His Scrap Gun is potent and easy to wrap one’s head around with its vast spread and compact nature. And players can let loose with his Whole Hog Ultimate, which will pin players against one of the many walls in a given map, or push them over a cl
Everyone has that one game they must keep at arm’s length, lest its wiles tempt them back into another multi-hour, multi-day, multi-week session. For me, that’s Klei Entertainment’s Oxygen Not Included. I love how it combines a creative sci-fi direction with real-world physics and thermodynamics. It perfectly nails the right balance of mechanics and flavor to keep me sucked in forever. And with a new update having been released, I have an excuse to go back once again. Oxygen Not Included is my digital lotus fruit. But I am not Odysseus. I lack the willpower to resist. So once again, I return, a lack of oxygen forming the bars of a prison built for me. And what a joyous prison it

I just witnessed Joel swear that everything he told Ellie about the Fireflies was true, which means I’m currently midway through Left Behind, and will be starting up on The Last of Us Part II this weekend. Once I get started with this series, I can’t stop. I also have Scorn, the H.R. Giger-influenced horror game, installed on my PC and am just waiting for nightfall to begin my journey past disturbingly anatomical alien architect
Pharah’s playstyle in Overwatch 2 is fairly simple; she excels from the skies, raining damage from above with her long-range explosive Rocket Launcher. While there’s a bit of a learning curve when it comes to her flight, this also makes her tough to hit, giving players a nice safety net. Her attacks yield AoE splash damage, so accuracy isn’t that important, though she does deal more damage if she lands her shots directly onto an en
Overwatch 2 Esports 2 is a free-to-play shooter, which has picked up some popularity with its recent release.

I’m still on a Yakuza hiatus, but I’m done with Tales of Arise and onto the next JRPG – Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Confession time – I’ve never finished a Final Fantasy. I played (and modded) a boat load of 15 and loved it, but didn’t really have time to commit while I was juggling university, work, and the student paper. I dabbled in the older ones but never stuck around long enough, and 14’s UI gave me a headache so I went back to Elder Scrolls Online. So if there’s anything glowing I can say about 7 Remake, it’s that I’m confident I’ll finish it, because I’m adoring it so
Playing as Widowmaker is all about laying down the damage. This is best done with the sniper rifle rather than the assault rifle, that is because the sniper does more damage . You can charge up the damage of the sniper rifle to help get one-shot kills for headshots, or just charge it up a fraction to fire quicker but do less dam

I’m always playing 50 different things, and promising to get back to some long RPG I started months ago. Jade is usually reviewing a JRPG or three. But not this week. This week, it’s all about Sco
