Enshrouded Early Access Review
An expansive world, well-written lore, and decent base-building provide an enjoyable survival game alternative.

Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth Review
With a fantastic premise that earns its dual protagonist direction in Ichiban & Kiryu, major combat system refinements, plethora of engaging side activities in its new beautiful Hawaii locale, and developments that enrich the Yakuza-era legacy, Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth is one of the best games RGG Studio has ever made.

While Wandering Sword may appear to be an imitation at first glance, this entertaining Wuxia-style adventure is one of the most unique RPGs I've ever played, despite stumbles in localization and polish.

In Stars and Time is a thought-provoking RPG about life and family. What if you could spend the rest of eternity with your friends? What if you could spend the rest of eternity with your friends? What if you could spend the rest of eternity —

Persona 5 Tactica delivers a solid tactical RPG, that lands just shy of greatness

Tales of Arise - Beyond The Dawn Review
Tales of Arise - Beyond The Dawn is conceptually an interesting epilogue, but stale questing and trite plotting leave me apathetic to this unexpected expansion.

Like A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name Review
Although a solid entry, this title serves as an intermediary of Kiryu's actions between Yakuza 6 and Yakuza: Like A Dragon so its endpoint is inherently predictable and as enjoyable as it is, the narrative is relatively thin in exchange for a wealth of side content to pad it out.

Star Ocean The Second Story R Review
Star Ocean: The Second Story R has brought a cult classic into a new era. It’s been thoughtfully retooled, but it’s still packed with all the heart and soul of the original. Graphically, it’s gorgeous, and the new quests and features range from fair to fabulous. It’s one of my favorite video games in even finer form.

Just in time for Halloween, Little Goody Two Shoes takes players on a macabre jaunt through a not-so-friendly forest.

Front Mission 2: Remake Review
A rough localization and some familiarly frustrating RNG-related issues bog it down, but Front Mission 2: Remake is probably worth the headaches overall.
by Quinton O'Connor on 25 October, 2023
Despite the narrative not fully coming together in the end, as well as some repetitive gameplay structure, Crymachina manages to be a compelling RPG. Regardless of its uneven nature and short duration, I think it may leave a lasting impression on me - at least a little bit.

This turn-based horror RPG took its sweet time to full release, but it was well worth it with a captivating gameplay loop, a compelling battle system, and a stunningly beautiful visual aesthetic.

Lords of the Fallen has a well-crafted world, interesting stories, cool bosses, and plenty of player customization on offer. However, a frustrating dual-world mechanic holds back this RPG from achieving excellence.

Long Gone Days is a project that’s been in the works for many years. With grating hand holding, but a decent story and grounded characters, Long Gone Days is a good choice for those interested in a narrative-focused RPG.

Fate/Samurai Remnant takes advantage of a new, grounded setting, a fresh cast of characters, and a gripping narrative to serve as both an approachable gateway to Fate for newbies and a potent fan service vehicle for veterans.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai Review
A disappointing game adaptation for one of the best Dragon Quest spin-off series that possesses major structural and gameplay shortcomings.

Everhood Eternity Edition Review
Everhood just wasn’t as thought-provoking as the subtitle “An Ineffable Tale of the Inexpressible Divine Moments of Truth” might suggest. While I found some enjoyment in the later part of the game, it didn’t hit all the right notes for me.

Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless Review
If you liked previous Disgaea games — grinding your levels up to max, performing increasingly higher damaging attacks, and seeing a mass of numbers fill your screen — Disgaea 7 continues that trend and amplifies it further.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Review
Phantom Liberty itself is an all-time great expansion, taking all of the best elements of Cyberpunk 2077 and cranking them all up to eleven.
by Alex Donaldson on 20 September, 2023
Despite its unique weapon system and generally friendlier structuring, Lies of P hews a little too closely to its inspirations to rise above feeling like something of an also-ran. But even also-rans can be polished, attractive, and exciting experiences in their own right.
by Josh Tolentino on 13 September, 2023
Sea of Stars presents a potent mix of combat systems bolstered by a charming story and gorgeous graphical presentation that captures the essence of the turn-based classics.
by Paul Shkreli on 06 September, 2023
Starfield is wider, wilder, and more ambitious than I expected - but also shows surprising restraint in many areas. More than the sum of its parts, it's the best game of this type Bethesda has delivered.
by Alex Donaldson on 31 August, 2023
Virgo Vs The Zodiac is quite unique, and for the most part is better for it. Personally, I don’t see how a game that lets you ride an alpaca and purge heretics could’ve gone wrong. But the combat and systems don't shake up much over time.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a triumph, offering an incredible level of scope, depth, and reactivity that only comes around in role-playing games a couple of times a generation.
by Quinton O'Connor on 13 August, 2023
Atlas Fallen is an average action RPG with some interesting Momentum combat mechanics, a passable open-world, subpar presentation, and a disappointing narrative.
