Born for Media

Hi everyone! I'm Dustin and I love #gaming. I sometimes write about them. A few of my favourites: -The Last of Us -Mass Effect -The Witcher -RDR2 -Life is Strange -Baldur's Gate 3 -Detroit -Persona -Alan Wake -Cyberpunk -Dragon Age -GTA Looking for mutuals to get a nice feed started on here 🤝

Gears of War: E-Day is a fantastic action game, with the emphasis firmly on action. Blood practically splatters off the screen during its countless spectacular action sequences, which never fail to impress. But while the action lived up to my high expectations, the story didn’t. My full review 👇

Silver Pines credits rolled! Really loved the exploration, oppressive atmosphere, and sense of discovery. I was always looking forward to entering new areas and seeing more of its stunning art style. Combat was a bit clunky, but everything else more than made up for it. Full review soon ✍🏼

Fuck man…BioWare has always been one of my favorite studios. Mass Effect is the best trilogy ever made, and the second game is my all-time favorite. I’ll never forget the countless moments their storytelling left me in awe. Thank you, BioWare. 💔

Gears of War E-Day credits rolled! This was all very nostalgic, brought me back to the old days when I was still kicking Locust butt with an old friend. The action was as good as I remembered. The story didn't manage to grab me as much as it did back in the day, though. Full review soon ✍️

Just realized the clocks go back one hour end of the month. One hour more to wait on gta vi

Mondays 😞

Listen to this man's wise words. Songs of Glimmerwick is a great game well worth your time. And so is this review 👇🏼

Loving this already. That artstyle 🤤

Just got a review code for Silver Pines! Very excited to cover this soon

Yesterday I watched the 3 ep premiere for Avatar Seven Havens (new ATLA) It got me reflecting on a part of social media I wrestle w a LOT: Hate culture Felt the need to record some thoughts + spoiler free reactions to the show itself So if you enjoy my rambles, here ya go (last 55 sec = key pts)

Sometimes I get annoyed when I die in Gears of War: E-Day. But how can I stay mad when it's immediately followed by "dead ooman"?

I think every loading screen with tips in it should have a press X to proceed once it's ready. Let me read all those good tips in peace

I'm really liking the balance in my current rotation

As someone who has never dabbled in theses kinds of tactics games, Star Wars: Zero Company completely surprised me and won me over. It’s not without flaws, but it’s a terrific game nonetheless. Here’s my review! sightingames.wordpress.com/2026/10/07/r...

We are so back

Happy (releas)E-Day! See what I did there?

If I were to make a list of my gaming highlights of the year, Control Resonant would probably occupy multiple spots in the top three. Its combat had its ups and downs and never completely won me over, but it absolutely delivered the unforgettable moments I was hoping for. My full review 👇

Songs of Glimmerwick is full of charm and coziness. Kinda nice to enjoy some peaceful vibes after all that fighting in Control Resonant 😂

Control Resonant credits rolled! What a spectacle this was. Rarely has a game blown my mind this many times. It's like a surprise bag: you never know what you're gonna get. The things they pulled off on a technical level were stunning. That said, it's not entirely without flaws. Review soon ✍🏼

I was completely obsessed with Gears back in the day. Can't wait to jump back in. I already feel the nostalgia coming 🥹

Today we can officially say that GTA VI is coming NEXT MONTH!! 🥳

A bit later than I would've liked, but my video review of The Blood of Dawnwalker is finally live! Check it out here 👇

I've never been stoned but I imagine playing Control Resonant brings me very close to the experience

I can't help but feel that combat is always what stops Remedy games from reaching their full potential. The atmosphere, creativity and uniqueness of their games are mind-blowing, and I absolutely love that part. But combat is usually the weakest link, and unfortunately, it's always very present

Gimme dialog choices and I'm happy

Here we go 🔨

I love Theodora's arrogance 👑

Don't get it wrong, we are excited to review all the games we get access to but, this one happened to be on both of our most anticipated lists. Check out Jason's review of Well Dweller from @kylethompsondev.bsky.social: www.deargamers.net/reviews/well...

Cheeky lil' repost before I stop spamming you all with The Blood of Dawnwalker content.

It's The Blood of Dawnwalker day over at the humble establishment of Born for Media. Just posted my review, and the video version of my previous article about the game is now up too for anyone interested 👇

When a vampire bites a human, they create a new version of themselves. Not quite as strong, but a formidable competitor in the making. You could say The Blood of Dawnwalker was bitten by The Witcher. But does it step out of its shadow, or does the daylight still burn a little too brightly? 👇🏻

Currently writing the The Blood of Dawnwalker review and I'm grateful for how vampire games just open the door for a shitload of metaphors and puns. Really gives the writing some bite.

I love how the music subtly and fluently flows over in a different, suitable style when browsing through the different characters

Pulled the trigger. Sorry Three Houses, you'll need to wait a bit. Shiny new thing comes first

The Blood of Dawnwalker credits rolled! This will probably have the honor to be my GOTY at least until GTA VI arrives. What a game 🤩 it managed to excel at most of the things the Witcher excels at, so I couldn't ask for more. Amazingly written every step of the way. Full review soon ✍🏻

Me staring at Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, while I haven't even finished Three Houses yet. WHY am I like this? 😫

The Blood of Dawnwalker scared me during its intense prologue. Not because of the bloodsucking antics of vampire Brencis and his buddies, but because it introduces time slots as a resource. Strangely enough, what I feared most at first is exactly what I ended up wanting more of 👇

I saw quite some complaints about the combat in The Blood of Dawnwalker, but I'm actually really enjoying it. Biggest problems I have with it are the lock-on and camera but other than that it's not bad at all

QTP with your most anticipated upcoming games! (don't have to be something with a confirmed release date)

Some Loose Scraps #3 is live! This time I share thoughts about: The Blood of Dawnwalker, Saros and Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Vampires and the plague might not be Vale Sangora’s biggest problem, Saros' many...balls, and proof that I should probably never become a teacher 👇

I don’t know what everyone’s complaining about in The Blood of Dawnwalker. I’d happily give up some of my blood every two weeks if it meant I didn’t have to pay taxes

It's clear that The Blood of Dawnwalker has some issues, especially on the technical side of things. But so far it nails everything I find important in games: strong writing, interesting characters, a good story and choices with clear consequences. Loving this

Unfortunately, my vacation has come to an end. We had 10 fantastic, relaxing days which I really needed ⛱️ Coming back always has 1 advantage, though: more gaming. Time to start the Blood of Dawnwalker!

Forgot to set this to auto-publish this morning, but I finally played the remake of Resident Evil 4 and put down my thoughts on it! The original is one of my all-time favorites, so playing through this was an absolute treat! Here’s my review: sightingames.wordpress.com/2026/09/02/r...

Born for Media has been replaced with Born for Beers these 10 days 🍻⛱️
