I was married before Tinder came out, which is fine, but Tinder produced my Favorite Internet Thing in 2015 with this: I can’t say I was waiting with bated breath – while I had dumped a lot of hours into Fallout 3, I took a pass on New Vegas and have never ventured into… Continue reading
Just drop me out in the world and I’m gonna explore. Give me a weapon and I’ll pick it up and use it on anything that attacks me. I will die a lot but I will figure things out. I will find your dungeons and I will meet your boss. I will be back. Faster… Continue reading
Imagine that you’ve spent your entire life training for something and then you learn that those skills could become absolutely useless? I’m not talking about Liberal Arts, but the well-respected act of English thievery. Ah, the grace of breaking-and-entering. The beauty of hacking a computer hooked directly into a bank account. The majesty of hitting a robot with a… Continue reading
There sure are a lot of souls out there. Some dark, others titan, some that belong to a demon and now those that are… dungeon. I’m not sure why I want them for myself, but they do make me stronger. I need to get stronger to defeat all the minions inside the dungeon so I… Continue reading
Monster contracts have been my favorite quests so far in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Mainly because I just want an excuse to explore the world and discover something new. Preferably that something new is a hideous new creature or foe that I’ve never had the pleasure of fighting before. It’s time to get to… Continue reading
I had a friend once. His name was Sproggi and he got me into all sorts of trouble. Staying straight-edge was near impossible when Sproggi’s antics included imprisoning me in his realm and sending me on suicide missions over and over. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the discovery of new items… Continue reading
Initially, I was intimidated by The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Aside from just being behind by never finishing the other games, the controls were daunting. I never felt comfortable in The Witcher 2. It seemed like other players adapted in previous games and I wasn’t going to be left behind on Round 3. This time… Continue reading

Heavy narrative and slow character progression is for books, not video games. Video games are about exploring exciting and unfamiliar worlds and mashing buttons until everything explodes like a pinata filled with candy. Bloodborne is a video game. A video game filled with bloody pinatas. Video games are more than welcome to try their hands… Continue reading
I’ve always wanted to run into a random dungeon with spells blazin’, but let’s face it that’s just never been a great option. Either the dungeon is too easy or your fantastical spells and weaponry are too weak. Ziggurat may have it figured out, though. It combines the polished dungeon crawler rogue-lite formula and successfully… Continue reading
I’ve always been a fan of fairy tales and folklore. As a child, and even still, I’ve liked the idea that there were vast secret worlds hidden around us in plain sight. Worlds containing the sìdheans (fairy hills) within Celtic mythology or the silly “fairytales are real” plot behind the TV show Grimm. You could only… Continue reading
