Thief Gold

If it weren't for my friend Connor introducing me to this game, I would have never looked up reviews for it and found one of my favorite youtubers. Thief Gold is a great stealth game with a dark fantasy meets steam punk setting that captures your mind as you play through the levels. The game does an amazing job of sprinkling lore throughout gameplay.

Fantastic little demo, it captures the gameplay and dark fantasy atmosphere of the Thief games to a great effect, as well showcasing plenty of its own unique style and gameplay mechanics.

This is a rating of the demo that is out for this game, not the full release because it is not out yet as of today. I quite like the ideas that are presented in this little hour-long demo for the game. The imagery that attempts to depict how sentient rodents and other small creatures would build a society in our world is fairly entertaining, and cute. But what I find even more interesting is how this game depicts humans and other carnivorous species as these larger-than-life gods, who exceed the small creatures understanding of the world. It portrayed in a sort of Lovecraftian sense, particularly for the hazmat suit human (referred to as the yellow god). I do however wish the game had more to do and look at besides the main storyline, because when I attempted to look around in the one hub world, it was incredibly lacking in anything to do besides one item, and some admittedly interesting and fun books in the library. This is likely due it still being developed, but I do think adding sidequests, or even varying different stores and characters akin to how the Paper Mario series would help greatly in fleshing out this world. Overall, good demo, would recommend.
Nocturne
Nocturne
★ ★ ★ ★ 1/2

A beautiful fusion of horror's many fantastic hallmarks. The harsh shadows, spooky mansions, the Dutch angles (the fucking Dutch angles), and of course the MONSTERS!! Vampires, werewolves, goblins, and ghouls, this game has it all. With each chapter, these elements are doused with the fedoras, trench coats, and genocidal tendencies of noir films.
BloodRayne

★ ★ ★ ★

Doesn't have as much of an interesting
world or characters like Nocturne, but overall it brings me a joy in a b-movie sort of way. Rayne is an awesome character with so much wit and goofy edginess, reminds me a lot of Nimona from the new movie. Also her sucking on enemies has definitely bred a new kink ;)
