I’d like to go back to what I mentioned at the beginning of this piece. A month and a bit into Genshin and I’m still signing in on the regular. I’m dying for another Elemental Crucible-esque event where I can partner with random players and boot around some hilichurls in all-out cooperative mayhem. I know I can play the rest of the game in co-op, but again — I like the single-player parts being single-player. That’s a great thing about Genshin — it recognizes that balance between experiencing a story on your own and exploring the world around it with other people. I think that would be great for Fable in particular — maybe Bowerstone is an MMO-esque hub where you can flick a switch and all of a sudden, boom! Marketplace, flog your trinkets and bullshit for coin, the more you rip people off the better. Flick the switch back and all of a sudden, boom! NPCs are the only people bothering you, and you can just ignore them if you w

Additionally, gaming avatar immersion if Team Snakemouth has completed certain optional content beforehand, they will also have access to two other quests. One of these features one of the toughest boss battles in the game, proving that the Wasp King really isn't the end of Bug Fabl

PlayStation Plus subscribers on PS5 can play Uncharted 4: A Thief's End right now, but they can't access Nathan Drake's previous adventures through the PS Plus Collection right now. Sony gave away Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection for free to help keep people entertained during the COVID-19 pandemic, but like with Shadow of the Colossus , adding the game to the PS Plus Collection would be great for those that missed out on the opportunity. Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection features the original three Uncharted games, widely considered some of the best PS3 games ever made, and so it would significantly up the value of a PlayStation Plus subscription for PS5 us

Once players complete the quests "My Speciality" and "I Wanna Get Better!" they'll receive a request from Aria in the Golden Settlement to deliver a Queen's Dinner to Venus. Players must earn the recipe for the Queen's Dinner itself by completing a separate quest. As stated above, recipe requires both a Crisbee Donut and Tangy Carpaccio to m

What follows is a long-winded fetch quest that culminates in Vi gifting some Red Paint to Jaune, finally putting aside their familial quarrels. Afterwards, Vi will unlock the Sharing Stash skill. This can hea the entire party, along with curing poi

Another game that's had its fair share of development issues, Skull and Bones generated plenty of excitement for its potential appearance at Ubisoft's E3 2021 showcase, but just last month the publisher announced another delay for the project. Because of the timing of the announcement, it seems like Ubisoft wanted to get ahead of the rumors surrounding Skull and Bones ' appearance at E3 and temper expectations. The publisher has plenty of other games to talk about for its show, but it's a shame that it seems its highly anticipated pirate adventure won't be one of them. Skull and Bones has been pushed back to 2022 or 2023, so there's still much to be seen before the game finally relea

What better way to wind down after a long journey than by playing some games within a game? At some point during Chapter 6, the Termacade will open shop in the conspicuously vacant building in the Ant Kingdom. Unfortunately, the selection isn't all that great. The Termacade offers a whopping two games to p

For some reason, Genshin has me constantly wondering about the new Fable game that Playground Games is working on. We know barely anything about this, mind. All of the good stuff appears to be locked behind a big fat Demon Door. One thing we do know, though, is that loads of people reckoned it was going to be an MMO. This was quickly debunked by Xbox insider Klobrille back in July, which is fair enough. New Fable’s not an MMO. We get the pict

One of the many games delayed into 2022, Hogwarts Legacy is unlikely to make an E3 2021 appearance . Despite initially planning to release later this year, it seems like there's still a ways to go in the game's development. There is a handful of Warner Bros. games that fans are itching to see including Hogwarts Legacy , Gotham Knights , and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League , but the only game the studio will be showing at E3 2021 will be Back 4 Blood . Some fans might hope for another look at Hogwarts Legacy in the form of a "one more thing"-type announcement, but that seems unlik

I don’t reckon this option should be everywhere, either. It would be great for some areas to be exclusively single-player. Maybe we could have a designated PvP arena off in the shithole known as Aurora. The main thing here is that it’s a game designed to be experienced as a single-player narrative that takes partial credence from MMO design, where even when you’re on your own you can feel as if you’re playing something with an active and tangible community. This is nice with Genshin, but it would be particularly brilliant for something like Fable, where everything is just — forgive me for using this usually lazy but in this case especially accurate word — _ fun
