Best Set Items In Diablo 2 Resurrected
There are many set items in Diablo 2 Resurrected, many of which are very powerful. Some of them can even replace some powerful runes. If you want to go after these green pieces and play fashion endgame, these pieces are worth your time.

Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis - The Breakdown
There are many layers to the landmark video game phenomenon that was the Final Fantasy VII Remake, the multi-part reimagining of Square Enix’s 1997 classic. The Remake project introduced an eager fanbase to some ground-breaking new improvements and upgrades to the timeless formula established by its predecessor, including a brand new combat system, mind-blowing next-gen graphics and some subtle (and some not so subtle) additions to the original game’s narrative.

I'm Not Judging You (I Just Want To RP)
I've been playing RPGs for a pretty long time, now, and I like to think I've gotten pretty good at them. Whether it's gathered round a table with dice, or dressed up in costume and staying in-character for a LARP, I've played all kinds of systems and genres, styles and kinds. One thing every game has had in common, though, is that there's never enough time at the table or venue to really fit all the story in. As such, I like to reach out to my fellow players to put together downtime scenes where we can have conversations, work out plots, and grow the story beyond what a single session a week would allow.

Elden Ring Review: A Fistful of Frenzy
I’d like to get this out of the way up top—Elden Ring is easily one of the greatest video games ever made. From the game’s rich and dense open world, cryptic narrative, and (mostly) tight combat, to its better-than-ever multiplayer functionality and largely optional difficulty, Elden Ring is satisfyingly complete and one hell of a bang for your hard-earned buck. The action RPG is a thrilling next step for long-time fans of Hidetaka Miyazaki’s and FromSoftware’s work, while simultaneously providing a jump-in point for series newcomers. That’s not to say the game is without its flaws and inconsistencies, but I’ll get into the details below. Although it may sound hyperbolic, Elden Ring, is the culmination of everything From has done to date, and is truly one of the most outstanding examples of the art of gaming I have ever experienced.

The Blackguard
His cell was quite damp. Water dripped quietly down the slimy cobbles of the walls and pooled onto the worn stones of the floor. The iron bars were etched with complex golden glyphs to prevent his patron from speaking to him and to keep his powers from getting him out. The dread and guilt haunted him as well as the awful nightmares, day and night. When Vol’mar’Ek entered his life several decades ago with a promise to remove these fears and his remorse over the loss of his wife.

The Ascetic Wizard
The man was not what any of them had expected. He sat atop a stone plinth, his legs folded beneath him, his eyes closed. The breeze tugged his long hair and beard, and his skin was tanned dark by his time in the sun. He wore simple garments that were beginning to fray around the edges, and a necklace of large, carved beads.

Did I Play in the First Roleplaying Game EVER?
Despite the fact that I have attended GenCon for more years than you have probably been alive and that I was the world’s top-ranked player of Classic RPGA tournaments for fifteen years (1985-2000), I’ve never really thought of myself as an early player of Dungeons & Dragons and, by extension, modern roleplaying games. After all, my first Dungeons & Dragons experience was in a camper in the parking lot of University of Wisconsin Parkside the night before GenCon XII in 1979, after I had already graduated from law school. And I had passed by a few groups playing the game during my college and law school years. So, while I was not at the leading edge of first players, I just tried to do my best playing classic tournaments, playing around 600 different characters in 460 tournaments in a wide variety of different game systems and settings, and winning 235 of those tournaments.

Horizon Forbidden West
It is 2022 and one game, another action open world RPG, is making a big impression on gamers. The rich environments it displayed, the diverse combat systems, the engaging lore and world sucked players in and everyone who has played it already are clamoring for a sequel. That game was Eldin Ring. Man Horizon just can not seem to catch a break when it comes to releasing a game, like it is doomed as a franchise to be overshadowed. Which is a shame as honestly I loved this game, though it certainly is still not perfect.
