We've only had so much time with the Dark Heresy companions, but I thought I'd start ranking them anyway. They're shaping up pretty well - but who's worth keeping around? @owlcatgames.bsky.social youtu.be/Ic0EE6OiNFQ

In #ROUTINE you've got more to worry about than just survival. There's a whole undercurrent of cosmic and body horror - as well as the struggle to understand what it means to be isolated or connected. @rawfury.bsky.social youtu.be/9RQIZrefGIc?...

We've had Zero Parades for a while now, so it's time to discuss why it's so obsessed with copies, bootlegs, and nostalgia. Zero Parades is a game obsessed with what it means to follow up on Disco Elysium. @studiozaum youtu.be/A2fuyWT9bBM

It looks like Owlcat Games is coming for BioWare, as when I played The Expanse Osiris Reborn Beta, I found a beautiful action RPG with the potential to become a real successor to Mass Effect. @owlcatgames.bsky.social youtu.be/IZkWwISiIVY

Joy Malignant is a messy, weird play on Citizen Sleeper, not just with interesting visuals and a killer premise, but also a fascinating way for you to earn stats rather than invest in them youtube.com/shorts/HLCRj...

Sovereign Tower is a lovely choices-matter game, where your ability to choose the path of your kingdom is completely outshone by the chance to create your own round table of different flavours of wonderfully drawn knights. @sovereigntower.bsky.social @wildwits.games youtube.com/shorts/TO-V1...

The Life and Suffering of Prince Jerian asks you to make some hard decisions with few clues - and the interesting overlapping politics look like they'll make for a fascinating time youtube.com/shorts/vEwTh...

Corsair Cove is a marvellous pirate city builder with so many wonderful touches. It's great to build on the walls, go out on missions, and develop what kind of pirate society you want to be! @hoodedhorse.bsky.social @limbicgames.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/uloxY...

Prelude Dark Pain is a gritty fantasy turn-based tactical adventure like Darkest Dungeon crashed right into Final Fantasy Tactics, and it absolutely loves backstabs and knockbacks! youtube.com/shorts/OjBUI...

Time to promote some Next Fest Shorts! First up, Hollow Home, a very interesting-looking CRPG about survival during an all-too-real war, inspired by Disco Elysium. youtube.com/shorts/UQPDn...

Steam Next Fest has been and gone, but there are plenty of great games out there to check out! I've compiled my 25 favourite (and then some honourable mentions) to stick on your wishlists! youtu.be/bTGjMdG9Lgg?...

I tried out the Warhammer 40k Dark Heresy Beta from @owlcatgames.bsky.social to find out if it's as good as Rogue Trader - but already it's shaping up to be better! youtu.be/0_5-FdDYdeI

Zero Parades from Dead Spies from @zaumstudio.bsky.social is out soon, and I've got some thoughts - especially on just how compellingly downbeat so much of the experience. youtu.be/CkJo1sUVf68?...

Decopunk adventure awaits! I've compiled my full thoughts and feelings on the narrative RPG Aether & Iron from @seismicsquirrel.bsky.social in a pretty stacked video! youtu.be/zc4pAZVnYoo?...

Could Pokopia be the best Pokémon game? Check out my Pokopia as I explore just how good this cosy builder is! #Pokopia youtu.be/iiw1A-w4Lu8?...

My Esoteric Ebb Review deep dive is finally up! Considering Disco Elysium and DnD are close to my heart, let's just say I had some thoughts! youtu.be/KqziAnBVG_g

Time to start playing with shorts! I really enjoyed the Esoteric Ebb demo, and am looking forward to getting more hands-on with it! @esotericebb.bsky.social www.youtube.com/shorts/nRjfq...

Just a late in the day bump because I'm quite happy with how this turned out! #ZeroParades #DiscoElysium

I provide a completely biased impression of the Zero Parades for Dead Spies Steam Next Fest Demo, from ZA/UM, the studio behind Disco Elysium. I dip my toes a little in ZA/UM's history, do some comparisons and try to assess the game on its own merits. youtu.be/ZsVVtdEYUrw

So it begins! I got to take a look at a preview of Celestial Return, a stellar-looking narrative RPG from Metaphor Games. Looking at the game's first few chapters, I had thoughts of the world, dice-rolling and format. @metaphor-games.bsky.social @shorelinegames.bsky.social youtu.be/HmrXAlRBnzE
