With a new level cap of 90, you'll set off in service of taking out Xal'atath and saving Azeroth. If you're not familiar with the narrative of WoW in the modern age, it's been going places, sometimes to the chagrin of long-time players. In Midnight, it's time to saddle up...
Crimson Desert
Of particular note are the puzzles. Crimson Desert has a ton, many of which are related to the main questline, and many of which are optional and peppered around the open world, not unlike Breath of the Wild's shrine puzzles. I'm not ashamed to say that many of these stumped...
Beyond that, I can't list all of the many subtler changes that fans of the original will appreciate. I love how loose items are now perfectly detailed, so no more grabbing a nondescript sphere to discover that it’s actually a folklorist’s journal or pack of film. Grab scares are much...
Each area comes with various types and rarities of Monster Dens, and there are almost unlimited materials to gather. You'll find a host of side quests as well, but there are also Side Stories this time around. Each one lets you spend some time with a fellow Ranger in your...
Marathon
Another big negative for Marathon is the stingy "reward pass," which is Bungie's version of a season pass. Seemingly taking no lessons from the last eight-ish years of battle/season pass development, it doesn't provide in-game currency or tantalizing rewards. It's just as dull as the Halo Infinite season pass was...
Scott Pilgrim EX
It’s been fifteen years since Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game released, and a cool five since I published my review of the repackaged Complete Edition. As the first proper video game sequel, Tribute Games’ Scott Pilgrim EX is in a unique position, essentially using a throwback genre to...
Pokémon Pokopia
Therefore, I am so grateful for the chance to review Pokémon Pokopia and experience this cozy life sim early. Despite only being 10 GB in size, I've played over 35 hours of Pokémon Pokopia so far, according to my Switch 2. Given that I've also done quite a bit of...
Grace isn't going to be popping off every enemy she sees with a magnum. Instead, you'll have more limited amounts of ammo, a string of breakable, smaller knives (as opposed to Leon's beast of a hatchet that can be repaired in real time), and more of a reliance on crafting...
High on Life 2
Enemies are also a bit more varied this time, with bounty hunter baddies donning suits that can split apart after death, creating more threats. The bosses, however, remain a sore point. The bullet-spongey feel of the original bosses returns, coupled with some awkward (and in a few cases, glitchy) transitions...
The narrative is told through a haphazard set of meta-narrative/self-aware sections and dramatic elements that involve Romeo's grasp on reality and what it means to be human. Grasshopper is known for threading the needle nicely in their past work, and they pull it off again here. Because of how violent...
Fever shots as a whole can make the game extremely hectic, but also add a lot of personality. It's especially fun in doubles matches, where you can temporarily eliminate an opponent with a well-timed lob like an arcade game. Yep, that's right: Characters now have HP (health points) as well....
Absent the aforementioned retcon, I found the updated translation and script in Yakuza Kiwami 3 to be a noticeable improvement, and Dark Ties’ entertaining Hell’s Arena sweetens the deal. Without it, I’d arguably still recommend the game, albeit with the caveat that curious fans might want to carefully weigh their...
