Log In To Collect Your Reward

 I play a lot of games. A LOT. Many times, some of these games require me to log in and collect a daily reward, Normally this is fine, but with the amount of titles offering these incentives, I find myself logging in and then logging out just to do the same for another game incase I miss their login reward as well. Sound exhausting? That's because it is. Most of the time I can manage it (especially if it's 10 or so days out of the month) but if I want to get the end prize for consecutive days, I'm pressured. Couldn't sign on because you had the doctor's appointment after work? Back to day one. Wasn't able to make it because you have other priorities that take ahold of you during the day? Back to day one. It's nerve-wracking.      *image of an OKAY way to do this from Rogue Company I get that companies want you to come back to their game. I get that it's a good way for customers/players to be rewarded for loyalty. That all makes sense. It's when it be

Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising GAMEPLAY

One of my most anticipated games of all time, Eiyuden Chronicle, is getting a spin-off (sort of) game.  In the same way Final Fantasy A King's Tale complimented Final Fantasy XV, Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising, looks to do the same for Eiyuden Chronicle. You get to learn backstory to multiple characters for the upcoming main game. You get town building mechanics as well as fast paced action RPG combat. The art style stays true to games of the past (Suikoden, since it's made by its creators after all) and looks absolutely stunning. Today, 28 minutes of gameplay GOODNESS was dropped on IGN's YouTube channel and I couldn't be more excited. There's a bunch of developer insights as well to explain a lot of what's happening throughout the gam and production! Check it out in all it's glory here:

WWE 2K22 REVIEW

  A long time ago I was the biggest wrestling fan in the world. WWE's Attitude Era was booming. The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin graced my television and my young ears with expletives and new ways to get detention in school. Fast forwarding many years to the present, I have fallen off the wrestling train. Not for any reason other than I honestly just don't have the time. Shows are 3+ hours long every single week and the others are on Sundays.. I have video games to play, dang it. Oh and work. I guess. So I get my fix through YouTube videos and games like WWE 2K. Sure, I may not know some of the roster anymore but that's how I get to know them now and either cheer or jeer them depending on my experience within the game. You beat me in a triple threat match after I dominated you through the first half of the match? Prepare to get boos whenever you're on my screen! How DARE YOU?! The last few years, I have been playing the WWE 2K series through the good and, unfortunat

I'm Scared Of Elden Ring

     It's not a matter of it being creepy, or spooky. It's a matter of me being SO bad at trial and error. I'm one of those people who, in the Dark Souls series, never learn. I will try the same technique over and over until I feel that I am just terrible at the games. Now, I HAVE completed Dark Souls 1 and 2. It may have taken me some years. Some tears. Some expletives. But I did it. Was it the hard way? Yes. Did I learn? No. That's what I am afraid of with Elden Ring. I LOVE these games. I LOVE the idea of them. I feel so accomplished when I beat a boss or get through to the next bonfire. I don't love the middle. The adapting. The trying out giant hammers instead of fast swords. I'm not saying these are bad things, I am just bad at them.  Gosh, does it look awesome though. There are mounts, giant enemies, open world. It's everything I  want. Then I see the videos of people getting dominated out of the skies, surprise ground attacks and misrolls into misfor
