I don’t know about you all, but I struggle to remember everything I play in a year. I don’t necessarily mean that I’ll forget ever playing a game, but rather the “when” of it all kind of gets fuzzy. And, yeah, some games really are just that forgettable. Also, of those that are memorable, picking…

Listmas 2024: Five Great Things About Dragon Age: The Veilguard
If you happen to follow me on my personal blog, there I’ve been a little down on Dragon Age: The Veilguard. In hindsight, I don’t know that I’ve been abnormally picky, but I haven’t yet reached a point where I’m seeing BioWare’s vision for what it wants the game to be. At the moment, the…

It’s time for our wildcard week, folks! While the rest of the month was dedicated to relationships, I thought I’d focus more on our surroundings for this week’s post.

Listmas 2024: A BioWare Bash!
With my first Listmas list this year, I said that when it comes to favorite friends and families in games, my mind immediately goes to BioWare titles.

Listmas 2024: The Duck’s Revised Christmas Guest List
Our last Listmas category before our wildcard week revolves around those characters we’d most want to spend the holidays with, whether it be due to our inkling that they’d be good gift-givers or just a lot of fun to be around. I actually wrote a similar post back in 2022 if you want to check…
Listmas 2024: Look Who’s Come for Christmas Dinner!
While games are good primarily due to good gameplay, good characters are a large part of what makes a game fun and memorable. Getting to know them is often as interesting as the overarching story itself, and I dare say many of us have thought about who we’d like to hang out with IRL were…
Listmas 2024: Holiday Cheers for Those Who Jeer

Well, whether or not any holidays are celebrated at…
Listmas 2024: Even Scrooges Need Christmas Cheer
We’ve already covered our favorite allies and most memorable gaming friendships and family relationships. So now let’s look at the other end of the moral spectrum. Because you can’t really have a good adventure without some villains causing the main conflict. These guys might be on Santa’s naughty list, but that doesn’t mean they can’t…
Listmas 2024 – Villain Teams That Just Work
Good friendships and camaraderie among good-aligned characters are pretty common in gaming. Developers tend to want us to like our virtual friends, so they tend to make them as likable and interesting as possible. And, it works. We’ve already gone through several lists of great protagonist characters these past couple of weeks. Villains, however, are…
