The Ascent is a cyberpunk action rpg that puts you in the role of an indent, someone who is effectively owned by a corporation and in this instance, the biggest corporation of them all: The Ascent Group. The game isn’t extremely long, but the world’s lore is very deep and quite interesting. For those of you who haven’t played and don’t want spoilers, I suggest you stop reading now. The Story of The Ascent So the player, as the indent, is tasked by Poone who is sort of the stack boss of the area to help bring sanity to their level by doing various miscellaneous tasks.

Editorials
Sekiro kill shot

It’s hard to get the point across with a single game, even with two what you are trying to say can get lost in everything that you are trying to do. The third game is what gives your gaming audience the time to digest what you want them to see which in this situation it is the kind of games you want to make. With the release of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice we can finally see what kind of games that we can continue to expect out of From Software, historically inspired, dark, and difficult RPGs. First, let’s look at what exactly the first “Souls” games were and how they laid the foundation for what this game pattern that I’m talking about. Demon Souls is a medieval inspired RPG that pits you against, well obviously, demons of all varying shapes and sizes that make staying alive more than a little…

Kingdom Heart’s III Sleeping Realms / Worlds Theory is 353 Pages of Dream Theory (Warning: Spoilers)

Editorials
kh3 dream theory

A 353 page Google Document outlines a wild theory about Kingdom Heart’s III occurring in an alternate dream universe. While the 353 pages aren’t all text and it does have a lot of pictures, the theory is very through in going over how this happens, the exact point in the timeline it occurs and showing a myriad of Easter eggs to back up the plot. If you want to dive into the Google Doc you can or follow along with us as we go over a rough outline of the theory. Since the Kingdom Hearts III Ultimania spoilers are now out, I feel like this theory is going to be more or less debunked and we will actually start off with that below. Serious spoilers moving forward: The theory proposes that towards the end of KH3, when the entire party wipes to the Demon Tide and Sora goes to the…

To Everyone that Skipped Out on Hollow Knight, What is Wrong with You?

Editorials
Hollow Knight 2

So I have a question, what would you do if I said I knew about one of the best indie games of all time, that was a beautifully crafted metroidvania style game with deep lore, charming characters and made you never want to stop playing it? You would probably scream at me “WHAT IS IT, TELL ME?!?!?!?” and after I managed to calm you down I would point you to Hollow Knight and its upcoming sequel Silksong. I am not kidding when I say that as a whole game there is absolutely nothing that I dislike about this game, from the developers to the DLC to the support from the community hell, even getting the images for this article was easier than every other game I have ever had to do this with. By the way thank you Team Cherry for making that press kit and making it actually super…

How Apex Legends is giving Titanfall 2 a much-needed boost

Editorials
Apex Legends bloodhound

Everyone has that one underrated game from their childhood that always brings back those nostalgic memories of simpler and more innocent times. The problem is that most of the time you realize that you only thought those games were great was because you were seeing them through rose-colored glasses and if you actually went back and played them you would realize how they weren’t underrated but just honestly not that good. Luckily Titanfall 2 is definitely not one of those cases even if it wasn’t exactly from anyone’s childhood per se. Significant portions of the internet were singing the praises of Titanfall 2 even in the midst of being buried by the more popular title Battlefield One that not only released one week earlier but was also published by EA which essentially means the EA undermined their own game. Cool. Thanks again EA…… Dicks. However not only did the game…

Mortal Kombat 11 What We Know so Far

Editorials
MK11 Shao Kahn

When is enough bloody fighting games enough? Well, we aren’t there yet because Mortal Kombat is back and just as bloody and lore confusing as ever. With the latest reveal of classic (or Klassic if you’re a nerd like myself) character Jade, I figured it would be a good time to check in and see who all will be on the latest MK roster and how they all fit in with the story. In a surprising turn of events, MK X was not nearly as brutal in terms of killing story characters as its predecessor Mortal Kombat (Technically the 9th game in the series). Probably because it forced the devs to change up the roster for the next game and quite a few characters are returning in MK11. Scorpion and Sub-Zero were virtually guaranteed to return they brought along some classic and some newer characters that managed to survive this…
