Let’s get this out of the way upfront – the Gravastar Mercury V60 Pro is one hell of a strange-looking gaming keyboard. Its Giger-esque frame built from rippling, winding aluminium curves wouldn’t look out of place in Alien, or even some of the Metroid games, and it’s an aesthetic that might instantly write it off […]
Carcosa is a planet rich in an incredibly unique and valuable resource known as Lucenite, and you don’t just discover this sort of thing without sparking a corporate interest. And so we meet Arjun (played by the very handsome and talented Rahul Kohli), an Enforcer with a vastly powerful company by the name of Soltari,
