<![CDATA[Destiny 2's The Final Shape Raid is in a Rough Spot in One Key Area]]> Destiny 2 is still gripped by its Lightfall era, with two seasons left to go before The Final Shape expansion drops, and Season of the Deep being a few weeks away from the finish line. Even though Season of the Deep's lore fixed most of what was wrong with the Lightfall expansion, Season 22 will likely equally important in many ways, as Bungie has already teased that it will revolve around resurrecting Savathun and working with her. Season 22 will also entail the return of another Raid from the franchise's past, and while that is going to be a challenge for Bungie in many ways, the ultimate test is the one that The Final Shape's Raid will have to endure.

<![CDATA[Immortals of Aveum: What is a Triarch Magnus, Explained]]> Immortals of Aveum is one of August 2023's most anticipated titles. Immortals of Aveum features first-person, magic-based combat, and a narrative that CEO and game director of Ascendant Studios, Bret Robbins, describes as a mixture of Doom, BioShock, and God of War. Players will take on the role of Jak, a battlemage fighting in humanity's conflict over the control of Aveum's magic. However, Jak is unlike other battle mages, as he boasts the title of Triarch Magnus. Within the world of Aveum, magic is divided into colors, and individuals are given titles based on the number of colors that they can access. As a Triarch Magnus, Jak is the rarest breed of magic wielder, and this depth of ability sees both him and the player forced into the title's conflict against their will.

However, fans' reception has changed massively since then, and one of the main culprits is Diablo 4's first season, which not only undermined some of the core conceits that made fans happy, but also introduced little incentive to play seasonal characters instead of Eternal Realm ones. The patch did a lot of damage to the game's reputation and player morale, but one of the worst outcomes was that a key launch feature was gutted.
