I used to resent Diego, and it wasn’t just because I was already overwhelmed with school, work, and everything else that comes with being young. He’d introduced me to Darkest Dungeon, a game that was intensely stressful and built around creating a constant sense of dread. Each time I played, it felt like deliberately stepping into a panic attack disguised as a gothic horror story. But despite the suffocating atmosphere and the game’s bleakness, something changed. Looking back, Diego didn’t actually do anything wrong. He gave me a gaming experience I’ll never forget – one that still fills me with a strange combination of respect, fear, and wonder, even years later.

Most games guide players with a general storyline or path, but they usually don’t rush you. You can take your time exploring every corner of the map, or race to the end – the choice is yours! These games don’t tell you how to play; they let you discover your own approach and enjoy the experience in a way that feels natural to you.

You can quickly get around Starsand Island using either Bus Stops or Teleporters. Both options are faster than driving, instantly taking you to your chosen location. Keep in mind, though, that these stops only cover certain areas, so you’ll still need to use them fairly often to reach everywhere.

Fans of the original manga were thrilled with the anime adaptation, amazed that their beloved series was brought to life so well. Since the success of Demon Slayer, the animation studio ufotable has become incredibly popular, so every new project they announce instantly grabs attention.

I’ve seen a lot of excitement online as fans have been following the God Valley story bit by bit each week. Now, it looks like everyone will soon be able to get a physical copy! Volume 114 of One Piece, called ‘The God Valley Incident,’ has a confirmed release date, and we’ve gotten a first look at the cover – it features the iconic Rocks Pirates, which is really cool.

Unfortunately, unsettling incidents like this have happened before in the gaming industry, even at another Ubisoft office. In 2020, Ubisoft Montreal received reports of a hostage situation, which thankfully turned out to be a false alarm. However, it understandably caused significant fear and anxiety.

With the 30th anniversary of Pokemon just around the corner, fans are incredibly excited! Celebrations will kick off on Pokemon Day at the end of February with announcements about what’s coming next for the series. This anniversary is especially meaningful for one lucky person, as they also happen to be turning 30!

I’ve gathered a collection of truly immersive game worlds for you to explore. Each one features rich environments that tell stories on their own, tons of side quests to discover, and stunning visuals. They all have unique landscapes and styles, so the scenery will always stay fresh and interesting. Let’s get started and embark on a virtual adventure!

What’s amazing about the Pokémon fanbase is how creatively fans express their love for the series. Over the past thirty years, artists of all kinds have shared their work inspired by Pokémon. A recent example is a fan who designed red envelopes with horse themes to celebrate the Lunar New Year and Year of the Horse. This shows how the franchise continues to inspire creativity and excitement, with fans constantly finding new ways to showcase their passion through Pokémon designs.
