ELEX II is a shining example of how great western action-RPGs can be. The fact that this game gives you an actual jetpack changes everything. The freedom ELEX II allows through the traversal mechanics is something that I have never encountered before in a game like this but will now...
Yet, in spite of all of these things, I can't stop thinking about Martha Is Dead, even if I'm not entirely sure I was enjoying it for most of its mid-section. It shines when it really leans into its psychological thriller/ horror elements, but they feel so sporadic and fleeting...
For the first time since I was a child, I finally feel excited for the future of Pokemon. While it's true that Pokemon Legends: Arceus has some problems that do feel inexcusable in this day and age, there's no doubt that the game is a milestone for the franchise. I...
As an open-world skeptic who was pretty much convinced that the Souls formula wouldn't work in such a setting, I'm happy to have been proven wrong. Elden Ring retains the heart of what makes FromSoft's action RPGs so compelling, and takes things to a whole other level by pulling the...
Horizon Forbidden West is a spectacular sequel to one of the PS4's best exclusives. Its narrative is one of its strengths, with unforgettable characters and twists and turns that maintain a solid pace throughout, and it's combat has been expanded on, adding in new weapon and ammo types to make...

Lost Ark might be one of the most banal games you'll ever come across if you're just looking at it from a narrative point of view, but it's a prime example of how good gameplay and combat can carry the entire experience. Sometimes, all it takes is the appeal of...
Overall, I was pretty disappointed with Sifu. I know that it's an excellent game. The combat is tight, feels really fluid, and is going to provide a nice challenge for people who want one. However, its gameplay loop and punishing aging system and multiplier, mixed with a lack of proper...
All in all, I loved the time I spent playing OlliOlli World. The addition of a 2.5D landscape really opens up the gameplay, which in turn creates so many new ways to play the game. And even though it does faulty just a little when it comes to its story,...
Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker succeeds in its most important mandate from the fans: delivering a proper and satisfying ending to the Hydaelyn and Zodiarc saga.
While Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel may be a bit barebones at the moment, the game provides just enough engaging core features to keep you building custom decks and battling friends, the AI, or other players for hours on end.
Overall, Windjammers 2 is a massive success that fans of the franchise will surely enjoy and those new to the game will quickly understand why the fans of the original game love it. The lack of game modes with meaningfully different gameplay is unquestionably disappointing. Yet, the core gameplay is...
