Watch someone run through Dark Souls in under 90 minutes

It didn’t take long at all for a post-worthy run ofDark Soulsto make the rounds. Yeah, you might just want to save this for later (perhapsmuchlater) if you aren’t very far into the game yourself. At least for me, the sense of exploration — and, as a result, dread — is what appeals most. That, and being able to tell stories about your in-game conquests. Even if that story is merely a tale about how you were an efficient hero interested in only killing the big demons....

Wildermyth’s mix of procedural storytelling and tactics keeps me coming back for just one more chapter

Losing sleep to weave the legacy of generations Wildermythcan be a tough game to describe. It has a number of systems, all interlocking and affecting one another on various degrees. It’s got enough familiarity to its tactical combat and strategy meta-layer that it might be easier to fall back on the “X by way of Y” method of game description. It is an RPG, at its core. It takes some clear inspiration from tabletop role-playing games, except—at least in single-player mode—you play the whole party....
