I wrote about my experiences with the game, Dark Souls, up to the point where I played through it a second time up to the point when I ragequit the first. You can catch up on my adventures so far here. Because the post was getting long, I decided to end it and start a… Continue Reading

Dark Souls: Why I Keep Playing This Game, Part Two
In my last post, I wrote about my feelings the first time I tried to play Dark Souls. I encourage you to read it before reading this post, which will be about my experience the second time around. I’m currently nearly halfway done with the game, so I expect I will write more posts on… Continue Reading
Dark Souls, Part One: It Has a Hold on Me
Editor’s Note: I have been obsessed with Dark Souls for the past month or so and am trying to figure out why. To that end, I’ve started two series on it–one that is about my experiences playing the game and one that is about how I feel about the game in general. There’s overlap, of course,… Continue Reading

Toxicity Within the Gaming Culture: An Outsider’s Observation

Quick Bites: Cook, Serve, Delicious Review – It’s Scrumptious!
I was aware of Cook, Serve, Delicious (which shall be known as CSD for the rest of the post) way before I ever bought it. It was supposed to be a hardcore cooking sim, and all the reviews I read emphasized how hard it was. Now, I like my cooking games, but I like them casual. If I’m… Continue Reading
Quick Bites: Nuclear Throne – A Damn Addictive Game
There’s a little game that is still in Early Access on Steam that was given to me by Ian and that I didn’t touch when I first got it because it scared me. It’s called Nuclear Throne, and it took every ounce of my gaming mettle to fire up this game. I had watched Northernlion… Continue Reading
I’m Just a Girl…Gamer
I didn’t grow up playing video games. At least that’s what I said when I first talked about them with my close friend, Ian. However, the more we talked, the more I realized I had played video games early in life. Pitfall!, Pong, Space Invaders, to name a few. Later, as a teen, whenever I was… Continue Reading
