All in all, Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth holds up remarkably well in 2023. The game’s mix of 2D platforming and RPG mechanics wouldn’t be out of place in today’s indie scene, and ditto for its slightly opaque nature. Valkyrie Profile hails from a time when games weren’t afraid to have mysteries,...
The Devil in Me brings a very uneven first season of The Dark Pictures Anthology to a close, and I’m left a little ambivalent from the experience. I enjoyed all four of these games to some extent, and I’m curious as to what they’ll do with the next game, Directive...
Overall, I really enjoyed my time with This Way Madness Lies, so much so that I could cry, “good night, good night!

Darksiders III
It breaks my heart to say so, because I adore this series and the game isn’t without its bright spots. But when you factor in the pervasive technical issues, the shoehorned-in Soulslike mechanics, and the inconsistent combat, there’s very little to recommend here. Now, as of this writing, the developers...
In the interest of timeliness, the reviewer played through Part 1, some of Part 2 and all of the additional content before finishing this review.
Editor’s Note: As of this writing, THQ Nordic has released a patch that addresses some, but not all, of the aforementioned bugs. The audio synchronization has been fixed during cutscenes, as has the heavy slowdown during at least one of the encounters where it had been prevalent. I still had...
