The Queue: A Short Hike

I know I talk a lot about indies as of late, but there are few games with as impeccable fall vibes as A Short Hike. It’s very cozy and not particularly long, but it’s a very soothing sort of play session. I really recommend it.

The Queue: “Hope” is the thing with feathers

If a poem is quoted in a video game, it’s on topic, right? Subnautica: Below Zero wasn’t as in-depth or as completely nerveshattering as the original, but it did have some bright points, including the narrative. In terms of immersion (pun not intended) I really liked how the original’s story was told, but the story itself (and the subtext on the human condition and what makes us human) in BZ hit for me — though of course I appreciate the overarching subtext through the franchise that big corporations are the true predator we should be afraid of.

The Queue: Boo who?

I know, my last Queue before Halloween I usually show y’all my costume, but I unfortunately forgot to take a selfie of myself in my Halloween costume. This one on a totally normal day with nothing different from usual will have to do. What do you… no, there’s nothing different, I always wear this silver necklace. Don’t, no, it’s… no, it’s fine. Don’t.

Don’t.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us the questions, and nothing is different from any other day so of course we’ll provide the answers.
