Posts promising free access to TradingView Premium have been circulating across Reddit trading and crypto communities for several months. Many of the accounts behind them carry real karma, posting history, and activity patterns that read as legitimate. Comment threads fill quickly with positive responses; critical posts get buried or removed. Scams that advertise themselves are easy to catch. This one doesn’t.
Reports flagged in the r/TradingView community describe posts appearing specifically in subreddits like r/BestTrades, offering no-subscription, no-credit-card access to TradingView’s paid tier. At every stage, the offer is built to pass visual inspection. Just a link, a few steps to follow.
Those steps don’t deliver TradingView. They deliver an infostealer built to pull credentials, session cookies, and crypto wallet data off the device without making a sound. Avast One Free Antivirus is designed to flag these downloads before they execute, which matters precisely because a threat this carefully assembled won’t set off obvious alarms.
The lure is well chosen. TradingView Premium covers advanced charting, real-time data, and multi-screen setups. Expensive enough that free access sounds worth a click. The posts target Reddit’s crypto and trading communities, where the offer fits the audience.
Accounts posting these don’t look newly created. Months or years of Reddit history, karma, activity that reads as genuine. Positive comments land quickly under each post; warnings from real users tend to get buried. Multiple people have flagged this pattern in r/TradingView specifically.
From there, the link takes users off Reddit to a page designed to look like a standard software download. Files are usually compressed, password-protected, or packaged with an instruction that should stop the process immediately: disable your antivirus before installing.
No legitimate software asks for that.
What actually gets installed depends on the device. On Windows, the payload is Vidar. On Mac, AMOS. Both run silently and are built to collect:
Saved credentials from your browser
Session cookies (which hand attackers access to logged-in accounts, no password needed)
Cryptocurrency wallet data
Personal files and system information
Most people don’t realize anything happened until an account gets accessed or funds go missing. By then it’s damage control.
The Red Flags Are There, If You Know Where to Look
A well-assembled scam still leaves tells at almost every step.
Start with the offer. TradingView has paid plans. Someone on Reddit distributing premium access through an external download warrants skepticism first, not curiosity about how to grab it.
Download instructions are usually the clearest signal. Real software doesn’t come with a checklist of security workarounds. Password-protected archives, a prompt to disable your antivirus, a multi-step setup that feels more complicated than it should: that friction is there to move malware past your defenses, not because the software requires it.
Watch how the thread behaves. Critical comments disappearing while positive responses pile up in uniform-sounding language: that’s social engineering, not organic discussion.
Urgency is a tell too. Phrases like “grab this before it gets taken down” or “available for a limited time” exist to push you past the part of your brain that would otherwise pump the brakes.
What Actually Keeps You Safe Here
A few habits take most of the risk off the table:
Download software from its official source.TradingView’s website is tradingview.com. A Reddit post isn’t a distribution channel.
Any cracked or “free” version of paid software should be treated as malware until proven otherwise. The TradingView pitch is just the current vehicle; compressed files with install instructions are a standard delivery method for exactly this kind of threat.
Don’t disable your security software to install something. An installer that asks you to do that is the threat. The same logic applies to password-protected archives and setup steps designed to bypass your defenses.
Take thirty seconds before clicking. Checking the URL, searching for recent reports, or looking at an account’s posting history is usually enough to see through this. These campaigns count on you moving fast.
An automated layer adds backup when manual checks miss something. Avast One Free Antivirus is built to flag suspicious downloads, dangerous links, and fraudulent pages like those used in this campaign.
Avast One Free Antivirus: What It Does in a Situation Like This
Scams like this keep working because they’re built to pass visual inspection. Accounts look real. Files look like software. Pages look like download pages. Avast One Free Antivirus works at a different layer, flagging potentially suspicious activity before you have to make a judgment call. Coverage includes:
Real-time malware protection catches viruses, trojans, and infostealers before they execute. No waiting to notice something’s wrong.
Web Guard and scam detection flags suspicious links and downloads before you click, including disguised installers like those used in this campaign.
Hack Alert and BreachGuard monitors known data breach databases and alerts you when your credentials or personal data appear in them.
On public or unsecured Wi-Fi, Network Inspector helps you connect more safely without manual configuration.
Coverage across Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, managed from a single dashboard.
No security tool catches everything. But one running automatically in the background stops a lot of these attempts before you ever have to make a call. If you want that protection without adding complexity to your setup, download Avast One Free Antivirus and have it running in minutes.
If you’ve been generating images with AI tools for any amount of time, you’ve probably noticed the pattern: everything starts to look the same. The same compositions, the same color palettes, the same visual language. Generative AI has made image creation accessible to anyone with an internet connection, and that accessibility has produced a flood of content with almost no personality. Impressive at first glance, increasingly generic once you’ve seen it a few dozen times.
Adobe has taken a different approach with Adobe Firefly, its generative AI model. One of its newest features, Custom Models, lets you train an AI model using your own images, so what it generates actually reflects your visual identity. If you want to know how it works, here’s what you need.
Custom Models in Adobe Firefly: What They Are and How They Work
Custom models are AI models trained on your own images. Instead of generating content from Adobe’s general dataset, Firefly learns from the patterns in your work: your color palettes, your visual style, the kind of compositions you typically use.
The difference in output compared to a generic model is significant. When the model is trained on your content, the images it generates look like yours. And since Firefly’s underlying technology is used throughout, everything you create is commercially safe.
If you’re working in an organization, you can share and manage custom models across your entire team. That means faster workflows and visual consistency from the start, instead of everyone generating in different directions.
How to Create Your Own Custom Model in Adobe Firefly
On the Adobe Firefly main page, you’ll find a list of sections in the left sidebar. Click Custom models to get started.
First, you’ll choose a training method. There are three options: photos, illustrations, and characters. Photos is the right pick if you want the model to generate realistic, detailed imagery. Illustrations and characters are more focused on stylized and artistic output.
Once you select a category, you’ll see the requirements for best model performance. You’ll need to upload between 10 and 30 images, each with at least 1024 x 1024 pixel resolution and a consistent aspect ratio. The images should share a distinctive visual style and include enough open space for product compositions. Make sure every image is the best quality you have.
Select Start adding images and upload your files. Firefly will analyze each one. When it’s done, every file gets an automatic description based on what appears in the image. On the right, you’ll see tags you can use later when generating new images.
You’ll also see a Model Score, where Adobe rates the quality of the data you’ve uploaded. Keep in mind it’s a guide only and still in beta.
When you’re ready, click Train and grant Adobe permission to use your images to build the model. You’ll receive an email from Adobe when it’s done. You can track the training process from Model Inventory by selecting your project.
Training a custom model currently costs 500 credits. In Adobe, credits are the currency for advanced generative AI features. Depending on your subscription plan, you get a set number of credits per month. If you run out, you can purchase more through this link.
Is My Content Safe Inside Firefly?
If you’re wondering whether it’s safe to upload personal or company material to Firefly to build custom models, the short answer is yes.
Adobe confirms they don’t use your data to train Firefly’s commercial models, the ones available to the general public. You also get control tools to manage who can view the training data and use the models.
You can upload your material without concern. Content Credentials are added to every generated asset, showing how the image was created, which tools were used, and whether generative AI was involved. Adobe’s goal is that anyone can identify whether something was AI-generated or not.
Have you ever sat there and sweated over whether the ‘Final’ file in your Drive is actually final (or just plainly mislabeled by a past, overly optimistic self). Maybe you’ve had issues tracking clients across varying deadlines, chat threads, emails, My Drive dumps, and local machine mess. Sometimes work can move quicker than your memory can work.
If only it were as simple as having “too many files.” Nice, but that’s not even close. The real issue is almost always lost context. And that’s where a “Second Brain” can help.
A second brain is an external way of storing working knowledge, so it can be found, trusted, reused, and handed over. Google itself describes Google Drive as an “AI-powered cloud storage for storing, sharing, and collaborating on files.” The value emerges when teams use Drive for more than storage and treat it as a way that creates a visible, trusted foundation to keep client context, project evidence, working drafts, approvals, contracts, sign offs, and final deliverables.
Why Missing Context Quietly Breaks Things
When we’re in Google Drive, it’s not uncommon to pile up a large body of work that includes things like briefs, drafts, notes, research, approvals, and more. All of this piles up as a project moves along during our day-to-day work. The second that trail breaks, everyone starts relying on memory. And memory is a terrible filing system, even when it sounds very sure of itself.
There are warning signs, such as if you have client feedback in five different places, someone still editing approved documents, and a deck that cites research that nobody can locate.
The good news is that Google Drive is a usable way to start getting project history under control in a way that’s surfaceable and protected. Most teams already use Drive; they’ve just never designed it to carry the weight of professional knowledge.
Let’s walk through how to turn your Drive into a second brain.
1. Start With Shared Drives, Not Personal Folders
In a professional context, if a second brain depends on private or personal My Drive folders, then it loses its real value. My Drive works well for personal drafts and individual workspace, but it’s not ideal for client assets and material that a business needs to keep after someone changes role, leaves, or goes on holiday at precisely the wrong time.
Shared Drives are a better backbone for client and project work. Google defines Shared Drives as a way for teams to “Store, search, and access files with a team” rather than with any one individual. When someone leaves, the files stay in the same place with the right permissions. Google recommends Shared Drives for project plans and meeting notes.
Organize Shared Drives using three ownership levels:
Client-focused Shared Drives include contracts, brand guidelines, client notes and deliverables.
Project-focused Shared Drives with defined timelines, files, and review cycles.
Internal operations for playbooks, guidelines, templates and processes to make the work easier and more consistent.
This isn’t to say that you necessarily need to turn everything into a shared drive. The point is to put long-term work where it can survive handovers and where access can be managed by their role, project or team.
There’s a simple test on when something needs to go into a shared drive. Ask yourself: “Can work for this client, project or operation function without this file?” If the answer is no, then it should be going into a shared drive.
2. Map Drive Structure to the Way Client Projects Actually Move
We set up the Shared Drives in the first step; now we’ve got to organise the structure within those drives.
One of the first things you might do when trying to keep things organized is create lots of neatly defined folders. While that approach makes sense on paper, in practice it can make things worse. With Google Drive you can reach as deep as 100 folders with up to 400,000 items, but clearly that doesn’t mean you should.
The ideal Drive leads you through files via a workflow. The goal isn’t moving files into more granular subfolders, but rather showing a clear progression and separation without cluttering navigation.
It is better to use broad categories, meaningful names, and shallow structures that are easy to navigate and retrieve.
Use clear names for clients or projects, states, and access levels.
Keep drafts, reviews, and approval folders broad enough that people can make decisions.
Use consistent date and status formats: “YY/MM/DD” or “Draft/Final/Approved”.
Use Google Drive Labels Feature
The labels feature helps you avoid falling into the trap of “detailed subfolder” land. With Google Drive labels you can add metadata like Client, Project, State or Sensitivity. This helps with search, access, and organization without creating more folders or duplication with shortcuts or tags.
Use Google Drive Shortcuts
Shortcuts are also helpful when files move into different contexts, giving you a second pathway to the same file (without creating duplicates or having to move it). If someone goes looking for it they’ll still be able to locate it and you won’t end up with a duplicate file getting updated, which might lead to someone using an outdated copy.
It’s not about making a prettier folder structure. It’s about making working material, proof, and recordkeeping meaningful enough that they don’t lose real work behind them.
3. Approvals and Statutory Files
“Final” shouldn’t be a mood. It’s an operational status. This is where many Drive systems start to creak. If a client approves a campaign concept, but the team keeps editing the wrong deck, you’ve got a problem.
Most discontentment, from the internal team to consultants to clients, comes from people not surfacing things they expect upgraded or changed, or having something changed that should not have been.
A good second brain supports separating working files from approved files. Aim for clarified status that reduces ambiguity, unnecessary rework, and protects what really matters to the business.
Use Drive Approvals and eSignature to Prevent Unnecessary Rework
Drive supports this with native functionality including approvals. For eligible work and school accounts, users can send files through a formal approval process, track status, and lock files after reviews. This can include approval history for Sheets, Docs, and Slides, and approvals across other Drive file types.
For signed documents, users can request eSignature through Docs and Drive, including certain PDFs in supported editions.
You don’t need to use formal approvals for every minor internal note or document. That would be a fantastic way to annoy everyone. You can, however, use them where approval status matters: client-facing deliverables, large changes in project direction, or key business strategic recommendations.
The benefit may not feel immediate, but you’ll notice eventually when the accidental casual editing is avoided and there are no longer any discussions over “Which one was the done one?”. You have reliable references for renewals, audits, case studies, training, and future pitches.
4. Include Access Control as Part of the Structure
A professional second brain isn’t about keeping everything private but it should be able to set boundaries based on “Who should see what and for how long?”.
You don’t want contractors to retain access indefinitely and you don’t want clients to see your internal documents.
Google Drive lets you build access control into your Drive architecture. You can do this by role, such as manager, content manager, contributor, commenter, and viewer.
One of the most effective ways of doing this is by managing shared drive membership with groups rather than adding people one by one. Groups make access easier to scale, update, and audit when teams change. That makes it especially useful for agencies, consulting firms, and broader organizations in a hybrid or fully remote world.
Some practical boundaries you could set up include:
Internal vs client: Internal auditing and research documents, legal, and commercial material are kept out of client-facing areas.
Role-based access: Who “needs” to access what? Based on a meaningful professional reason.
Remove external access: External partners and clients ideally have their permissions removed after a project ends.
Drive can also scale this to enterprise with Data Loss Prevention (DLP). There are DLP features that help audit, restrict, and prevent external sharing of sensitive rules-based information. Google Vault retention rules can save and delete Workspace data for specific compliance and regulatory needs. Audit logs, trust rules, and other advanced security controls can support wider-scale implementation.
The main thing to remember is that Google Drive is built for collaboration with boundaries. Use it like a professional archive that’s visible enough for collaboration but closed enough for responsibility.
5. Turn Closed Projects Into Durable History
A finished project is not necessarily “done.” It is a memory layer that can tell you how decisions happened, what got delivered, what was approved, and what is reusable.
A closeout step helps when a project goes into the archive, including final/exported files, approvals, notes, contracts, research, and deliverables. Then name and use the label feature to mark them by context, close date, and project. Remove duplicates and any docs that don’t provide valuable context for future projects.
Drive search, labels, Shared Drives, shortcuts, and Gemini all work better when the archive has strong context left behind in it.
6. Tie It All Together With Gemini
AI makes the second-brain idea more practical and in some senses more literal if the vault has enough structure underneath it.
Gemini in Drive can help turn your stored work into something you can query. It can summarize long files, summarize folders, gather information across several files and help retrieve quick facts without forcing you to open every document by hand.
Summaries and context: Rapid summaries of contract details, research findings, proposal notes, etc., reduce the time needed to manually scan archives.
Document synthesis: Combined facts, feedback, and themes across different files, removing the burden of reconstructing information in fragmented sources.
Quick facts/questions: It helps when looking for things like a client’s main requirements, feedback being addressed, or key findings from surveys or exposure work.
File-level, folder-level and multi-file prompts: Quick summary or short-form storyline of multi-document or broad-scope history.
Customizable and scalable: Questions, tone, and context can be mini-engineered to get a variable outcome and references.
One word of advice though: Gemini shouldn’t replace human judgment. Use summaries as pre-content before supplementing/rationalizing from the files themselves. Ask Gemini to point you to where it sourced the information and check. Also, Gemini won’t use any private information to train the public, so your data will always remain safe.
Whether you have access to Gemini features can depend on several things, such as Workspace plan, admin settings, primary language, file type, and video accurately captions based on language. Some newer AI features in Drive have also been rolled out at various intervals regionally.
None of this replaces a well-structured system, but if you really can’t find a file, or even a specific part within a file, it can surface, reference and condense genuinely useful stuff faster.
Model the System: Drive as Foundation, Not Storage
A functional professional memory system doesn’t need to be uniform, pristine, or completely automated. What really matters is that it reflects the structure of the business, the flow of work, access, approval, and the weak spots where most projects are likely to break down.
A practical Drive memory structure can look like this:
Shared Drives structured by durable pattern, not individual.
Separate active, working, review, approval, and archive states (broadly, not deeply).
Use metadata: labels, tags, and shortcuts to create flexibility without nesting.
Use approvals and eSignatures for high-value status/proof, not everything.
Use groups and permissions, especially when scaling.
Use Gemini for context, memory, and operational efficiency. Don’t expect it to fill in the gaps for a poor system.
The value of using Google Drive is more subtle than some other options: A cleaner pace. Smoother projects. A little less rework. More controlled client-facing activity. Stronger reuse. A little less heroism is required from the person who “knows where everything is.”
You don’t need to create a second brain for the business to function. Even a slightly more structured system that is visible enough, thoughtful enough, and referenceable by the people who need to use it is a win.
All companies, absolutely all of them, around the world, are “focusing on AI.” It doesn’t even matter if AI is going to do any good, it’s just to “not fall behind.” And the result, while we wait for all companies to raise prices and it becomes absurd to maintain services, is anything but futuristic. It is, as many of us expected, the shoddiest version of the future that cinema promised us for years, with robots tasked with being our psychologists and consulting what we used to look up on Google.

All companies, absolutely all of them, around the world, are “focusing onAI“. It doesn’t even matter if AI is going to do any good, it’s just about “not being left behind”. And the result, while we wait for all companies to raise prices and it becomes absurd to maintain services, is anything but futuristic. It is, as many of us expected, the shoddiest version of the future that cinema promised us for years, with robots tasked with being our psychologists and consulting what we used to look up on Google.
Well, AI is fine
The big tech companies, which have spent an absolute fortune to keep up, are now announcing that from now on AI will be the center of all their hopes. All except one, which has realized that with this trend it will soon become absolutely useless: YouTube. Yes, to avoid misinformation, it will now require that videos made by artificial intelligence be highlighted. I didn’t see this coming, especially considering the initial turn it took, rowing completely in its favor.
And what are they going to do with the AI-generated videos so that you know they are? Well, YouTube itself responds: “The goal is to find the context immediately. If it looks real but is made with AI, viewers will know right away.” In other words: there will be a notice at the beginning of the video and not, as until now, in the long description. Note that this will not affect recommendations… nor earning money from what a machine has created. Step by step.
In 1986, Takeshi Kitano brought to light one of his craziest projects (and that’s saying something): a contest filled with ridiculous challenges, hits, crashes, and gadgets titled Takeshi’s Castle, although in Spain we know it better as -oh- Humor Amarillo. The concept of “physical challenges, one after another” gained momentum and crystallized into another show called Sasuke, which continues to air to this day and gave rise to the famous American Ninja Warrior. And that’s where we stop. The Gazelle Thompson, at the American Ninja Warrior Olympics has been airing on NBC since 2009, and is a much more […]
In 1986, Takeshi Kitano brought to light one of his craziest projects (and that’s saying something): a contest filled with wacky challenges, hits, tumbles, and gadgets titled Takeshi’s Castle, although in Spain we know it better as -oh- Humor Amarillo.
The concept of “physical challenges, one after another” gained momentum and crystallized into another show called Sasuke, which continues to air to this day and gave rise to the famous American Ninja Warrior. And that’s where we stop.
Thompson’s Gazelle, to the Olympics
American Ninja Warrior has been airing on NBC since 2009, and it is a much more serious and physically demanding version than the Japanese shows. So much so that its winner takes home a million dollars every year.
Tokyo Broadcasting System, the producers of Sasuke, have reached an agreement with the international pentathlon association to introduce this obstacle course as part of the discipline. In the upcoming Games of 2028 in Los Angeles, equestrian jumps will officially be replaced by a Ninja Warrior-style obstacle course: it may not be a federated sport, but it is certainly more spectacular.
The pentathlon has been in the Olympics since 1912, and before this change, it also included fencing, swimming, and laser run, a combination of running and shooting with a laser pistol. Laser pistol, Ninja Warrior… We have finally achieved it: we have reached the purest sports dystopia. We will have to enjoy it.
Square Enix has held a special stream to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the beloved JRPG franchise Dragon Quest.

Square Enix has held a special stream to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the beloved JRPG franchise Dragon Quest. In it, Yosuke Saito, the game’s producer, Yuji Horii, the creator of the saga, presented the new installment of the franchise: Dragon Quest XII. With a particularity. They announced that they had to reboot the project and that it will now be called Dragon Quest XII: Beyond Dreams.
A project full of problems
Dragon Quest XII was technically already announced. Five years ago it was presented under the name Dragon Quest XII: The Flames of Fate with a, literally, flaming logo, and no further information. Now, due to a series of problems that have led them to restart the project, it returns in this new incarnation.
Although the information we have is still very scarce, we have been left with a small conceptual teaser trailer of the game that shows us the protagonists. Including the designs by Akira Toriyama, who passed away in 2024, and whose last works created during his lifetime had technically already been shown, both for video games and for manga. Horii has stated that he will clarify how this is possible in the future, emphasizing that the music is by Koichi Sugiyama, the composer since the first installment of the saga, who passed away in 2021.
Without a release date or confirmed platforms, it seems we will still have to wait a long time to see the new installment of Dragon Quest. At the same event, they also announced Dragon Quest Monsters: The Withered World, a new installment of the Dragon Quest subfranchise —a mix of Dragon Quest and Pokémon—, with nothing more than a logo and stating that it will be coming soon to Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Backrooms premieres this Friday in the United States, and it is already one of the most anticipated horror movies of the year. Partly because it is based on a YouTube phenomenon, partly because it looks frankly great, and partly because its director, Kane Parsons, turned 20 during filming. We are not exactly overflowing with new talent, and it should be a reason for joy that a talented kid prefers to make movies instead of TikToks, but of course, the world has not wanted to accept it so easily. Guaranteed bad vibes. Rumors say that Parsons, who created an entire mythology about the […]
Backrooms premieres this Friday in the United States, and it is already one of the most anticipated horror films of the year. Partly because it is based on a YouTube phenomenon, partly because it looks frankly amazing, and partly because its director, Kane Parsons, turned 20 during the filming.
We are not exactly overflowing with new talent, and it should be a cause for joy that a talented young person prefers to make films rather than TikToks, but of course, the world has not wanted to accept it so easily.
“Mmmmmh, with all due respect, I don’t remember seeing you on set. When I was there, Kane had it under control 100%. More than many directors who are three times his age“. Apparently, the person claiming that Parsons did not direct the film was an “expert” who knew that no executive would give 10 million to a 20-year-old, as if A24 and Paramount were the same thing.
In the same vein, Sophy Romvari, a film director, has stated that “Jealousy drives many of these discourses about age and success. I can confidently say that I am very happy to have made my first film at 34 and not at 20, I am much better now”. In any case, whether haters like it or not, Backrooms seems set to premiere in a big way, surpassing The Mandalorian and Grogu at the box office and delivering one of the big surprises of the year. Something is changing in Hollywood, fortunately.
If the first Enola Holmes movie is from 2020 and they seem to be going three years per sequel, the saga of Sherlock’s young sister could end in 2047, when Millie Bobby Brown will be 43 years old. Come on, they better hurry up at Netflix if they intend to adapt the entire saga written by Nancy Springer, because they have a lot of material to cover. For now, Enola Holmes 3 starts with a real bombshell: the wedding of its protagonist! A matchmaking mystery This is how the trailer for this third part begins, following the previous one: Enola is in love with Tewkesbury, but in […]
If the first movie of Enola Holmes is from 2020 and it seems they are going three years per sequel, the saga of Sherlock’s young sister could end in 2047, when Millie Bobby Brown will be 43 years old.
This is how the trailer for this third part begins, following the previous one: Enola is in love with Tewkesbury, but just as she is about to get married, she receives the news that her brother has disappeared. And of course, we’re not going to leave this saga without its obligatory cameo from Henry Cavill, so she embarks on an adventure, trying to find out who did it and why.
Probably, even though this movie may not be very successful, we will have Enola Holmes 4: it is a recognizable franchise for Netflix, wants to secure Millie Bobby Brown as a “house” star and it’s always nice to pick up the phone knowing that the one and only Henry Cavill is on the other end, right? There is no mystery there.
Wargaming is a studio that has focused on the realistic simulation of military vehicle battles. Tanks, planes, submarines. Nothing escapes them and everything goes well for them. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise us that their new title, World of Tanks: HEAT, has been launched with great interest from the public. And it has shown that it is possible to make a different tank game: one that resembles, at least a little, great online multiplayer games like Overwatch or Marvel Rivals.

Wargaming is a studio that has focused on the realistic simulation of military vehicle battles. Tanks, planes, submarines. Nothing escapes them and everything goes well for them. That’s why we shouldn’t be surprised that their new title, World of Tanks: HEAT, has been launched with great interest from the public. And it has shown that it is possible to create a different tank game: one that resembles, at least a little, great online multiplayer games like Overwatch or Marvel Rivals.
A different game
The most surprising thing about World of Tanks: HEAT is that it is a hero shooter in the form of a battleship game. This means that each of our agents has special abilities and differentiated roles, allowing us to customize our match. Making the game more visually appealing and accessible.
This, in addition, is compounded by the fact that the game has gained in spectacularity compared to its older brother, World of Tanks. The tanks are faster and lighter, more powerful, and the actions are more spectacular. Everything is more eye-catching and looks more impossible in a simulator like the game that turned Wargaming into a superpower in the video game industry. Although it never becomes simple or mindless: it still requires strategy, tactics, and skill.
This means that the game is slightly more complex than any hero shooter on the market. This is neither Overwatch nor Marvel Rivals, although it resembles them in spectacle, pace, and skill management. It requires much more teamwork and much more awareness, making it a deeper and more complex game, making it perfect for those who want a similar experience, but deeper.
World of Tanks: HEAT is the perfect game for those who want to take a step further in hero shooters. Not being as slow, methodical, and punishing as World of Tanks, nor as light and chaotic as traditional hero shooters, the virtue of World of Tanks: HEAT is having introduced the lightness and dynamism of hero shooters into the World of Tanks universe. So if you like tanks and are already tired of Overwatch, World of Tanks: HEAT could very well be your game.
CD Projekt has unexpectedly announced a new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Titled Songs of the Past, it will put us in the shoes of Geralt of Rivia, and it is being co-developed by Fool’s Theory, the team behind the RPG The Thaumaturge, and for now, we don’t know anything else except that we will learn more “by the end of summer.” A complete surprise, considering that the original game was released eleven years ago. An expansion for which we will have to wait. Although it seems we won’t have to wait long to know all the details about the expansion. CD Projekt has announced that they will broadcast […]
CD Projekt has unexpectedly announced a new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Entitled Songs of the Past, it will put us in the shoes of Geralt of Rivia, and is being co-developed by Fool’s Theory, the team behind the RPG The Thaumaturge, and for now we don’t know anything else except that we will learn more “by the end of summer.” Quite a surprise, considering that the original game was released eleven years ago.
An expansion that will require waiting
Although it seems we won’t have to wait long to know all the details about the expansion. CD Projekt has announced that they will broadcast a special live event on Thursday, May 28 at five in the afternoon, Spanish mainland time. Although they haven’t specifically announced what they will talk about, they have said that the event will feature Kacper Niepokólczycki and Magdalena Zych, and that “we will return once again to the land of knights, vineyards, and vampires.”
There have been many rumors for months about this expansion. It is likely to be a way to link the events of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with those of the upcoming The Witcher 4, according to those same rumors, it seems that CD Projekt wants to start rekindling interest in the witcher among its fans.
Now, if you want to play Songs of the Past you should know that you have to stay up to date. The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past will be released in 2027 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. So if we were thinking of playing it on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, we’re afraid you’ll have to pay again to be able to play it. Because the world keeps moving forward. Even The Witcher’s.
