As the colder weather sets in, I’m starting to think more about future projects and have a few ideas lined up for Novara. For now, though, I’m back at it again—building another PC. This time, I’m aiming for a retro approach.

At first glance, Selaco might seem like just another retro-styled shooter, but it quickly reveals itself to be much more. While it pays homage to the classic FPS games of the '90s, Selaco integrates modern world-building, weapon dynamics, and enemy AI to create a unique and engaging experience. One of the standout aspects of Selaco is its world-building. The game creates an immersive atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and fresh. The environments are detailed, with every nook and cranny adding...

I bought Selaco. I mean, you have read me writing about it before. I am happ ythat it is finally available (even though it is still Early Access, and that means for me normally to not push it to much). I had played the demo some time ago, and hope that i can dive into the whole game at the coming weekend. But i have seen a Youtube Video from a Creator i normally trust, and that seems to be overwhelmingly positive. Might have some more to say about that at the end of the month.

Fida Puti Samurai delivers a thrilling and fast-paced FPS experience that will resonate strongly with fans of classic boomer shooters. The game excels in providing a nostalgic yet fresh gameplay feel, despite lacking modern mechanics like sliding or dodging.

I've jotted down some thoughts on Gamer Gate 2 and Sweet Baby Inc., but these topics are too complex for casual opinion-sharing. Fundamentally, I envision gaming as inclusive as possible, and honestly, I thought we had reached that point by now. Some of the discussions around these topics have brought up issues I hadn't considered in years - I thought we had moved past them. This isn't about 'wokeness' or anything like that, my gaming taste is somewhat abstract. For instance, I couldn't get...

Dragon's Dogma 2... the microtransaction plague. I really don't get it. Why the need to shoehorn microtransactions into a single-player RPG? And why isn't the gaming community rising up against it? It's like the publishers, developers, or studio bosses are slowly boiling the frog. It might be a combination of factors contributing to this trend. When did this really happen? Capcom is cracking down on mods, yet they're more than willing to let you pay for every little thing. Just like the...

Embracer kills Deus Ex developer team at Eidos Montreal - I was somewhat optimistic about Embracer because they promised to revive so many beloved franchises, especially for me. But seriously, what's going on over there? You're becoming increasingly unprofessional. And you've pretty much squandered any goodwill you had with everyone I know.

As I suspected, I can't quite immerse myself in Baldur's Gate 3. It's nothing against the game, it's just not my preferred setting. It's unfortunate for me, but I bought it nonetheless, doing my part to support the studio. Currently, my alternative gaming choice is Diablo 2 Resurrected. I'm currently in the middle of Act 2, and despite the controls feeling a bit stiff, the game holds up remarkably well. Another intriguing option is Helldivers 2, giving off strong Starship Troopers vibes. It...
