World Enveloped by Shadows in an Adventure So Unique With Elen Ring being so popular already, there is no doubt that this expansion has a lot to prove, and also, like every FromSoftware game, this one, too, tries to generate that feeling of attunement and spine-tingle within everyone. I can say that this game does not disappoint because the moment I set foot inside ‘The Realm of Shadow,’ I was still able to enjoy the sense of dread that set within me. Shadow of the Erdtree makes available the sobering and heart-pounding essence of the Elden Ring in the form of a 20-25-hour-long expedition. While The Lands Between may be larger, this one does not come without mysterious substances, dense lore, and compulsive challenges. Exploration feels intimate in this context, and every rubbled path offers something expectantly contorted and exquisite. It may be smaller than Lands Between, but don’t let that deceive you. All of this makes for an experience that is unparalleled. New Toys for New S...

Embracing the Gothic Grandeur: Cinematic Storytelling Without Substance I still feel the chill of Halloween night as I slogged across that blood-soaked field, every heartbeat in time with the demonic shriek ripping at my armor. DOOM: The Dark Ages markets itself as a more cinematic adventure, and my pulse raced at the thought of names and faces to anchor the chaos. But when the credits finally flickered, disappointment settled: we swapped cryptic lore pages for dull cutscenes that tease promise yet offer little more than an opening burst and a sketchy farewell.

Still, a few quick scenes light a fire. The lens hangs on the Slayer for just a heartbeat; he stops the attack, and a doubt glint that barely lasts crosses his eyes. None of these hints tie him to a heavy, sprawling backstory. They ...

Few shooters dare to don knightly armor while still firing up a first-person kill-a-thon. Titles that lean on castles and spells usually slide into action RPG or detailed simulation territory. A handful of respected outliers, however, earned the right to be called The Dark Ages ancestors: Hexen and Heretic (id Software/Raven Software) Well, begin with the family tree. Hexen and Heretic are DOOM's blood relatives-engine and sprite-sharing siblings draped in brooding fantasy. They swapped bullets for mana and miniguns for spikes and maces, yet the essentials never changed: labyrinthine key hunts, arena skirmishes, and that satisfying map-clearing rhythm. The new game seems to nod back to that heritage (DOOM 2016, DOOM: Eternal,...etc.), bringing in modern verticality and splatter while honoring the retro DNA. Hexen draped its magic over weaponry you could feel, but Doom: The Dark Ages keeps that bravado under a heavier plate. It doesn't push the fantasy as hard. Behind the kni...
