The Steven Universe RPG Introduces An All-New Evil Gem

Steven Universe: Save the Light is coming to Xbox One next week, and a brand-new baddie is coming with it. Meet pompous Homeworld commander Hessonite.

The follow-up to Grumpyface's outstnading mobile RPG Attack the Light, Steven Universe: Save the Light is a console RPG featuring an original story developed with series creator Rebecca Sugar. A mysterious warrior steals a powerful weapon from the Crystal Gems' Beach City home, so Steven and friends embark on an adventure to retrieve it before it's used for not-so-good. Now we meet the evil gemstone pulling the strings. Here's Hessonite making her grand entrance.

If the voice sounds familiar, that's because they have tapped Emmy and Tony Award-winning actress Christine Baranski to play Hessonite, infusing her with the perfect blend of menace and aloofness.

For the geologically-minded Steven Universe fans, sessonite is a variety of grossular, which is in the garnet group of minerals. Due to its red, orange and yellow colouring, it's also known as cinnamon stone. Spicy!

Steven Universe: Save the Light launches on Xbox One on November 3, with a PlayStation 4 release to follow.

    Correction: PS4 release is October 31st - or at least it says in the description on the PlayStation YouTube channel's upload of the trailer.

    Attack the Light was a phenomenal mobile game, although pretty short, so I'm super excited for a fully fledged sequel.

The Australian Senate inquiry into micro-transactions heard a call for "serious consideration" to restrict games with loot boxes to "players of legal gambling age" yesterday. The authors of a large scale study presented their findings, strongly supporting a previous study that claimed loot boxes were psychologically akin to gambling.

Nappies, Divorces And Unstable Pay: Parents On Twitch Struggle To Strike A Balance

In February, aspiring streamer Mystic hit a breaking point. When her kids started going to school, she had decided to try to turn streaming on Twitch from a hobby into a career. At first, she only streamed during the day while they were away, but as time went on, she became obsessed with keeping her numbers up. She started streaming at night, too, after they went to sleep. Self-care went out the window. Streaming and family — those were the only things she had time for. One day, right before a stream, she had a panic attack. All the pressures and unattended wants and needs boiled over. She quit streaming shortly after.
