You Don't Have To Like Dead By Daylight To Enjoy This Cinematic Spin-Off, But It Helps

The Casting of Frank Stone is an odd name for a horror game. It almost implies we ought to know who Frank Stone is, or why his “casting” (whatever that means in this context) is notable. But after playing the game’s prologue, I still feel out of the loop. Supermassive, famous for cinematic horror games such as Until Dawn, The Quarry, and The Dark Pictures Anthology, has been handed the reins to Behaviour Interactive’s Dead By Daylight (DBD) franchise for a cinematic spin-off that plays much like its other popular games.That’s an exciting prospect in itself. Supermassive’s playable horror movies routinely make for terrific party games. But my prevailing impression after an hour with the game is that DBD fans will get more out of this than those who come in without knowing the PvP horror gam…

A major recognizable element is Jack Black as Claptrap, the game’s robotic guide, and your character’s sidekick. The main observation seems to be the comparison between that and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, which was a reinvention of the team from the comics.

Disney Defends Second Price Hike In Past 12 Months For Disney+

For the second time in the past 12 months, Disney is raising prices for its streaming services, including Disney+. CEO Bob Iger discussed this on the company’s earnings call, saying Disney actually has more pricing leverage–that is, the ability to raise prices–than before thanks to the appeal of the platform as he sees it.”Every time we’ve taken a price increase, we’ve had only modest churn from that. Nothing that we would consider significant,” he said. A “churn” rate refers to losses from people leaving a given service.Iger said the introduction of new features to Disney+ like the upcoming ESPN tile and continuous playlists, along with high-profile movies coming to the platform, gives Disney the ability to raise prices without issue.”The pricing leverage we have is actually in…
