  1. Destiny 2: Lightfall Review -- What Comes After the Fall?

    It would be disingenuous to argue that the Destiny of today is the same Destiny that Bungie released in 2014 (or even when Destiny 2 released in 2017). It is well documented how the original direction for the story changed in the eleventh hour and Bungie launched the game narratively adrift, cobbled together partially using fragments of their original plan.

  2. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Review -- A World of Possibility

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s ...
  5. Kirby and the Forgotten Land Review -- The end of the world never looked so cute

    At this point, we can all recognize the post-apocalyptic setting. It is frequently featured in dystopian narratives where civilization has collapsed, cities are abandoned and retaken by nature, resources are scarce, and order is replaced with lawlessness. These are the familiar staples of a genre that has, especially in recent years, been heavily used across various forms of media. Kirby and the Forgotten Land ...
