Rookie Mistakes in Remnant: From the Ashes and How to Avoid Them
As I wrote in this story, I've been a gamer for almost 50 years. Needless to say, I have played thousands of games for hundreds of thousands of hours. So, it's not too often that I am blown away by a new game. The last time I had this level of excitement was probably the original Demon Souls.

My Iron Vow
I have always loved writing!" says pretty much everyone here. It's no less true for me. I was one of those kids who often enjoyed writing stories as much as, if not more than, watching TV or going outside to play with my friends. It was fun and enjoyable, and occasionally offered a release from pent-up feelings that I didn't want to express elsewhere. It was also one of the few things that I felt I did reasonably well.

5 Backstory Ideas for Your Paladin in Dungeons and Dragons (D&D)
The Paladin is like a mixture of Cleric and Fighter, they can serve on the frontline, with high Armor Class and Hit Points, or they can serve as an additional healer, using their spells and Lay on Hands abilities to help keep their allies alive. Paladins are also high damage dealers, able to use their Smite ability to lay out quite a bit of damage. They have to balance this with limited spell slots, and the Paladin does have some utility spells to accent their group. Now it’s time to come up with a few quick backstory ideas to help bring your character to life. Here are five intriguing ideas to use in your game, or to build off of to create a unique character you’ll love to play.

Cyberpunk 2077 redefines sci-fi literature
Philip K. Dicks changed science fiction with the 1968 novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. In reality, the novel was ahead of its time, and when he died, Dicks was not a celebrated writer. In 1968 society couldn’t fathom the idea of mechanical humanoids, so closely resembling people that only an empathy test could separate man from machine. It wasn’t until 1982, when Ridley Scott turned Dick’s original story into the movie Bladerunner, that audiences began to conceptualize a future where technology turned our own perception on its head. Some argue that it was Philip K. Dicks that gave birth to the entire cyberpunk genre. Cyberpunk is an infamous subgenre of science fiction, and it tends to focus on a society that is high tech, but low quality of life. Societies often ruled by unscrupulous mega-corporations, where even advanced technology can’t make up for rampant poverty, food shortages and drug addiction. As a genre, cyberpunk got its start during the new wave science fiction movement of the late 60’s and 70’s and while Philip K. Dicks and Ridley Scott earned coveted spots as purveyors, they aren’t formally the creators.
