Been a very long time since I last posted on my blog, here's a little thing about E3 and games I've liked the look of! #gaming #E32021

It’s been months, I know. Just haven’t been feeling the blog lately, and apologies for that! However, I’m hoping to get back into things slowly. So we’ve just had E3 after a year break due to the ongoing global pandemic, and it’s been an interesting one. One can argue it was thin on the ground for big releases and other news, though another can argue that might be due to the ongoing…

My Impressions of Cyberpunk 2077 is finally ready: A long review of 2020's most notorious release! #CDPR #CDProjektRed #gaming #Cyberpunk2077 #videogaming #gamejournalism

Expectation is a powerful word, and it can make or break you. The jury is still on Cyberpunk, and it may be some time before we uncover it all. It’s certainly grabbed the world’s attention. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a delight towards the end of a brutal 2020 became something like a nightmare for many. Before I begin, I’d like to say something. I haven’t played a game like this in a…

Surprise End of the Year Post! Wasn't expecting to make one this year. It's been an odd one.

Well, this year has been odd, hasn’t it? I’m not going to go into all the cheerful things like worldwide pandemics and stuff, there’s enough of that online. I’ll just say that it’s been okay for my family and I, we’ve managed to get through so far without serious hardship, something we’re very lucky with. I’ve done what I can to help friends and family, and I’ll continue to offer support as much…

My Top 5 games of 2020 is finally here, with some surprising hits! #gaming #CPDR #amgaming #indiegames #THQNordic #Amongus

We’re finally here after weeks of teasing and build up. Hey, at least it’s not eight years worth! Desperados III I was fortunate enough to get the chance to play this awesome game six weeks before release, thanks to the awesome guys at THQ Nordic. Desperados III is made by the same cool people who made Shadow Tactics, Blades of the Shogun. I’m happy to say that Desperados III is a brilliant…

Got a short break until I announce my Top 5 games of 2020, so here's a smaller article covering some games that missed the cut or deserved a mention! #GOTY #indiegaming

Welcome to the article where I shove in my views on a bunch of games I haven’t covered yet. This is more of a talk where I get to ramble about a bunch of video games I’ve played that were released in 2020, and games I’ve either not included in the other categories, games I haven’t put much time into, or just stuff I’d like to discuss. It’s a bit of a clusterfuck this time, so let’s kick things…

#gameeveryweek Clank!  

Apparently, we have failed as gamer-parents because this is apparently the first deck-buildling game we've played with our girl and she's eleven. What a travesty! She got the hang of it quickly, though, so next I'll be teaching her Ascension (my favorite deck builder).

When I told the youngest Bryant the theme to this one (we're thieves sneaking into some caverns to steal treasures from a dragon and get back out before we get killed), she laughed and said, "So, what you're telling me is that we're stupid." I had to agree :-)

The title comes from the use of noise as a factor in whether or not you wake the dragon during your turn. Each time you do something that makes noise (like run while wearing armor, or fight a monster, or just stumble), you add a color coded cube to a bag, which is drawn from when the dragon attacks to see who takes damage.
