The Dark Souls Series evokes emotions in me only these games can
My history with the Souls series goes way back; to 2012. Maybe 2013, I can’t honestly remember. But it was when on the Xbox 360, games with gold were still fairly new. Where, if you had an Xbox live gold subscription you got free games every month. And one of them happened to be the first Dark Souls game. Interested by the screenshots and what I had meagerly heard online, I wanted to give it a try. So, I got the game and began playing it. And after about 2 and a half hours, I was kind of all set with it. I had chosen the Knight class not knowing about the weight system, so my experience with the game was me slow walking around the Undead Burg, and barely being able to roll out of enemy attacks. I did manage to kill Tarus Demon, but the real enemy that stopped me was the first Baldur Knight that is blocking the knight shield. Stupid enemy to stop playing to, I know. But I was kind of in the mindset of: “I don’t really know what I’m doing so I’ll put it down for now and come back another time”. I remember watching a playthrough and getting some more of the basics down, but I never went back. I guess COD and other games that were hot took my priority. So that was my very first Souls experience; anti-climactic at best. And then March of 2015 happened. And we all know what game released that year.

5 Tips For Playing Neutral Characters
Roleplaying games allow us to take on the mantles of great heroes and villains, of wise wizards and noble knights, cunning sellswords and brutish barbarians. They allow us to tell stories in ways few other activities do. However, while it is easy to get caught up in discussions of Good and Evil, Law and Chaos as forces in the world, often times we forget about the fifth aspect of alignment; the Neutral option. For many of us, Neutral isn't an alignment component in and of itself, but an absence of alignment; a gray space we simply chose not to mark.

The Tale of The Bonsai, And The Fall of The Five Storms
The forest seemed to stretch on forever, a sea of green in every direction with game trails and tiny paths glimpsed one moment, and then gone. The sun barely penetrated the dense canopy, and the only sound for miles had been the whisper of the wind through the branches, and the occasional scurry of small animals in the undergrowth.

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.
