I haven’t gotten a chance to play it in PSVR but this is the first game that’s ever made me want to play in VR. Read more

Controls fine, although your character’s speed is a bit arbitrarily slow. A small thing that make dodging feel really dangerous. Rushing by something only to hear the claw swipe behind you is rough! Read more

I will have initial impressions today and a formal review later in the week. Read more

Definitely not. I think it’s important to assume good faith. I didn’t particularly have issues with this AGDQ overall and I don’t think many people meant to offend. But I also have been following speedrunning for a long time. Read more

I think there’s merit to feelings all around. The majority of speedrunners I’ve spoken to are smart, enthusiastic, and totally easy to chat with. I admire their passion and love what they do. Read more

I’m truly glad to hear that. I have a few games that helped during rough times as well. Read Only Memories definitely has a lot in it that can be uplifting. Read more

You can toggle the voices on and off. I recommend giving them a try if you play. The principle cast has some very solid voice work. Read more

Definitely one of the better quests in that game. My personal favorite is In Hushed Whispers. Read more

The Deep Roads themselves are definitely the weak link here. Like the Fade is for the Circle Tower. But I think the story of this quest is one of the most interesting and involved in the entire series. Read more

It’s definitely not my preferred choice either. I think a really pragmatic character could see having golems as big boon to their army but I think the cost is far too high. Read more

I’m pretty interested. Zelda looks absolutely fantastic and I’d love to really get into the new Splatoon. I have mixed feelings towards Nintendo and my last console for them was the GameCube but I’m genuinely interested in getting a Switch. Read more

It was top of my personal list. Titanfall 2 has some of the smartest design I’ve ever seen in a shooter. Read more

I have. Hooked me right from the moment that Kaine told Weiss he was a dumbass. Read more
