That looks incredibly inviting. I may have to install it and give the game another play. I love the theme and that world looks quite inviting.
One of my favorite areas of Gothic III was the desert….

There can be a middle ground between KoTOR's black-and-white choices and other games where there is only a linear path. The Witcher did pretty well with a more nuanced approach. The problem is, the…

I always wonder why code for content that wasn't included in the final release is left in place in games. I worked as a Programmer/Analyst in business applications for almost 17 years. It was always…

Seems like some reviewers will slag a game regardless of its quality. They think being a critic means you must find fault with whatever you review. And some reviewers are completely inexperienced…

I think in general, there's a bit of snobbery here about turn-based old school RPGs. I tend to agree with much of what MigRib has said about gaming. I, too, tried FO 1 & 2, but also much prefer FO3…

Okay, can someone recommend a game currently out where the protagonist is not some sort of 'Chosen'? Just a Guy trying to get by. I'd like a non-party, single-player, open world, NON turn-based game…
