Make a game (not) a good one is a series of obiter dictum that discusses the good or bad in video games. Mind you, whilst some call this one ‘realism’, I prefer ‘authenticity’. But let’s not just leave it there, shall we go Dirt?
If I wasn’t a lazy thieving bastard and this wasn’t a shameless repost, the title would probably read: ‘Starcraft 2 Update Adds Progress Bars – T(w)oo!’. The difference? Blizzard’s trying to make your play richer, more tactical, and more rewarding. Frontier just want to give you a second job.
Ever since we first laid our hands on Legacy of the Void‘s outrageously fun co-op, we’ve been screaming for new maps. But Blizzard think quality before quantity and that’s awesome. Still, how about some Death Fleet now, hm, hm?
Some more interesting changes coming to StarCraft 2 with the latest patch than the usual balance changes and fixes. StarCraft 2: Legacy of the Void patch 3.3 adds mutators and mastery levels StarCraft 2: Legacy of the Void gets a shakeup with the latest title update. Two new features will be added to co-op missions: mutators and mastery levels.

Punctuation marks allowing, Elite: Dangerous: Horizons: Engineers: Beta is in full swing. Is it the Lord Saviour many have been holding their breath for? A bunch of crazy folk paid their own money to test drive it and tell us.
Warhammertime! Umm. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Like a horde of Orcs spat out from a London pub into Friday-night streets, an absolute onslaught of Warhammer games is coming at us this year and next. We already pinged one, but wait!
With Total War: Warhammer echoing just beyond the horizon, there’s also an ARPG thing called Inquisitor – Martyr. But wait!
Our favourite co-op brawler from the End Times universe, Vermintide, is getting new maps later this month, and Monsieur Totalbiscuit has brought us in on details from the until-then quite mysterious Eisenhorn: XENOS. But… nah, you’re done waiting. This is the big one here:

We got ourselves brutalised in some Starcraft 2 co-op, seen Ori re-embark once more on Definitive Edition of the awe-inspiring journey, and held a four-way holy-bloody-mess course in Left 4 Dead 2.
