A lot of open-world games in recent times end up being some type of RPG, like having Action RPG or RPG-lite elements. They often have leveling systems, damage numbers, and enemies with a level indicator above their heads, things that can often make these games less immersive. But not all of them go down that road, and some just focus on the storytelling a lot more. These kinds of games can be just as fun and maybe even more focused since they’re not trying to juggle so many mechanics....

Here, we are going to take a look at the differences between Dress To Impress....

The Last of Us Part 1and Part 2 have someincredible accessibility options. In an era of gaming where studios are trying to be as inclusive as possible to make sure that everyone can play games no matter their ability or skill level, this pair of games has garnered a reputation for having some of the best customization and accessibility options available. I tend not to need much accessibility help when gaming, but given how acclaimed the options in The Last of Us games are, I started my mostrecent playthrough of The Last of Us Part 1checking the menu to see what exactly was on offer....

John Wick 4has an extremely definitive ending. So definitive that it seemed as though the series couldn’t really continue as it was, which there also seemed to be a plan for. Spin-off series The Continental didn’t feature Wick at all, whilethe upcoming Ballerinais set just before 4 and provides a stepping stone for Ana de Armas to take over as the face of the series. But now we’re getting John Wick 5, so what happens?...

Quick Links “Lost Histories” is a great example of this.

It’s a fairly short quest to complete, but there are plenty of ways to complete it if you’re perceptive. Let’s go over every way you may complete this quest and go over the rewards you can expect....

Summary The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion’sremake/remaster is now officially gaming’s worst-kept secret, with about 400 leaks pointing to its imminent release.

The first time you encounter theDark BrotherhoodinElder Scrolls 4: Oblivionis magical. That may seem like a strange way to describe being confronted by an omnipresent death cult, but stick with me. Many of the people currently obsessed withOblivion Remasteredlikely played it for the first time way back in 2006 with little knowledge of what to expect from its sprawling fantasy world. That includes the consequences of murdering innocent NPCs and expecting to empty their corpses of loot and walk away without someone noticing....

Summary Pokemonrevealedit will add every single Eeveelution to its life-size plush collectionthis summer. The rollout of those plushes has begun, and even though only three of the eight new additions are available right now, it will cost you a small fortune if you want to catch ‘em all.

Understandable that Pokemon would begin with those three, as initially, when there were only 151 Pokemon, those were your only Eevee evolution choices....

A week later, those rumors have been quashed, and Billy the Puppet is the source. “I’ve seen the rumors. They say it’s Game Over. You all should know me better than that. The game is never over,” were Billy’s exact words....

South of Midnightis, as far as video games go, pretty standard. It plays like you’d expect a linear action-adventure to. You’re pushed through a linear world, doing some light puzzle-solving and platforming to get where you need to go. You gain abilities along the way, pushing and pulling objects where they need to be. You fight enemies in set arenas, plodding through the fairly mediocre combat. It’s formulaic, even boring. After an hour or two in its world, I found that the appeal of its story and its world’s undeniable beauty wasn’t enough to make me want to slog through the less than stellar gameplay....
