This week, we’re highlighting the best demos you can play during Steam Next Fest, which runs from February 24th until March 3rd. We call this Wishlisted. I’ve never played 2001’s Gothic, developed by Piranha Bytes, but Sin has an article from 2016 about why it is “more believable than modern RPGs”. In that piece, she paints an absorbing picture of a magically quarantined penal colony, where three factions of prisoners enjoy an uneasy truce. In this crammed ocean vent of a setting, fights generally end in defeat rather than death, reputation isn’t just a points gauge, and the player…
Monster Hunter Wilds is finally here! It’s not a perfect hunt, but it moves the franchise forward in mostly the right ways. As the sixth core entry, Wilds delivers a sprawling, dynamic world, weather systems that genuinely shake up gameplay, and some of the most thrilling monster encounters the franchise has ever seen. But does it strike the right balance for both veterans and newcomers? After spending dozens of hours and earning the platinum trophy, I’d say it’s a strong effort, though it gets held back by a few missed opportunities. First of all, let’s discuss the main story. Unlike…

There’s no setting quite as iconic as Dungeons and Dragons’ Forgotten Realms. A sprawling high-fantasy world shimmering with magic and mystery, it’s become the backdrop for millions of virtual and tabletop adventures. While Mages of Mystralia isn’t a DnD game in name or setting, its overarching narrative is the brainchild of Ed Greenwood, the creator of the Forgotten Realms, and it wears its lineage on its sleeve. So if you, like me, are looking for yet another fantasy RPG in the wake of Baldur’s Gate 3 and Avowed, look no further: Mages of Mystralia is free right now. Mages of…

On a clifftop overlooking the coast, I stumble across a peculiar scene in Avowed. A skeleton sits on a chair, facing out towards an island decorated with jagged rocks that jut out from the ocean below. I realize that I’m looking at the final resting place of some mysterious person, and I’m immediately curious to know how they ended up here. A strewn bottle lies on the ground beside their feet on one side, while a lockbox sits on the other, appearing as if they’d hunkered down in this spot in preparation for… something. But what? As I walk closer…
