Playing Games Wrong and Breaking the System

I’ve started playing games wrong, and I’ve got to say it’s feeling pretty right. This won’t be a new idea to some people, especially those who’re deep into achievements. But it’s something I recommend for everybody, if only to shake things up at a time when games aren’t spending much time rewriting the rules. The biggest games are so slick now. You barely have to play them. They put the maximum amount of energy into making everything look epic and…

Games Are Getting Too Damn Big

Death Stranding 2 has a photo mode that will influence the way the story plays out. It also has in-game concerts. The attention to detail is incredible. But come on Kojima, I have a life. Games are getting too damn big. I’ve been playing Final Fantasy VII Rebirth since March. It’s one of the best games of the generation and I don’t see that changing. But its need to completely dominate my free time is frustrating. I’ve enjoyed every single…

Overwatch and the Misery of Mismanagement

You don’t need an insider knowledge to know Overwatch has been mismanaged. It’s still nice to know it for definite. Jason Schreier’s new book on Blizzard goes into some detail on the inner workings of Overwatch. He shared a shorter version on Reddit. The further abridged version is that the team behind making Overwatch such a success were cautious in hiring new people in case it changed their company culture. They tried to feed the original Overwatch and make an…

Finally! Horizon Zero Dawn Playable Again

The panic is over. Horizon Zero Dawn is going to be re-released with shinier graphics. At seven years old, it was getting pretty dicey. It would be all too easy to be snarky about this one, and I wouldn’t be alone. Although there are people defending it – and why shouldn’t they? – I’m not alone in finding this release to be both bizarre and unnecessary. Even more so than The Last of Us Part 1. Horizon still plays as…

Final Fantasy Found Its Footing – Now It Needs Fans

Square Enix announced is financials this morning and the outlook isn’t so hot. HD Games – including Final Fantasies XIV and 7 Rebirth – underperformed to the tune of ¥8.1 billion ($57m). This is terrible news for a franchise which has finally found its footing. Those two Final Fantasy games are the best the franchise has been in years. Rebirth, although I’m biased, will likely be this generation’s Red Dead Redemption for me. A game so big, so high quality…

Funko Fusion Review

Funko Fusion is a unique gaming experience that brings together iconic characters from various franchises into a single, open-world adventure. As a fan of both Funko Pop! collectibles and video games, I was eager to dive into this title, but my experience was somewhat mixed. The core mechanics are very similar to Lego games, which makes sense because much of the team had previously worked on some of the Lego titles, however it’s not executed nearly as well. The Good:…
