#12: The Outer Worlds 2 (PC): OW2 is better than the previous in visuals & combat, but not as good in story and compelling characters. I do think the story picked up significantly in the last Act. Overall, OW2 is a good WRPG that is just short of great. #gamesbeat2025

#11: Dispatch (PC): Adhoc Studios, a team of former Telltale devs, have created the best kind of Telltale, narrative driven experience you can get. Strong storytelling and voice acting made this experience an immediate play every time an episode dropped. #gamesbeat2025

You think Valve doesn't have a monopoly in the PC storefront market? What percentage would you say they'd need to have to consider it a monopoly in your opinion?

#10: The Outer Worlds (PC): For my replay of this game, I decided to do a melee-focused, Dum-Dum character that turned out to be a lot of fun. Forgot how good the writing was in this game, and for my first doing the DLCs, they were both quality expansions. #gamesbeat2025

#9: Borderlands 4 (PC): I was concerned that Gearbox could no longer make a good Borderlands game after BL3 and TTW. Yet this is the second best Borderlands game, only BL2 is better. A very different tone in writing was necessary, which lead to a far superior story compared to BL3. #gamesbeat2025

#8: Borderlands 2 (PC): Ran through this one this time with the Gunzerker. Can I beat Borderlands 3 before Borderlands 4 launches? Probably not lol. #gamesbeat2025

Hardware - Nintendo Switch 2 unit sales are trending 77% ahead the time-aligned sales of the original Nintendo Switch.

#7: Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (PC): Probably beat this one faster than any Borderlands game. Did it in like 17 hours and at level 26. While someone never getting a single legendary to drop. Playing as Nisha was pretty fun. Onto the GOAT, Borderlands 2! #gamesbeat2025

I have somehow 100%'d this game on Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation. I don't know how it happened, I promise.

#6: Borderlands: GOTY Edition (PC): Kinda mad at myself for taking so long to get through this, but it was a bit of a slog compared to the other games in the franchise. Onto The Pre-Sequel! #gamesbeat2025
