Remember Steam Greenlight? That was the user-voting system Valve briefly implemented to judge whether or not it would let a game release on its platform, before it just gave up and decided it’d put up what-the-hell-ever if you tossed it a hundred bucks. Greenlight wasn’t long for this world, but one of its earliest success…

It’s not immediately obvious how to save in Bloodliness 2, and boy it sucks (in the not fun vampire way) to lose your progress in a lengthy RPG. Even knowing that Bloodlines 2 was pivoting to a more action game style, it’s not the save system I expected, so fear not if you’re scratching your…
One of the biggest challenges you’ll face in Days Gone is taking on hordes of Freakers scattered across the map. These groups of legally distinct zombies come in various sizes, from a few dozen to a few hundred. Hordes are one of the best ways to raise your reputation with the various camp factions in…
