I’ve finally stopped sleeping on Temtem. It passed me by last year, but since coming to PS5 this January, I’ve had my eye on it. While waiting on the 1.3 patch of Disco Elysium, I finally downloaded it and gave it a try. If you’re on the fence like I was, I advise you to […]
Ten Years On, Game Of Thrones’ First Season Is Still The Gold Standard
I love lists. I love ranking my favourite games, albums, films, TV shows… you name it. Mass Effect 2, Red, Lost In Translation, and The Simpsons, for the record. Of all the pop culture things I’d consider to be in my ‘best of’ lists though, the one I struggle with the most is Game of […]
Wanderhome is a Redwall-inspired RPG that arms players with dialogue, not daggers
“You wield the blade that must never be drawn.” This is the first line in playbook for The Veteran, one of 15 classes in the highly-anticipated new tabletop RPG, Wanderhome. Created by independent designer Jay Dragon, on the surface it’s a pastoral fantasy perfect for adventurers who want to dangle their furry toes in the […]

I’m 400 Hours Deep And Still Haven’t Beaten The Witcher 3
The Witcher 3’s next-gen upgrade is right around the corner and I’m amping myself up for a playthrough where I actually beat the damn thing. I’m 400 hours deep, started it when I was in secondary school, and now – I’m wrapping up university and still haven’t quite finished it. I’ve poured hours in, went back and […]

The Elder Scrolls Online Companion System Is Better Than I Expected
The Elder Scrolls Online is making big changes in the upcoming Blackwood Chapter. Most notably, players will now have the option to let a Companion tag along on their adventures. The Companion System has been a big deal in the ESO community since its announcement in January, with players worried about balance, whether Companions will […]
Don’t Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro And The Joy Of Anime Facial Expressions
I love anime that aren’t afraid to experiment with animation styles, shows and films that don’t consider themselves constrained by traditional means. It’s one of the most diverse animation mediums on the planet – for better or worse – and studios take that identity and run with it as a slate of new shows arrives […]
Interview: Valve On Why Half-Life Alyx Could Only Be Made In VR
Valve is the sort of studio that will only create new entries in its beloved franchises if they feel truly necessary. Each new project must be a step forward, a justified expansion that does something new in the medium instead of retreading old ground simply to advance a narrative cliffhanger. This is the philosophy that […]
Miranda’s Butt Shots Might Be Removed, But What’s With Liara’s Boobs In The Mass Effect Remasters?
I really want to like the Mass Effect remasters. The original trilogy, particularly Mass Effect 2, is home to some of my favourite stories and characters in the entire history of gaming, and although I’ve played them multiple times, it’s been a while since I last explored Rannoch, Thessia, and the rest. It feels like […]
