Maybe you want to know why was Godfrey Banished, or the Cold Witches true identity? Then this is the video for you.

Reliving Memories of Pokémon Red, Blue & Yellow
Pokémon Red and Blue are two of the most fondly remembered games of all time, but is it all nostalgia, or are they still fun to play? That's what I set out to find. I played Pokémon Yellow until I got 151 Pokémon, and in doing so I found something I wasn't expecting too, a new reason to love these games all over again.

Elden Ring Is A Masterpiece
Elden Ring is one of the best games of all time, and I've heard a lot of people give it praise. A lot of the praise it receives I adamantly disagree with though. I also rarely hear people praising Elden Ring for the reasons I think it deserves though. This is my Elden Ring Critique, talking about it's open world and just how absolutely amazing the game and Fromsoft are.

A Look Into The Risk Of Constant Remakes
The Last Of Us Part 1 is the latest in a series of remakes that actively work to replace the original. While I don't hate how several of the characters in Part 1 look, when does a remake go too far?

In this video essay I break down what makes this game worth playing, and what makes me so hopeful for the future.

Undungeon Review
Undungeon is a Roguelite Action RPG developed by Laughing Machine with amazing visuals and outstanding story. If you like games where you're always at the edge of your seat then look no further. This is my Undungeon review where I cover the basics of what you need to know before you purchase this great indie game.
I want to put a disclaimer here, I tried to get a review code but I couldn't. So this is a review that comes after playing the newest demo 2 and a half times (which is about 30 hours with it), playing the other arena for a bit, and playing the games final release for 5 hours right up to just before the demo ended, and everything being roughly the same. This is a review solely for understanding if you'd should buy the game or not, I do not discuss any part of the ending, nor do I know anything about it.
