What 'Animal Crossing' Taught Me
Before I get into things you may be wondering, what is Animal Crossing? Well, here's a brief explanation. The first game of the ongoing series Animal Crossing came out in 2001 and is a "life" simulation game created by Katsuya Eguchi and developed by Nintendo. I say "life simulation" very loosely due to the fact all the non-playable characters are animals and well, I think you get it.

Character Magic
Dark Souls has managed to do things that other games haven’t been able to do. It’s a hard game. A punishing game and yet—it always manages to be fair.

Blacklich: A New Tool for Dungeon Masters
With the rapid rise of D&D, many are finding themselves in the role of Dungeon Master (or DM). As they are discovering, being a DM is a challenge. While the players only have to concentrate on their own characters, the DM needs to play the entire world. Where this challenge really becomes evident is in combat encounters. You often see DMs with multiple pages bookmarked across several reference guides so that they can flip between monster stats and abilities, ready to quickly cross reference spells and conditions, all while rolling dice, doing the math and keeping track of initiatives. It’s pretty crazy. Worst of all, what should be the most fast paced part of the game, gets bogged down and tedious.

'Resident Evil 2: REmake' - Good, but Overzealous
Can we accuse Capcom of selling out when Resident Evil 7: Biohazard was such a surprising success? Though I'd argue that Resident Evil 6: What the Fuck Is This? was certainly grounds for disenfranchisement. However, no game is without its flaws and critiquing a good game is not always shoving flowers up the developers ass. But a few bad mechanics doesn't necessarily weigh out the good and Resident Evil 2: REmake is certainly a contender to be one of the best remakes in the last decade.

'Pokemon Let's Go'
Pokemon took the world by storm in the 90s. I played Pokemon for the Gameboy Advance SP before the Nintendo DS, XL, or touch screen. That was when Gameboy Advance games worked on the SP and original Gameboy. I played the color version of these games. The color games were introduced with Gameboy Color, but that was for Red and Yellow. Pokemon Gold and Silver began the color versions when they premiered for the Gameboy Color around the late 90s. Later I played Pokemon Diamond.

My Experience with 'Fortnite'
If you haven't heard of Fortnite by now, I am not sure what fort you've been hiding in (pardon the cheap pun). Thousands upon thousands of players compete in Solo, Duo, Squad, and LTM modes every day in the hopes of getting a Victory Royale, or being the last one(s) standing, and as a player of Fortnite I can say from firsthand experience that it is quite intense being locked in this struggle for survival, whether it is in a firefight or a build battle. As with any video game, there will be those with insane skills (if you don't believe me, check out YouTube or Twitch to see skilled gamers do their thing) and those who are just starting the game for the first time ever. When I first started, I can say without a doubt, I was terrible, but after gaining some courage to actually fight and not hide behind bushes, I can safely say I improved (at least a little). What are some things I have learned in the time I have been playing this game? Well, I'll tell ya...

Steam Games Even I Would Play
As much as I love to play free phone games, it's hard for me to find ones that I would pay actual money for without crying over it the next day. The person I live with, on the other hand, loves games and begs for me to play. So, if you have someone who desperately wants you to play a game with them or try some out to see what you like, these are pretty laidback.

'Heroes of the Storm'
There are many characters from the Blizzard series that have made an appearance. There are also many characters that have not yet appeared. Since Overwatch is the only Blizzard game that I know well enough, I will start with the characters from that game.

Should Nintendo Be Working on a Pokémon MMO?
Ever since players got to choose from the original trio of Bulbasuar, Charmander and Squirtle in Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue, the world of Pokémon has evolved into a franchise unlike any other. Seven generations of the games have been released, with an eighth generation on the way, along with spin-off games diverting from the original format having also spawned over the years. It also holds a long running anime show, with over a thousand episodes and movies coming out every year, which is unprecedented for anything based on a computer game. The love for all the branches of the franchise is clear to see, so why have Nintendo not cashed in on the MMO (Massive Multiplayer Online) genre?
