Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream is the next step in the popular franchise. But does it have what it takes to keep players invested?

With Throne and Liberty's launch, Chris wants to examine how the game--for at least him--has revived the ancient MMO debate: Tab Targeting vs. Action Combat?

As a long-time fan of the Delta Force franchise, Chris took a whirl in the recent Delta Force Hawk Ops alpha. How does it stack up, especially compared to genre titans like Call of Duty or Battlefield?

Final Fantasy XIV is not a perfect game by any means, but that doesn't mean it's not worth playing. Here is a list of 10 reasons you should play it anyways!

The Steam Deck has been out now for half a year and compiled the 10 best RPGs to check out on Valve's handheld device.

Chris got really excited when the Kingdom of Amalur: Re-Reckoning was first announced. Now that he's gone hands on, he wanted to see what the major visual differences truly were - was this remaster worthy of the full release, or can you achieve the same results by modding the base game on PC?

Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris has its share of flaws, it's not a perfect game.I find that it's a rather generic RPG, with a nice paint job portraying it as Sword Art Online. It has the potential to be the perfect Sword Art Online game, if only Bandai Namco steps up to the plate and addresses some much-needed attention to certain aspects of the game.

As with all my articles, everything I say reflects my own experiences on my server, your mileage may vary and I’m sure there will be people in the comments vehemently denying what I say. That said, can we talk about Housing for a moment?

AION 7.0 is now live on the EU servers, bringing a new class, new areas, and a ton of changes along with it. Many of these changes are quality of life improvements, which should be a huge welcome for anyone currently playing AION. Unfortunately, the NA players still have some time to wait, but at least we get a glimpse at what’s to come. Fortunately, I got a chance to sit down and chat with NCSoft regarding the update, I’m here to share with you what they shared with me, enjoy!

I’ve played many MMORPG’s in my life, I’d venture to say most of them honestly, and I can truly say FFXIV has the best community bar none. But what makes it the best?

Just two weeks after launch of Shadowbringers we have our first content patch, and man was it awesome! Welcome aboard the Nostalgia train, buckle up and prepare for spoilers!

On the 28th of June, early access for FFXIV: Shadowbringers went live, consequently I lost a lot of time as I dove head first into the latest expansion for FFXIV. As I give my insight this week on a beautiful expansion, please share below your favorite bits of the expansion for us all to enjoy!

The term WoW clone gets thrown around a lot, but does it mean what people think it means, or are they using it as a derogatory comment? Not only have I’ve seen it the past few weeks in the comments of this very column, I see it from my friends as well, and frankly it’s sad. Comments aside, at least we only have Six days left until Head Start!!

When the game was first announced, I was immediately drawn to the design aspect. I had just finished playing through Bravely Second and was looking for that next big JRPG to fill the gap, the idea of Octopath fit the bill perfectly. The question, however, is did it fill that gap? The answer is yes and no, and here’s why.

More and more recently I’ve seen posts from both new and prospective players asking similar questions; what makes the game so great? How long does it take? Is this game for me? To be completely honest, the answers are quite subjective to each person.
