Deep Dive #8: The Endless Horrors of the Hivemind

Dauntless has come a long way since its closed beta, and seeing the developers turn it from a "poor man's Monster Hunter" into a viable competitor of the same is a testament to their passion and dedication.

Desperados III is one of the greatest Real Time Tactics (RTT) games ever released and should be viewed as a benchmark for developers working on RTT titles for decades to come.

Battlerite is a good game, albeit one without a community to sustain it

Absinthia Is a surprisingly good traditional RPG, albeit one that seems uncertain about its demographic, and as a result, fails to appeal to a large audience. 

Supplice greatest strength and weakness is its reliance on nostalgia, and as a result, while it is likely to appeal to gamers from the 1990s, beyond giving a glimpse of "how things used to be", it has very little to offer anyone born within the past 20+ years.

The Cycle: Frontier was a good idea executed poorly

Scars Above perfectly combines the charm of an early 2000s liner shooter with the power and performance expected of a 2023 release in a way that few other titles have been able to mimic.

While MORDHAU takes itself more seriously than Chivalry 2, there is still plenty of room for humour and hijinks in this medieval slasher.

TerraScape is barely a game in the literal sense of the word, and yet it could very well be one of the best casual games released since Farmville.
