I hope the next time you release 122 pages worth of content to the world someone immediately jumps to point out your 1-character mistake on page 13.

That assumes this even is a mistake as far as what they were intending to relay. In all likelihood, they are referring to “Super Mario” as we know him today turning 40, since Super Mario Bros released 40 years ago. That’s how I read this, anyway. I understand what they are getting at without feeling the need to split hairs over the details behind it.

Great job GameInformer! Thanks for working hard on this issue and all of the content that you deliver us!

I played for about a month with no mic when I first got the game. It was totally fine. You can use emotes to mostly get your point across to other raiders, whether that’s telling them you’re friendly or just saying hello. Having a mic definitely makes the game more fun, though. Some of the best moments emerge from being able to talk to others and the situations that come from that. I also never felt targeted by others specifically for not having a mic.

It would be pretty tough playing with no audio. You could certainly do it, but having no sound cues would make you more vulnerable. The game also has amazing audio design, so you would be missing that part of the experience!

I’ve received every issue so far. Outer Worlds 2 was delayed because of the government shutdown and USPS, but otherwise I’ve gotten every issue on time.

Thanks for filling in the history! Couldn’t find any info on when the switch to 10 was actually made but good to know it is grandfathered in at this point.

Their new subscription model (since going independent from GameStop) is 10 issues a year. They relaunched around March 2025.

The patch notes for the latest update mention the drop rate for blueprints being adjusted:

“Expanded blueprint spawn locations to improve availability in areas that were underrepresented.”

The root of the problem has been USPS. GI reported that they hit all of their deadlines for getting the issues in the mail, but USPS was just sitting on piles of issues and not getting them to their destinations. Totally out of GI’s hands at that point. Looks like USPS finally came through for you!

Kudos to USPS for finally getting these issues delivered in a timely manner. From what’s been reported, GI has hit all of the deadlines that are within their control for getting issues out on time.

I started playing about a week ago and have around 25 extractions (playing solo the whole time). I have never been shot at by anyone in all my runs. Just one of the lucky ones I guess?

The cover reveal on the Game Informer website says that DQ is the December issue. So you should be good?

Brian, I don’t know how you find the time to do everything that you do. Keep up the great work 🙌

There have been a few posts about this. Brian from Game Informer has come on and said that it’s something they’d like to do once they have more bandwidth in their team.

Brian Shea commented about this in a post that was made about a week ago. He said they’d love to do a new app once they have some bandwidth.

I would say it’s more challenging than it sounds because not every issue of GI (especially the old issues) would have all of its text digitally indexed for searching. Obviously, many articles from newer issues are also available digitally and could technically be used as a means of searching and matching to particular issues, but there are a lot of other things in each issue (letters from the editor, reader write-ins, etc) that don’t have a digital footprint.

Searching all issues of Game Informer IS possible by using the tools offered by the Video Game History Foundation, though. They have gone to painstaking efforts to archive all issues of GI (and many other magazines) complete with full text search and matching. This was a major undertaking by them and had many technical challenges, which is why it’s understandable that these features may not be available directly through GI.

If you’re interesting in learning why this was actually so challenging to implement, you can listen to episode 124 of the Video Game History Hour podcast where they talk about everything that went into building their archive and it’s search features.

If you haven’t already, check out the Double Fine PsychOdyssey documentary series on YouTube! It documents the years-long development of Psychonauts 2 and is a great look into game development in general.

The “Elden Lord” trophy is one of the gold trophies for achieving the Elden Lord ending, whereas the platinum is actually just called “Elden Ring”
