When newly-founded indie studio Red Hook released Darkest Dungeon in early access in 2015 following a massively successful Kickstarter campaign, it was praised by many for its inventive plot and wonderfully woeful atmosphere, but it was grilled by lots of players for a difficulty level that relied heavily on RNG and oftentimes bordered on flat-out […]

If there’s a single word that I use far too often in my daily vernacular, it’s “dude”. It’s my go-to term of endearment, what I (admittedly) default to when I forget a name, as well as the preferred expression when I’m surprised, sad, mad, happy, indifferent… you get the drift.

Marvel’s Warhammer 40,000 comic is taking a big risk with an iconic hero
In October I praised Marvel’s Warhammer 40,000: Marneus Calgar #1 for dotting its Is and crossing its Ts. The tone of that first issue was spot on, with all the grim darkness that the far future deserves. Best of all, the art was perfect — right down to the number of rivets on the chapter […]
