Why I Love Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has somehow recaptured the feeling of the original Indiana Jones films in an incredible game format, I adore the Indiana Jones movies, The Last Crusade in particular, and was a bit hesitant with the game, but instead found myself transported into the shoes of Indiana himself.

Why The Witcher 3 Left Me Disappointed

A Fan’s Honest Critique of Star Wars Outlaws

Star Wars Outlaws has been the target of much online hate recently, and while much of it is valid due to some of Outlaw's outdated systems like most Ubisoft games, much of it is also unwarranted.

Understanding Elden Ring's World Design

Elden Ring is one the best open-world games, possibly ever, with From Software using their history with Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro to craft a massive world that is as intricate as a Dark Souls level. After playing Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, I felt like I had to give the game credit for its incredible use of open-world design in the most traditionally From Soft way. have a w...

    23:10 I'm pretty late here but I just wanted to add that CDPR have a history of making ridiculously solid expansion stories. While Witcher 3 had a solid base game in it's own right, every TW3 player will agree Hearts of Stone and Blood Of Wine expansions are some of the best crafted stories they have played. My personal favourite being Hearts of Stone. I was expecting a similar style and complexity for Phantom Liberty to hit me head on but, my fucking goodness, CDPR threw a curveball straight on my head except it wasnt a ball, it was a whole damn Chimera tank.

    I just started playing maybe a month ago and I got pulled in deep but I’m kind of getting bored now. Did all the gigs, jobs, ncpd - maxed out levels and got most iconics (not all), dug into lots of dark corners. It is amazing how many little details they have in there but more and more the city feels empty. I’ve contemplated installing the convai mod but I think it’s too shallow of an integration. But this is the kind of game that would definitely benefit from some deep “AI” type integrations, giving it more of a living and evolving city. Definitely a great environment though. Was fun listening to your pondering. I’m glad I missed the bad years :)

    Me and my roommates from undergrad in college were all super hyped for this game. We really felt this game had the potential to be the Destiny killer. The gameplay loops were solid, the flight is butter smooth, and it had so much potential. It sorely needed more Javelins, lots of weapons and weapon types, and mission variety. It could have went somewhere but it was just so strange that BioWare just dropped it completely. If memory serves, Mass Effect: Andromeda bombed and required 99% of Anthem’s dev power to be moved to fixing Mass Effect. Which, that move honestly left a sour taste in my both toward both Anthem and Mass Effect: Andromeda. I hate Andromeda because it killed Anthem and I doubly hate Andromeda because even with all that extra manpower, it was still such a lackluster entry in the Mass Effect series. At the end of the day, Anthem is what Andromeda should have been, gameplay wise.
