    When a Game's daily dose is just right.

    Anyone here who still plays Fallout Shelter? Arguably the best game anyone can have on their mobile, without all that 'need online'/PVP/'pay me money you freeloading ingrate' bollocks. Of course it's not perfect, it's a city-building game, which isn't for everyone. But what is interesting is...

    When a Game Remasters Juuuuuuust right

    Fixing original bugs, performance issues, etc. is of course an essential part, but also anything that adds interesting new content is appreciated, although it should be optional to the original experience. Loved Tomb Raider: Anniversary, Shadow of the Colossus, Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the...

    When a Game Remasters Juuuuuuust right

    What makes a remaster? Other than the urge to release something as a result of being out of ideas. Okay bad question to start with. Let's try this, what makes a remaster work? By right, the term itself means modernizing something old with new conventions, which could mean all sorts of...

    Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

    Hey guys, hope you could help identify the games from my descriptions. From what I recall, Game A was a game about pirates, supposedly.It had a Red Team and Blue Team, one side was invading the other's fortress thing of sorts, and every match starts out with the invading team coming in on a...

    When a Game Replays Juuuuuuust right

    How does a game keep getting you to do the same thing over and over, and then somehow gives you that urge to do that same thing all over again? Especially in the case of Single-Player games, how does a game that you finish give you that urge to get back to it? Even though you're essentially...

    When a Game Concludes Juuuuuuust right

    Uncharted 4 was juuuuust right as both a game ender and series ender, at least for Nathan Drake's character. The earlier Final Fantasies could also be thrown in there if we're going for "storybook" type endings. I'd rather have a game avoid cliff hangers unless it's known as a planned...

    When a Game Concludes Juuuuuuust right

    How does a game have a 'good' ending? To clarify, I'm not referring to that whole good/bad/non-canon ending scenarios that often pop up in games that do the whole multiple ending thing. Rather, the whole idea of how an ending concludes a game experience. Like seriously, what makes a...

    The Good kind of Voice Acting.

    Actually it kinda looked like that but with different characters. Also was on a basic cable network I believe. It was quite a while ago, like a couple years so I have few specifics to recall.

    The Good kind of Voice Acting.

    I didn't even bother to check what it was other than it was incredibly modern looking, as in unrecognizable in any way shape or form of characters, setting, etc. The characters were literally screaming every line back and forth in that "hey this is awesome ain't it kids?!?!" kind of way. The...

    The Good kind of Voice Acting.

    Modern cartoons make me physically ill to listen to. At least the old ones had fairly normal sounding characters. Now I turn on a Saturday morning cartoon and it's literally noise pollution, or at least from what little I could stand to watch. As for games and movies, as long as the...

    The Good kind of Voice Acting.

    Boredom is a strange thing, you either find something to fix it, sleep it off, or trot along until something like this post happens. For today I humbly ask the Escapist Forum folks, what makes Voice Acting well...good. Not just any kind of 'good', but the kind that actually sticks in your...

    Getting people to play games

    You're probably more than familiar lots of games you love, so much so that you'd probably tried getting people around you to play it. And it works, well...40% of the time, every time. This is especially notable for games that come with reps of having toxic armies of t***s ruining the...

    The fault of the Game

    This has microtransactions written all over it. The F2P is a lie!

    The fault of the Game

    As you may or may not know, Valve recently just announced a new game...trailer, for a game called 'Artifact'. With the trailer concluding in the words, 'The Dota Card Game'. ...now, this is usually the part where some will brush it off with an 'eh', or start spilling outrage like most of the...
