In the game, you will lead the people of the Tribe of the Dawn and venture into forbidden lands in a Slavic lore-rich, dark fantasy strategy campaign.

After bingeing the Netflix show Arcane and getting hooked on the world of League Of Legends, I was disappointed to find there weren’t too many single-player games for those who aren’t the MOBA-type of keyboard mashers. The top-down action RPG The Mageseeker: A League Of Legends Story is looking to fix that, though, letting you play as the ex-convict and buff mage Sylas while he’s busy running a revolution. It comes from the developers behind the Zelda-like shop roguelite Moonlighter, and it’s out now.
Diablo 4 Devs Have “No Plans” For Key Map Feature, And Fans Are Divided On It
Everyone has their own opinions on what constitutes a good video game map, and Diablo fans are no exception. Now, some players are expressing divided opinions after franchise general manager Rod Fergusson said that there are “no plans” for including an overlay map in Diablo 4.
No plans at the moment.

Overlay maps usually allow players to move while looking at the map. They’re a staple of games with large areas to explore, especially MMORPGs. Though Diablo 4 does include a minimap which will help you see where you’re going, it seems that Blizzard wants your eyes on the action rather than peeled to a map. Some fans applauded the change, though others are stung by the planned omission. Several proponents of the feature note that Diablo 2 is the game that popularized overlay maps in the genre to begin with.
“I’m not a fan [of overlay maps],” said one Reddit user. “I understand the purpose so that people are forced to look at the game, but I found myself just constantly pulling up the big map, which felt cumbersome. The choice takes away from the enjoyment of the game.”
