The Sims 4: Staying In and Getting Out
This is an ongoing series about my experience playing The Sims 4 for the first time. For other previous posts in the series, click here and here. As I’ve become more comfortable with The Sims 4‘s controls and general atmosphere, I’ve also taken a stab at trying to control my new sim, Peeps, more often…
Ranking Cuphead Bosses: Easiest to Hardest
Since Cuphead‘s release in 2017, the game has become known for two major things, its 1930’s art style and high difficulty. Now that I, too, have suffered through the many challenging bosses of Cuphead, I thought it would be fun to rank all 19 from easiest to the ones that walloped me the most thoroughly. …

What’s in a Name?
As I’ve been playing quite a lot of The Elder Scrolls Online of late, I recently realized that I’ve become enamored with the strangest distraction: player’s character names.

Wastelanders is good, but it’s still Fallout 76
After hanging up my power armor and bidding not-so-tearful farewell to Fallout 76 late last year, I didn’t figure that I’d see much of Appalachia any time soon, no matter Bethesda’s purported roadmap for the game. The introduction of the Fallout 1st subscription service, while interesting in theory, only soured the situation further. And when…
Resonance: Wawku Shrine
We’ve already written about the Okami soundtrack three times in the past because it’s just that good. Today we’ll be discussing one of my absolute favorite songs of all time, Wawku Shrine. This is the shrine where resides the Twin Demons, two clockwork owls called Lechku and Nechku. Being one of the final locations in…
