My initial thoughts on Pillars of Eternity

Many of Kickstarter projects are based on nostalgia. So is the subject of todays post. Pillars of Eternity was called by Eurogamer "Baldur's Gate 3 that we never got". Is there any truth to this statement? It is, to some extent. This game is an interesting mix of elements, both oldschool and new. I'm not sure if I manage to squeeze enough time out of my schedule to write full review. That's why I wanted to give you at least my first impressions. So far they are positive.

Skyforge CBT first impressions

This is going to be post about my first impressions of Skyforge. And I mean that quite literally. First closed beta event lasted few days. Unfortunately because of health issues i got only 3 hours with the game. So don't expect deep analysis this time around. Skyforge has been on my radar since I've heard about it for the first time. Setting seems to be original, after all how often you get to be a god? Game is also first attempt at MMO genre by Obsidian Entertainment (it's being developed in cooperation with Allods Team) - RPG developer who's recent works I've enjoyed. So how was it?

Nosgoth: my baby steps into internet world of ownage

I had a certain problem with my gaming portfolio for a very long time. Most of my games required a lot of time so I didn't have a game that I could jump in for 15 minutes or less. Few months ago I've heard about Nosgoth. When open beta (mostly because I was bored at the time) I decided to check it out. And boy oh boy, it looks like I won't leave anytime soon.

(not so) Elite: (but very) Dangerous

I never was much interested in space sims. They were popular few years before i started playing video games. The same can be told about other kinds of simulators. Simply not my thing. This is why I was surprised just how much time I have sunk into Elite: Dangerous. Gaming sessions planned for two hours lasted six. I have bought the game last week and to my surprise it turned out to be incredibly addicting. Just before logging out you hear that little voice in your head whispering "just one more mission"... and you end up playing for next few hours. This is why i put together this post in hope that after reading you will give this game a chance.
