Popular Steam Wallpaper Program Removes App Over Malware Concerns

Popular Steam Wallpaper Program Removes App Over Malware Concerns https://ift.tt/ZxN0kBI Wallpaper Engine has been a popular wallpaper tool on Steam for the better part of a decade since its release. However, the tool's application wallpaper was apparently hijacked by bad actors months ago who used it to infect users' machines with malware as the desktop wallpaper program ran in the background. Now, Wallpaper Engine's application is going to be permanently removed from the program over those malware concerns. In a statement on Steam , the program's developers stated that users have a limited time to back up any wallpapers used from the application before the app is removed on Monday, July 6. The devs also note that removing the app only affects "0.5% of all wallpapers with actual user numbers being much lower than even that."

Dragon Age Creator Says The Series Has Long-Term Story Plans

Dragon Age Creator Says The Series Has Long-Term Story Plans https://ift.tt/WjMdq5X

This week, Dragon Age fans have been able to dive back into the continent of Thedas in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Longtime players may recognize that events in the game were foreshadowed some of the previous installments. According to former Dragon Age lead writer David Gaider, that's because he laid out of the series' lore years ago in a document that's still influencing the direction of the games.

"The way I created the world was to seed plots in various parts of the world that could be part of... a single game," Gaider told Eurogamer. "Then there was the overall uber-plot, which I didn't know for certain that we would ever get to, but I had an understanding of how it all worked together... A lot of that was in my head until we were starting Inquisition and the writers got a little bit impatient with my memory or lack thereof, so they pinned me down and dragged the uber-plot out of me. I'd talked about it, I'd hinted at it, but never really spelled out how it all connected, so they dragged it out of me. We put it into a master lore doc, the secret lore, which we had to hide from most of the team."

Although Gaider left BioWare after Dragon Age: Inquisition, there are signs in The Veilguard that his original plan is still being followed, at least to a degree. He pointed to the return of Fen'Harel as a major example. However, Gaider declined to state what his original ending for the Dragon Age lore was just in case BioWare ever gets around to telling that story.
