Star Wars Outlaws: A Smuggler's Journey Through the Stars

Image
A Galaxy of Shadows and Secrets  There's an era within Star Wars Outlaws where you're floating through the sky with only the ship and you and a lone companion for the expanse of space. The universe sprawls out in front of you like a map of infinite possibilities However, don't let it fool you into thinking that this isn't an easy journey. The places you'll explore can be as treacherous as they are gorgeous as well. And if you're in the shoes of Kay Vess, you're not an eminent Jedi or noble heroic figure. It's a crime, and the galaxy follows its own laws. Right from the beginning, Star Wars Outlaws makes it clear it's not The Star Wars of legends and lightsabers. This is the dark underbelly, those dark corners, where trades are negotiated in whispers, and having a blaster on your side is just as important as the air that you breathe. Kay's novel isn't about defending the galaxy, but rather the process of surviving. Let me be the first to sa

EA Sports FC 25: Rediscovering the Beautiful Game in Detail

As a gym professor, I have spent years watching and studying the beautiful game from its sidelines for my students (and myself). I am bringing the same passion and expertise to online gaming, and playing EA Sports FC 25 with a critical eye is important, as it lets others learn about it before spending the hard gained cash. These yearly releases are quite concerning - they feel like a yearly subscription rather than a new game (as we are charged). Recently though, thanks to EA Sports FC 25's release, I've become immersed in another kind of pitch: virtual. With it coming alive before my very eyes allowing me to experience it from every imaginable angle! Ultimate Team: Ever-Expanding, Ever Familiar Ah,  Ultimate Team —the notorious leviathan of  EA Sports FC , a mode that inspires equal parts devotion and disdain. With each release, Ultimate Team becomes a larger spectacle, and  EA Sports FC 25  is no exception. In a world where microtransactions are the underlying pulse of the

Alone in the Dark: Psychological Concepts at Play

Image
Alone in the Dark brings this age-old horror trope of human control being lost over supernatural forces they attempt to manipulate into a modern context. Instead of just scaring away players with demons swarming through an old mansion's hallways and rooms, these demons represent humanity's hubris in attempting to play god and controlling forces they don't understand fully enough; acting as warning about seeking knowledge beyond one's grasp - an idea reinforced by haunted mansion filled with cursed artifacts and ancient books which is testament to this message of caution: as humans' dark desires come back and haunt them both literally and metaphorically! Edward Carnby or Emily Hartwood? Player avatar Edward Carnby or Emily Hartwood finds themselves immersed in an environment in which reality seems tenuous; strange occurrences, haunting visions, and an oppressive sense of doom fill every room of Derceto Mansion; similar disorientations mirror how its characters expe

Star Wars Outlaws (PS5) Review

Image
Among the things I like in  Star Wars Outlaws is the world-building, an intricate and interwoven tapestry drawing heavily on the vast Star Wars lore. The story takes place between  the events of The Empire is Striking Back in the series and  Return of the Jedi . A time that is filled with conflict and tension, as well as the ever-increasing pressure that is the Empire. The period was explored through a range of different media but  Star Wars Outlaws explores the dark side, which is a part of the galaxy that is often hinted at, yet rarely thought about.
