Tragic that something with decades of history can be destroyed in such a short period of time.

I'm a big fan of metal cards and the knock-on effects their existence has on regionals. It's just very refreshing seeing every champion legend represented at these tournaments.

Brazil performing well internationally is objectively a good thing for League of Legends esports. A passionate fanbase that doesn't undersell the importance of its domestic league (something NA/EU fans are guilty of) and teams with actual brand identity and relationships with the fans / league.

This is a thought I had when someone told me they didn't enjoy Baldur's Gate 3 anymore when they hit max level. It's very strange to me.

David Gaider Reflects On 15 Years Of Dragon Age 2 - A Fan-Favorite Story That Was The Team's First Draft David Gaider talks us through a story that had to be written so quickly that his team had no time to doubt themselves.

It's here! This has been an utter joy to work on for Dragon Age 2's 15th anniversary. Huge thank you to David Gaider for taking me through how he and all of the writers managed to get this fan favourite story finished, with no time for redrafts www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

Dragon Age 2 Bucked The Trend Of World-Ending Stakes And Gave Us The Series' Best Companions Dragon Age 2's cast remains the best in the series.

My own contribution was an analysis of how Dragon Age 2's limited development cycle actually enabled a really raw, character-focused story that probably wouldn't have happened if BioWare had more time. www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

15 Years Later, Dragon Age 2 Is Still The Most Reactive BioWare Game In Every Way That Matters One-liner references to previous decisions go a long way in making a Dragon Age playthrough feel like it's unique to you.

Rhi also compared the reactivity of Dragon Age 2 to Inquisition, and how the former nailed the balance between fan-service and development effort. www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

15 Years Later, Characters Like Dragon Age 2's Isabela Don't Really Exist Anymore Romance options used to have spark and edge, but now they're too tailored.

Stacey explored how characters like Isabelaβ€”beautiful and sexualβ€”don't really exist in modern media. www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

It's the fifteenth anniversary of Dragon Age 2, and we did a little feature series over on TheGamer. First up was Rhi's fantastic interview with David Gaider, the progenitor of one of my favourite RPG settings. www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

There hasn't been a good game since Peter Molyneux's Fable 2, at least until Peter Molyneux's Albion releases.

Planet Of Lana 2: Children Of The Leaf Review - Mui Bien Planet of Lana 2 is yet another touching tale in an unforgettable world.

I really enjoyed Planet of Lana 2, it builds well on what the first established and raises the bar:

Resident Evil Requiem's Return To Raccoon City Is Almost Everything I Wanted It To Be Capcom delivers its most nuanced combination of action and horror yet with Resident Evil Requiem.

Resident Evil Requiem combines utterly terrifying horror with action so ridiculous it had me smiling like a fool.

And somehow, despite some pacing missteps and a couple of irksome flaws, it all works. #ResidentEvilRequiem

Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment (also known as Jade takes far too many screenshots of Zelda simulator) delivers when it comes to fierce combat and heartfelt storytelling.

It's a surprisingly evocative prequel to Tears of the Kingdom that shakes up the musou formula in some worthwhile ways.
