    Discussion What Are You Playing Right Now?

    I've "completed" playing Animal Well, an indie metroidvania developed by Billy Basso, and published by Bigmode. The game is nominated for best indie title in this year's TGAs, and it would probably take about 8~10 hours playing blindly to reach the credits rolling. Overall, I'd say it's a...

    News [PCGamer] Reflector Entertainment Lays Off 18% of employees

    Well, I suppose we'll learn more when journalists follow up on the story, as opposed to a Youtuber's take on a Google Translation of another Youtuber. The productivity component is likely tied to what Reflector announced regarding the layoffs. As, if you don't have any work for your employees...

    Discussion This might be the best looking turn based RPG game youve ever seen

    News Team Asobi win Golden Joystick Studio of the Year, while Wukong wins GOTY

    Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were referring to all awards where there was a component of public voting.

    News Team Asobi win Golden Joystick Studio of the Year, while Wukong wins GOTY

    Popular vote only accounts for 10% of the weight for TGA awards. While that does give it an advantage, it would also need to win a good percentage of the voting jury.

    Discussion What Are You Playing Right Now?

    Romancing Saga 2 is on my wishlist to pickup. The last JRPG I played was FFXVI. Next will probably be Metaphor. I also have Ni no Kuni and Octopath Traveler sitting in my library that I haven't gotten around to starting yet. I also have the new Yakuza games, which I hear are a pretty funny take...

    Xbox Avowed | New Previews are Coming Up

    Interestingly, most of the previews I've read say the game plays better than it looks in gameplay clips. The general consensus from the latest four hour preview was that although it didn't do anything incredible, most of it is a pretty serviceable RPG. I don't get the vibes that it'll be an...

    Discussion A wireless PSVR2 would be a good idea

    VR is still a bit of a tough sell, due to the comfort factor associated with extended use, and smaller portfolio of available games.

    News Lego Horizon Adventure sales are not looking good...

    From what I also understand, Sony seems to be doing pretty well at the moment. Though, I see there's sometimes a bit of negative sentiment about their business on the forum.

    News Helldivers 2 Reaches 15 Million Players

    In many regards, I respect your commitment to and adoration of live service offerings among gaming communities which often perceive this style of game very negatively. They're not really my cup of tea, but I hope you'll continue to have options which suit your tastes.

    Discussion The new 5090 is rumored to cost around 2000 dollars.

    Haha, true. It is always tough to rush to keep up GPU series to GPU series. You can probably still get a decent trade in on a 4090 though.
