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. For the past three lists, I’ve actively avoided its output in an attempt to, quite literally, think outside the “BioWare box.” Well, with my holiday gatherings list, it’s…

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: Holiday Cheers for Those Who Jeer
Are characters with mean streaks or rude manners exempt from having and Christmas spirit? Well…perhaps yes, in some regard. Maybe they’ll just be the unlucky ones with stockings filled with coal, but that doesn’t mean that villains can’t enjoy themselves around the holidays like everyone else! 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: Celebrating Friendships and Families
This time of year brings about different modes of being for different people. Some folks prefer a stretch of solitude to the chaos of family gatherings and friendly parties, while others revel in those very festive groups of kin and acquaintances. Our second Listmas topic of the season strays away from solo ventures to multiplayer…
Listmas 2024: Friends and Family Are the Greatest Gift of All
The one thing more important than gifts and good food during the Christmas season (as much fun as they are) is having friends and family to share the holidays with. (After all, who else is going to give you those presents, ha ha!) So it’s about time we listed some of the gaming relationships that…
Listmas 2024: The Duck’s Favorite Teammates
RPGs are typically known for their grand stories and complex characters. Alongside turn-based fighting where allies and foes alike take turns slapping each other silly. Ahem, considering these kinds of games usually give us a wide array of characters that we can choose to travel alongside us, we thought it would be a good idea…
Another Year, Another Listmas!
Each year, when a chill sets in and the smell of hot chocolate wafts dreamily in the background, we know that Listmas isn’t far away. Of course, it also means that the end-of-year holidays are on the horizon; but it wouldn’t be the holidays in the blogosphere without Listmas! For over a decade, we’ve been…
Listmas 2023: Favorite Street Fighter 6 Unique Gifts
Giving gifts to curry favor and bond with companions in games, especially RPGs, isn’t anything new, and it’s a mechanic that I never seem to fully understand. I always end up giving the wrong gifts to the wrong people until, at some point, I cave to finding a guide so that I can get everything…
Listmas 2023: (Mostly) Relaxing Games for Nature Lovers
Sometimes, I just want to play something relaxing. And one thing I find especially relaxing is nature. With its soft, green grass. The murmur of running water. The fresh air and the cool breeze. And all the little critters that accompany it. And that is why I’ve decided for our Wildcard Week to list a…
