The best low-profile TKL keyboard now has a mercifully more affordable cousin

Now, though, theres an alternative: the new Logitech G515 Lightspeed TKL. Ive been using it. Almost immediately, you tell its a more pared-back keyboard proposition. Almost as importantly, the G515 isnt actually a straight downgrade. The G515 is hardly lacking for features, either. Except it wasnt, thus freeing up a precious USB port. Battery life is decent as well. But then its a tough, hard-wearing plastic, without a hint of creaking or flex....

Tomoe is back in the free demo for Sekiro-like indie Bloodless

Not that one That was…slightly cheeky of me. The Tomoe you play in parry-fulactionadventureBloodlessis not the same Tomoe that was conspicuously absent from undeniable influenceSekiro. Theymightbe based on thesame historical figure, but thats simply Sek-ulation. Bloodless is pleasingly simple. Space to parry-dash is your only move, omnidirectional. Parry an opponent to defeat them. Take three hits and youre toast, but you get three gulps of tea to restore one hit each....

Long Dark dev criticises Manor Lords for lack of updates, Hooded Horse CEO replies that not every game needs to be "some live-service boom or bust"

It launched with a pretty strong base game but without much content, van Lierop writes. Manor Lords has none of those things. So once you played 5-10 rounds of the game, there’s nothing more to do. This is not great for an RTS/city-builder. It’s really hard to get people’s attention back once you’ve lost it. Thats not how Tim Bender, CEO of Manor Lords publisher Hooded Horse, sees the situation....
