When the grind was bad
So you've done it, you've played Dragon Warrior 1, you've beaten it. It took you a little while, but the grinding* paid off. Heck, it was even enjoyable. Now you're thinking, 'oh man, there's a sequel?"

When the grind was good
JRPGs, where do we start? A lot of us start with the popular Dragon Quest series, the first few of which had the title Dragon Warrior.

Hunt: Showdown, A Review
I figured I would take a break from all my serious writing to complete a quick review for Hunt: Showdown. Recently (as in this morning) I finished writing a heavy piece called "The Owl Spirit" for one of the lovely challenges Vocal runs. It was depressing, dark, but had a nice ending. I felt that to help get rid of some of that negative energy I would review this excellent game to replace some of that bad energy.

Best of Switch Indies – 23 Jan 2022
My regular readers may have noticed a missing round-up last week. No, I wasn’t being lazy; it’s just that there was practically nothing good to be found out of the ~35 games released on the Nintendo Switch eShop. There were 2 notable mentions in ASTRONEER and Demoniaca: Everlasting Night, but they didn’t quite make the cut. I won’t stop you from buying them, though!

Dying Light Review
Almost anyone who’s even looked at a video game in the last 15 years could name a zombie-based game off the top of their head. The late 2000s and almost the entire of the 2010s were a resurgence period for the zombie genre, with Call of Duty acting as frontrunners in the genre after the surprise hit of the ‘Nacht der Untoten’ level in World at War, which only started out as a bonus level for after you’d completed the main campaign, but then went on to spawn several DLC maps, as well as being a regular game mode in future instalments of the franchise. With this, the decade after was nothing but zombies. Every big publisher probably has at least a few zombie games under its belt. Personally, thinking back to Call of Duty zombies gives me major anxiety as I was terrified of it but all of my friends would play it after school and I’d reluctantly join and pretend I was having fun. But I digress.

Donkey Kong Country (Super Nintendo
There is an age old debate in gaming: What is the most important aspect? Is it how fluid the controls are? Is it the storyline? Does none of that matter as long as it’s pretty to look at? Different people have different ideas of what matters most to them in this beautiful pass-time of ours. And they’re all valid outlooks to have.

Best of Switch Indies – 09 Jan 2022
With 35+ new releases on the Nintendo Switch eShop last week, you’d be forgiven for thinking things were returning to normal after the holidays. However, the number of quality games was still relatively low in comparison. With that said, I did still find 3 games that are more than deserving of being added to my Best Of Switch indies list.

Kirby's Dreamland (Gameboy)
They say you always remember your first. Normally this is a phrase reserved for a first kiss, a first love, a first… well, you get the idea. But there are many firsts that a lot of people just can’t forget, myself included.

Best of Switch Indies – 02 Jan 2022
It’s been an understandably quiet Holiday period on the Nintendo Switch eShop, with only 41 games released over the previous 2 weeks combined. While most of them seem like absolute trash, 3 indie publishers thought they’d take a chance at getting between you and the rest of your presents.

2021’s Best Underrated Switch Indies
It’s the end of another year, but instead of showcasing the best games everyone has already bought, I thought I’d shine a light on 6 games that I feel have either flown under the radar or haven’t received the critical recognition they deserve.
