Destiny’s Loot Is Great Because It Usually Has A Story To Tell
18.9.2024
I really miss Swordbreaker, a shotgun from the first Destiny game that became a staple of my loadout back in the day. Over the three years that I played Destiny, no part of my loadout felt as central to my identity as it did. I changed subclasses depending on the task before me, and I shuffled...

After farting around in Solstice trying to get some glow in our gear, break time’s over, Guardians. Maya Sundaresh is up to some creepy nonsense with the Vex, which means it’s time to put in that work again. And compared to the cakewalk Arena/Battlegrounds quests of Episode: Echoes, Encore:...

If you’re playing an open-world Ubisoft game, you can rest assured it’s going to take some time to complete. So it’s no surprise that Star Wars Outlaws—the very first open-world Star Wars title (no, MMOs don’t count)—is an extremely long game filled with tons to see and do. That goes doubly...
Star Wars Outlaws: The Kotaku Review
26.8.2024
As a big Star Wars fan and video game lover, I’ve long dreamed of a game just like Star Wars Outlaws: a massive open-world action game set in the Star Wars universe that would let me rub shoulders with Jabba the Hutt while freely exploring every inch of a planet like Tatooine. It’s wild that...

This Underrated And Immersive Shooter Series Is On Sale At The Moment
20.8.2024
In the early 2010s an odd little shooter by the name of Metro 2033 emerged out of nowhere.

Destiny 2 AFK Farming Has Gotten So Bad, Players Will Be Banned For It Now
19.8.2024
Destiny 2: The Final Shape is a good expansion with one particularly terrible exotic loot chase. The new exotic class items are powerful pieces of RNG gear that can be extremely tedious to chase, which is why lots of players instead rely on AFK macros to farm the loot for them. The epidemic of...

Splitgate 2 Feels Way Faster And More Conventional, And Not In A Good Way
16.8.2024
Splitgate 2 is fast. It’s the dominating thought of my hours spent sampling the sequel’s new maps, weapons, loadouts, movement, abilities, and more. Despite the fact that it literally chugged on my PC (my own setup’s inadequacy, not the game’s), everything about it was quick. I barely had time...
