full offense but some of you weren't harsh enough on kiwami 3.

are you the same people that saw Lost Judgment's fake rape accusation plot and said "this is fine" or?

Come one, come all, my review of Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties.

The original Yakuza 3 is one of my faves and this remake only really gets marks for the original story and none of the new content.

We've reached a new level of rape culture apologia for the franchise, somehow moreso than Lost Judgment.

Edie and I have been rewatching Veronica Mars (her first time) and we're late in season 3... I can't wait for her to get to The Events in the miniseries and experience the horrors

late but I reviewed perfect tides: station to station and its soooo profound and beautiful!
REVIEW: Perfect Tides: Station to Station

"Within is profound prose that uses an unconventional approach to game narrative to tell a divine coming-of-age tale that’ll be relatable to many."
Perfect Tides: Station to Station Review — A divine coming-of-age
Perfect Tides: Station to Station is a divine coming of age narrative sequel to the 2022 adventure game, exploring college life and romance.

Latest review is Nioh 3, where I fell on the lower spectrum of review scores.

For me, it sits somewhere in the same camp as Rise of the Ronin, a very competent game where the spectacle is undeniably there, but too bogged down by an overabundance of loot and open world activities to truly stand out
REVIEW: Nioh 3

"Nioh 3 has thrilling combat, character specialisation and spectacle that are the tried and true staples for both a Team Ninja game and a Nioh game in and of itself."

Nioh 3 Review - Good is not enough
Nioh 3 is a solid and stylish return to Team Ninja's iconic series, but it also hardly strives for the high heights of its predecessors.

This is the second interview with James Bendon in a week that has either only briefly touched on or completely ignored erasing First Nations people from a game set in Australia.

There have been numerous conflicting claims that James has made about excluding Aboriginal Culture. Why does no one care?

I was absolutely enveloped by Cairn last week. It's an incredibly profound experience that is an exercise in exploring stubbornness and being headstrong—both how that's a valuable trait and a significant character flaw.

I also think it's an early contender for GOTY and performance of the year?
