Let’s talk reviews some more. In the last post, I touched upon how I have different standards when I review indie games, especially those that are made by devs with less than twenty-five people. I know I put a lower number on it yesterday, but I do think anything up to twenty-five is very small.… Continue Reading
I’m writing even more about how I review things, specifically games. Here is the post I wrote about it yesterday. Today, I want to talk about how I have different criteria for different games. I don’t think that’s controversial, but what do I know? I’m sure there are plenty of people who think you should… Continue Reading
I’m still talking about reviews because I can. And because I find it an interesting topic. I detoured into what I disliked about Lies of P (Round8 Studio/NEOWIZ) in yesterday’s post. It wasn’t completely on topic, but it wasn’t completely off it, either. The part that wasn’t off topic was that reviewing is so subjctive.… Continue Reading
This is the second post on how I review things. Here is the first post I wrote about it yesterday. I really want to make it clear that when I review something, it’s more with the eye of what I like and don1’t like than what I think is objectively ‘good’. One of the funniest… Continue Reading
Let’s talk about reviews. Or rather, how I review things. I tihnk reviews in general should not be taken too seriously because oftentimes (maybe most of the time?), it comes down to a question of taste. Let’s be real. There are a glut of games out there. So many games. All the games! In the… Continue Reading
Yes, this is my third post for my official review of Spells & Secrets (Alchemist Interactive). Why? Because I still have things to say about it. Here is the second post in my trilogy of review posts. This will probably be the last one, but who can say for sure? At the end of the… Continue Reading
I have talked about the game, Spells & Secrets (Alchemist Interactive), before. In fact, I have, apparently, done an official review of it. This will be part two of that now that I have officially beaten the game. The first part of the review (which I have no recollection of writing) is here. I’ve also… Continue Reading
More about indie games and AAA games. Side note: And, yes, this is probably the earliest I have done this. Sony is talking about buying FromSoft’s parent company. Not because of FromSoft, per se, but that’s just a cherry on top of the deal. And it made me immediately worried because Sony looooooves themselves an… Continue Reading
I was musing about Triple A games vs. indie games in yesterday’s post. Today, the nomination for Geoff Keighley’s game awards came out, and there was much consternation per usual. One of the controversial issues was that Shadow of the Erdtree (FromSoft) was named for Game of the Year. Why? Because it’s DLC. There are… Continue Reading
I’ve been thinking about games that I buy. Or rather, when I buy games. I’m not someone who buys big games on day one. Side note: Yes, already. I want to preface this post by saying that when I talk about Triple A games, I am not referring to FromSoft games. I will buy any… Continue Reading
