As noted by Shopfood.com, Starbucks licenses its brand name and products to Target, allowing shoppers to experience the coffee chain in-store. However, those working at these licensed Starbucks locations are actually Target employees, and as such, they do not receive the same benefits afforded to those employed by Starbucks proper. In her video, TikToker Anna (@annalovescoffee) simply wrote, using on-screen captions: “Corporate workers knowing Target Starbucks workers get $15/hr doing less work....

And yes, that gaudy 800,000 number is definitely a sign of StarCraft 2’s impending success. VGChartz projects equally staggering statistics for the Blizzard franchise after its release tonight: 1 million North American sales in the first week, worldwide sales of 3 million units in the first week, and over 10 million total sales before the end of 2010.

Players will receive this specific sculpture of Leah’s during her sixth heart event when she shows up at the farmhouse door. The sculpture is titled “How I Feel About <Farmer’s Name>” and though it may look like any other abstract creation, it’s thought to be correlated with the secret locked boxes located around Pelican Town.

There are 12 marriage candidates in Stardew Valley, six bachelors and six bachelorettes. While each relationship is identical mechanically, they all bring the player into contact with different personalities and stories that flesh out the world. Some of these are heavier than others, such as helping Shane deal with his depression and alcohol addiction. Penny also has demons to deal with, but leaves a kinder first impression on the player than Shane, which may encourage people to help her build a brighter future....

However, fans should not bother waiting, as there is no after-credit scene in Star Wars Episode IX. This will surely be a disappointment for some fans, though a definite relief to their bladders, which have already had to sit through two hours-plus of the movie. The biggest Star Wars fans, however, may not be surprised by this news, as none of the other films in the franchise have had scenes after the credits started rolling, so there was no reason that The Rise of Skywalker would be an exception....

Sure, we’re scratching the surface, but the game is evolving. And it’s not just bloggers who are utilizing things like puck possession, zone entries and an understanding of percentages to digest the on-ice product. Many a team has already come out and admitted to using “advanced stats” (which isn’t actually news, really, but is still treated as a big deal because of a weird need to overcompensate that some of us seem to maintain....

Though Star Fox 64 has largely seen praise as the franchise’s pinnacle, its follow-up in Star Fox Adventures brought the Star Fox franchise into a whole new genre, re-imaging the 3D rail shooter as an adventure game and gaining a cult following among fans. While the game saw poor reception on release, its Zelda-inspired gameplay helped the game to stand out from its predecessors on the GameCube. Now, with Star Fox not seeing a new game in the franchise in over six years, one fan has stepped up to take the series in a familiar direction with Star Fox Conquest....

Ezra Bridger, for those who don’t know, was introduced in the animated Star Wars Rebels series, which ended with his fate left in the air.

Gilroy recently spoke about the topic in an interview, finally offering some insight as to why a Star Wars show set in a galaxy far, far away seems to focus entirely on humans. Maybe it’s to avoid drawing attention away from dramatic elements like Syril Karn’s (Kyle Soller) vicious obsession with Cassian Andor (Diego Luna). Or perhaps it really does have something to do with not having the means to design and outfit so many alien characters....

Russian Doll co-creator Leslye Headland is probably not the first creator fans would’ve placed in the showrunners’ chair for an upcoming Star Wars series, but The Acolyte is on its way. There’s not a ton of information about the show, and it hasn’t even started filming yet, but there is one important detail about the series that clearly sets it apart.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Which Force Powers to Upgrade First Lightning Players are advised to put their first Force Points toward Lightning, a deadly attack that is executed by holding down the A button. Indeed, Lightning is a very useful Force Power, acting as both a damage dealer and a crowd controller, and increasing its efficacy is a huge boon. Notably, Lightning is also good for building combo multipliers, and Star Wars fans that upgrade it first should earn the Force Points that they invested in this Force Power back quickly....

It has been quite a while since Star Wars: The Old Republic’s last expansion, Knights of the Eternal Throne, launched all the way back in 2016. However, the game has maintained a dedicated player base, and many still find Star Wars: The Old Republic worth visiting as the game approaches its 10 year anniversary.

The currently running beta was initially scheduled to be taken down later on today but developer DICE have reportedly extended that deadline in order to test some of the more “extreme scenarios” of the game’s online infrastructure. However, DICE warns that this testing may result in some players experiencing occasional connection issues such as being kicked from the game over the beta’s remaining day. The Star Wars Battlefront Community Manager, known as Sledgehammer70, stated:...

The first game had a lot of strong aspects that Jedi: Fallen Order 2 should continue to use. The expansive Metroidvania style levels, inventive combat systems, and relatively open skill tree all helped players feel like they were the Jedi. Cal Kestis’ character and the Mantis crew were also some of the most compelling Star Wars characters in recent history, with rich backstories and thought-out consequences to their actions. The Jedi: Fallen Order sequel will likely build on the areas that the original excelled in, but its strengths will most likely come from external sources....

Now that pre-orders are available for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the game’s pre-order bonus has been announced as well. Those that decide to pre-order the upcoming game will get exclusive cosmetics for Cal’s lightsaber and his droid BD-1.

The Star Wars franchise is known for making enormous franchise-wide decisions on very short notice. If one film underperforms, fans should no longer be surprised to see the entire corporate strategy shift. This cancelation, however, may represent a shift compelled by success rather than failure.
