Weird West Review

-
In this alternate universe, the West was won by trying a bunch of ideas so crazy they just might work… and if they don’t, hitting the quick-load button to revert to an earlier save and trying something even crazier until you pull it off. Thanks to that freedom to experiment with its world as you explore, Weird West is one of those games that feels like a stealth and combat playground even as it tells five mostly serious, well-written stories with interesting decisions throughout and a thoughtful conclusion. And with so much ground to cover and replayability to investigate, it’s well worth putting up with some quirks and underwhelming loot. What ties Weird West’s plot together is a group of shadowy figures using a magical brand to force your character’s consciousness into the bodies of various unsuspecting people. It’s a clever play on the way so many games have us take control of a character who already exists in that world but still need to bring us up to speed on their identity: h...

Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader – How Did it Take This Long to Get a Warhammer CRPG?

During an extensive hands-off demo of Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader, I checked out its extremely chunky turn-based combat system, drowned in its plethora of dialogue options and social skill checks, and nodded approvingly at its lovingly faithful depiction of Warhammer’s morbid universe. While it’s still very early, so far this CRPG is shaping up to be everything I’ve wanted from a Warhammer video game. If you’ve ever played (or even glanced at) a game of Warhammer 40K, then you probably know it’s designed for a hyper-specific kind of nerd who loves calculations, large-scale drama, and an incredibly detailed world one could easily get lost in.

But unlike our blue orb, this planet is populated by tiny helpful creatures called pikmin. It's also home to vicious alien predators that enjoy gobbling up your colorful new friends. Your job is to accompany the pikmin and explore the planet in search of food, all while solving environmental puzzles and fending off predators. Everything you do requires you to send pikmin to do it, so they'll bring food back to your ship and fight enemies for you, no matter how overmatched they seem. You'll just want to make sure to send the right kind of pikmin for the task. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/08/05/pikmin-3-deluxe-announcement-trailer"] New to the Deluxe version is a two-player co-op mode, additional side missions, and a handful of difficulty settings to make things easier in a variety of ways. It also includes all of the DLC released for the original. For more information about the game, you can check out our Pikmin 3 review.
