The Art of Effortless Travel: Why Comfort Beats Convenience After 40
For the mature traveller, true luxury lies not in how fast you go, but in how well you travel There comes a point in every traveller’s life when speed stops being the priority. After years of rushing through airports, crowded train stations, and overpacked itineraries, something shifts. The journey itself, the quiet moments between destinations, begins to matter more. This is the essence of effortless travel. And for many over 40, it is becoming the new definition of luxury. A Changing Definition of Adventure In our twenties and thirties, travel often meant adventure at any cost: overnight buses, cheap flights, and chasing the next destination with little sleep and too many transfers.

Every once in a while, the galaxy gives us a miracle — and this one’s for Star Wars gaming fans. After scouring the depths of the internet for days, the lost behind-the-scenes video for Charr, the fiery Trandoshan bounty hunter from Star Wars: Hunters, has finally resurfaced.

Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron Released on This Day in 2007
Eighteen years ago, on October 9, 2007, Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron hit the shelves as a PlayStation Portable (PSP) exclusive — and while it might not have had the flashiest graphics or the biggest marketing budget, it became a cult favorite among Star Wars gamers who wanted something a little more personal in their galactic warfare. Developed by Rebellion Developments and published by LucasArts, Renegade Squadron was built on the legacy of the original Battlefront titles but dared to tweak the formula in bold ways. Its biggest innovation? Character customization. For the first time in the series, players could design their own Rebel or Imperial soldier — swapping weapons, grenades, gadgets, and even appearance. Instead of being stuck with fixed “classes,” you could be a sniper with a jetpack, a heavy gunner with stealth gear, or a support unit with auto-turrets. It was chaotic, unbalanced, and utterly brilliant. A…
Inside the Galaxy: Director Jose Perez III Gives Us a Tour of Star Wars: Beyond Victory
In a recent interview with ILM, Star Wars: Beyond Victory director Jose Perez III pulled back the curtain on the game’s creative journey, design choices, and what it’s like balancing legacy lore with fresh experimentation. If you’ve been curious how a mixed reality (MR) Star Wars experience comes to life, this is your behind-the-scenes pass. What Beyond Victory Really Is Perez begins by framing Beyond Victory not as a single-mode title, but a playset with three distinct ways to play: He described this layered structure as something that mirrors how fans engage with Star Wars: watching the story, playing the game, and rearranging toys on the floor as kids. Beyond Victory aims to be all three, in one MR package. Perez’s Role: More Than Just “Director” Being the credited director doesn’t mean just calling cuts. For Perez, it meant: He describes that process as deeply iterative — honesty, critique, and…

Star Wars fans love a good deep-cut detail, and the team behind Star Wars: Beyond Victory has delivered a gem worthy of a Hutt’s treasure hoard. If you’ve seen Grakkus the Hutt’s new look in Beyond Victory, you probably noticed the string of Lightsaber hilts draped around his neck — a bold fashion statement even by galactic crime lord standards. But here’s the kicker: those hilts aren’t just random trinkets. They’re actually crafted from Lightsaber parts seen in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. A Collector With Taste (and Terrifying Strength) Grakkus has always been the galaxy’s most dangerous collector of Jedi relics.
