“Dark Souls with guns”. This is how most people I know have initially described Remnant: From the Ashes, originally released in 2019 to some surprisingly positive reception. It wasn’t exactly the kind of game that would end up winning awards, but everyone I know who has played it really enjoyed...
When Octopath Traveler released back in 2018, it was an immediate hit. Fans were blown away by this love letter to classic JRPGs, with its striking blend of HD lighting and environments and 2D pixel art graphics. Sure, it had some issues, with some storylines not being as good as...
Trauma affects everyone at some point in their lives. There are a wide variety of traumatic situations that one could experience in their lifetime: domestic abuse, childhood neglect, drug addiction, an unexpected death, etc. The fact of the matter is that everyone, even those with a seemingly better lot in...
In the time between the release of Blood Bowl 2 and 3, I have actually played the real tabletop game. I’ve actually got really invested into the extremely expensive hobby of Warhammer wargaming. And while Blood Bowl wasn’t the sole reason, it being my original introduction to the IP is...
Monster Energy Supercross 6. Yep, six. The sixth iteration of a racing franchise that isn’t bad at all, but makes you question whether or not it is really necessary for it to get yearly sequels at a staggering pace. Do we need six of those? The Monster Energy Supercross seasons...

Atari is starting to delve into some deep cuts with its latest Recharged titles, and I’m more than happy with this strategy. Not long ago, I was somewhat complaining that the only thing the company was doing was releasing Recharged games, some of which were pretty boring and uninteresting, like...
Going in, my expectations for Company of Heroes 3 were very negative. I found the previews unengaging and uninspiring. Early impressions I read weren’t particularly positive or hopeful. And hanging above all was the specter of Dawn of War III’s disastrous short-lived life. While I may be a newcomer to...
