Monolith of Fate is the best part ofLast Epoch’s endgame. It scales endlessly, it is incredibly diverse, suitably challenging without veering into the realms of the frustrating (looking at you, Dungeons). They’re the best way to put your build to the test, while simultaneously being your best source of upgrades. One of those sources is blessings, permanent upgrades that can really take your character to the next level. You can build around them, use them to cover up your weaknesses or to really go hard on your strengths....

You don’t always know what to expect from first-person shooters. They can offer bombastic experiences that throw waves upon waves of enemies at you, or they can be more grounded and realistic. A handful of them even try their hand at stealth. This doesn’t always work out, though, with the limited view offered by the perspective can make sneaking around difficult. The games below do a decent job with it, though....

The majority of movie stars, singers, and television personalities in the world are hot people. While you need to be very talented to make it in Hollywood, when you compare the A-list actors of the world to the most successful writers, or even the most gifted athletes (where prime physical form is a necessity), the actors win in the looks department. We like seeing good-looking people on our screens; that’s what being good-looking means - good to look at....

He’s widely considered one of the most underdeveloped Origin characters in the game, his personality is extraordinarily bland in comparison to many others, and his game-wide arc is unsatisfyingand feels the least important. I’m not the only one who feels this way – my colleague Vaspaan Dastoor let him get dragged to hell by Mizora andfelt nothing but amusement, while editor-in-chief Stacey Henleyalso thinks he’s painfully boring, but necessary in the grand scheme of things....

With Rise of the Ronin, Princess Peach: Showdown, andDragon’s Dogma 2right around the corner, 2024 has come out swinging. Unfortunately, it seems likely to tire soon, and that’s when Xbox’s ol' rope-a-dope could see it land the killer blow....

The phrase “Sonic the Hedgehoghad a rough transition to 3D” will always bug me. I’d argue that Sonic’s more problematic 3D adventures happened well after the transition took place, and that hisactualtransition to full 3D, Sonic Adventure,better encapsulates the Sonic spirit better than any 3D game that came after. I’d even go so far as to say it continues to hold that distinction even today, after the 25th anniversary of its release....

Alan Wake 2’s Case Board was given such overwhelmingly negative feedback during development due to its “anxiety-inducing” mechanical depth that it had to be toned down a ton for the final game. As anyone who has played “We Sing” can tell you, Alan Wake 2 has some of the most memorable levels and gameplay mechanics of any title that was released in 2023.One of the most interesting mechanics in the game is the Case Board, which Saga Anderson uses in her investigations to figure out suspects, clues, intentions, and what her next move should be....
