Another review from me. This was a tough one to write up, honestly. I needed to balance my love for Innocence and Requiem with the reality that this is not, and never was, going to be a game exactly like those two. While the game's surface missions were meh, diving underground was worth it.

REVIEW: Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy "...the stunning visuals and intricate designs of the island’s many landscapes, tremendous music, an engaging central mystery more than make up for the parts that left me soured." checkpointgaming.net/reviews/2026...

At this year's #Gamescom, we have: * Dark fantasy RPG * Dark fantasy RPG * Dark fantasy action RPG * Eastern dark fantasy action-RPG * Korean dark fantasy action-RPG * Dark fantasy, open-world action-RPG set in the world of D&D * A game for the furries.

REVIEW: The Sinking City 2 "The Sinking City 2 may wear its influences on its sleeve, but it absolutely delivers on its own merits and, more importantly, an understanding of Lovecraftian power scaling, horror, and storytelling." checkpointgaming.net/reviews/2026...

The Sinking City 2 Review – Farewell, Arkham!

While slightly frustrating, Frogwares' stand-alone sequel The Sinking City 2 delivers a successful Lovecraftian survival horror experience.

Not to be narcissistic and quote myself, but my thoughts on Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy's preview are that "playing it felt like I was wading through an undercurrent of wrongness, that something was fundamentally off, but indescribable." #APlagueTale #AsoboStudio @focus-entmt.com

This is the one time I'll say this on record, if you take this for your local event, I won't be going or supporting. Saudi funded blood money injections can fuck right off. But the sad part is people will think this is great and do this anyway, and the esports washing will go unimpeded.
