If you know me, you know I love to gripe about video game stories. More often than not, the emotions they try to convey fall flat, as if they feel forced and faked for some reason. Video game characters just don’t feel […]
Remember how I wrote about Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, and how somehow I keep playing those games? Yeah me neither so here’s a link. Suffice it to say after Syndicate, I did quit playing these repetitive map games. I did not play Origins, […]

I can’t remember the last time I wrote something about an Assassin’s Creed game. Thankfully, my blog and the wonderful people at TickCounter can: The last time Bert wrote about Assassin’s Creed Countup Boy, time flies, huh! In four-and-something years, the Assassin’s […]
