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?

-
It’s truly bizarre that across the nearly 30 years of Warhammer video games, we haven’t had a single one that attempted to channel the tabletop Warhammer experience by utilizing the genre that feels best suited to do so: CRPGs. But that’s all about to change, as Pathfinder developer Owlcats has been cooking up something to fill this void. 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.

CD Projekt Really Wants Us to Know Cyberpunk 2077 Is Coming Out on December 10

-
After three previous delays, it's no wonder some are still worried that Cyberpunk 2077 could miss its December 10 release date. It's also no wonder that CD Projekt really wants you to know that it won't be missing that date. In the company's Q3 earnings reports, that date is mentioned multiple times, in multiple places. The date is referenced 4 times in the company's Q3 financial statement, earns itself two separate slides in its investor presentation, and company CFO Piotr Nielubowicz references upcoming release date in a video message to investors. "The final stretch before the release calls for enormous dedication and cooperation on the part of the whole team, which is now all the more difficult given that the vast majority of the team continues to work from home. This is why I wish to extend my deepest thanks to the entire team for their determination and hard work. Together we are wrapping up the grandest project in our history. [...] In 2 weeks' time Cyberpunk will be released to gamers around the world." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/cyberpunk-2077-playstation-gameplay-video"] It's perhaps no surprise that we're seeing these confirmations – we've had a final set of previews, seen physical copies reaching retailers, and even begun to see gameplay leaks. CD Projekt Red also reconfirmed the December 10 date to IGN after rumours about another delay began to spread. But it's testament to just how changeable Cyberpunk's release has been – and the huge anticipation for the game – that we're seeing CD Projekt make absolutely clear, again, that the game is on its way for the intended date. If you're convinced, we've got a list of the best Cyberpunk 2077 pre-order deals and, if you're in the market for new consoles and other games, a list of the best Black Friday video game deals.
