting it up–especially so if you’re a Minecraft fan who hasn’t got a lot of experience with dungeon-crawlers. Luckily, we’ve compiled a handy, spoiler-free guide for you to bring you up to speed while you’re waiting for Minecraft Dungeons to install.

In this guide, you’ll find the essential tips and tricks that we gleaned from our time playing the game. Once you think you’ve got a handle on the basics, stay tuned for more guides focussed on things like how the enchantment system works in Minecraft Dungeons.

Mafia 3: Definitive Edition Files Reveal A Berlin Map From A Cancelled Project

Mafia III: Definitive Edition, the newly released version of Mafia III that includes all of the game’s DLC, seems to include a new asset within it. Files have been discovered within the game that show off a map of Berlin, and although it’s missing textures, the full town map seems to be in there.

On YouTube, Sliderv2 has posted a video (as seen on Resetera) exploring the map as Mafia III protagonist Lincoln Clay, showing it from both the air and ground. While the video does not explain how the map was accessed, it lines up with earlier reports about a cancelled game by developer Hanger 13.

A 2018 report on Kotaku about the developer outlined their plans for a new game, Rhapsody, which would be an 80s-set spy game that saw you playing a Russian Jew out for revenge for the murder of their parents.

Indiana Jones 5 Update: Writing Has Only “Just Started”

Indiana Jones 5 hit a snag recently when director Steven Spielberg–who directed every previous Indiana Jones film–announced he was leaving the project. The movie is still happening, and Lucasfilm has brought on Logan and Walk the Line director James Mangold. Producer Frank Marshall has provided an update on how the movie is coming along, and it’s very early days.

Marshall told Collider that the writing process for Indiana Jones 5 only “just started.” He didn’t share any details on the script, but the last we heard, Jurassic Park writer David Koepp was attached as the screenwriter. Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has confirmed that Indiana Jones 5 will be a “continuation” of the series instead of a reboot, but no story details are confirmed yet.

Indiana Jones 5–or whatever Lucasfilm decides to call the movie–is scheduled to be released in theatres in 2022. Marshall told Collider that the COVID-19 crisis is likely to impact how the movie is made. He said he expects you won’t see “big crowd scenes” in film for some time. Additionally, the craft services department–which delivers food to cast and crew–will likely be eliminated, he said.

Skyrim Grandma, The World’s Oldest Streamer, Is Cutting Back Her Schedule

Shirley Curry, also known to the internet as Skyrim Grandma, announced earlier this month that she would be cutting back on her famous streams of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim because of comments that she’s received on her videos. After gaining an enthusiastic following in the streaming community for her passion for the game and becoming a world record holder as the world’s oldest professional streamer, she’s now taking a break from the activity.

Curry, who may be featured as an NPC in future Skyrim games, has been an avid player of the title since 2007 according to this article from Senior Planet. While her YouTube channel, active since 2011, was originally just for Curry to interact with other fans of Elder Scrolls V, she began to stream herself playing the game in 2015. However, she became famous almost overnight in late 2015 when she was featured on Reddit, and it’s been stardom ever since.

Being a popular streamer isn’t just a walk in the park, though. With some streamers being subjected to so much visibility and scrutiny to rival that of Hollywood celebrities, being in the public eye as a content creator can be exhausting.
