What is a lowly RPG-player to do? Well, this hub has a collection of guides that will walk you through everything from the unique progression system, to the curious enemy scaling, to the novel inheritance system....

Summary Dragon Agehas always emphasised choice. You make countless decisions throughout each playthrough that alter your standing with different characters and ultimately shape the world itself, and these choices — even the most miniscule — bleed into the sequels with little references and nods to the hero of old and their adventures.

Summary OneDragon Age: The Veilguardplayer made an incredibly interesting discovery over the weekend, a conspiracy theory board connecting every protagonist and their companions. Starting from the left, we have The Warden,i.e. the Hero of Ferelden, followed by Hawke, the Inquisitor, and Rook. But what’s especially interesting is that they all connect to a shadowy fifth figure. It’s unclear who this represents, but there are a couple of intriguing theories. The obvious one is that this fifth figure represents the inevitable Dragon Age 5....

I’ve only recently begun to realize that, despite what I’ve thought for most of my life, I might actually enjoy horror games after all. I’m not a fan of jumpscares – I have enough anxiety on my own without the added heart attack – but if you may creep me out and make me nervous, I might just be on board. That kind of horror is exactly what I saw at the Limited Run booth atPAX Westthis year....

Quick Links While for many their first introduction to the greaterShin Megami Tenseiseries was through Persona, the Shin Megami Tensei games are themselves a far different beast from the more contemporary school-life of Persona. Even funnier is that Persona is itself a subseries of Shin Megami Tensei. There are plenty of Shin Megami Tensei mainline games, though there are frankly just as many subseries as that, and countless games within each subseries to boot....

Summary Theme Hospital, Rollercoaster Tycoon, and Zoo Tycoon were all staples of my childhood. They gave me hours of enjoyment, a strange fascination with picking up guests and trying to kill them, and the inability to visit any real-world theme park or zoo (hospitals, not so much) without judging every facet of it.
