The last few months have been bloody brilliant for RPGs, a period stuffed with massive, triple-A titans, gorged on inflated budgets and turgid with years of work from dozens or even hundreds of people, that have competed to devour hours upon hours of my time.

It's a really encouraging precedent for doing similar things in the future.I... Read more ›

Many aspects of the title were controversial, from the sparsely populated open world to the relatively basic quest design, but the title's performance was perhaps the most obvious missed target. All preview materials for Redfall showcased 60fps gameplay, with relatively unambitious visuals, and yet the final game targeted 30fps on consoles, with occasional frame-rate... Read more ›
