How Urban Myth Dissolution Center Uses Social Media And Minimalism To Tell A Horror Story

Gaming visuals feel like they evolve slowly when you’re living through that evolution in real time, but in hindsight, the speed of development is staggering. My first big game was Super Mario 64 in the late 1990s, a game whose detail blew my mind as a five-year old. Then, in what felt like the blink of an eye, I was 29 and watching men raging onlineabout Aloy ‘having a beard’in Horizon Forbidden West in 2022....

I Refuse To Play Indiana Jones Until It Comes To PS5

Indiana Jones and the Great Circleis my kind of video game. I’m a big fan of the Steven Spielberg and George Lucas-created film series that inspired it. I loveUnchartedand immersive sims in equal amounts, and this first-person stealth adventure sounds like the perfect combination of those interests. On top of that, developer MachineGames’ previous single-player outing,Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus, is one of my favorite games of the last console generation....

I'm Begging Companies To Stop Using Late Game Footage In Trailers

I try my hardest to avoid watching trailers these days, no matter how much I may be looking forward to a game or film. That’s because most companies fall into the same trap of revealing too much, ruining part or all of the experience for me. Trailers don’t just offer a taste of what to expect anymore - many use clips from late in the story, or sometimes even notable spoilers....

Is Avowed Worth It?

Quick Links One thing that likely drew a lot of people toAvowedwas the idea ofSkyrimbut with guns. And true enough, Avowed is reminiscent of Skyrim and many other great RPGs (but this time with guns, even if the guns aren’t really necessary for a great experience). What would also be accurate is Skyrim but with way more colorful mushrooms, which lends itself well to cultivating the concept of a unique fantasy world, plagued by rot and a spirit sickness....

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Restricting Your Saves Is Good, Actually

WhenKingdom Come: Deliverancedebuted in 2018, its save mechanics were controversial. There was no manual save option in the menu. Instead, in the name of immersion, you needed to craft a drink called Saviour Schnapps. You could also sleep in your bed to save, but the adventurer on the go doesn’t have time for naps. The long and short of it was that, unless you owned a bed or crafted a consumable, you were stranded without a save....

Marvel Rivals Lead Says Doctor Strange's Portals Were Challenging To Make

Summary Marvel Rivalsis almost an anomaly. The hero shooter not only looks and performs well, it’s also fun to play, has a healthy content roadmap, and, most importantly, does not feature predatory microtransactions. It’s no wonder that the game has managed to hold on to its player count for longer than any other recent multiplayer game.
