Star Wars: Skeleton Crewis approaching the space opera a little differently. It feels as if every new Star Wars thing either tries that and ends up searching for an audience or is so cloyingly loyal to the established lore that it is closer to bashing action figures together than telling a story.

I have a few thoughts about the recently revealed player choices inDragon Age: The Veilguard. I am staggered thatNeve is the most popular romantic choice, with her writing being muddled andher voice acting, to be kind, even worse. The fact Lucanis is second suggests that people are just picking the two most conventionally attractive humans, which is very dull - these people definitelyplay Mass Effect as Soldiers. But at a certain point, I’m just disagreeing with an opinion....

Summary FromSoftwaregames are both incredibly beautiful, and downright nasty. For every sweeping vista or majestic cathedral, there’s usually one or two little gremlins hiding in them, thought up by twisted minds and given digital flesh.

There can only be one enemy that is the ugliest of them all, and that’s what FromSoftware fans tried to figure out ina Reddit thread posted by a user called Darkthrone0earlier today....
