TheGamer News Team's Favorite Games Of 2019

Arguably the hardest aspects of Apex to master is its roster of Legends. Each character has a very distinct style of play which requires a firm knowledge of their strengths and weaknesses. Trying to excel at playing this title without understanding how your character operates is an easy way to lose a game fast. You are not only a liability for your team but also impeding your own growth in the popular title. This guide will present the general strengths and weaknesses of each of the Legends in Apex Leg

As a writer, Hagopian may have entered the world of battle royale games unsure of his purpose. But given the tremendous amount of fan support for Apex Legends over the last year, one would hope he has fully realized his purpose by

Given the holiday’s emphasis on coupledom, it makes sense that these games would seize this opportunity to host duos events. While it’s obvious that most people who are going to partner up in these modes aren’t actually couples, it provides a fun take on the collective obsession with couple

apex legends 2.0 Legends made a powerful debut Q1 of 2019, EA opting for a bold "no marketing" tactic. Embodying the trends of 2019 by building on the popular battle royale genre, Apex Legends released on Windows, PS4, and Xbox One for free. Streamers contributed to the game’s success, but players stuck around due to the unique incorporation of ability-based heroes and a wonderfully addicting set of movement mechanics. Apex barely edges this one out due to Respawn’s slow-moving developmental support, but the fact that competitives and casuals alike have stuck around is a testament to the game’s impressive fundament

Even after being nerfed, the Charge Rifle is easily one of the strongest and often abused weapons in the game right now. We don't necessarily want to leave it behind entirely, but given the way most players seem to regard it at the moment, it still clearly needs some balanc

Wraith's abilities allow her to both hear more clearly when enemies are approaching her while also giving her a powerful evasive option. Her ability to "enter the void" provides a powerful evasive maneuver and a functional flanking option. Combine with her portal erecting ultimate and you have arguably the best flanker in the ros

His arsenal of "decoy" special moves makes facing a good Mirage a hassle. His ability to cast a decoy towards an area is a good way to reveal an enemy's location. On top of his invisibility ability, he is an excellent character for those who prefer a "spy" charac

In my own experience, outside of competitive play, it almost seems as though players' mains reflect aspects of their real-life identities. That’s not to say that all Revenant mains are evil people. However, they may, for example, see themselves as having a dark side they can express through this charac

Her ultimate ability "rolling thunder" is a powerful airstrike which operates as a power area denial style move. Forcing enemy teams inside of buildings its an excellent tool to prevent enemies from approaching your team or using a common choke po

If Tinder’s not working out, there’s OKCupid, JDate, Farmers Only or whatever niche site is hot right now. To find a duo partner, on the other hand, a person is limited to a smattering of random Discords and game-specific sites. Initially, you know very little about the person you could be squadding up with. Maybe they’re cool and your relationship will morph into something special. But also, maybe they’ll rage and break their computer the first time they l

There's been a Skullpiercer-shaped hole in the hearts of Wingman & Longbow fans since the Skullpiercer was removed from the loot rotation. Or more astutely, there are some heads lacking holes because of it. And that's a prob

Players’ interest in these characters is a direct result of the care that the Respawn puts into developing them. Whether it’s Wraith’s forgotten past, Bloodhound’s mystique or Mirage’s use of humor to hide his insecurities, fans develop deep attachments to these multi-dimensional characters. These bonds inspire further creativity as the characters become the subjects of memes, fan art and cosp

World's Edge isn't the worst map, all things considered, and it's been a pretty fresh change of scenery after two entire seasons spent picking apart King's Canyon. However, it has already grown a bit stale, and does possess its fair share of glaring iss

Technically now the "third" version of what is perhaps the perfect game, the Resident Evil 2 remake updates a classic and shows developers that narrative-driven content can succeed without the need for multiplayer and microtransacti

Players have been particularly outspoken concerning its problematic loot distribution and the prevalence of wide, open, and consequentially boring spaces to battle in. Wherever Respawn takes us next, we're hoping they took some notes concerning what didn't work with World's E4seasons.pngu0026size=850x0u0026force_jpg=1
