Edge: It’s curious what can happen when you don’t write something. There are obvious things, like you don’t get paid, and nobody reads it, but sometimes, as in the case I’m about to describe, the thing you didn’t write gets more interesting for not having been written; as though it’s silently accruing wisdom while shuffling through magazines in the gloomy waiting room of pre-existence.
The Outerhaven writes: Remnant II: The Forgotten Kingdom, is a solid expansion of Remnant II, albeit a short adventure that adds more lore to the series and will beckon players back.
Eiyuden Chronicle is finally here, and The Nerd Stash points out the game's comparison to Suikoden, as well as the love Yoshitaka Murayama put into it.
Social media was set ablaze over people saying gaming in 2024 is in a rut, but is there any merit to it? Not in my opinion. Let’s discuss
Gaming has been great. The industry however has been taking hits here and there. Nintendo is prepping for next gen, Sony has no first party, and mcsft has...who knows? I guess that's why it seems like gaming is in a rut for some. 3rd party and indies has been amazing though.
Personally I'm enjoying the sh out of gaming these last few years. All these great games, it takes me back to snes ps1 days where there was so much variety. In all my gaming years I think the ps3/360 was the worst of it. It was first person shooter after first person shooter, variety went out the window because that's when development really started rising for most devs even indies. I think all 3 console makers have done well with helping indies out lately to an extent. The variety started coming back during ps4 Era and now it's full blown. I just picked up eiyuden 100 heroes and man this sh takes me back. An actual jrpg releasing these day. I thought it was the end after only like 10 of them released for ps3 and 360(not literally but it was slim pickings)
we had a few hits this year alreadyz so im not sure where this "gaming is in trouble" comes from lol
and theres still alot more to come
It'll change when women change it themselves by making their own games and not sitting feeling entitled expecting men to do everything for them only to complain that they don't like the result.
Only women can make a game that they like. If the desires of women made any sense to men, then dating them would not be 90% as difficult as it is.
Another huge problem with this entire "feminazi" movement in gaming is that a lot of women actually like the most of the portrayals of women in games that are often the target of attack by feminists, like Princess Peach and Zelda. Most women I know like the characters and have nothing bad to say about them. These pseudo feminist, on the other hand, attack Nintendo repeatedly for their portrayals of the characters because they aren't the star action heroes in their game and they often have to be saved. Many women love the idea of being a peaceful princess respected for her humility getting saved by a hero. I guess those women's interests are invalid.
Again this? I expected more from Edge.
Nobody cares.
