When it comes to the Star Wars franchise, I wouldn’t call myself a superfan but also I’m not a hater of it. I liked Fallen Order well enough, even if it had a few rough edges. Jedi: Survivor picks up right where that left off, building on the combat, expanding the world, and refining the … Read more
Soulslike games for beginners is a bit of an oxymoron because, let’s face it — they’re all so hard.
