Mass Effect Andromeda Review
Released: March 21, 2017 Genre: Third-Person RPS First Impression: "Jesus, are those the faces?" The first modern video game I played was the original Mass Effect, around ten years ago now. Since then the title's exploded, with sequels, books, merch, and the like following in the wake of its success. But the trouble with ongoing, consistent success is complacency--and you can see where that got the designers of Mass Effect 3, with its lame (original) ending barely bothering to acknowledge the amount of effort you put in to the entire damn game. That being said, I still played through Mass Effect 3 like... 4 or 5 times, one after the other, using different characters--and therefore different choices--each time. This, I thought, was the strongest point of the Mass Effect games: where its sister title Dragon Age abandoned the idea of carrying over choices and progress from previous titles at "Dragon Age 2: Errands in Town", Mass Effect kept with it.

10+1 Dungeon Master Tips From The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Inspiration for the Dungeon Master is as great a necessity as a full health / mana bar is for your video game character; without it, there just ain’t much you’re gonna get done. DMs should have a high (passive) perception skill to notice all the places where inspiration may be found. For me, that includes video games.

Hitman Out of the Shadows
I want to start of by saying that I am a HUGE fan of the game series. Having played all titles (including the addictive 'Hitman GO'), I dread to think how many hours I spent trying to achieve the rank of 'Silent Assassin'. Sneaking and skulking in the shadows, stalking and inevitably stealthily taking down my targets were par for the course. An ingredient the movies just couldn't capture.

Main Causes of VR Simulation Sickness and Ways to Avoid It
VR has become popular among gamers since it was first introduced because it gives them a more immersive playing experience, and there is a plethora of choices from which they can choose. While it’s not in everyone’s price range, VR can make you feel as if you’re in the game itself. As a lifelong gamer, the idea is exciting, but the hefty price tag is enough to bring me back to my senses. I would also need to have a beast of a PC to run it.
