As a fan of Nioh, Wuchang, and Wo Long, the Wuxia-style combat in Where Winds Meet feels impossibly good.

Went to a wedding.

I joke with Westen often, but the truth is I admire the commitment to his blog. He might have started it due to an existentialist impulse, but his weekly reviews, rankings, and pieces reflect a deeper meaning. Give it a read.

I love talkative characters. Wheatley, Frey, even Atreus provided personable insights into the characters' psyche and the world around them. But it just feels like such an odd choice for Metroid.

Where Winds Meet released today. I can't believe a free-to-play game looks THIS impressive.

Tracked: Shoot To Survive makes the most of its Canadian wilderness setting to make you feel hunted with no choice but to fight back. The only drawback is that it's at the expense of adjusting to dated graphics. My third review of the week:

Recently found out about 1348 Ex Voto coming soon, and it looks amazing? Haven't played a medieval fantasy in a while.

I am tired of posting about genAI but WHAT IS THIS? Black Ops 7 rampantly using generated assets?! No shame at all, I'm telling you. SUPPORT REAL ARTISTS.

I am glad so many folks are making the time to try And Roger after the Indie Game Awards nomination. Only a unique experience like this could evoke one of my most heartfelt reviews to date.

The Indie Game Awards do a fantastic job at showcasing many games that might have gone under the radar. From And Roger to Pipistrello and so much more, it's among the best indie initiatives out there!

Play Gigasword.

I know, I know. Too many games. But Gigasword is a great 2D metroidvania that should be on your radar, especially if you love retro games.

RUINSMAGUS is one of the first games I ever played on PSVR2 and was blown away by its JRPG look. I am incredibly excited to explore this new universe from the same studio!

ENTER THE ARENA. Glassbreakers is here. Play it now on Steam, Meta, and Apple Arcade. PLAY NOW! 🔗 Meta: vr.meta.me/s/1P5XjZEyRQ... 🔗 Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/887330/G...

Gigasword is so grounded in its NES inspirations you'll want to play it on a CRT TV. Creative puzzle mechanics will appeal to a certain type of retro player yearning for the classics. My review:

TRACKED: Shoot To Survive is OUT NOW on Meta Quest 3/3S. 🛩️ You’re not just fighting the wilderness, you’re fighting to save your sister. Craft weapons, forge tools, and make every shot count. 🎥 Watch the trailer while downloading the game! www.meta.com/en-gb/experi...

IT'S 🗡️GIGASWORD DAY!11111!!1!!!111! 😤😤😤😤

VR is alive and well. Valve's new headset and the VR Games Showcase are proof of that. If you have a sliver of curiosity, please give yourself the chance to try it.

I will never adapt to AI in games. There's a world of devs putting in the work, creating actual art in the hopes of sparking real human emotion for me to make time for someone who has decided to cut corners. Miss me with that stale slop.

So, I started playing Eternal Strands yesterday on stream, and I have to say it deserved a better reception. Fantastic sense of art direction, charming cast of characters, and a refreshing mix of magical combat and curious exploration make for an impressive debut title. Can't wait to keep playing.

The big day has finally arrived for our favourite little mouse… 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐭❄🪓❄🐾❄🍄❄🌲❄🍪 WINTER BURROW IS OUT NOW 🥧❄🧣❄🪑❄🐾❄🐭❄✨

Winter Burrow is a cozy survival game that is bogged down by its strenuous repetition. But just like a heated blanket on a snowy night, its heartwarming message is one sure to give you comfort.

Two HUGE franchises! 👀 In this month’s Get Rec’d episode, Jared is joined by @andresplays.bsky.social to swap gaming recommendations and discuss Halo 2 & Final Fantasy 16. We also yap about reviewing games and content creation 😊😆 creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

SPINE is one of my most anticipated games.

I had never been able to talk extensively about Final Fantasy XVI, a game I was very passionate about in 2023, until now. It doesn't hurt that Jared from the Play Along podcast (@playalong.bsky.social) was so easy to talk to. Hope you give a listen to one of my most enjoyable game convos:

It's my dad's birthday!

Just had the most wonderful stream in a very long time. I loved Eternal Strands! Can't wait to play more of it.

LIVE NOW with Eternal Strands! First time playing so excited to share a new journey together. Twitch.tv/andresplays93

Back to Twitch like every other Tuesday at 6PM EST! Can't wait to try Eternal Strands by @yellowbrickgames.bsky.social for the first time. Twitch.tv/andresplays93

I hope such expensive games like Pokémon Pokopia at $70 push folks to look out for better games that are not published by Nintendo because they're already way ahead of what they're doing.

I'm getting the soulslike urge again. Now that I have a gaming laptop, which one do you think is worth playing on Steam?
