Have you ever had that moment when you and another car are racing to get the last parking spot near a store? Have you thought to yourself that this would make for a great video game if it also featured rockets and collisions and the mechanics of musical chairs? If so, well, maybe you are […]

Fans and game devs debate Diablo II Resurrected’s recently added Warlock and its impact

You would think that adding an all-new class to an old game like Diablo II: Resurrected would be a happy event, but then you also likely have never experienced ARPG players in public forums and subreddits, who primarily appear to be the angriest of human calculators. That appears to be the case among players of the game, […]

Star Citizen discusses plans for variety and gameplay for industrialist gamers

It takes all kinds for internet spaceship sandboxes like Star Citizen to hum, and one of those kinds is the industrialist player: the rock cruncher, the space trucker, the material and manufacturing magnate.

‘We believe [Nightingale] has a future,’ Inflexion says as it adds crossplay and an 80% off sale

I was surprised yesterday to realize that Nightingale had patched up on my Steam Deck without a peep from the devs, but I had only to be patient: Inflexion has now dropped a Steam post as well as a video explain what’s up. And what’s up is the co-op survival sandbox RPG’s second birthday since […]

Vague Patch Notes: MMORPGs are less different than you think

Robert Frost’s poem The Road Not Taken was published in August of 1915, and it has endured an immense popularity since then. Many people can quote the last couplet of the poem (“I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference”), and for years the title alone conjures images of […]

Massively Overthinking: If you could delete one class or skill from your favorite MMORPG…

This week’s Massively Overthinking is inspired by a tweet I saw from SMITE, of all games, where the Hi-Rez devs asked players to propose one god to delete from the game. Obviously, this is not a serious proposition, but in the aggregate, the answers can kinda show a trend in what people are tired of, […]

Multiplayer vacuum party game Roombattle (yes) opens a Steam demo ahead of March 25 launch

Every once in a while, into my inbox launches a game so ridiculous I just have to write it up, and today, that game is Roombattle, a “six-player vacuum-party-battler” that could not be winking harder about its very obvious pun name. Spanish developer Dust Games announced this afternoon that it’s launching March 25th, with a […]

Closed beta begins for Star Wrath, a new Gaijin sci-fi PvPvE extraction game about harvesting mats and DNA

Who’s ready for another PvPvE extraction title? Because that’s the new thing that Gaijin Entertainment and developer Targem Games is offering in the form of Star Wrath, which puts players into spaceships to harvest resources and… the DNA of slain enemies. Ew. “In Star Wrath, players build and customize modular spacecraft, head out on high‑risk raids, battle in PvE […]

The Stream Team: I wanna be a cow in Project Gorgon

The irony of returning to Project Gorgon’s tutorial isle is that the story is based on returning to said isle after already completing and leaving — which is exactly what Massively OP’s MJ did in the past! How Inception-esque is that? Now she’s determined to work her way off (again) and experience the rich new […]

We’ve all been there. You’re dragging yourself through another so-so gaming year, playing the same old titles, all while telling yourself that it’s about to get a lot more interesting, because a game you’ve been eyeing should come out before too long.
