Just finished playing Sons of the Forest with a buddy. If anyone is looking for a great co-op survival adventure game, this is the one to play. The AI enemies never seize to amaze you as they change behavior and tactics over time. One example would be seeing enemies crying over their dead...

It's a really solid show. I actually think there is not enough subtitles, as the theme is supposed to be centered around the Portuguese and the Japanese, but there is not even a single Portuguese word uttered by any character. Meanwhile X-men '97 is way better than I imagined. Haven't re-watched...

You'll be fine. I truly wish you both the best.

Awesome! Your diligence is inspiring.

Pre-ordered the physical copy. I'm really not into indie games, but stuff like Darkest Dungeon & Hollow Knight made me change my tune over the years. Haven't played the game yet, but the Junji Ito art style and design alone made it a must buy.

I hated it. Dialogue was specially bad because characters keep on hammering the same preaching lines over and over again. I only slightly enjoyed it a bit more than that Netflix series with Lance Reddick, which was atrocious, because Leon, Jill and Co are in it.

Castlevania Nocturne Another solid season (all of them are). It might take a while for the stakes to truly pick up in the first half of the episodes, but it delivers in the final stretch. Writing, animation and action setpieces are top notch. Best thing current Konami ever did for the franchise.

I have no issues with the scope it went for, as most backers and every one else were expecting a grand project given the high profile Kickstarter success story. My main gripe was the lackluster scenarios or setpieces, as most consist of learning this one ultimate move from a grandmaster to...

I've been playing a lot of Diablo 4 lately. It's disgustingly addicting. Also getting back to fighting games thanks to SF6. Been trying to play it with a leverless controller. In the first couple of days it felt like I've never touched a gamepad before. Couldn't even jump properly. Anyway, both...

I usually wouldn't bother, but if people ask me for a suggestion on anything different to play I simply tell that if a game in which the world progresses despite the intervention of the player (meaning sidequests can expire without you ever knowing, npc strict scheduling and finite time to...

I bought every merch from this anime I could find and still waiting for a Blu-Ray release, but all in all I didn't find the anime itself to be anything particularly special. It could have leaned a bit more on the drama side as anime excel in that aspect or at least had memorable action...

Not the best if I'm going to be honest but the 16-bit era will always be my favourite. Aside from nostalgia, we are talking about a generation where cross-platform games would still end up as exclusives to their respective consoles, something never to be seen ever again. Also there's the...

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023) Solid all around. It makes the D&D brand proud. Such a fun light-hearted adventure, with that "make itself as we go along" structure of the tabletop games, which is quite ambitious to translate into an actual film. Probably most will forget about...

Netflix's Beef. One of the best series I've watched recently. Kind of unpredictable with very relatable characters and story. Comedy, drama, thriller and rinse back. Steven Yeun might be one the greatest actors of this generation. Watch Burning and Minari if you don't believe me.

TLOU is easily the best live videogame adaptation to date. For those on the fence, just watch episode 3 as it will show you its quality. It's basically a standalone episode and diverges heavily from its source material. It's all the better for it, as to me it beats anything shown in the games...
