Being a Dungeon Master Part 3:
No matter what the setting or system, one thing every campaign needs is a good villain. A campy moustache twirler or femme fatale is good in an improvisational pinch but one needs to build a better villain and some point and introduce them, perhaps by having them be the underling of a more powerful foe. The villain arguably the most important NPC in your entire campaign, they likely exert the most influence on the PCs and as we will see later, they are just as crucial to the adventuring party as the individual members. Today we will look at three aspects that I feel help to make a bastard more dastardly. An antagonist must be relatable, they should have a cool lair, and if they are going to be a credible threat, they should have goals and a plan.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Xenoblade Chronicles on the Nintendo Wii was one of my all time favorite games, probably in my top three, even. I couldn't wait for a sequel, but unfortunately I was among the 7.7 billion people to not get a Wii U, and so I missed out on Xenoblade Chronicles X. But then I got a Switch in 2017, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was the first game I bought, alongside Breath of the Wild. And it was... alright. I returned it a few months later because frankly I just wasn't that into it. And then three years later, the Xenoblade Remaster came to the Switch and I played that all summer. And I thought, maybe I should give 2 another chance. So I did, and it's been a trip. Here are my thoughts. There will be spoilers.

The First Boss Complex
First impressions are the most important. Someone said this, at some point, and they were right, at least in most instances. This is why most media, including video games, try to start with the best foot forward. Murder mysteries showcase a resolved case or a murder in action. Horror movies tend to start with a scare or an eerie introduction. With video games this means a strong tutorial section or a cinematic masterpiece of a cutscene to get the story going.

Why Is Bugsnax So Addictive?!
Bugsnax is an adventure, sort of Pokemon collection type game created by Young Horses for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, and Mac platforms. The game's entire premise is to run around on an island, collecting creatures that are sort of a fusion between real-life animals and… food. This is a weird game, throughout its entirety, you encounter weirdly delectable creatures which at times seem too goofy and at times feel beautiful even. The game was one of the few that were shown during Sony's presentation in 2020, and while it raised some eyebrows as to the quality of PlayStation games; it has ADDICTED its entire player base to keep on playing. The game has gotten mostly positive reviews ever since it first released in November of 2020, so what makes the game so addictive? Is it the peculiar world you're put into? Is it the monotone storytelling and joyful characters you encounter in this adventure? Or is it just the simplicity of collecting weird food and animal fusion creatures? Let's dive deeper into it.
