  • Kingdom Come : Deliverance is basically if Skyrim took place in a ren faire. No magic, no fantasy, just dudes in armor completing tasks for the local lords and monasteries.

    Any of the fable games are decent at least; some are better than others. Personally felt the series peaked with 2.

    You likely already know about the elder scrolls games, but there was a clone series called Two Worlds that were… interesting? Not fantastic, but good ideas and worth a shot.

    If you haven’t played all the Witcher games they are likely exactly what you’re looking for. Personally haven’t played 1, but 2,3 are excellent.

    Dragons age 1 and inquisition are good. Might be too turn based for your preference as the fights involve many party members.

    Then there’s the From soft games; darksouls, etc. No real story to speak of, but very dark medieval fantasy.




  • Bungie’s Halo soundtracks were iconic and can be laid at the feet of Marty and Michael.

    I had heard that Marty was difficult to work with, but it’s crazy that you wouldn’t try to retain the talent that got your brand to live in millions of people’s heads rent free.

    Even stranger from Sony’s perspective. If you bought an expensive race car and the first thing you start doing is throwing away the expensive parts in favor of cheaper ones, you no longer own a race car. You own something that looks like it, but can’t perform.






  • This whole situation feels like what Putin dreamed would have happened with Ukraine. A very public and brutal attack on civilians responded to with a disproportionate level of military force with the end result being the land of the initial aggressor belonging to the perceived victim.

    Putin had to invent an excuse, but he would have loved a reason such as this. Combined with Israel possessing one of the foremost intelligence agencies in the world and Egypt warning of an impending attack; this feels like, if not planned, a welcome event for the current Israeli administration.
