During high school, I was introduced to RTS games through Blizzard’s “Warcraft II”. Immediately, I was hooked. “Command and Conquer,” “Starcraft,” “Age of Empires,” and “Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds” all became enjoyable franchises that I played for many hours into my college years. During those years, PC gaming was synonymous with RTS for me. A return to playing games on consoles like the Gamecube and Wii diverted my attention from the genre, and when I was introduced to Steam, I spent little time playing RTSes. I did try to have our co-op group play an open-source RTS, Zero-K, but that was a disaster. The RTS that I have historically played all have single-player campaign modes. Multiplayer is possible, …

Tobe's Vertical Adventure Review comment
Darn, I was kind of hoping my experience with the game was the result of using an Xbox 360 controller with the horrible mushroom-style d-pad. Looks like it IS actually a problem with the game's implementation of input, and not the input device at fault.

Valkyria Chronicles 4 Review comment
The problem with dialog in Japanese games is the fact that Weebs demand LITERAL translations, instead of idiomatic localizations, like we got in the glory days of Ted Woolsey. The stilted exchanges we see in modern Japanese games are the way they are because that's how Japanese people speak. We should be glad that the original Japanese character names were Nipponized Western names, otherwise we'd be stuck with (more) Europan characters with Japanese names.

Firewatch Review comment
You choose various responses to make on the walkie-talkie to your fellow lookout lady, which then leads you to various areas on the map to explore, and which triggers various events. You explore areas and search for items, investigating and discovering various things. There really aren't any puzzles per se. But I am hesitant to label it a Visual Novel, seems more involved to me.

I'm kind of fuzzy on the gameplay section here. Do you do anything besides walk around and talk on the walkie-talkie? Are there any puzzles? We might have to reclassify this thing as a Visual Novel.

Looking at your backlog, I recommend you try Legend of Grimrock next. It's a different type of RPG than the ones you've been playing a lot lately, plus you need a change of pace from all the action games you're playing right now.

I don't see any reviews... This is most distressing!

You need to start rating some games you DON'T like. You're currently ranked as more generous than Chris!
