With elements of Pokemon, The 7th Saga, Super Mario Bros and even a little Dark Souls thrown in for good measure, Dragon Quest Treasures is an island hopping, booty finding good time.
In every From Software game there’s a moment where things click. In Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls, and Bloodborne, those moments were vague: a series of successes and failures that steadily taught me how to play. In Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, I still recall the exact moment everything clicked. His name was Genichiro. Genichiro is the…
Ever since Eduardo and I finished up Dark Souls 3 proper, we’ve been wondering what was in store for the game’s two expansions. The first, Ashes of Ariandel, landed last month, so of course the two of us got together to chat about it in-depth, as is tradition. Warning: Spoilers ahead. Callum: Out of all…
With the Dark Souls series having come to an end, plenty of developers are looking to fill that void. We’ve already seen a couple of Souls-likes this year, with DarkMaus and Salt and Sanctuary delivering top-down and side-scroller takes on From Software’s flagship franchise, but they’re hardly the last we’ll see in 2016. I saw…
Over the past several weeks, Eduardo and I have been talking a lot about Dark Souls 3. As the finale to the Dark Souls series and potentially the last of the Souls games entirely (though probably not), we had a lot of thoughts. As such, we decided to once more get together have another one…
Between having Dark Souls 2, Bloodborne, and Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin all come out in the past year, it feels awfully soon for another Souls game. And yet, here we are. Dark Souls 3 exists, for better or worse, and it’ll be out early next year. Going into our appointment, I was…
Throughout my time playing Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin, my stance on it constantly shifted. At one moment, I might think it a better version of Dark Souls 2, making all sorts of smart, small changes to streamline and improve the overall experience. And the next moment, I might think it a…
Bloodborne is such a huge game for Entertainium that we couldn’t just review it as we would normally do it. Callum and Eduardo are die hard fans of the ‘Souls series, and what better reason is there to do a co-op review than to have a look at From Software’s latest? There isn’t. Prepare for…
It’s only been a few months since Dark Souls 2 landed and already we’ve got another Souls-esque game to get excited about. Bloodborne comes from the creator of the Souls series himself, Hidetaka Miyazaki, developed in conjunction with Sony Japan. It is very much a Souls game, borrowing many of its design sensibilities, but only…
Within minutes of starting Dark Souls II, I fell to my death due to a poorly planned jump. Seconds later, I received an achievement titled, “This is Dark Souls,” rewarding me for my first death. In any other game, that would be nothing but a cheap gag: a cheeky achievement to laugh at then never…
