Nostalgia or Magic – Perhaps They Are One and the Same
My personal history with RPGs and Final Fantasy is pretty easily summarised: It’s a love story. The first time I played a Final Fantasy game was when I was around twelve to thirteen years old. Camping out at my cousin’s place during summer vacation, they had just bought the brand-new title Final Fantasy VII. I
Nothing but extreme opinions – but does it have to be that way?
Spoiler alert: It really doesn’t! I few weeks ago I played the Anthem demo for two weekends in a row and was pretty much immediately hooked. The game has fun combat, a beautiful scenery and not even the load screen bugs (of which I had surprisingly few to be fair though) could stop the enthusiasm.
GRIS – a journey through the pain
Have you ever felt a pain so deep you lost your voice? Have you ever felt like you lost the ability to move, that you were swept away by even the smallest winds? Have you felt so alone and anxious that the world was grey and empty and everything important seemed to crumble away beneath
I hold the patience of stone and the will of stars – Video Game Music With A Star Wars Twist
I have written several posts about my favourite video game soundtracks before. This time I thought I’d do a less general one and focus down on what I love musically about just one game: Star Wars The Old Republic. The Old Republic is a Star Wars MMO made by Bioware that came out late in
Finding your way like nobody else – First impressions of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey
Early access has it’s ups and downs. Clearly it is amazing to not have to wait any longer and jump into a game as soon as possible. On the flip side though: If you have an issue, there are not many people around that can help you. Luckily I found the solution to my issues

So this is mainly

Of Nostalgia And Disappointments – And The Occasional Gem Of A Game
I was thinking with what “this game is so great because” reason I should start when writing a blogpost about Divinity: Original Sin 2. Romances perhaps? It’s been a staple in many of my favourite games and even though I don’t feel it’s a super important feature in a good game it is nonetheless one
Spreading the word
We’ve had some great feedback to our last blog post and received amazing recommendations which I felt were only right to share with you all. Some I’ve heard of, other I played myself and all sound really great. Before I list the recommendations, I want to add a video by Pop Culture Detective that Rahel
“Ah, music, a magic beyond all we do here” – More Favourite Gaming Soundtracks
A little over half a year ago I wrote a blog entry about some of my favourite video game soundtracks and why I love those particular pieces. I had to cut myself off to not turn it into an endless post with 50+ recommendations, but now, a few months later I thought it might be
