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.

Marvel's Avengers: Hawkeye Content to Be Revealed In New War Table Next Month

-
Marvel's Avengers next War Table will take place on February 16, 2021, and it will showcase both Hawkeye and the delayed PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions. Announced by Marvel's Avengers on Twitter, Hawkeye and his Operation, Hawkeye - Future Imperfect, will be the next free big DLC content to be released following the arrival of Kate Bishop and her new Operation, Taking A.I.M. Hawkeye Hawkeye was the first post-launch hero revealed for Marvel's Avengers, and Bishop's Operation saw her embark on a rescue mission for Clint "Hawkeye" Barton by using a bridge through time to save him. Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics had planned on having the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S version ready earlier, but they were delayed "to ensure that we give our team the time to deliver a next-gen experience showcasing all that this game is meant to be." Although a report came out last year that said Marvel's Avengers hadn't yet recouped its development costs, these updates, as well as the upcoming PlayStation exclusive Spider-Man DLC, will hopefully help make 2021 a successful one for the game. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/11/19/marvels-avengers-kate-bishop-trailer"] Fans of Hawkeye have a lot more to look forward to, as a Hawkeye series is also in development for Disney+.
