Who knows, maybe that’s an easier way to get to a return of any kind of EverQuest. I mean, the lore and gameplay is already there and players do rock with this kind of ARPG. They will buy the battle passes, season passes, and expansions. You just have to give them something that is flames.
There’s Just Something About Ubisoft Games.

Now, some games might come off as dated if you played the recent ones but most hold up on the gameplay and storyline front bar for the story in Ghost Recon. Far Cry has gotten better with story and you can tell Ubisoft really utilizes their cultural team to make sure even the fictional location is authentic its real-world inspiration during a specific period.
The Mixed Reaction Around Assassin’s Creed III was Always Interesting.

It’s to the point that the first two games just feel clunky and stripped down when I go back to play them. The stories themselves still hold up but everything just felt dated gameplay-wise. The original plan was for it to end at ACIII but with future games focusing on Layla Hassan—and Hassan hanging around for several games—I can’t help but think that Desmond didn’t have to go out like at that point.
The Cruis’n Series Would be Out of Place Among Modern Racing Games.

With the kind of racers that are normally on Nintendo consoles, Cruis’n is pretty dated and in relation to racing games now, it holds it down enough in arcades or play places but it just didn’t get it done in the last two console ports. It just seems like Nintendo should handle the development for consoles but there’s often a quick turnaround between the arcade release and the console release—and Ninty takes its time with game development.
Shark Action RPG ‘Maneater’ is a Truly Unique Game.

My fascination with Maneater comes from putting to the theme with this game style and coming up with something that works and is playable—and I love stumbling across games like this.
Have you played Maneater? If so what were your impressions of the game? Also, what a game that you weren’t interested in at first that got your attention when you gave it a try? Let us know in the comments!
Honestly, Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a Blueprint for Future Titles.

It’s for good reason because it’s a formula that sells. Unfortunately, Firaxis’ formula didn’t so it but I believe it would be great for a larger group like The Avengers or the X-Men. As a matter of fact, it wouldn’t be that much different from Marvel’s Midnight Suns: just larger names and more heroes to play with.
Stardew Valley is Probably One of a Few Games I Can’t Say Anything Bad About.

At the moment, ConcernedApe is working on Haunted Chocolatier which seems like it will be in a similar vein but centered around a confectionary shop. However, something on the side in Stardew Valley such as the fishing or mining are worthy of their own titles. Hell, the Harvest Moon series kind of spanned the Legend of River King series and fishing was never so adventurous.

Looking Back at 2017’s Absolver.

With those two points, I’d say that Absolver is the start to what could be a good series. It’s far from bad but it’s not exactly a great game. It doesn’t seem barebones but it’s a pretty sparse world you’re diving into. In a potential sequel, I would like to see…civilization in the world of Adal. Also, being able to name skill combos and establish martial arts technique manuals and formal schools would be great.
