Technically now the "third" version of what is perhaps the perfect game, the Resident Evil 2 remake updates a classic and shows developers that narrative-driven content can succeed without the need for multiplayer and microtransacti

Does the idea of leaving a bug behind as we plow into Season 24 Meta four make for a hot take? You wouldn't think so, no. But given that this particularly problematic bug impacting an important aspect of gameplay has persisted for more than a month, it might be hotter than we'd initially susp

When I learned Tyler " Ninja " Blevins wrote a book about how to improve gameplay, I was interested to see if his tips would actually help me get better at Apex Legends . For a fee amounting to less than two months of Mixer subs, I downloaded Ninja: Get Good: My Ultimate Guide to Gaming for Kin

Disco Elysium is a game where you can be a godawful human being or a superstar cop. I don't think I've had more fun this year with a game than I did stumbling around as my drunken detective, wearing a kimono and waxing poetic about liquor, karaoke, and the pointlessness of life. It's not for everyone, but if you love world-building and playing as self-loathing scumbags, then you should be playing Disco Elysium until you're face down on the fl

Apex Legends made a powerful debut Q1 of 2019, EA opting for a bold "no marketing" tactic. Embodying the trends of 2019 by building on the popular battle royale genre, Apex Legends released on Windows, PS4, and Xbox One for free. Streamers contributed to the game’s success, but players stuck around due to the unique incorporation of ability-based heroes and a wonderfully addicting set of movement mechanics. Apex barely edges this one out due to Respawn’s slow-moving developmental support, but the fact that competitives and casuals alike have stuck around is a testament to the game’s impressive fundament

Revenant's climbing skill makes the legend an extremely elusive character as well. He can escape from combat encounters in such a way that it is impossible to follow. Other than Octane and Pathfinder, Revenant is one of the few truly mobility-focused legends in the game. His ability to engage enemies in unpredictable and trick ways paired with his seemingly endless amount of evasion skills makes the robot assassin a deadly force to face on the battlefi

How could it be anything other than Slay The Spire (I say, knowing full well I almost put Tetris 99 in this spot)? After initial frustration, Slay The Spire's various baddies are like old friends now - they're familiar, I've learned their rhythms. The cards and relics aren't mysteries to me anymore. Its delightful weirdness is old hat. And yet I find myself returning to it time and time again because it's just so clever, and it makes me feel clever - when I pay attention to it, when I'm not zoning out and just enjoying the jour

Finally, be sure to take note of the varying degrees of effectiveness found with the different barrel and stock items. Barrel stabilizers can decrease the oppressive recoil on full auto weapons, the same goes for stocks. Each of these items comes in a variety of rarity one being common, normal, epic and legendary. Learning how effective a common stock versus an epic stock is can be all the difference in winning or losing a combat encoun

Many people will celebrate Valentine’s Day with new loves or longtime partners, while others will lament the fact that they can’t get a date at all. But in my experience, finding a date for Valentine’s Day is a feat far less difficult than finding the perfect duo part

The firing range has undergone a variety of changes from the initial game to where it is now in season 4. It is currently one of the most versatile preparation type modes in any Battle Royale game to be released. Providing a multitude of weapons, enemies, targets, zip lines, armor, grenades, healing items, legendary items and even the ability to experiment with each character makes this mode a functional "must" for any player looking to impr

Revenant has access to one of the most powerful skills in the entire game. Silence is an extremely potent ability denying skill that can turn the tide of battle in one smart play. This makes the already deadly assassin one of the most powerful legends in the entire ros

World's Edge isn't the worst map, all things considered, and it's been a pretty fresh change of scenery after two entire seasons spent picking apart King's Canyon. However, it has already grown a bit stale, and does possess its fair share of glaring iss

Revenant's Silence is a tactical ability that allows the character to prevent an enemy from using their abilities for ten seconds. For example, if revenant hits Gibraltar with the Silence then the character is unable to use his ultimate or his bubble shield for ten seconds. This makes the defense powerhouse a sitting duck for your team to pick away at. Be aware that this ability does not restrict the use of passives in the game but only any of the many tactical abilities in the game. Silence also affects Revenant's own tactical abilities so be wise when casting this skill during matc
