Everything that occurs in the gaming industry is the result of work that people have put their life forces into. And as a result, I want to use this platform as my way of saying, “Thank you.” Continue Reading
Open World Experiences Are What You Make of It
Open world video games can be difficult to review. The reason being that one of the key characteristics of the genre is giving the player the “keys to the car” so to speak to explore and engage in countless activities within vast game worlds.
