I fear Grow a Garden's entire premise was ruined for me less than 30 minutes in when I was given a gigantic watermelon by another player, which then turned out to be worth 800,000 sheckles. I was still barely scraping 1,000 from my handful of strawberry and blueberry bushes, and in a flash the joys of 'number go bigger' had been felled at the hands of a kind stranger.Even before...

Messaging apps are one of the banes of my existence. Every time I connect with someone new it seems there's some back and forth on what app we should use to communicate. Often a part of this includes explaining to folks why I don't use things like WhatsApp, due to the mix of ownership, security, and general distaste. It's a horrible conversation where I look like an elitist jerk, but...

When the original Death Stranding comes up in conversation, you can count on someone citing its tedious writing, pace-destroying exposition dumps, and reckless use of unexplained proper nouns as the biggest hurdle to enjoying it. Fair enough, but I submit that nothing sucked more in Death Stranding 1 than the menus.Kojima's first apocalyptic hiking sim had dozens of tiny annoyances that chipped away at my patience over two playthroughs totaling...

Just over a week ago, after devoting half my Sunday to delivering packages across the continent of Australia in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, I went to bed with a dull ache behind my temples. I wrote it off as a likely symptom of the usual suspects: maybe I hadn't drunk enough water, or by snacking my way through the afternoon instead of having a proper meal, by the...

Discord is pretty much the communications platform for gamers these days. Text, voice, video, shared screens, specialized servers: Discord does it all.
