Which Genshin Impact Character Shares Your Birthday In March

Genshin Impact is a dynamic RPG with party members that feel like real people, not NPCs giving automatic responses. One way these characters stay alive in the mind of the player is by having individual birthdays each month, where they have special letters and dishes they send to the traveler. Since players can’t celebrate their birthdays, or their friends’ birthdays, while quarantine continues across the world, having a little celebration in Genshin Impact is a welcome relief....

Why Rustler Is Being Compared To Grand Theft Auto

It’s often said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Grand Theft Auto has learned this after setting all kinds of industry standards for lawless, chaotic, and irreverent action-adventure games. Many other have imitated it over the years, and some have even found ways to parody it.

Even with the knowledge that horror franchises are self-perpetuating machines, however, there’s one horror imprint whose continued existence is rather surprising....
