We’ve spoken before about the history of RPGs that let you romance your companions and how those relationships are often found in some of the deepest role-playing experiences. Well, it shouldn’t surprise you to learn that Baldur’s Gate 3 offers quite a few romance options. However, it may surprise you to learn that the very
This Star Wars article contains spoilers. When Morgan Elsbeth was first introduced in The Mandalorian, we knew that her people had been massacred during the Clone Wars. In the episode “Chapter 13: The Jedi,” Ahsoka tells Din Djarin that Elsbeth “survived, and let her anger fuel an industry which helped build the Imperial Starfleet. She
Graham Hughes’ (pictured above) found footage sci-fi horror Hostile Dimensions sees two documentary filmmakers – Sam and Ash – deciding to investigate the disappearance of a graffiti artist who has seemingly ‘vanished’. However, as they delve deeper into their research, they encounter an ominous freestanding door which leads them on a dark journey through the dimensions
This article contains spoilers for the RIVERDALE series finale. Riverdale season 7 gave our characters a fresh slate in the 1950’s, embracing their “classic Archie Comics counterparts.” However, in the penultimate episode, they all finally got their good memories back from Angel Tabitha (Erinn Westbrook) with only Jughead (Cole Sprouse) and Betty (Lili Reinhart) choosing
For nearly 30 years, Bethesda has been pushing the limits of the RPG genre. Though Bethesda has developed and produced a number of great games across numerous genres, their name will always be synonymous with titles like The Elder Scrolls and Fallout. As the studio prepares to unleash its latest RPG epic, Starfield, on the
This article contains spoilers through Only Murders in the Building season 3 episode 4. If you’re like us, you’re neck-deep in Only Murders in the Building theories with almost half of season 3 already completed. This season’s victim, Ben Glenroy (Paul Rudd), appeared to have died twice in the season opener, and both the trio
SFF legend Adrian Tchaikovsky is back next year with thrilling, far-future adventure Alien Clay and not only are we delighted to be exclusively sharing the otherworldly cover (above) but we’re also giving you a sneak peek into the novel! We’re good to you lot aren’t we… But first, check out the official synopsis for Alien
This Star Wars: Ahsoka article contains spoilers. There’s never been a Star Wars show quite as jam-packed with easter eggs and references as Ahsoka, which is not just pulling from The Mandalorian-era shows but also two animated series and even one of the most celebrated Expanded Universe novels of all time. It’s easily the most
In my other life, I am an Ancient History lecturer at a UK university, which means I am often giving my students recommendations for films and TV shows to watch about Ancient Rome. None of them are especially historically accurate (a totally historically accurate film would probably be a boring film) but as long as
“A lot of my nightmares growing up were about clowns,” Zelda Adams reveals when we ask her about her new movie, Where The Devil Roams, “especially after I watched season four of American Horror Story!” We’re feeling you Zelda – clowns and carnivals are a staple in the horror genre, and Where The Devil Roams
Warning: contains spoilers for Mad Men season four. Everything about Ida Blankenship is a punchline. From the spilt Scrabble tiles clatter of her name, to her gravelly voice and chewed-on Brooklyn vowels, to the old lady wig and post-cataract lenses used to age up and disguise the glamour of actor Randee Heller, the Mad Men character exists purely as
While picking a class is a vital part of most role-playing games, Baldur’s Gate 3 takes that classic genre concept to a new level. Well, to be more accurate, it really just taps into the tabletop depth of the class concept, but by doing so, it makes picking a class as difficult as it has
The Bloomquist Brothers – Erik and Carson – (She Came From The Woods) are back with another horror this summer as their political slasher Founders Day heads to London for its international premier at the UK’s top horror festival, FrightFest. The movie sees a small town shaken by a series of ominous killings in the
Six seasons and a movie! Before Community made that phrase its mantra, it belonged to Star Trek… sorta. The release of The Motion Picture vindicated fans of The Original Series, who only grew in number after the show’s cancellation after three seasons in 1969. So successful were those films that the Star Trek: The Next
MGM+’s new series about King Arthur, The Winter King, is based on a trilogy of novels by well known historical novelist Bernard Cornwell, author of the Sharpe books. Cornwell’s historical fiction is always well-researched. But just how “historical” is King Arthur in the first place? People have been telling stories about King Arthur for centuries,
When Stranger Things season 4 concluded its feature-length final episode in July 2022, the show’s characters seemed ready to roll right into the their fifth and final season. The newly-revealed big bad Vecna a.k.a. Henry Creel a.k.a. Number One (Jamie Campbell Bower) had been stopped but not fully defeated. The ultimate battle for Hawkins, Indiana
You couldn’t make something like SM:TV Live these days. For starters, Saturday morning kids’ TV is barely a thing any more, cancelled entirely on the soon-to-be-nixed CITV channel, while over on the BBC, it’s relegated to the decidedly more wholesome Saturday Mash-Up Live on CBBC. Perhaps this is because – deep down – everyone knows
Though Baldur’s Gate 3 elevates itself above even otherwise all-time great RPGs in many ways, I found the game’s companion system to be one of its most consistently engaging features. Yes, we’ve seen companions in many other RPGs, but we’ve rarely seen this many exceptional companions that are this well-developed over the course of a
It’s well-established cultural lore that the 1990s are of mythical importance to many Gen-Xers and even some millennials. But why though? Was it the relatively strong economy? Preponderance of the color teal? Or even just the fact that the ’90s was the last decade to seem like its own distinct thing before new millennium turned
Last week, we took a look at some of the worst things about retro gaming and some of the ways we should remind ourselves that not everything was better back when. However, the fact of the matter is that I can’t be too negative about retro gaming for too long. I’m as nostalgic as anyone
The UK’s top scare bonanza, FrightFest, returns to London for its 24th edition on Thursday August 24 – Monday 28 August 2023 and the festival always attracts not only some of the top horror movies we’re going to be excited about for the coming year, but all aspects of the filmmaking community. This year, members
This Star Trek: Strange New Worlds article contains spoilers. Prequel cameos are always tricky storytelling gambits. When done right, they can thrill fans with a shiver of recognition. When done wrong, it can feel cheap and sentimental, like almost everything with baby Leia in Obi-Wan Kenobi. But against all odds, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
This article is part of our Collector’s Digest series powered by: Roughly speaking, comic book shared universe continuity didn’t really take hold until 1961. Right before Marvel had Spider-Man swinging through the world outside the Fantastic Four’s windows, the folks at DC decided to put all of their Flashes in the same book with The
At their core, tabletop games are very different beasts from video games. Many try to fill the same niche by giving players tons of customization options to make them feel like they’re stepping into their character’s shoes, but at the end of the day, their respective rulesets form an impassable barrier. No matter how much
Director: Maximilian Erlenwein Writer: Maximilian Erlenwein, Joachim Hedén Cast: Sophie Lowe, Louisa Krause “I still get a bit nervous every time,” says Drew (Sophie Lowe), about to step off a narrow jetty into the sea for a cave dive. “Lucky you,” replies her sister May (Louisa Krause), “Nervous is good. Excitement’s a good thing.” May
Star Wars is back on Disney+! Well, it’s about to be, with the brand new Lucasfilm series Ahsoka just days away from streaming. Ahsoka will see the return of former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) after she was last glimpsed in live-action during the second season of The Mandalorian and its spinoff series, The Book of Boba
2023 has produced quite a few excellent games, but few have wowed quite like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The game was immediately hailed as a masterpiece and was shaping up to be a shoo-in for “Game of the Year.” But then came Baldur’s Gate 3. Not only is this game an
Depp v. Heard, Netflix‘s latest docuseries about the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial falls victim to a common documentarian fallacy. It mistakes editorial balance for truth. In an interview with Variety, Depp v. Heard director Emma Cooper describes her approach to the series thusly: “My intention, right from the start, was to make a
Nothing looms larger in The Who’s artistic mythology than Pete Townshend’s unfinished “Lifehouse” project, a science fiction rock opera motion picture guaranteed to rock the world. Granted, we wouldn’t have Who’s Next (1971) if he completed it, but we can only imagine what the final product might have been on the big screen. Fortunately, there
