For me, the choice between Kaze and Forge is what makes this stand out. A sword fighter and a gun user usually play completely differently, so this might feel like two games in one. I like how Forge has wall jumps, because that already changes how you think about navigating the levels compared...

Honestly, I just want to run this for the hand-drawn maps and illustrations. It looks really immersive. The different factions and rumors give me ideas for adding side plots and extra tension. I feel like my players will enjoy it because they can explore freely, fight enemies, and chase the...

This game’s art is beautiful. I paused the trailer many times just to look at the lines and colors. Hand-drawn games feel more personal. You can see the love put into each detail. I also like that the desert is big and open. It reminds me of old cartoons I watched as a kid. I do not always...

It looks fun, but I wonder if it will get too hard too fast. Some roguelites forget that players need a little breathing room to enjoy the mechanics before punishing them. Hopefully there are good tutorials or beginner options.

I think The Twenty-Sided Tavern is genius for bringing in Travis McElroy this week. His Trickster role fits him like a glove—he’s so entertaining. The upcoming guests, like Anjali Bhimani and Becca Scott, promise more great nights. I’m fascinated by the Gamiotics app—voting on the story is such...

Wildkeepers Rising hits all the right notes. The lore hinted at in the demo piqued my interest, and the creature designs are both whimsical and fierce. I'm looking forward to diving deeper into its world upon release.

Concord's failure is a cautionary tale for the gaming industry. It's a reminder that even the biggest companies can make mistakes. Sony's response is encouraging, but it remains to be seen if they can truly deliver on their promise of more single-player games. No one will pay for a game from a...

Cool concept. I love the idea of a game that combines tabletop gaming with drinking. It's a unique twist on the genre. I'm definitely interested in trying it out. The art looks great too. I'm a fan of Titmouse's work, so I know it's going to be high quality

This is both exciting and terrifying! As a DM myself, I can see the potential for hilarious audience choices and unexpected twists. But on the other hand, wouldn't it be frustrating to have your carefully crafted campaign thrown into chaos by random audience votes? Still, the idea is...

So... Atlus is reportedly shifting away from Persona to create a democratic monarchy RPG. I have my doubts about this. I absolutely adored Persona 5 and the unique blend of school life and demon battling that made Atlus stand out. This new game, Metaphor ReFantazio, seems like a departure from...

It's amazing how these Marvel vs. Capcom games elevated Psylocke's status far beyond what her movie and cartoon appearances did. In the games, she's a powerhouse with unique abilities and a standout presence in the roster. It's like they captured her essence in a way that other media adaptations...

An Arkanoidvania, huh? Interesting concept. I love a good Metroidvania, and the nostalgia factor of Arkanoid is strong. But will the core gameplay hold up for eighty screens? Repetition can be a real killer in these brick-breakers. And while a gothic setting sounds cool, I'm worried it...

Phew! What a chaotic car wreck for Helldivers II. Thankfully, Sony saw sense and scrapped the mandatory PSN requirement. It was a bizarre decision from the start, and I'm glad the community outcry made a difference. Here's hoping this is a learning experience for Sony. Sure, the negative...

Yes! That sounds and looks amazing. I mean, don't get me wrong, I like the intensely serious Transformers films, but we also deserve a lighter version, you know? It's refreshing to see them dial back a bit and explore the origins in a different light. Plus, can we talk about the Cybertronian...

People like that boring walking simulator?
