How to deal with Backwater Gunkfish in Lethal Company

Image
The monsters of Lethal Company are certainly getting stranger, and the latest addition, the Backwater Gunkfish, proves just that. This aquatic little guy has found himself on dry land and wants nothing to do with humans. Here is how to deal with the Backwater Gunkfish in Lethal Company v80 . Table of contents Where to find the Backwater Gunkfish in Lethal Company Backwater Gunkfish behavior Solutions when dealing with Backwater Gunkfish in Lethal Company Where to find the Backwater Gunkfish in Lethal Company Screenshot by Destructoid The Backwater Gunkfish commonly appears on forest moons (Adamance, March, and Vow). It lives exclusively inside the facilities and is not limited to one interior, but I have found it most commonly in the Factory and Mineshaft. I have run across a Backwater Gunkfish as often as the Hoarding Bugs. The Gunkfish has a Sting Ray-like appearance with a green and yellow color against its scales and gills. Out of all the v80 monsters, the Gunkfis...

Turns out I’m a better typist than most at the New York Times, and it’s probably thanks to video games

Image
No matter what you think of the coverage, you have to tip your cap to journalists working at the largest publications in the world. At the very least, their secondary skills have to be top-notch. From quick research to fast typing, to the patience of a saint needed to conduct a phone interview, or just masters of multitasking—there's no way they are just like the rest of us, right? Then I read an article about the typing skills of the average New York Times journo earlier this week, and my world was rocked. They are slower than you'd think "The average speed among the participating Times journalists was about 80 words per minute — double the average typing speed in the United States, according to the American Society of Administrative Professionals," reads the key insight of the article. Okay, very funny, give me the actual number. Wait, what, really? I'm not even sure where to start. 40 WPM being the average in the US was already a shocking insight to me...

Dataminers suggest Xbox is about to launch a neutered Game Pass tier with only first-party games

Image
Though Xbox was no stranger to breaking Game Pass into as many tiers as possible prior to Asha Sharma's ascension as chief executive, it would appear that the company under her direction wants to introduce yet another tier, one that only contains older first-party Microsoft titles. As per Eurogamer ( via Windows Central ), datamining has shown that Xbox could be preparing to release an additional Game Pass tier, one that is far removed from all the others currently on offer. It would only give you access to first-party Microsoft games, not including day-one releases, but older ones whose prime selling points have passed. According to dataminer redphx , who discovered this new Game Pass tier codenamed "TRION," it would include games such as Doom: Eternal , Dishonored 2 , Hellblade (the first one), State of Decay 2 , among others, but would also let you play live-service titles like Elder Scrolls Online as part of the package. https://twitter.com/redphx/status/2037...

Kingdom Come Deliverance translator allegedly fired amid AI push to ‘save finances’: ‘My position at the company would become obsolete in favour of using AI for all translations’

Image
AI is slowly crawling over the gaming industry, aiming first at those areas of game development that are "easiest" to replace, or rather, those where AI can produce results that would be "good enough" to a corporate suit and much cheaper than hiring an actual human to perform heavily contextualized work. And while I expected this to happen sooner rather than later, I never thought I'd see studios that have built up a lot of goodwill and reputation in the industry be the first ones to jump on this horrible wagon. In a Reddit post verified by moderators, a former employee of Warhorse Studios, the developers of the Kingdom Come: Deliverance games, alleged they were made "obsolete" in their role as a translator as the company aims to replace all localization work with artificial intelligence. "Yesterday, March 27th, 2026, with no forewarning, I was invited to a meeting and promptly told that, in an effort to 'make the company more effective...
