The Souls series is not for the faint of heart. Getting murdered in one hit or having a single mistake negate all of your progress is just part of the norm. One of the beautiful things about “Demon’s Souls” is you truly have to learn and understand your environment. For newcomers, this intense gameplay can make the title feel inaccessible. That’s why developer BluePoint Games almost added an easy mode to “Demon’s Souls.” In an interview with The Washington Post, Sony Studios head Gavin Moore acknowledges that there were discussions to make the game more accessible. However, they ultimately thought…

Others attempted to…

Things are looking dark for Capcom. On top of COVID-19 delaying “Monster Hunter Rise,” the company is now facing massive issues thanks to their recent hack. Last week, hacker group Ragnar Locker attempted to compromise Capcom’s data with ransomware. Unfortunately for the gaming company, they were successful.

The years have been good to “Demon’s Souls.” During it’s initial launch in 2009, the game was beloved by only an extremely niche group of gamers. This was partially due to its exclusivity on PS3 and to the severe lack of marketing for the title. However, when its spiritual successor Dark Souls launched only two years later it brought a massive following along with it. Now, we finally have the full-fledged remake of the title and it lives up to its original. In every way, the remake embraces its roots while bringing new life to the game. Enemies and gameplay…

You live in the world of Aperion. It’s a fantastical world made up of four realms- earth, water, air and fire. Each realm offers its own breathtaking landscapes and dangerous creatues. However, your home is in serious danger. As Orin, a Valorian Knight, it is your responsibility to protect the realms by taking down your brother Marcos. His goal? To obtain enough power to ascend to godhood. That’s right, you need to challenge a god. Although the premise of “Godfall” is certainly interesting, the story itself falls flat rather quickly. I think there are two main reasons for this: the…

I’ve been spending a lot of time with female Eivor over the past few days. From the frozen peaks of Norway to the rolling plains of England, there is plenty to see and pillage.

So let’s take a look at some of the good and bad features i’ve discovered on this adventure. The Good Customizable Loot: I’ll admit it, when I first heard there would be less loot in this title I was…
