This happened to myself recently with two games that I greedily bought without a second thought — Vampyr and Hollow Knight when it released on Switch . Both games I was immensely looking forward to and with both I hit the same wall. No matter how often I tried playing, every attempt to pick up the controller was met with my mind split between disinterest and intrigue. It becomes hard to tell if the brain is responding in a Pavlovian way for the shiny new toy or there is actual enthusiasm buried under the loss of focus for both games. Luckily it was the latter. There are, of course, times where a game is just not for you, but it was a relief knowing it was just a matter of time.

These items are fragile and break after one use , meaning The Knight will need to replace them whenever one is used to advance their progress and make their way to The Abyss. Luckily for players, there are multiple ways to find a Simple Key. None of them are incredibly difficult, though some can be easily mis

For most who play games, this feeling is completely understandable, unless you’re one of the few super-humans that can game for ludicrous amounts of time (looks at all streamers) then this happens to the best of us. It’s unfortunate when looking forward to a game only to be completely put off by it or feel disinterest in said game. No matter how bad you wanted to play it, it might just not be the time; a blockade. What does one do then? When having waited to buy ‘x’ game only to find disinterest; not everyone can afford games on a weekly basis and there's a massive selection to choose from. The first advice would be to tough it out. Maybe that game isn’t the one for now, but at least there are fallbacks until that moment of inspiration hits.

It’s nice finding that footing to play the games we knew we would love. It doesn’t always work out, but in my case it did and can for anyone. I look forward to the dynamic bloody streets of Vampyr or maybe some dungeon crawling through a labyrinth of a nest for a Hollow bug world (I’m honestly shook how good Hollow Knight is). My best advice: try and tough it out, be patient and know that eventually that feeling might come around. After all, you wouldn’t have bought the dang game otherwise.

The first thing that most people will notice about Hollow Knight is its deceptively charming art style. The insects in the world of Hollow Knight are anything but scary, and almost make players feel warm and cozy... until they've been beaten within an inch of their life, that

"There's a new showrunner, and they've got a very simple brief, which is to reboot the show, go back to concentrate on the Ichabod and Abbie thing, which was the strength in the beginning.

"The character of Walter Bishop was just a gift to any actor, but also the concept. The relationships that were created, which I think ultimately were the strength of the show, the family relationship between Walter and Peter... It was a total joy. I've done other great shows, but that one was so special in an actor's li

Beneath the sewers of the Royal Waterways lies the Ancient Basin. This dark, dank area is eerily empty and desolate. The few things that roam these halls include infected bugs and the remains of a lost king

The third Simple Key can be found in the Ancient Basin, but this one is very easy to miss compared to the previous two. To reach it, head into the lowest part of the area , where the Mawlurks like to shoot The Knight with goop, and continue to the right until they find the Mawlurk corp

"I think it's a very positive story. Because we never know, do we? You know how we can get depressed and think, 'Oh I've turned 40, my life is over.' This can happen to all of us... I feel incredibly lucky, but I think it's a testament to not giving up. All of us can get to the stage where we say, 'That's it I've had it. Look at my face, it's not what it used to be.' But it's really an attitude thi
