The Ascent | PS4 Review

In what could possibly be one of the most awe inspiring blends of sci-fi, and cyberpunk I have ever witnessed "The Ascent" boldly does what a lot of games in the genre don't. It is a large scale isometric cyberpunk looter shooter RPG that takes place in what could best be described as a living and breathing industrialized world. The story itself unfolds in an intergalactic hub for corporations called Veles where travel weary indentured servants come to earn a living at the expense of freedom. In a way it's a blend of the story of corporate America done up with a Star Wars-like lore. Every square inch of it's metallic & rusty infrastructure is adorned with a bustling busy body of workers of various species, and alignments. All of which are individually a part of the chain of command. From the top all the way down to the grunts. Much like America the species in this action adventure act as races, and the hierarchy within reflective of the upper, middle, and lower classes. Ultimately adding a realism to the applied layers of fiction. 

Story-wise, as a hired hand for an unsavory alien taskmaster known as Poone it is your job to clean up the mess caused by a corporations downfall. What's at stake is the very lives of those on Veles who depend upon their paychecks to get by. That, and the vital supplies provided by the corporate bigwigs. Something that the citizens of Veles are as much a slave to as the corporations themselves ...

Young Souls | PS4 Review

Coming at you like a colorful 90's cartoon for adult children "Young Souls" pulls no punches in aspiring to be a multi-genre action game of proper blend. This arcadey brawler with fighting game mechanics, and RPG elements presented in a light Soulsborne fashion transcends the realm of humans and takes a deep dive into the cavernous world of goblins. Through the eyes of twins Jenn and Tristan we discover a fantastical world hidden just below the surface. A world of war torn goblin species discovered by their father-like professor. A man of educational renown who acts as a mediator between human, and goblin kind in a geo-political sense. Unsuspecting of the secretive goings on of the professor's work Jenn and Tristan stumble haphazardly upon his portal to the goblin world after realizing he'd been kidnapped from their home. Filled with teenage angst, and a devil may care attitude the pink haired duo jumps head first into an otherworldly adventure that might be more than the two of them can handle ...
