Ninja also impresses how important it is to advertise the stream. I haven’t been the best at this, but when I do it, I definitely get more engagement. Turns out it's hard for people to find your stream if they don't even know you stream. W

Persona 3 marked a turning point for a franchise that still had a long way to go before it could get away from the shadow of its origin series, Shin Megami Tensei . With the integration of social sim movement mechanics nerf and a proper calendar of sorts, the game turned into something truly spectacular ind

We don’t think Crypto’s version of fancy is in line with the spirit of the Grand Soirée, but it’s certainly an interesting look. He looks less like he’s attending an exquisite old-fashioned party and more like he’s about to order bottle service at the club. But hey, points for eff

Perhaps surprisingly, applying all this advice made a positive impact on my gameplay. While _ Apex Legends _ ’ new map and changes to skill-based matchmaking may have also contributed to these improvements, I noticed the changes started happening around the time I started using these strateg

What can I say? I'm a sucker for Pokemon . The jump to the Switch wasn't without its faults, yet I found myself enjoying every second of my time with the game. The Wild Area brings thrilling new content to the Galar region, the dialog is witty/corny, and the battles strike the sweet spot of being too easy and aggravatingly difficult. Many games might be more technically advanced, or tell a better story, but there isn't a game this year I enjoyed more than the latest Pokemon advent

After rebelling against his creators, Kaleb - now Revenant - swore to find whoever did this to him, and eventually wished for true death. When he realized that the only way to "kill" himself was to destroy his hidden "real" head, Revenant entered the Apex Games to gather as much information as he could regarding this object

Maximize the Totem through planning: The Totem is extremely helpful but is also dependent on the team’s planning. For instance, players should recharge their Shields prior to entering Shadow Mode to get Shield protection upon returning. Likewise, players should remember to use Launch Pads (Octane) and Dimensional Rift (Wraith) to travel to combat locations much fas

Respawn's done really well when it comes to rolling out awesome new characters to choose from, so hopes here are pretty high. Leaks and rumors abound, with one potential candidate being "Revenant," who might actually be the spooky game master of the Halloween Shadowfall event. Other possibilities include " Reckoner, " with an interesting set of shield-stealing and damaging abilities, and a mysterious newcomer referred to as "Lo

When I learned Tyler " Ninja " Blevins wrote a book about how to improve gameplay, I was interested to see if his tips would actually help me get better at Apex Legends . For a fee amounting to less than two months of Mixer subs, I downloaded Ninja: Get Good: My Ultimate Guide to Gaming for Kin

Link has to get pretty strong before even thinking about taking on one of these foes. Even after getting good weapons and armor, players must be wary of taking on these foes, since a single misstep can cause Link to be obliterated in no t

Given the cutthroat nature of battle royale games like Apex Legends , players only have one shot to score the championship - forcing more careful plays and tactical risks. This isn’t the case with Revenant , whose silencing abilities are coupled with a guaranteed second life that can give his team an edge even in the direst of situations. However, with February 2023 marking a major change in most Apex Legends characters, Revenant players who underestimate their foes are rendered obsolete with their changed abilit

Shadow Mode is helpful, but not indestructible: Anyone from the team who touches the Totem becomes a shadow for 25 seconds. However, Shadow Mode doesn’t have Shields and only has 50 Health upon returning to the Totem after death. The Totem’s time is extended based on the last person to become a shadow. Meaning, turning into a shadow when the Totem is only a few seconds from closing will extend the Totem’s timer for another 25 seco

Bangalore gets a snazzy militaristic skin that goes well with her various militaristic poses. Meanwhile, Bloodhound is… blue, a nice blue. Or is it turquoise? Or seafoam green? Whatever it is, it’s lov

Fire Emblem had been spinning its wheels for a long time before the release of Three Houses . Who could have guessed that the latest Fire Emblem game would be one of the most absorbing games of the year, with an interesting overarching story and an incredible battle system that is engaging without being watered down or too difficult to grasp. It can be hard to finish a game once, but Fire Emblem: Three Houses can easily convince players to go through it three times to see the whole story. It’s just a shame that you can’t pet the dog
