The PC version improves on this in terms of lighting and anti-aliasing, as is to be expected, but it's clear that it was not the lead platform - the game was mainly designed for Quest and PSVR, which shows again in the roughness of many models and surface shaders. In...

Still, my complaints aside, Monster Hunter Stories 2 is an entertaining sequel that is worthy of co-existing alongside the excellent mainline series of games. Fighting alongside my favourite beasts from the franchise never failed to be entertaining and I liked how the option was present to combine together different monster...

But, technology rant aside, Old World looks and plays great. The performance of the title is fluid and fast and the UI has been designed in a way that promotes ease of use for the most part - despite the fact that you have so many options it feels like...

Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance has been called a spiritual sequel to Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, which was released in 2001. The latter received a re-release earlier this year, which I would actually recommend over this game. Although it's showing its age, it's still a fun game to romp through...

Overall, Dark Deity is a title certainly worth playing. It scratches an itch SRPG fans miss without Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem on the horizon, whilst distinctly rehashing the formula set out in those games. An impressive indie effort.

Fortunately, I don't think many people who buy a Mario golf game are concerned with whether or not the technical aspects are up to par, and in the end, it's all about the enjoyment of the game. And here it delivers big time. Mario Golf: Super Rush is deep enough...

Since the enemy's level automatically scales according to your own progress, the game experience remains challenging even for people who grind a lot. That is especially noticeable in exhausting boss fights during the latter parts.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is a stunningly crafted remake that stays faithful to the original even though it hasn't aged the best in many places. When toggling between the remake and the original the difference is truly night and day, and the two new modes: Boss Rush and...

For me, The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood turns out to be a mixed package overall. The companion system is perhaps the best expansion of the game so far, whereas the Blackwood area could hardly grab me at all. In the end, as always, it depends on the interests of every...

To conclude, Guilty Gear Strive is an excellent, genre-defining fighting game experience barred by some weird development decisions and technical issues. All issues we can expect to be solved by the developers within the coming weeks or months. As it stands, Strive is a must-play for fans of the genre,...

Opportunities to determine Mo's path on her emotional journey and thus being able to find a fraction of yourself in her character would have been a nice addition that combines the game and its central message even more. Even without complex challenges, or perhaps precisely because of the lack of...

I find Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection to be like a recovered ancient treasure. It effortlessly utilises everything from the ninja topic and it includes not only gorgeous and blood-soaked action but also an adequately vivid story, and plenty of inventive areas to explore and epic enemies to butcher. Sure, a...
