Genshin’s not an MMO either, but it does take a variety of lessons from the genre. It has shared spaces and co-op events. Its world is designed as a progression tool of its own — hard level-gating ensures that you can’t progress through the main story without becoming intimately familiar with the area it takes place in. The fact it runs on a regularly updated individual server even plays a role here — logging in and seeing I have mail from Mihoyo reminds me of the startup UI for Final Fantasy 14 or World of Warcraft. It’s a game where every day brings something new, where you can pal around with mates in multiplayer areas or become friends with new folks who seem sound. Sure, Genshin caters to a single-player experience for those who want it — but if you’re after something a bit more sociable, especially in times like these, Mihoyo’s got loads of that for you as w

Even if it wasn't exactly a traditional Fable game, Fable Fortune remains the best recent touchstone for the franchise. After all, it started out as Lionhead's handiwork, and even after the studio closed, many of its developers kept working on Fable Fortune. This card game first opened its doors to early access players in the summer of 2017, and then it released fully in February 2018. That means it's been about three years since Fable fans have seen any sign of life from the franchise, which isn't too long, even if it's been much longer since a normal Fable game came

The last anyone's seen of the game was a gameplay showcase in 2019, but little word on when the game will be done has come from the studio in quite some time. Ubisoft has plenty of other Underrated role-playing Games already confirmed to be showcased, so, unfortunately, it doesn't look like there's much new information about Beyond Good and Evil 2 at E3 2

The difference between Fable and The Elder Scrolls, though, is that The Elder Scrolls hasn't gone anywhere. Even though there hasn't been a numbered single-player entry in The Elder Scrolls in ten years, Skyrim alone is so unbelievably successful that Bethesda hasn't needed to release a new game. Skyrim just keeps coming back and delivering every time. The success of The Elder Scrolls: Online should also be noted. Even though the main games haven't been updated beyond a deluge of Skyrim remasters, The Elder Scrolls is going str

Taking the body of his daughter, the Stand returns, plunging her young fingers into and through the skin of his neck before giving him a challenge that can, possibly, save his life. Flick a piece of popcorn high into the air, above the nearby streetlights, and then catch it in his mouth, three times in a row. Failure results in him losing his head. He fails, but that’s not really the point here: what fascinated me was the popc

To be incredibly brief, the first episode of Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan is about one incredibly lucky man who deserves absolutely nothing, and tells Rohan all about it whilst sat in a confessional booth. This man meets a homeless person, then promptly treats them like garbage, putting the starving man to work, and swiftly killing them with some literally back-breaking labour. The only upside to all of this is that he is now forever cursed by an antagonistic Stand that swears to take revenge at the happiest point in the man’s l

This selfish man sitting in the confessional booth is here not because he truly feels guilty, or sad, but because he wishes to escape the fate he has created for himself. He felt no empathy for the homeless man he swiftly worked to death, and he never thought twice about the servants he had in his charge. In fact, he didn’t even seem to care for his wife much; he just wanted a supermodel, because men are supposed to want these things. This man is the epitome of desire, using any means necessary to get what he wants, or what he should want - and the means here was c

Fast forward many years and the man becomes absurdly wealthy thanks to an inheritance from a relative and, um, becoming a corn magnate. As in, he sells Corn Flakes, popcorn, and corn chips thanks to the corn he grows on the land he owns through his inheritance. I told you it was bizarre. He lives in a huge house, has a small army of live-in servants, is married to a supermodel, and has a daughter he loves very much. One day while walking the streets of Venice with his young daughter, he sees her smile and earnestly believes it to be the happiest he has ever been. That’s when the Stand stri

Once players defeat the Wasp King in Bug Fables and participate in the concluding celebration, they have beaten the game. However, the game's not over after the credits roll. This charming title has a post-game that offers players a chance to see how the world of Bugaria has changed following the discovery of the Everlasting Sapling and the subsequent fall of the Wasp Ki

Atlus has been riding high on the Persona series ever since the worldwide release of Persona 5 in 2017. Since then, it has released several spin-off games including Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight , Persona 5 Strikers , and are rumored to be working on a Persona 5 fighting game . The big rumor surrounding Persona for E3 2021 is that Persona 5 Royal will be coming to Game Pass later this year. It's possible that a Persona -related announcement might come during the Microsoft show, but it's likely to be about Game Pass and not Persona
