2019 Was The Year Of Developer Vs. Consumer (But 2020 Can Be Better)

Even if you dislike the gameplay presented in this title, the amount of genuine passion present makes this game such a treat to play, finally nailing the feeling of Star Wars that fans haven’t seen in arguably a dec

Observant and sensitive to others, ESFPs are showmen who love to put on a show. Gibraltar is a defensive shield for his friends and an absolute unit to use against the enemy. Two of his abilities are shields to protect his squad in battle or during recovery, but he does have a crazy weapon up his sle

Likely one of the most decried and frequently debated adjustments that Respawn’s made to the Apex formula is introducing skill-based matchmaking (or SBMM) to the casual, everyday “Play Apex” mode of p

Rumors of a PVE mode for Apex Legends have been lurking in the fan community for some time now, and players are quick to leap at any obscure leak or unused code that might imply as much being on the hori

In fact, plenty of games EA has published are highly regarded by the gaming community. We don’t have to look far back to see this, either. Games like Titanfall and Mass Effect have given gamers hundreds of hours of enjoyment from their amazing worlds or satisfying combat. Here are the 10 best games EA has published in the last decade, starting from 2010 till the current y

This is more than slightly puzzling considering the Ranked Leagues mode exists for the purpose of highly competitive & skill-based play, and there’s been no shortage of fan pushback since its implementat

As a writer, Hagopian may have entered the world of battle royale games unsure of his purpose. But given the tremendous amount of fan support for Apex Legends over the last year, one would hope he has fully realized his purpose by

INTJs are creative yet strategic thinkers who prefer to know exactly what is going on before they act. With Bloodhound’s abilities, they can form perfect strategies based on enemy location and act accordin

The behavior was so out of line that Respawn CEO Vince Zampella needed to bite the bullet and issue a formal apology on behalf of the company. The unprofessional behavior is a perfect example for other developers on how not to interact with a player b

But what’s interesting is how Apex Legends is able to present itself as both a character showcase and a plot-driven narrative, using the battle royale concept as the story framework. Keep in mind how impressive this is in an era where some question whether games should bother to include narrative at

Revenant’s final ability is his powerful ultimate, Death Totem. This allows his squad a finite amount of “immortality” as it only allows for their health to be depleted and when it would be completely depleted they will be teleported to the location of the to

Players have been particularly outspoken concerning its problematic loot distribution and the prevalence of wide, open, and consequentially boring spaces to battle in. Wherever Respawn takes us next, we’re hoping they took some notes concerning what didn’t work with World’s E

Battlefield titles combine fast-paced infantry combat with a wide array of vehicles for players to use, leading to interesting engagements that few games can compare to. How can you add to that form

In my own experience, outside of competitive play, it almost seems as though players’ mains reflect aspects of their real-life identities. That’s not to say that all Revenant mains are evil people. However, they may, for example, see themselves as having a dark side they can express through this charac

Whether as a new, paired weapon or a hop-up modification for existing weapons (with the Mozambique being a frequent suggestion), dual-wielding has been a feature players have petitioned for over a considerable length of t

Infinity Ward shook the world forever with its release of Call of Duty back in 2003. They did it again with their modern rendition aptly named Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in 2007. Respawn , composed of many of the developers from Infinity Ward all of those years ago, has created yet another phenomenal campaign in Titanfall

ESFJs are responsible folks who love supporting their friends and thrive off of their efforts; considering that Lifeline is the closest thing to a support character, Lifeline is perfect for them. Lifeline may not be particularly strong or weak in battle, but she is essential to a healthy recovery between skirmis

World’s Edge isn’t the worst map, all things considered, and it’s been a pretty fresh change of scenery after two entire seasons spent picking apart King’s Canyon. However, it has already grown a bit stale, and does possess its fair share of glaring iss

The newly released character of Apex Legends _ is the deadly assassin, Revenant. Revenant provides avid _Apex Legends strategy players with a stealth-oriented playstyle that reinforces elusive players to find even more success in the game. The titular character for Apex’s season 4, Revenant is both an aesthetically appealing design while providing some meta shifting gameplay implications to the Online landscape.
