2017: The Year Of Bad Checkpointing
Bad saving can make good games a terrible experience. In 2017, Nier: Automata and Sonic Mania are prime offenders. However, games like Hyper Light Drifter and Cuphead show that some developers get it right.
The Dark Souls Letters Part 4: Dragons and Death
The original Dark Souls was my least favorite game in the venerable Souls series by a pretty wide margin. The reasons are numerous, but in a nutshell I just wanted to be done with it by the time I got to Gwyn. I was so aggravated that I skipped the Artorias of the Abyss DLC, which is regarded by many as the high point of the entire series. Being as obsessively completionist as I am about these games, I have to go back and take care of it before Dark Souls 3’s final expansion is released. I turned to GameCritics’ resident Dark Souls apologist Mike Suskie for guidance and counsel. The latest portion of our correspondence is below, with more updates to come as I progress through the game. Enjoy!
