One week isn’t enough to really understand everything about this game. The campaign is complete, but there is much still to do with the post-game content, trophies and what I can only assume are many more mysteries I can solve. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is not a game you should...
I feel like Capcom was finally able to settle on a formula that doesn’t feel too experimental, while at the same time not being so safe that it’s a bore. Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is sterile on the surface, but a functional as hell fighter. I’m fine with that. Are you?
But apart from all this, aside from all the little flaws and the feeling of tedium that permeated large portions of my experience with ARK: Survival Evolved, I can’t fault the game for what it is, which is one of the best in its genre — even if after playing...
Tooth and Tail
I can easily recommend Tooth and Tail for anyone who enjoys the genre, even if you don’t care for multiplayer. The story mode is robust and greatly enjoyable, but the multiplayer still has all the bells and whistles that veterans expect by now like replays and post-match graphs. I hope that a...
Destiny 2
Destiny 2 commits a lot of the same sins as its father, but it succeeded in doing something the original never did — make roaming around the open world fun and rewarding. It still has a lot of room to evolve with expansions and major updates, but the future is...
I haven’t seen a world this interesting in horror for a while. I apparently took 62 screenshots while playing, and that goes to show how much there is to take in. A few minor technical flaws keep me from giving it a perfect score, but Observer is one of my...
Despite the long load screens, I enjoyed my time with Pillars of Eternity, and look forward to continuing my journey through Eora. The setting and characters are wonderful, and anyone looking for a meaty, densely plotted RPG will find a lot to like. Simply put, games like this rarely get...
Before the Storm‘s first chapter has already deflected most of the pre-release concerns that “This doesn’t need to exist.” Maybe it doesn’t because Life is Strange‘s story was self-contained. Then again, maybe Life is Strange is better off with this complementing it. After its debut, I’m fully willing to argue that...
I wasn’t super impressed by Monster Hunter Stories but I don’t think the developers intended for it to be a game-changer. It’s an above-average RPG infused with some of the cuteness of the Monster Hunter universe, with portability to boot.
Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth‘s strengths aren’t entirely justified by the sheer amount of time it would take to experience them in full, but anyone that’s already willing to give it that time – or those who come in with properly calibrated expectations – will find an entertaining saga that’s worth...
Darkwood
Darkwood does a great job of showing off its weird, unsettling world, but it struggles to tell players what they have to do. The woods are home to secrets and terrible truths alike. Though it falls short of reaching its full potential, mostly due to questionable controls and cumbersome combat,...
