Getting Into The Mood For Gaming Can Be Tough Sometimes

This happened to myself recently with two games that I greedily bought without a second thought — Vampyr and Hollow Knight when it released on Switch . Both games I was immensely looking forward to and with both I hit the same wall. No matter how often I tried playing, every attempt to pick up the controller was met with my mind split between disinterest and intrigue. It becomes hard to tell if the brain is responding in a Pavlovian way for the shiny new toy or there is actual enthusiasm buried under the loss of focus for both games. Luckily it was the latter. There are, of course, times where a game is just not for you, but it was a relief knowing it was just a matter of time.

Created by Australian developer Team Cherry, Hollow Knight is a 2D Metroidvania action-adventure game that tells the story of an insectoid Knight that's set out to uncover the secrets of a long-abandoned underground insect kingdom called Hallownest. Team Cherry combined elements of games like Super Metroid, Celeste, and Dark Souls to create this challenging but rewarding experience where players must make there way into the depths of Hallownest, discover new regions, defeat bosses, and learn how to perfectly execute attacks and traver

There have been rumors that a Bloodborne 2 is in the works; we are hoping such claims are justified. The gothic nature of Bloodborne makes it an excellent addition to the Soulsborne series. It's characterized by faster, more aggressive combat, focusing around the usage of guns to stun enemies by interrupting their atta

When Telltale Games released the critically acclaimed first season of Telltale's The Walking Dead back in 2012, the video game landscape was changed forever. And while subsequent seasons never quite reached the heights of the first one, it didn't feel any less devastating when Telltale Games closed in 2018 , halfway through the development of Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season . Luckily, the season was later saved by publisher Skybound, and as a celebration of the series, lead to the development and release of a complete collection called The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Seri

But regardless of the number of notches the Knight has, this notch system forces players to pick and choose which charms to equip at any one time. This encourages players to change out their charm loadout through the game and to tailor their charm combinations depending on the situat

Thanks in large to the questionable monetization tactics that some of them employ, mobile games now account for a significant chunk of modern video game spending, with billions of dollars being spent across the App and Google Play stores each and every month. Flappy Bird was one of the earliest viral success stories in this regard, with its creator at one point raking in more than $50,000 a day through in-app advertisi

Last month, Sony surprised PlayStation Plus subscribers with a bonus PSVR game on top of the standard two PS4 games, a first for the subscription service in some time. Given that it was described as a bonus game, Sony made the point that fans shouldn't expect this to be a regular occurrence, only offering Shadow of the Colossus and Sonic Forces for the month of March. While Sony might begin adding PS5 games to the rotation once the new console release later this year, for now, fingers crossed that PSVR bonus games start to appear a little more frequen

It’s nice finding that footing to play the games we knew we would love. It doesn’t always work out, but in my case it did and can for anyone. I look forward to the dynamic bloody streets of Vampyr or maybe some dungeon crawling through a labyrinth of a nest for a Hollow bug world (I’m honestly shook how good Hollow Knight Lore|Https://Hollowknightportal.Com/ Knight is). My best advice: try and tough it out, be patient and know that eventually that feeling might come around. After all, you wouldn’t have bought the dang game otherwise.

With the world in the middle of a global pandemic that's led to travel restrictions, toilet paper shortages, and the closure of major events worldwide including E3 2020 being canceled , more and more people are being forced to self-quarantine, work from home, and avoid going out in public whenever possible. All this time at home means more time to play great games and catch up on the backlog of missed games, (though everyone should be putting their health and health of others first), so it's important that Sony brings the goods each month with PlayStation Plus for this and a variety of other reasons.
