This Cantata preview is one of the more troublesome pieces I have ever written. On one hand, I like the game’s ~~~vibes~~~ and the art is great. On the other hand, I don’t know whether there’s enough meat on the mechanics to make it sustainably fun over a long time. And trust me, the game wants your time.

Hard West 2 | Preview in 7 Screenshots
Hard West really impressed me back in 2015. That’s why I was pleasantly surprised to have the Hard West 2 preview land in my lap. The question is whether the game would recapture some of the dark magic of the original.
Dune: Spice Wars Early Access | A delicate thing
Outside of mods, we haven’t had a Dune-based game since 2001. But the new movie adaptation makes it a lucrative time to get in on the Arrakis action. And it’s a good thing, too, as Shiro Games brings their Northgard experience to the front in Dune: Spice Wars, which just entered Early Access.

W40K: Battlesector – Necrons DLC review | Metallic zombies
I was disappointed when I first discovered that Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector would pit Blood Angels against the NPC race. However, with the developers being the same guys that gave BSG: Deadlock numerous great DLCs, I was hopeful. So let’s see how the Necrons DLC shakes out.

Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters preview | No Sororitas were harmed
From the moment I saw Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate, it enamored me. I craved for the quality of life of a modern sequel. I aspired to play the game with better visuals. Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters is that game – mostly.

World War 3 stress test | Tank supremacy in Warsaw
It was three years ago that I last (and first) looked at World War 3, probably the worst-named contender Battlefield series ever had. I think it may have died once or twice in the interim. However, last weekend’s stress test gave public (and me) the chance to take it out for a spin again.

WARNO Early Access | Preview in 7 Screenshots
WARNO announcement was rolled out so stealthily, you basically had to have entered the trailer’s link accidentally to spot it. Why would Eugen do it to it’s own successor to the Wargame franchise? With the Early Access out not a month later (and asking €30 from mortals), we can wager a guess: they knew it’s not ready.

Crossfire Legion | Preview in 7 Screenshots
CrossFire is one of the largest FPS games ever. Sure, it may not be popular in the Western countries, but there are far more gamers outside of those than in them. So I guess Crossfire Legion, ostensibly set in CrossFire universe, is for them.
