Is Cyberpunk 2077 Worth Going Back to After Patch 1.5?

CD Projekt RED didn't give up and the patching effort for Cyberpunk 2077 is still ongoing. New content, though modest, is still reaching the game. Patch 1.5, which is its next-gen upgrade, is a big step forward, though I, for one, won't be playing.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake PC Review: Ignorance is Not a Bliss

game review23 December 2021

Final Fantasy 7 Remake on PC does a wonderful job of resurrecting the classic, 1997 video game, bringing back the original feel and nostalgia. However, the port is flawed by complete disregard to the peculiarities of the PC platform.

Final Fantasy XIV Online: Endwalker Review

game review10 December 2021

Endwalker lives up to the expectations set by Shadowbringers and is a worthy closure to the almost 8-year story arc. With that feat, I’m confident that FFXIV is the best MMORPG currently available.

If Animal Crossing was set in the Middle Ages and featured more realistic survival and crafting mechanics, it would be called Medieval Dynasty. Killing animals for food would also have to be there.

The idea of playing as a witcher and roaming the lands for monsters to discover and hunts sound awesome, but not when it’s in the form of a game like this. Save yourself some time and read The Witcher books instead.
