‘Our resolve is unwavering and should not be tested’- Major union SAG-AFTRA breaks glass on big red strike button as negotiations continue on voice actor AI protections-

In September of last year, voice acting members of the SAG-AFTRA union—which represents a broad swathe of over 160,000 performing professionals across the industry—voted overwhelmingly to approve a strike.

This came after an Interactive Media Agreement with SAG-AFTRA expired in 2022, after being extended for two years—one of the reasons why a new agreement has not yet been reached? A slightly impactful new piece of technology called generative AI.

Aside from the fact we’ve now got to worry about Google’s new features recommending we drink our own wee, generative AI has been a nightmare for voice actors, and videogame companies haven’t been doing enough to protect performers according to SAG-AFTRA. As an announcement statement reads:

“Our resolve is unwavering and should not be tested. Our membership voted more than 98% yes to authorise a strike of this contract should the employers not come to the table with a deal that includes our critical provisions—especially in A.I.”

This union action mirrors a historic actors’ strike—similarly enacted by SAG-AFTRA—which lasted 118 days until a deal was struck with a whole host of …

Best VPN for gaming in 2024

If you’re privacy-conscious, or just happen to pay a whole lot of attention to YouTuber ads, you’ll be well aware of the value of using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). No matter what you get up to online (and hey, I’m not judging), VPNs provide heaps of benefits; from keeping your personal data out of the clutches of cyber-snoopers to unblocking streaming content that might otherwise be unavailable in your home country.

That said, if you’re a gamer, VPNs become even more useful. Stream snipers, hackers, and online gremlins aren’t afraid to slam other players with DDoS attacks—but a gaming VPN puts a stop to these antics, and can also help you bag region-specific games and massive deals in international sales.

There are a lot of VPNs on the market, however, and they’re not all worth your hard-earned cash. I’ve put the best VPNs under the microscope, comparing their features, speed, server count, and apps, to curate this list of the best gaming VPNs in 2024.

5 best VPNS: quick overview

Want the TL;DR? Here are today’s best gaming VPNs:

Baldur’s Gate 3 player thinks they’ve fooled a god with a first level spell, right until they realise they’ve stumbled into Act 2’s new worst ending-

Baldur’s Gate 3‘s second act has a couple of very important decisions—so much so I wrote a whole dang guide on how to thread its particular narrative needle. Before I get stuck into it, spoilers for the game’s second act, in case the headline didn’t clue you in.

A Reddit thread optimistically titled “How to bamboozle Lady Shar” by rokamuda (thanks, Gamesradar) lays out how exactly this comedy of errors happened. “I made short work of Nightsong, saw the cutscene of Last Light Inn dome crumbling and got all of Lady Shar’s boons … as I exited through the portal I got the cutscene of Lady Shar cursing me for not completing my mission, being marked as the enemy, and Shadowheart asking forgiveness.”

Turns out, that’s down to the Disguise Self spell. This first-level bit of trickery magic wraps you in the arcane guise of… well, anyone. Its scope is unfortunately a little limited in Baldur’s Gate 3, but it does change the context of a few scenes, letting you access different race’s dialogue options—some of which can get you into new areas, as long as you go in with a plan. It also lets you Speak with Dead to a corps…
