I was incredibly nervous whenSquare Enixfirst confirmed thatFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirthwould have an affinity system. After taking inspiration from The Witcher 3, it was reasonable of me to fear that Rebirth’s offering would be lightweight and unnecessary. Surprisingly, it boasts far more depth than I ever could have expected. Time is taken to pair characters together as they embark on side quests with narrative weight and consequence. It’s been years since an open world has offered up a laundry list of side quests I actually care about enough to finish....

We can all agree that facism is stupid, right? Most of us know that putting those in authority before yourself and everything else is merely propaganda that helps maintain the status quo. Some of us may also feel that the armed forces are nothing more than tools to protect those in power. However, when it comes toHelldivers 2, I’ll gladly salute to Super Earth while staring death in the face if it means taking out some democracy-threatening bugs or bots along the way....
