“Torn” is the word that comes to mind as I muse about Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
It is without question a fantastic game, and certainly a return to form for Bioware after many years of not being at their best.

Big thanks again to guest writer, Nina. Who sat down to a few sessions of scares, before flitting off for a month long holiday in Thailand!
When Until Dawn first released back in 2015, it was quickly considered the best-in-class thriller of its kind, especially in the mainstream space.
It makes sense, then, that Sony would want to put out a next-gen version of the game.

Until the Fusion Pro Wireless controller dropped into my post box I can safely say I’ve never thought about how a controller could be a work of art. I’ve had customisable controllers in the past, but I never really got on with changing weights and sticks. It just all seemed so faffy.
Programming back buttons, yes, that’s something Ive been able to get behind, more so when you can transfer a stick click to a button press, especially when its right next to a lazy, redundant finger.

If you remember the good old days of 2002, and were a fan of real-time strategy games, chances are you played Age of Mythology, a classic RTS from Ensemble Studios.
Fast forward 22 years, and it’s back with Age of Mythology Retold, a remaster that slaps on a fresh coat of paint – using the graphics engine from Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition – and it does an excellent job for anyone feeling nostalgic for those RTS days of old.

Studio Santa Monica’s God of War from 2018 is one of my favourite games in recent memory (despite what the dear editor of this esteemed site thinks of it), which they deftly followed up with God of War Ragnarok.
I sank numerous hours into the original game, featuring grizzled and rough-edged god Kratos (although he’s trying to find his softer side) and his son Atreus, and then did the same with the sequel in 2022.

I have always been a fan of RPG’s, including to a lesser degree JRPG’s. But I have never even looked at any of the Shin Megami Tensei titles. Like many games with Japanese roots, the over sexualised schoolgirl vibe has not been something I particularly like.
And on top of that, the batshit crazy storylines can be pretty overwhelming.

Disney Lorcana, for me, has been a bit of a curveball. It came to us out of the blue and at the outset seemed like a good idea. I mean that card game in The Witcher games was good, wasn’t it?
The premise makes sense, a deck building card game that draws on the multifaceted layers of the Disney catalogue. I’ve grown up on Disney, and so have my kids so we were keen to see where this went.

Welcome to the 2024 addition to Bethesda’s epic Elder Scrolls Online. ESO continues to be a game I return to on a regular basis.
A solid, grindy, MMORPG. I have covered a plethora of these add-on releases for the the base game, ESO: Tamriel Unlimited since 2015. I can’t help but feel that if you haven’t got into ESO by now then you probably never will.
