RPG Codex – GOTY 2023

RPG Codex recently declared their Game of the Year through forum member voting, and to the surprise of many, Baldur’s Gate 3 didn’t actually win like they have been doing everywhere else. Jagged Alliance 3 of all games won it, with Baldur’s Gate 3 coming second, and Colony Ship: A Post-Earth Role Playing Game coming third.

Halo TV show: Episode 3, season 2

Boy, can it get worse? Probably. At least in this episode, they acknowledge that Master Chief is just a grunt, and should not have any kind of special knowledge, or privilege from Fleetcom.

Finally, Obsidian released something more substantial than a few screens of their upcoming RPG Avowed in the form of a game trailer, and a deep-dive. And what can I say? Well, I can’t say that I feel any kind of hype whatsoever, since going by the footage presented it looks like a fantasy version of The Outer Worlds. That game was one of the biggest disappointments coming from Obsidian Entertainment ever, considering some legendary names were attached to it, like Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky.
