  • Man, I so wanted to love this game! Instead I just liked it. The graphics, the world, music, even the story are so well made and interesting to look at and explore. I loved the mining town at the beginning or the town with the ghost house! The only thing holding this game back is the somewhat stale level design between the interesting places you explore. They feel like flat 2d Zelda dungeons with a handful of frustrating design decisions to make them harder and take longer to finish. Still, I will probably get the DLC to show support for the devs and the interesting world they created!

    Edit: Jesus fucking christ! I watched the trailer after commenting and didn’t see they made a Harvest Moon/Stardewvalley style DLC! Day one purchase!


  • No Mans Sky still to this day sells pretty good. Sure, they don’t sell a million copies every week but Hello Games is pretty small and they can comfortably keep pumping out content even if they only sell, say, 15k per month. And given how NMS is still talked about so frequently, how they launched for the Switch recently (my second copy btw) and how well received the VR was, I think that number is pretty reasonable.








  • The rating is 77. 77 is the lowest rating a game in the main series of Assassins Creed has received. This means the other games have 78 or up. How in the world is this considered bad? For an entire fucking franchise? Not a fan of the series or anything but I just think it’s ridiculous how this is an actual headline! Don’t the journalists have nothing else to report on regarding video games and the industry? Layoffs? Toxic people and business practices? Microtransactions?

    Nah, instead they go: “pretty good (but not great) game is slightly less good than other pretty good (but not great) games in an overall pretty good (but not great) franchise.” Ugh!



  • It’s all just buzzwordsalad at this point.

    Who the fuck genuinely cares about a digital plot of land? The only reason stuff like this attracts people is the hope to make money, and therefore only people who only care about the monetary aspect play games like Legacy.

    I highly suggest the YouTube channel “Jauwn”! The dude plays nft games “frome the perspective of a gamer”, so he tries to give those games a fair shot (although he is clearly biased against nfts in general). To no one’s surprise each and every nft game is just a grift to mine money in the pockets of idiots who think they are smarter than the rest.
