Elden Ring: Nightreign Tweaks Might Finally Make Solo Runs Fair
Elden Ring Nightreign officially launched on Friday, and a lot of players are having a rough time with the game. As a team-based game, players are having trouble finding a good party to take down the Nightlord. While solo play is possible, it's currently too difficult -- although that appears to be changing soon.
Developer FromSoftware sent a tweet on Friday via the official Elden Ring account about the upcoming changes in patch 1.02. The update includes two big changes that will help solo runs immensely: automatic revival and more runes.
In Elden Ring Nightreign, players are dropped on the island of Limveld to survive for three in-game days to take on the Nightlord. The task is tough enough for a team, but the difficulty ramps up when playing solo, as the bosses are designed to be beaten by three players.
Automatic revival is a one-time revive for solo players to take down the bosses, and it will help tremendously. Boss battles are tough solo, so being able to revive yourself will make the fights more manageable.
Gaining more runes will also be a big help. Runes act both as the currency and experience points in Elden Ring Nightreign. The more you have, the higher level you can obtain, and players need to be the right level to properly defeat a boss, otherwise, they're too weak to do any damage and not survive any hits.

Patch 1.02 for Elden Ring Nightreign will come out sometime next week. It will also add some other fixes to the game, along with improving solo play. Patch 1.01 went into effect on Thursday, right before the game's early access launch. FromSoftware didn't provide many details about the changes made in that update, but some players did say they noticed solo runs were slightly easier.
Elden Ring Nightreign is available now for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Series S and Xbox One consoles for $40. Owning the original Elden Ring is not required to play this game.

Shigeo Nagashima, ‘Mr. Baseball' of Postwar Japan, Dies at 89
Shigeo Nagashima, Japan's most celebrated baseball player and a linchpin of the storied Tokyo Yomiuri Giants dynasty of the 1960s and 1970s, died in a Tokyo hospital on Tuesday. He was 89. He died of pneumonia, according to a joint statement released by the Giants, the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper and Nagashima's management company. A star from his first season in 1958, Nagashima instantly made a splash with his powerful bat, speed on the basepaths and catlike reflexes as a third baseman. He notched numerous batting titles and Most Valuable Player Awards, and he was a key member of the Giants' heralded 'V-9' teams, which won nine consecutive Japan Series titles from 1965 to 1973. More than any player of his generation, Nagashima symbolized a country that was feverishly rebuilding after World War II and gaining clout as an economic power. Visiting dignitaries sought his company. His good looks and charisma helped make him an attraction; he was considered Japan's most eligible bachelor until his wedding in 1965, which was broadcast nationally. The news media tracked Nagashima's every move. The fact that he played for the Giants, who were owned by the Yomiuri media empire, amplified his exploits. He wore his success and celebrity so comfortably that he became known as 'Mr. Giants,' 'Mr. Baseball' or, sometimes, simply 'Mister.' 'No matter what he did or where he went there was a photo of him — attending a reception for the emperor, or coaching a Little League seminar, or appearing at the premiere of the latest Tom Cruise movie,' Robert Whiting, a longtime chronicler of Japanese baseball, wrote about Nagashima in The Japan Times in 2013. 'People joked that he was the real head of state.' None of that celebrity would have been possible had he not excelled as a ballplayer. Along with his teammate Sadaharu Oh, Japan's home run king, Nagashima was the centerpiece of the country's most enduring sports dynasty. He hit 444 home runs, had a lifetime batting average of .305, won six batting titles and five times led the league in runs batted in. He was a five-time most valuable player and was chosen as the league's top third baseman in each of his 17 seasons. He was inducted into Japan's Baseball Hall of Fame in 1988. A full version of this obituary will be published later. Hisako Ueno contributed reporting.

The Second Most Important Thing A Writer Must Do
College student, asian man and studying on laptop at campus, research and education test, exam books ... More and course project. Happy Japanese university student, knowledge and learning online technology Let's get the remarkable grasp of the obvious out of the way. The most important thing a writer must do is generate content. Runing a close second, though, is one of the most overlooked or taken-for-granted functions in all of communications: Revision. Other than the Ten Commandments – all 70 simple words – hardly a document has ever been written that either needed revision or already got it. Thomas Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence went through a round of revision, mostly with Benjamin Franklin and John Adams. Abraham Lincoln was busy revising his Gettysburg Address on the train ride from Washington, DC, only an hour or so before delivering his speech. JFK was revising his inaugural address in the limo on the way to the ceremony. Mark Twain was a stickler for revision: 'It usually takes me three weeks to write a good impromptu speech.' And if those four masters of the word needed to revise their works, so do you and I. Full stop. Here, then, are some of the major considerations for good revising that will help your writing become more clear, informative, persuasive, interesting, and lively – whatever your purpose is. There's an old saying among writers: 'Whatever you write is your baby. You have to learn to kill your babies.' No one is certain who first said it, but it most often gets attributed to William Faulkner. Generally, there are five steps in the writing process: prewriting (organization of thought, amassing data or other sources), drafting, revising, editing and proofreading, publishing or presenting. Know where you are and the purpose of each. For instance, editing and revising are two different things. The prefix – re – means again or over, and the root – vision – comes from the Latin – visus – to see. Revision means to see again. The document. What's your purpose and focus? Who's your audience? How will you structure and organize this? The paragraph. Paragraphs must have relevance (support the main idea), unity (among all sentences), and coherence (logical connection between preceding and following paragraphs). The sentence. Vary sentence lengths and beginnings. Run-on sentences are almost always sloppy. Incomplete sentences are usually disjointed, unless style matters and you really know what you're doing. The word(s) Write like you talk. Don't try to be someone else. Natural is best – and it shows. Use strong verbs, vivid adjectives, and specific nouns. Avoid unnecessary words or phrases, such as qualifiers (very, quite, somewhat), or empty phrases (as I said before, needless to say). Your first draft is never your final. But don't go directly from writing to revising. Put it away for a while, read it out loud, have a trusted colleague look it over. It's striking how new and different your document can be.
