Blue Prince this. Monster Hunter that. Meanwhile, THIS is my game of the year. I cannot wait for Demonschool. This trailer looks incredible.
It's true, demons can't stop you from hanging out with your friends. That's important now more than ever.

New trailer! New release window!! (Very real, we are so close to content complete.)

I can't stop playing Blue Prince. Not because I think it's incredible, but because I want to experience the moment when I understand why people think it's Game of the Year. Don't get me wrong; it's a fun game but I just haven't had THAT moment with it yet.

I reviewed South of Midnight - its deep, dark, and the perfect love letter to the South. Nestle it into the Southern Gothic pantheon with Eve's Bayou please.

Read the review 👇🏾👇🏾
I reviewed South of Midnight and I'm floored by it. It has some of the most beautiful level design and art around; the narrative is hauntingly strong and honors Southern Gothic literature perfectly. While the gameloop is repetitive, I never wanted to put it down.

My review:
REVIEW: 'South Of Midnight' Is A Love Letter To An Overlooked Community - But Why Tho?
Compulsion Games has created a love letter to the South, to its beauty and its stories in South of Midnight.

My most anticipated game in years coming to every platform except for the one I mainly play on is such a let down. Here’s hoping it works on the Steam Deck.

Makes me wonder if 2027, 2028, 2029, and 2030 will just be CD Projekt RED dropping game after game after game.
The Witcher 4 will release after 2026, says CD Projekt RED CFO Piotr Nielubowicz

Safe to say Monster Hunter Wilds is my current game of the year.

I love to theorize about movies, and I especially love taking hilariously wild swings on movies based on just one trailer. Here is that for #FantasticFour. It's so dumb... but kind of good, too.
