I Changed My Mind, I Like Cal Kestis Now

I recently wrote aboutCal Kestis being one-note in Jedi: Fallen Order– I thought Respawn had made a valiant effort to represent trauma through Cal, but it was a swing and a miss. Fallen Order’s backstory does most of the work in giving Cal any personality at all, and the game itself doesn’t give him a chance to shine. I’m delighted to say Jedi: Survivor has made him far more likeable, and in fact, he might be one of my current favourite video game protagonists right now, alongside Ellie fromThe Last of Us....

Most Players Have No Idea What's Actually Impressive About The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom

Videos ofThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomhave been going viral every day over on Twitter, and the things that impress me as a player are never the same things that impress actual game developers. I was amazed when I saw someonedeploy an aircraft that launched killer drones which infiltrated a bokoblin skull hideout, killing them all with laser beams. But developers are consistently most impressed by things that don’t seem that special at first, like theshrine which tasks the player with welding a suspension bridge to a pair of wheels then sending it across a lava pool to create a walkable pathway....

Pikmin 4 Preview

I’ve never been able to get over how messed upPikminis. You crash-land on an alien planet and within minutes have enslaved a race of adorable little creatures to murder the local wildlife, pillage resources, and even throw themselves into the inevitable jaws of death if it ensures the survival of the Hocotatians. Olimar is a monster. There’s a morbid charm to exploring a new world that imitates Earth, shrunk down to the size of an ant as we’re free to explore overcrowded back gardens and luscious beaches in search of treasures and trinkets....

Pikmin Hasn't Sold Well Because Players Find It Too Difficult, Says Miyamoto

Shigeru Miyamotoreflects on the relatively poorer sales of thePikminseries, at least when compared to otherNintendoproperties. Speaking as the most recent instalment,Pikmin 4, launches onSwitch, Miyamoto suggests that previous titles haven’t sold as well as hoped because Nintendo’s audience finds them too difficult. Miyamoto hypothesises that much of this difficulty stems from the fact that it’s easy for Pikmin to die, but defends the decision to include this anyway, saying that this “relationship with mortality” is key to Pikmin’s message....
