Video Games

If you're the gamer in your friend group or family, you often get asked about the various games you play, be they video games, tabletop RPGs, board games -- I have lost track of the amount of times I've been asked to explain Catan to people -- and you're put in the position of serving as a sort of unofficial ambassador for the hobbies you participate in and enjoy.

I've been hearing about the return of real time strategy games for years and years now.

Sometimes it's as simple as hey, you get to raise dinosaurs.

Big open world RPGs could be used to defeat me if I ever became a threat to all life.

This is something I don't think I've ever even heard of a game doing -- Ubisoft Quebec announced via Twitter that they're releasing two new Assassin's Creed DLC simultaneously, with the announcement happening the day before the DLC drop.

Ruined King: A League of Legends Story is a single-player, turn-based RPG, made by the folks at Airship Syndicate and published by Riot Forge.

I can't say I come back to World of Warcraft, because you can't come back when you never leave — but I do find myself returning to Diablo on the regular, having in the past week played both Diablo 2: Resurrected and Diablo 3.

When I pick up a new game I've not played, my general approach is to stumble and make mistakes.

"I loved Arcane, but I would never play League of Legends." That particular opinion is one that I've heard a bunch of times recently -- apparently, it resonates with lots of us.

By the time you read this, the Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker expansion should have been live for those who pre-ordered for several hours.
