That Bethesda Game Studios as a developer is no stranger to delivering masterpieces is a bit of an understatement, but even the best of the best games you’ll ever play will have flaws. Even in the last decade (or a little over a decade), for instance, from the ridiculously high highs of Skyrim to the relatively lower (but still pretty darn high) highs of Fallout 4, BGS’ single player RPGs have had room for improvement in some areas, in spite of how excellent those overall packages have been.

I talk about the Void in Arcanum. I answer how we came up with the idea, how we planned to use it, and whether it would appear in sequels.Note: this video contains spoilers...as if I need to say that for a 20+ year old game.

By blending voxel worlds like the kind Minecraft uses with Valheim-inspired visuals, Enshrouded presents an intriguing survival action RPG. Though post-apocalyptic survival games aren't exactly uncommon, this one shows promise. Previewed by Henry Stockdale.

"Testament: The Order of High Human answers the question: “What would the phrase ‘quantity over quality’ look like if it were turned into a game?” The result is a tedious, frustrating, and cringe-inducing fantasy adventure RPG that goes on so agonizingly long with its bland and confusing story and god-awful combat that it turns its bad ideas into atrocious ones by sheer volume. Throw in an all-star roster of technical issues, and you’ve got the ultimate “Elder Scrolls, but make it hurt” tour de force that will haunt me for even longer than the dozens of hours it already has."

"Jagged Alliance 3 is a smartly-built, action-packed throwback tactical extravaganza that I enjoyed the whole way through. Its madcap sense of humor is very hit or miss – for me, it's usually miss. But for the most part, that doesn't hurt its ability to tell a story with just enough intrigue to keep you guessing, while not overcomplicating things too much. The huge variety of distinct characters, hand-built tactical maps, and objectives assure that a long campaign never goes stale, with limited but meaningful merc progression that let me build my dream squad and play almost exactly how I wanted to, with the added tension of trying to keep them alive through each combat encounter. If you know your way around a squad management game you may want to turn the campaign difficulty up a notch for your first playthrough, but even when you're rolling in cash, this lead-slinging blow-out is a hell of a good time."

"Choice and Consequence" is a phrase often used by videogame marketing. It is used to say "what you do will matter". But often it is demonstrated poorly. And often it is even poorly understood by the devs as well. "Choice and Consequence" isn't 2 things, it's 4.

Having spent some time honing its craft in the Soulslike genre, with its next outing, Deck13 is looking to deliver something different. Atlas Fallen is promising a fantasy action RPG setting that sets itself apart from the studio’s past outings in more than a few ways, whether that its promise of a greater emphasis on fast-paced and flashy combat, its focus on fast movement and traversal mechanics, larger and more open environments to explore, or the ability to experience the entirety of its post-apocalyptic offerings in 2-player co-op.

I think it is a good idea for almost *any* game maker right now to delay a game right now to avoid Baldur's Gate 3 ...
That game will be like a gigantic magnet, I think.

I do wonder whether it'll be there on the Games Com ?
