Why do game studios insist on mini-games?
If we compare statistics today and back at the beginning of the 2000's we can notice how rapidly video game development went ahead. Indeed there were games that completely changed the concept of video gaming such as Half-Life, GTA: San Andreas, and Assassin’s creed, but the hype we see today is nothing compared to these ones.

Days Gone Review
I want to make a habit of reviewing certain things that I am playing or watching in the future. This may include things that have been out for some time or even brand new releases. In this case, I am reviewing something that has been out for about a year now. Days Gone is an open-world survival/horror game set in Oregon two years after the zombie (infected) apocalypse occurs. I remember seeing the reveal at E3 the year it was announced, and it completely blew me away. If you don't know, I am a sucker for anything zombie-related. And yes, I still watch the Walking Dead. After seeing that we would take on massive hordes of zombies that can move faster than the living, I knew we were in for a treat. I was prepared to pick it up on day 1, but I began to see mediocre reviews. This led to me putting it on hold for a while, but I am so glad that I decided to dive into it. If you haven't played this game and want to remain completely spoiler-free, play the game, then come back and read my thoughts...

5 Tips For Playing Better Vigilantes
The idea of a costumed hero who hides their true face behind a secret identity has a rich and varied history in our stories. Arguably beginning with the Scarlet Pimpernel in the early 1900s, the archetype also includes such famous characters as Zorro, The Shadow, The Phantom, and Batman. Playing such character in a traditional fantasy game has been difficult, but for those who wish to combine genres, Paizo gave us the Vigilante base class in Ultimate Intrigue!

"Dummy Apps"
Hey everyone! Since Covid struck and with a lot of people stuck with no job there are a lot more "paying apps" on google play store. How many of you have actually gotten paid though? I myself have been trying to earn money with these apps since last year, only to be let down when close to the cash out point. Knife Bounty let me get up to $95.02 pretty quickly, then abruptly stopped giving me cash. For about a month I continued playing, not wanting to believe the cash out was never going to come. Whenever I should have received cash all I got was apples. I wrote numerous complaints to the developer but received no response. Then there was Word Juicy who glitched out, then suddenly disappeared from both my phone and google play store all on the same day when I was less than a dollar away from the $100 cash out requirement. I believe it now goes under the name Word Sweety. That developer assured me I would get paid once meeting the cash out requirements, but then made that impossible. There was also Lucky Dollar who almost allowed me to reach cash out, after a month or so of playing faithfully every day, anticipating the $50 cash out. I was only .06 away from $50 when that game also disappeared from my phone and google play store. The Idle games all lured me in with rapid cash rewards, even allowed me to meet the cash out point on one of there games, only to inform me of all the other requirements, ( such as needing to reach a level that was way out of reach ) and then it to vanished from the play store. Word Connect ( the original ) was one of my favorite games, but it too let me down. When I reached $90 it started paying me .01 every 15 -20 levels so that cash out was never reached. All these apps bombarded me with ads, while also infecting my phone with adware viruses.

The truth behind the toxicity within the smash community
This is a very interesting topic indubitably, the smash community is indeed toxic but how does it differ from other fandoms? Depending on some look at it this could be a good thing. One reason is everything has its pros and cons, after all it's not perfect. There's a saying that goes don't fix what ain't broke and if it isn't broken then that doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement. Regardless of the matter there's a deeper meaning within the community that needs to be exposed.

20 More Characters that I want in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Since the first article like this did so well, I thought that it would be a good idea for another list. But, like most sequels, I went bigger and (possibly) better for the second one. Now there are still so many franchises that don't have representation, so that made this a lot harder. Also, with the inclusion of Min Min, that makes it possible for the spirits to be in the game as fighters which opens up a ton of possibilities for fighters. I know that some are impossible, like Goomba, so I tried to keep the choices realistic. Now last time I did one of these lists there were two Nintendo franchises that got mentioned, so I did include a few more Nintendo franchises. But there are a lot of third party games included as well. There are a lot of characters on this list that would be more swordsmen in a game that already has a ton of swordsmen, but my list my rules. Throughout this list, I try to make good arguments for all of the characters. From move set ideas to creative concepts for characters, even release dates, and for all of these entries, I think that the arguments made are very interesting. I also did keep most the same rules of the last list as well. No Assist Trophies, no Sora because of Disney being stingy, and most entries of the list have a good relationship with Nintendo, with two exception. Now enough dilly dallying, there is a lot to cover, so on to the list!

Some things never get old, they say. This can be very much true about certain games, that have been part of the childhood of literally every single millennial. With the development of technologies and the introduction of computers as well as instruction, often video games, people got addicted to them. Perhaps due to the fact that video games were new and everyone wanted to experience some extra feelings while playing in front of the screens and watching different animations and graphics.
